    Holy jealous. Faith No More is one of my all time favorites. I got to see them in '97 at a small festival in MA. They took the stage after Limp Bizkit. Ha!

    weird, i saw faith no more, soundgarden, and voivod in 90. those bands toured a lot together back then i suppose.

    saw gnr open for aerosmith in 88 as well.

    funny how all of these bands cross our collective paths.

    best concert i've been surprised by: seeing luscious jackson in a small club in cambridge with a then unknown ben harper opening.
    i had no idea who he was, but i was wondering why there were a ton of middle aged/older people at the show.

    then he played his song "like a king" and the whole place was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. and then i knew I was seeing something really special.

    When I bought "The Real Thing" LP for "Epic" alone, it blew my mind so hard in so many ways that I can't even begin to describe it. Still one of my all-time fave records. One of the few things I actually do remember about that show is Mike Patton climbing up at least 12 ft. on the side of the stage; and singing from up there. Ha, I even was so lucky to see them again with L7 as support shortly after!

    I think I was still into MOTU back in '88... Jealous nonetheless!

    My folks took me to the Houston Rodeo in 1983, where I saw the Gatlin Brothers play. I hated every second of it.
    In 1986, my friend took me to see Iron Maiden on their "Somewhere in Time" tour. A much better experience.
    The Vinnie Vincent Invasion opened up and were terrible.

    Yea, add me to that jealousy list as well. Faith No More is in my top five, most definitely. I really wish I could see them on a reunion tour or something. I've never had the chance to see them live.

    My first concert ever was Greenday. It was alright. This was during the time that "Dookie" came out.

    First show I paid for myself: fIREHOSE at Maxwell's in Hoboken, 1988.
    I took Mike Watt's cigar (he had accidentally put the lid end in his mouth at one point in the set, extinguishing it) off his amp after the show.
