      I lived in North Adelaide at the time, so you just had to walk down the hill and breathe it in at no cost.

    The first album I bought was 'Spirit Having Flown' by the Bee Gees.

      Hi Loopy. My first concert was in 1976 and it was a Neil Diamond Concert in Perth. This was strange for me as it is not the sort of music I like but have been a fan of his ever since. Always pays to broaden one's horizons with things. lol.

        Went to Ozfest! I had the best time. It was in Raleigh, NC & can't remember the exact date but do remember it was in the late 1990s.

          Sidney Myer music bowl 1977 good seats near the front as we were family friends of people in " in the know!" ABBA. l was 11yrs . Fantastic!! Next one that same year was a tiny venue in Scotland with one man on stage for almost 2 hrs with his guitar. Mr. Harry Chapin . So lucky to have heard cats in the cradle done live by the man himself and he met all the audience in the foyer afterwards , lovely man. First album .. you're testing me Loops ! Could have been ABBA arrival .. or maybe Grease ( movie soundtrack) double album

              Albums?..secondhand..Beatles for Sale...brand new Led Zeppelin 3...first serious concert would have been Hawkwind with Motorhead playing support...at the end of a ancient Victorian Pier at Hastings in the UK...right out a long in the water..the whole pier vibrated...it was madness...I spent hours hitch hiking there and back...I was partly deaf for a couple of hours afterwards....

                  Unbelievable Von . . . me too. I didn't see you there though. I remember the stones sounded pretty bad and got outta there fast at the end with some of the crowd going crazy with the cops. I think my first Album was The Temptations - 1990 Album.
                • VonSomebody Kinda Loopy
                  Yep, I remember the riots outside. Bikies, people throwing bottles, rocks etc. I left when it was obvious the cops couldn't control the crowd. I'm surprised I didn't see you at the after party....I was there for three days.

                    My first album was Michael Jackson's Thriller. I believe my very first concert was the Lollapalooza festival in 1992 in Detroit.
