It was.  I left completely soaked top to bottom in what I can only assume was a mixture of other people's sweat and beer.  

In hindsight that sounds disgusting but -you know.  It was really fun.  Eugene held the microphone out to me (we were front and center) but I didn't know any of the words...REGRETS. 

When in doubt, scream "I fucking love you" followed by "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

...............why didn't I think of that a long time ago?  

I'm so not cool.

There is a local festival every year called Locobazooka put on by the rock radio station and it's a 2 day thing with 3 stages and dozens of bands, and a lot of bands got their start there. So that was my first in 1999 and among the bands were Staind, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, Saliva.

onesweetworld, I've seen Aaron solo like 3 times now, he is so good.

I love Aaron Lewis solo. The next show will be my 3rd. Tangled Up In You is our wedding song. It's engraved in my ring.

Yeah I can't remember my first live show. I did a lot of mini shows or shows before they were famous type. Big arena was only DMB, Kenny Chesney & Kelly Clarkson (with Matt Nathanson who is awesome too).

This is me too. I went to a few of local punk rock shows in high school. Nothing major, that I can recall. But for my high school graduation PepperPottsJ, took me to see Dave Matthews Band at Giants Stadium. That was almost 15 years ago, I always remember that Macy Gray opened for them.

That August I finally got to go to the Warped Tour and saw one of my favorite bands, Less Than Jake. It kills me that still have not seen my all time favorite band play ever. I would pay a million dollars to see Our Lady Peace just once.

She's a good sister. I have that poster from DMB at Giant Stadium.

It was at Hersheypark in PA. Not the Hershey Stadium where big acts play, but actually in the amusement park, in a little pavilion. It must have been in like 1990? I think I was in second or third grade.

Good Vibrations. Lol.

That was our wedding song too!! We just bought a house last month and we stood in the empty living room and danced to it.

Ahhh I was like a Warped Tour connoisseur for a while there, like 2000 to 2005. We would haggle backstage passes and all of that. ::sigh::

I happened to glance at the lineup a year or two ago and had not heard of one.single.band that was playing. NONE!!! What is that huh??

[Evelyn3]

Elton John. Can't remember how old I was....

[roofusdoofus]

Boys II Men. For real..with my parents.

Green Day, by myself. Loved them until American Idiot.

OMG, I went one last time when I was 25-26ish. It was downright awful. First, they gave me a drink bracelet that limited me to 6 drinks(I didn't need six, but seriously). Then, I was directed to a semi tented area where they had warm crappy beer that could only be consumed in designated areas. I was like GTFO with designated drinking areas. Unreal.
