I took my best friend who had never been to a concert before so this was meaningful for many reasons. We sat about ten rows back, dead center, sang every word and cried. It was a moving and amazing night that we still talk about.
I was fortunate to have spent 37 years working in the radio/tv industry which afforded me many opportunities to see many artists. Honorable mention to Springsteen, Aerosmith, Bette Midler, Van Halen, Elton John, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Alanis Morrisette and Meatloaf. Thanks for asking this question and making it possible to go down my musical memory lane.
That uncannily kind of reminds me of a Ventures concert I went to with a friend who had never been to a concert before. We didn't cry, weren't about ten rows back, or dead center, but we sang every word of their songs with them.
