My Favorite Concert, would have to be Falling in Reverse. I still remember it was yesterday, i went with my best friend Etna and we got there super early to make lane. cause if we went later then we would have waited a long time :wailing: so we were seating on the floor till they started calling VIP, which i was in. But etna did not get Vip, so i sat with her till they started calling roll for VIP. while we were seating there. i bus pulled up and yes the band of FALLING IN REVERSE CAME OUT. I was in shook and he said hello to me... i slowly died from the inside! They kept coming in and out of the venue. which was amazing cause we were near their bus.Finally they called the VIP people, which i was excited cause i was gonna meet Falling in Reverse band. It Went pretty quick. but the fun part was when they came out to play. and let me tell you this im 5'9 and etna is 5'2. we some how got to the front, which was a battle cause there was a mashpitt a HUGE one :dizzy: . It was crazy, once got to the front, it was like we were in war, so many drunk people trying to push each other. some guy kept hurting this girl and tried to to it to etna. which i didnt let happened. :grr :grr by the end of the night it was an amazing show. and the battle was finally over :smug:

The best concert I ever saw was Paul McCartney in OKC in 2002; only instead of a concert it was more like a huge party! But what blew me away was the day my son and I went to get the tickets for the show. By luck of a raffle ticket we were 3rd and 4th persons in line at the window when it first opened. Getting caught up in the excitement I started thinking about paying more for tickets than I had originally planned to and I remember telling my son that I really should pay the electric bill lol. I was only buying tickets for he and I so the couple that was first in line asked if I would help them out because they wanted more than the limit. They asked me to purchase a few of the "best available" using their Visa. Then they told me that if I did then I could upgrade my own seats and they would pay the difference - so I did and they did! My son and I ended up on the floor about 11 rows back - woohoo! Then I saw Paul again in Tulsa in 2013 and again in OKC just last month.

I have so many this is hard! I am going to try to keep it short and sweet. Coachella, the energy is wild and you just experience so much! It can be so overwhelming at first! I am from New York City so my boyfriend and I, plus a handful of our best friends book our traveling package through Valley Music Travel for Coachella Platinum Estate two weekend trip- it gives us access to everything for the two-weekend festival and is the easiest way to plan because everything is accounted for. We also get the early access passes to ensure our stay. So, the weekend(s) are jammed with us going to see performances and trying to fit all of them in because of the stages and different tents, but during the week we enjoy ourselves. I've seen Lady Gaga, Tove Lo, The Chainsmokers, Lorde, Kid Cudi, Skrillex, Calvin Harris, Tyga, Krewella, Marina And The Diamonds, Lana Del Rey (My fav) and the list is endless for who I have been able to see. From the moment it starts everyone is just ready to have fun and enjoy life! The best of all is the people you go with will always share the experience. I have photo albums of our times there, which are so fun to make, my boyfriend and the friends we go with have all our photos printed out-they come to our place we get pizza and all that cool stuff while we put our albums together for a night in! We look forward to it every year! <3

I remember my 1st concert, except it wasn't the best.... It was the all time WORST! I went to go see the singer Trina, she's the woman who sings I'm single again. Trina never showed up for her own concert because it started raining. The concert was located in downtown Miami, I swear to you the whole environment was awful, my friend and I got high off of second hand smoke from other people, he couldn't stop crying and I couldn't stop laughing. We were teenagers when we went in year 2014, we had to take the train there, step over homeless people, and get hit on by unattractive men. My advice to everyone is.... DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY FOR TRINA'S yadda CONCERTS!

This is really going to show my age! When I was a teenager and living in Germany in 1967, I got a chance to see the Rolling Stones in a very small hall in Bremen. It was my very first concert. Here is a picture that one of my friends took - please forgive the quality. Cameras have improved a lot in the past 50 years!

