One for my BOM. I've been wanting to do this lo for a long time. Finally got it done. Some of this is inspired by Mom2CamiandReese (thank you!).
Journaling reads:
Ok, so looking back, I feel like Barry Manilow was pretty lame for a 1st concert, but at age 11, my friends and I thought he was cool.
Three years later Van Halen changed my life forever. But no pictures.
My 1st Kiss concert had a profound impact on me. As I stood there listening I realized that the rumbling I heard was the bass causing the ceiling of the Hampton Coliseum to vibrate. It's why I picked up a bass and learned to play! But no pics!
I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn before I even knew who he was. So sad that I wasn't able to fully appreciate him. No photos.
I saw the Grateful Dead just to say I did.
I marveled at the greatness of Santana.
And I got to meet Metallica! No pics!
And just as it should be I suppose, my last true concert was Jimmy Page & Robert Plant. Not quite Zeppelin, but as close as I'll ever get, and from the 10th row no less! Alas, still no pictures.
Now, 10 years later and just a week ago, I took my own daughter to her first concert - The Jonas Brothers (kind of like Andy Gibb all over again!) It was awesome to experience it with her. And I took pictures!
