I seen the Cure on the Distegration tour at the Summit in 89 or 90. I had my Patrik Swazye mullet rocking.
Anyone went to the Texas Jam at Rice Stadium? It was Kingdom Come, Metallica, Dokken, Scorpions, and Van Halen/Hagar. Metallica just got Jason Newstead in the band. The black album wasn't out yet. So they played all there good songs from the first 3 albums. Scorpions stole the show they were in their prime.
Also caught UFO last few times with Vinnie Moore on guitar. It was awesome. Seen Michael Schenker too,cool show!
Any you older folks seen Thin Lizzy? Wish I did! Checked em out on youtube.They kick ass!

My very first real "rock concert" was Humble Pie and Jo Jo Gunne in the Sam Houston Coliseum, and I've been going ever since. Check out http://rockinhouston.com/ for an incredible archive of pix from concerts in Houston (and few elsewhere).

Some of my most memorable were:

Led Zeppelin (Coliseum and Summit)

First and most memorable were 2. Def Leopard and Michael Bolton. I was young,a nd my big sister took me. I almost fainted with Def Leopard, cause they were the it factor back then!

August 4, 1968 Sam Houston Col. The Jimi Hendrix Experience Tour - freaking fantastic! Oh the back up bands were Traffic with Stevie Windwood and Chicago!

The best, other than Hendrix, was Stevie Ray Vaugh who walked into a small club (500 people) in Longbeach and jammed for 3 hours.

The Righteous Brothers in mid 1965 at the old Houston Coloseum.

Hmmmmnnn.....good question....

First rock concert.... Styx. The "Pieces of Eight" tour. Ugh, God I'm old...'78 or so??? Ian Hunter was the opening act. He left more of an impression. Went home high as a kite! The old man was....NOT pleased.

Lots of shows since then have been memorable...for many reasons. MOST memorable....tough call. But, I guess it's GOTTA be....

Todd Rundgren's "warm up" show for the "Arena" tour in 2008. Saw this 'show' in Todd's back yard on Kauai, HI. An amazing week....

Bruno Mars, tonight at Rodeo....f'ing amazing...

And more hot latino chicks in one place than I have ever experienced before...

Amazing, Simply amazing...

Fitzgeralds to see a ska band I don't remember. Went with some non racist skinheads I do remember that.
