Looking back on the thread name, i think i can state my most embarassing concert experience, right?

well, it was at the 930 club back in 1997 or so, and me and two friends went to see Outkast.

Apparently the two of them had been drinking heavily (or on some other drugs) and one girl passed out upstairs and the other accidentally walked into the men's room!!!

they both got kicked out and i had the whole 930 staff pissed off at me as i tried to get these two out of the club with me. and outkast hadnt even come on yet.

then i got to clean vomit from my car later that night. ugh.

I went to see Molly Hatchet and the Road Ducks at Jaxx last year.

The guitarist (and only original member) from Molly Hatchet dedicated a song to his cardiologist's brother, who was in the audience that night.

Every morning in middle school my bus driver would play that station. The DJ would always say "It's burnt toast and coffee time."

Milli Vanilli, Young MC and Seduction at Baltimore Arena (back when it was the Civic Center). What can I say, I was the only teenage boy who was surrounded by chicks. We went in a van, and I was the only dude, with 6 girls from school.

There I admitted it.

On the other hand, the above was my first concert not with parents.

The first concert ever was Merle Haggard at Painter's Mill. I think I was five. Great show, yet, watching him on the revolving stage made me dizzy.

Captain 20 and the Kroft Superstars. "Launch???? I SAID LUNCH!"

The ice cream man that used to come down our block would flash that little Captain 20/Vulcan hand signal and tell us he was Captain 20. At the time we thought he was really cool. Looking back, what a creepy guy.

197? - Foreman Field - ODU - Norfolk, VA.
CSNY - Lots of chemicals and courage in a bottle caused many interesting events that day. I never knew a hot pony miller tossed from the top level of a stadium to the sidewalk outside (where individuals were in various state of being taken into custody) would explode like that and cause so many people to scatter instantly.

Yeah. To a 12 yr old he was dreamy. :eek:

late 80's: huey lewis and the news pittsburgh civic (now mellon) arena

Either Wayne Newton on the mall 7/4/83 (thank you James Watt!) which was terrible, or Pointer Sisters at Merriweather around the same time . . . and were actually pretty good . . .

This one may win the prize!

New york, new york, is everything they say
And no place that Iâ??d rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quarter to three
When they palt their music, ooh that modern music
They like it with a lot of style
But tâ??s still that same old back beat rhythm
That really drives â??em wild

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what Iâ??ve seen I believe â??em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating

La, hollywood, and the sunset strip
Is something everyone should see
Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls
All dressed so scantily
When they play their music
That hard rock music
They like it with a lot of flash
But itâ??s still that same old back beat rhythm
That really kicks â??em in the

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what Iâ??ve seen I believe â??em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still beating

Dc, san antone and the liberty town, boston and baton rouge
Tulsa, austin, oklahoma city, seattle, san francisco, too
Everywhere thereâ??s music, real live music, bands with a million styles
But itâ??s still that some old rock and roll music
That really drives â??em wild

Would you believe Beatle-mania at Constitution Hall somewhere around 1980?

You forgot…

"t,t,t,t,t,t, They say the heart…"

It is when he stutters with style, like in the shitty video.

honestly can't remember my first concert, poppa bear was taking me to see all the jazz great in my formative years.

most embarassing concert experience there is tie.

The Cut The Crap tour

and

Robert Plant w/ Phil Collins on drums. embarassing because I went expecting other big stars to pop up like Pete Townsend. "I'm in the mood for a melody"

For the most embarassing momemt on stage… and it almost an arseing moment at that. in a literal case of "his balls being too big for his pants" the trousers of Pop Will Eat Itself split just below the crotch and he was showing a bit of the pink for a song or two, before they tried to tape up the hole with duct tape. Which didn't hold very long, so the roadie fetched a pair of striped pants which the lead singer pulled up on the outside of his trousers to cover up the hole. :D

Hairy balls.

Easily my most embarrasing concert experience was my first. My father took me to see Debbie Gibson at Merriweather Post for her "Out of the Blue" tour. To this day he does not let me live this down. Fortunately though, this concert experience is either balanced out or canceled out by my second concert experience, Sonic Youth's Goo tour at University of Maryland College Park. Red Kross opened. Whatever happened to Red Kross?
