My 5th show, I remember faintly.

My friend Melanie's older brother was going, so we went together in his VW bug. The first and only time in my life I've ever fainted. We smoked a tremendous amount of weed; it was very hot and close, and the next thing I knew I was lying on the floor, with people going "Are you alright?" In a few minutes I felt normal again.

 

first show?

I was 13 years old and my father thought I should have a job. one of his card playing buddies had the concession to the long beach arena where he arranged to give me a job selling peanuts ( just like the circus). I showed up with my white shirt and tie and was admitted through an employee entrance. coming from a straight laced family I was in for a shock.The smoke, lights, colors, people, dancing and this just in the corridors, was overwhelming. I had no idea what acid rock was, and was definitely a bit freaked out. I managed to hang for about 20 minutes and realized I was out of my element. My mom must of sensed something because when I finally made it out side she was there waiting. So I am not really sure if this counts as my first show or not, it was not until 76 that I was reintroduced and from there on there was no looking back
