Do big multi-act gigs count? If so, then my first was Capital FM's Party In The Park in 200...1? It rained for most of the day, so me and my friend went home with 90 mins left cos we'd seen everyone we wanted to see.

Single gig, would probably have been Justin Timberlake at Earls Court in about 2003-2004?

Both my first & last gig was Jesus Jones! First in the Forum (then Town & Country Club) in Feb 1991, then in Jan 2012 in the Islington Academy. Kicked ass both times!

I've never been to a live gig :O but I am planning on seeing Gaga's tour so that'll be my first! Very excited would love love love to have seen Rolling Stones back in the day or Springsteen in the 80s but I wasn't alive then...

I'm a late bloomer as far as going to concerts is concerned. My first was Bon Jovi in Punchestown in 2008, I was 25. Yes, go ahead tell me how sad that is.

David Cassidy - Empire Pool (now Wembley Arena) March 17th 1973.

I was 13 and at boarding school, we had to get permission from the headmistress to let us go. Unforgettable experience!

I was at this gig, but I don't recall B.A.D, Lloyd Cole or Dr and the Medics. I'm sure they supported them on the next night on the 22nd, but it's such a long time ago I could be wrong.

You're right about seeing The Cult And The Bangles on the same bill being a bit strange, but I enjoyed them both.
