    The 1977 KISS concert in Indianapolis at Market Square Arena December 11, 1977. AC/DC was the opening act, I was 10. I have no idea what my mom and dad were thinking letting me go with a friend to Indy on a greyhound bus to spend the day, but tickets and have the friend's grandmother pick us up after the show. It all worked out, I had an amazing time, but WTF lol.
    Dodd - Battery Preamp
    Monarchy Audio SE100 Delux - mono power amps
    Sony DVP-NS999ES - SACD player

    DIY Stereo Subwoofer towers w/(4) 12 drivers each
    Crown K1 - Subwoofer amp
    Outlaw ICBM - crossover

    My first was Queen in Frankfurt, Germany in 1977.
    Saw them two more times, in Frankfurt, after that.

    We got so hammered from a bodda bag filled with vodka and lemonade, at the first one, that I didn’t remember the concert.

    My first concert was Kiss at the Farm Show Arena in Harrisburg, PA in 1975. I was in Jr. High School and it was awesome! I was in like 9th grade. We went with my best friend's older brother and we were wasted beyond our years. They had barbed wire around the stage to keep people off it. I remember people were throwing bags of weed onto the stage and I thought to myself as a young punk, man I could really use one of those bags!

    We now know Gene Simmons wasn't scooping up all those bags but I bet Ace sure was!

    After that, I attended every concert I could afford to go to (and there were a lot back then). I remember when the Stones came to Philadelphia I sold just about everything I owned (including my stereo cabinet) to buy tickets for both shows and "supplies" to go along with them. lol ;)

    Those were the days man!

    Ozzy Osbourne March 1982 Dane County Colosseum in Madison Wisconsin. It was right before Randy Rhodes died in the plane crash in Florida so I got to see I see one of Randy Rhodes‘s last concerts.
