Woo! Just came back from my first gig I've ever been to, just seen Disturbed playing at Astoria London- and it absolutely rocked, i've never had so much fun in my life you can practically push people around and act like a maniac and get away with it

See crappy attched mobile phone pictures

What was your first gig like?

I went to my first concert this summer, which was also Disturbed, they're ****in wild in person aren't they? Hehehe, so intense. I'm not really one to mashpit, I'm more of a headbanger.

Morpheus and I went to see many bands, including Apocalyptica and Sonata Arctica at this years "Ilosaari Rock" festival.

Twas my first gig.

The festival, combined with spending 9 days with a close friend in a beautiful country with hot women, was the best time of my life.

My first was my favorite band, incubus. It rocked hardcore.

Disturbed was on the bill at the first concert I ever went to, along with Godsmack and Stone Temple Pilots, as well. It was a great show.

Meat Beat Manifesto at the GAMH in San Francisco. It was wicked sick hardcore awesome. They had great video they were editing live in sync with the music, it was fun and crazy cool.

First gig I went to was the Big Day Out quite a few years ago. It was good and bad, good because The Living End, Powderfinger, and Ash rocked, but bad because it was full of Korn and Marilyn Manson loving weirdos.

Quite nice, except for the rain

My first concert was a free Less Than Jake concert in the middle of the day in a huge Boston public park. It was sooooo awesome. My most recent was Flogging Molly, Goldfinger, and The Vandals. Also freaking awesome, but it was seated which is not very much fun.

can't remember my first gig, used to go to loads when I was younger (once you pass the bouncers on the door, the bar won't ID you! :p). saw alot of Rachel Stamp, who I doubt anyone will have heard of. I saw them supporting Cheap Trick at the Astoria once, we got in to the after party, there were huge black dustbins full of ice and cans of beer for the taking, much fun! Also saw Less Than Jake at the Astoria - ended up on stage, apparently made a brief appearance on MTV, though I never saw it.

You doubt wrong.

when disturbed and kitty came to ottawa the line up was almost a kilometre long for a venue that held a couple thousand people.
i've been to about 100 concerts. i've seen about 200 bands. nothing beats live music.

First gig was probably Notkea Rotta (Limber Rat) at the (now defunct) Stella Star Club in Helsinki. Notkea Rotta is my (half-)brother's cousin, he invited me along, we were on "the list" so we got in free of charge. 'Twas fun. Not really a fan of the genre, but it's all tongue-in-cheek and played for laughs anyhow. Plus, what's not to like about a guy in a hoodie running around the stage with a plastic carnival rat nose and a huge jock-strap?

Best event that I've been to was the Roskilde Rock festival in Denmark in 2004. Iggy Pop, Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Fiery Furnaces, TV on the Radio, Ben Harper, Luke Vibert, DJ Krush, Jamie Lindell, Basement Jaxx, Lali Puna, Sigur Ros, Gnawa Diffusion, Baba Zula, Fatboy Slim etc.

Am I down with the sickness?

No.

i used to want to be a rock band photographer, until i realized that all rock show pictures look exactly the same, except with different people in them.

you should come with me to a show as a Rock band photographer so I can get back stage >.>

Plus, then I can use your cameras or something.

I went to Nine Inch Nails on Tuesday... it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen/heard in my entire life.

My first one was Rammstein. Was FREAKING AWESOME.

My first was Alter Bridge last May. It was surprisingly underwhelming.
