If you mean rock concert gig - that would have been Simon and Garfunkel in 1967 at UCLA. Shortly after that (or maybe before since I don't remember the dates exactly) would have been the Mamas and Papas with Jimmi Hendrix at the Hollywood Bowl. Definitely 1967 for both of them.

However I was taken to the symphony and and the opera in New York City when I was a very little kid. The first time I was probably about 7 years old. That may be where I got my love for live shows.

Kansas and Johnny Van Zant Band - 1980. I was 14 and was in total shock. My friend and I went with some older guys. We were right up against the stage and I saw things that night I had never even heard of! And that was the beginning of my downfall!

A rock concert? Apart from a few Finnish bands, it was Mötley Crüe in Helsinki, 1985 or '86.
