What was the last concert that you went to?

It was a super fun sold out show 60 to 80000 tickets sold, that's a lot of money at todays ticket prices. Our tickets were $350 each, we had great seats though. I think you could've bought nose bleed seats for $45 per seat, but I wanted to be in the VIP seats because of my back, and the great view. It was awesome, totally worth the money too me.

It was a really fun show, yep, we had cheap seats, I refuse to pay the stupid prices many bands are demanding these days plus I was taking the kids. They doubted but had a blast. We had a hotel within walking distance so we could maximize the fun ;) . I felts like the crowd would cheer every time Angus pulled off a stunt and didn't fall LOL

One of the most memorable concerts I have been to was probably Nine Inch Nails at a place called The Bomb Factory in Deep Ellum. Marilyn Manson opened that show, a nobody at the time. We stood in the pit the entire show, the stage fence collapsed before the show even started. Folks sitting up in the rafters, crowd surfers, it was insane. I am pretty sure the only reason we didn't fall over and get trampled was because it was thousands of people packed like sardines shoulder to shoulder, one could not simply fall over. When the crowd moved you would just kinda move with them.

Another was either Lalapalooza or Edge fest at the Coca cola Star Plex. We had assigned seats up close behind a fence. The folks in the lawn were throwing glass, turkey legs, water bottles etc up in to the assigned seating area. It was drastic. I believe it was Red Hot Chili Peppers that took the stage when the entire lawn stormed the stage, collapsed the fence and raged in. It suddenly became general seating and incredibly dangerous lol. We left for our own safety, that was unfortunate but memorable. This would have been early 90's.
