My first ever concert was Survivor. Yeah those guys, Eye of the Tiger baby! I was probably 9 yrs old and hated sitting through all the crappy songs to finally get to the Rocky Theme!!!

Other than that I've been to a few Jimmy Buffett concerts. I went to Summerfest in Milwaukee the summer of 1996, spent 4 days there but was too drunk to even recall the names of most of those bands. They had some big ones though, Alanis Morresette, COOLIO, Seven Mary Three, I don't remember the rest. CCR Revisited, that was fun...we got hammered.

they'd come to tallahassee around this time of year, right after finals. Always wanted to just for the laugh, but never could justify spending the 10 dollars to get in.

I like some Buffett concerts. The lawn is the best part of the show. HAHA

What was everybody's first concerts?

Mine was Helmet and Primus. I thought I was going to get into the pit till I saw all the spiked boots and dog collars. I decided to hang back at that point. HAHA

Zombie in Fort Mill. My arm was in a removable cast at the time, being the ever clever teenager I used that to smuggle in some contraband.

Still to this day, that's the best concert I've ever witnessed.

Im surprised you could find a clean picture. I wont totally disagree with TC. They are overall just bad. Real bad. And a lot of the concert, I just didnt get. But, there were some benefits to said concert.

I like it when they put people through their human meat grinder. They like erections too.

I know I know, but it was always on or the day after I was leaving. I remember the school newspaper having them on the front page a couple days before it hit the venue's marquee board and my reaction was, "holy !@$% GWAR's coming to town?! HAHAHAHA NO FREAKING WAY!" but then never did more than that.

The lawn and the tailgate parties are epic! The show itself...yeah I guess he was up there singing Margaritaville but I don't necessarily say I can confirm that 100% either.

Time for some knowledge. Just read this little fascinating bit:

Switzerland may be famous for its neutrality; however, it's anything but lax defensively. Every bridge and every tunnel is designed with built-in explosives to destroy it. Even today, you can't get a building permit without a first class, expensive, bomb shelter worked into the plan. Sprawling hospitals are dug into mountains, still ventilated to be kept dry and ready for use. And halfway up alpine cliffs, bat-cave-type doors can slide open, allowing fighter jets to zoom into action from hidden airstrips cut out of solid rock.But slowly the Swiss are realizing that the cost of maintaining their strategic defense initiative is no longer justified. In fact many of the country's 15,000 secret underground military installations are being decommissioned and some are being opened to the public as museums.​

So, they dont want to fight, and if a fight breaks out they have bunkers to hide in while they blow their own stuff up?

That is a fascinating fact OEM, I never knew. Why would they need so much defense if they're so neutral and have no real enemies? Maybe they're planning something and we should all be watching their every move?
