My first concert was a rock concert, The Steve Miller Band in 1972 at Cobo. Good times!

The Grateful Dead - July 4, 1986 in Buffalo. Way too much fun at a very young age!

Neds Atomic Dustbin at Saint Andrews Hall, can't remember the year, lol

Ted Nugent w/Blackfoot @ Joe Louis Arena...Sept. 2, 1979

New Kids on the Block at the Palace! Late 80's, early 90's I'm sure.

My first DSO concert was when I was in grade school and we where invited to sing christmas carols with the DSO and it was heard on Saturday morning radio. My mother called everyone to say I was singing on the radio, but so was 20 other schools.

My first DSO concert was in elementary school. I played the violin so it was neat to see all the violin playerers and listen to the great music. One of my Kimball High School classmates plays currently with the DSO and it would be super to hear her play.

Just this last Monday, I was in Houston, Texas and I have a friend that is a music professor at Rice University. He let us sit in on some of the rehearsals. It is the first time I heard chamber music. I'm absolutely hooked. I would love to win tickets to the Detroit Symphony.

My first concert was with my future wife; we saw the DSO play at Ford Auditorium in downtown Detroit in 1988. It was a good performance and we had a good time but little did we know that Ford Auditorium would lie vacant for years afterward, how sad.

We took our 3 yr old daughter (she is now 63) to Belle Isle to see the DSO in concert. She stood in the aisle and directed the orchestra, to the delight of those sitting near us.

My first concert was in the mid-1950s, when my mother's friend and next door neighbor took me to hear the DSO and a guest concert pianist. She invited me because I played the piano, she had two tickets and her husband was out of town. I was very shy, so we didn't talk much. Unfortunately, I don't remember who the pianist was, but I do remember enjoying the concert and being grateful that she invited me.

My first concert was at the Ford Auditorium to watch the DSO perform Beethoven under Antol Dorati. It was a great performance and sparked my interest in classical music.

James Taylor, Pine Knob, circa 1974ish....with my boyfriend and we got all dressed up and snuggled through the whole thing.... James is so mellow and cool....ah, memories...

Rod Stewart and Savoy Brown 1969 at Cobo Hall, with my boyfriend then and husband Bob now. Great Concert!!! :)

I can't remember my first concert. I do remember going to the Fisher Theater as a child to see musicals & other live productions i.e. Peter Pan .

Alice Cooper at Joe Louis on 8/9/1980.

My first concert was Alice Cooper at Joe Louis on 8/9/1980.

I attended my first DSO concert at Ford Auditorium as a school field trip. Sixten Ehrling was the conductor. If it hadn't been for the Sisters of St. Francis I probably would not have developed such a love for classical music. My first rock concert, in case that is what the Patch meant, was seeing the Dave Clark Five, again, at the Ford Auditorium a very long time ago when you had to include a SASF with your ticket order and couldn't wait until the mail arrived with your tickets.

My first concert was KC and the Sunshine Band playing with Little River Band at Meadow Brook

My first concert was at the Masonic Temple , Joe Jackson with the Ramones as a warmup band.

My first Concert was when i was in elementary school "Tubby The Tuba" 90% positive it was at the DSO.

My first concert was the 5th Dimension. I'm 5'2", stood the entire time and didn't see a thing!

My first concert was The Monkees, Herman's Hermits and (I think) Grass Roots. It was the early 80's, I was about 14, and it was WAY past when those bands were popular! I always loved the Monkees, though, and just had to see them!

Royal Oak Symphony Orchestra March 9th 2012. It was date night for my husband and I. And our very first concert.

My first concert was New Kids On the Block

My first concert was New Kids on the Block!

My first concert was Spirit and Iron Butterfly at Michigan Palace. I think it was 1974, could have been 1975.

My parents took my brother and I to the State Fair to see The Supremes perform for free at the band shell. Of course the place was packed on a hot August night so we found at tree to the extreme left of the stage and climbed up for a great view of the stage and the extremely enthusiastic audience. We also went to the Belle Isle band shell numerous times to see the Detroit Concert Band conducted by Leonard B. Smith.
