This was my favorite tour of his until the Brutal Planet tour. This show started my hatred for Faster Pussycat, who I ended up seeing about 76 more times without wanting to. I saved that shirt and I still have it.somewhere. I also got "blood" from one of the huge balloons Alice throws out on my white Clockwork Orange shirt. Same show as below, just alot closer and general admission. I got some good photos from this show too.Īlice Cooper w/Frehley's Comet & Faster Pussycat - Binghamton, NY - 11/8/87. Someone tried to rip a chain off of Ace's boot and we noticed that when, a few days later, he hosted Headbanger's Ball he wore the same boot with the chain partly ripped off. It was the first time I went to the Lost Horizon, and I tripped walking down to the stage area. Actually, I met Jeff and his brother Chris there. I thought they were great back then for some reason.įrehley's Comet - Lost Horizon, Syracuse, NY - 06/25/87 -Īnother ex-KISS member's show that I went to see by myself. Between the blinding pink outfits, Mark Slaughter's screeching, and Vinnie's sloppy speed playing, it was a very odd show. I wanted to see VVI as well, because of the KISS connection. So, I think I went to this show by myself. I had seen his comeback concert on Halloween night on MTV, and I thought his show was awesome. But there was no missing the gigantic logo, the great song selection, and the rush you feel seeing your favorite band.Īlice Cooper w/Vinnie Vincent Invasion - Syracuse, NY - 12/15/86 - $14.50 -Īround this time I was just getting into Alice Cooper. However, being 13 years old, we weren't tall so we couldn't see very well. We waited in line out front, where I almost got my leg broken by the herds of cattle, and we did get very close to the stage.
It was also general admission, so my friend Jeff and I were determined to get up close.
I was a huge KISS fan before this show, but after seeing them I thought they were the coolest thing since Spaghettios. I do not remember Queensryche at all, I just wanted them to hurry up so I could see KISS. Someone else got it from them and returned it to us. During the show, without us knowing, some hoodlums stole the banner from our seat. Eric and I (well, mostly I) made a large banner to bring to the show.
I went with my brother, my cousin Tim (now "Mister Tim") and my friend Eric. It was very fitting that it should be my favorite band. This is the first show I actually remember going to. This is a picture from that show that I found on some photographer's website. How many other people born in the 1970's can say they've been to an Elvis Presley concert? I do know that it was at the War Memorial and I went with my Mom, Dad, Aunt, Uncle, brother and (I think) 2 cousins. I obviously don't remember this show very well, seeing as I was only 4 years old, but it is a pretty cool thing to brag about. I have no idea when, but they'll get done eventually because I know at some point I'll have to make some room in my brain for new memories. The list is complete but, obviously, the memories are not. Here are my memories of many of the concerts I've been to.
But, more importantly, these stubs contain some great memories. These stubs have band's names, dates, cities, and sometimes dollar values on them. I have a bunch of little paper stubs that I keep in a large KISS Animalize mug.
