I was 14 and had a crush on my friends sister who invited me to New Kids on The Block. Of course I went but nothing ever happened with the friends sister

And now you are stuck with the memory of NKOTB...eww

Not really. It was 30 years ago so I am good. I have had many great concerts since then to bleach my mind from NKOTB.

Limp Bizkit, Helmet, and Korn played at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago in 1997 or 1998. I was 17 or 18.

George Clinton and Pfunk All Stars 1998. I was not much into going to concerts, ever, but in freshman year college roommate told me to go with him to this one. I forget who opened for them, obviously.

My first one was Van Halen, which is also my all-time favorite band. The whole night was awesome but I kept waiting for Jump and they never played it. They went off stage and I was kinda disappointed but then they came back out (I was young and it was my first show - I knew nothing of an encore) and absolutely killed it with that song.

Best night ever!

I've been to somewhere around 120 concerts at this point and I still remember how awesome that moment was when I thought they were some and then hears that opening keyboard.