HI my fellow YoNeighbors,

The best concert I have ever been to was the Tina Turner concert back in the mid 80's in Washington State University. I was down front and OMGreatness, she is the best stage entertainer ever. She was up there in years back then and everyone was commenting on that performance. She still had "it", no matter what her age. She involved the audience goers and never let any of her fans feel that they were not important to her. Tina Turner has the best legs ever, still does and I'm not into girls, but I hope when I get to her age (which isn't that far away lol, I have legs that would entertain the world too. :D

That's my best concert experience thus far. Thanks for letting me walk down Memory Lane...hey "MEMORY LANE" might be a great street name for one of the themes! Just sayin...
PRECIOUS

Wow, best concert ever.. been to so many.. guess if I had to pick one it would be the World Series of Rock at the old Cleveland Municipal Stadium along with 80,000+ other concert goers way back in '78 when I saw a new band that I enjoyed very much by the name of Trickster, followed by Journey then Foreigner and was topped off with the headliners, the Electric Light Orchestra! About 5 hours of 70's rock I'll never, ever forget!! :thumbsup:

I saw Elvis Presley on New Year's Eve 1975/76 at the Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan. My dad at the time drove a bus for Charterways Bus Transport and they had a package from Toronto to Michigan including the ticket for the show and overnight in a hotel. Because I was the bus driver's daughter, I got a front row ticket to what was later determined as Elvis's biggest attendance ever with over 80,000 people in attendance at this concert. It took three hours to drive there because there was a wicked snow storm and I was worried we wouldn't make it, but we did. I had an absolutely amazing time and have never experienced a concert like that since and I have been to quite a few concerts including Michael Jackson, George Michael and Paul McCartney & Wings. Elvis could definitely put on a show. Yes. Best. Concert. EVER.

The Atlanta Pop.Festival was held in Atlanta Georgia in July of 1970. On the poster to perform were The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Simon and Garfunckle, Edgar Winter, to name just a few starts who would be there.
$Tickets were $60.00 starting Friday night and ending on Sunday afternoon. Imagine $60.00 to see all thebove mentioned stars and more. My friend and I bought tickets in Dayton, Ohio, along with airplane tickets to Atlanta which cost $42.00.

We got on plane barefoot, we were barefoot all weekend,arriving in Albany, Georgia, 90 miles from the Atlanta Speedway where festival was to be held.

My cousin stationed there in Navy and Navy Depot. He lived with 3 fellow navy guys. We all rode 90 miles to Atlanta that afternoon on Honda 90 motorcyles, if you can call them that.

Arrived at festval around midnight, walked up a big hill and there was the stage and hundreds of people. B.B. King was playing the Star Spangled Banner. Never forget the chills that one gave me.
All those attending the festival were friendly sharing food, wine, beer, and even drugs. It was so stirring to be in a crowd of hundreds other 20 something people all being friendly and loving.
Jimi Hendrix took the stage for his set. It was fantastic. While he was on stage an announcemnt came over the sound system.
"Do not eat the watermelon being sold. It is laced with acid". My friend didn't hear the announcemnt and had just finished eating the watermelon. There was one motel on the Speedway Grounds. He ended up driving his motorcycle into that motels swimming pool. I'm not trying to glorify drugs but it was one of the craziest things I had ever seen in my 20 year old life. Drugs were a big deal then. You know that saying, "stick it to the man" and "don't trust anyone over 30".
Crosby, Stills and Nash performance took my breath away.
All the hundreds of people kept moving around so everyone got a chance to stand right in front of the stage. I was blessed to see a lot of the fantastic rock n roll groups of the sixties and seventies.
It was like a mini woodstock but much better.
It was a magical two days of my life and I can hear the music still in my head and my heart. It was a once in a lifetime happening.
I may be old but at least i got to see all the really good bands. LOL I guess it was one of those "you had to be there" to understand the 2 1/2 day magic of fantastic rock n roll, the ambiance of hundreds of people sharing all they had and being kind and so peaceful together.
