It's kind of like your first love, you never forget it.  What was the first concert that you ever attended?

I saw the James Gang and Johnny Winter at the Springfield Civic Center in 1974.  I remember being mesmerized by the entire atmosphere, the crowd, the smoke, the girls, the loudness of the bands, and the rock and roll.  I still remember the local radio announcer introducing the James Gang, and thought that I'd like to do that someday.

In my high school years I saw tons of bands come to Springfield.  The J. Geils Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Marshall Tucker, Deep Purple, Peter Frampton, Jethro Tull, Aerosmith, 38 Special and more.  But, I'll always remember the first one the most!

What was your first concert?

Call me in the studio and let me know, at 991-9713!  Or hit me up on the I95Rocks Facebook page, and I may play a song by that artist for you today during "A Whole Lotta Lunch!"
