    I'm curious to know what everyone's first concert was and was it enjoyable? How how finding parking and getting to your seat etc.

    Mine was amazing! I saw P!nk in the Tacoma Dome on September 3rd 2024 she's one of my favorite singers I grew up listing to here music, classic hits like So What, Raise Your Glass, Stupid Girls and all her other songs. I think I originally bought a ticket in October 2023 but the concert got delayed.

    I had to wait which sucked! But when the time was near let's just say the ride to the Tacoma Dome was long and horrible my dad was taking me and had to pull over a few times because I get really car sick easy. When he got close there was a line of cars that never seemed to move, I just got out of the car onto the sidewalk and started running while yelling "I'M NOT MISSING THIS!" for those wondering m dad had fun playing pool at a bar while I was rocking out. Anyways I got inside found my seat and omg!!!

    It was a party! Singing and I was dancing not alone but with everybody in my row, some older woman even grabbed me and started swing dancing with me!:coolrim:
    But about P!nk? I saw her on screen or zipping through the air mostly but she was beautiful I've never had so much fun.:plead: By the end I had lost my voice and legs felt like jelly but boy was I hype for the whole car ride home! That mood was ruined when I got car sick a few hours into the drive and well... Yeah. But all and all it was the best night ever!

    Please tell me about yours.
     
    I'm not one for the traditional, loud concert scene. The closest thing to a "concert" I've been to (besides musical performers at anime conventions) was an acoustic performance by 80's singer Richard Marx, who I saw sometime around 2009 or 2010.

    It was held at a performing arts theater with assigned seating so finding your place to sit wasn't an issue. The show was pretty low-key, but it didn't hurt my eardrums either. And even nearly two decades after his heyday, Richard still had an incredible singing voice.

    So yeah, it wasn't your traditional concert experience, but I enjoyed it exactly because of that.
     
    The first ever concert I ever been to was the Backstreet Boys during their Black and Blue world tour back in 2000 or 2001. I was about 8 or 9 at the time.
     
    I've never actually been to a concert. The closest I've been to a concert was watching the Youtube live stream of my favorite DJs (Hardcore TANO*C) performing their sets on their yearly summer tour in Japan. One of my favorite singers at the moment (Ado) is touring in my hometown over the summer and I'm genuinely considering getting tickets to it.

    You SUPER should if you think you're able to! Going to the real deal in person is just something completely different.

    The first concert I remember going to was all the way back in I think 2007 when I saw My Chemical Romance. Absolutely amazing show (especially as it was on the Black Parade tour, iconic album!).
    I am positive there are others before that, but I cannot remember the details enough to be able to confirm properly right now.
     
    Due to my ears being so sensitive, I haven't been to many concerts. I went to a couple in 2011 and haven't been to anything non-classical since.

    My first concert was Streetlight Manifesto. Ironically one of the loudest bands I listen to (the vast majority of music I listen to is soft lol). I went with a friend who had introduced me to the band. I very much enjoyed the concert!
