Fun question, nothing to do with current events.

First concert could have been The Monkees (1965, Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix) or James Brown, I think in PHX or LA. They were in the same general time period; JB may have been 1st.

Tho the memory is kind of fuzzy as to chronology of things from when I was 14-15 yrs old, I remember what I wore to the Monkees concert: A a dark red & navy print "granny dress," my wire rim "granny glasses" (so cool!) and dark red suede ballet flats with a little strap across the instep. Loved fashion trends back in the day, not so much any more.

My family lived 25 minutes outside NYC. From 1968-1971 my friends and I went into the city almost every weekend to the Fillmore East. Tickets were about $7 to see three bands. I can't remember who I saw first but the ones I can't forget are The Doors, Jimi Hendrix,Fleetwood Mac, The Band, Eric Clapton,Janis Joplin, Zeppelin, Steppenwolf. I'm so lucky, just amazing times looking back on it. The music still stands up today.
