When I was about 14 I went to Michael Jackson concert in the Amsterdam Arena. The only thing I remember about, that there was a lot of fire and smoke.

Quiet Riot... an all chick band called Girl's School opened for them. Must have been in the early 80's.

 

[Mubbers]

My first was Hawkwind in 1985(ish)

My most recent and possibly best was The Sisters of Mercy at Glasgow Barrowlands last year.

My most wierd was Tangerine dream in the late 80's - that was reallly strange!

 

[Mubbers]

Actually all these replies indicate quite a span in the age of our fellow users.

I'm guessing from teens to forties!

Or even older...

[Mubbers]

Nope honestly I just did the sums (pretty sad eh!) - I have just looked at the pics though and I reckon I'm gonna do pretty well!!!

Did you spot the deliberate mistake?
