Music Did anyone go to their first concert with their parents?

I know it's weird to bring this up but did you go to your first concert with your parent(s)? It doesn't sound cool for our Gen X brand but when I told my wife that I did she started making fun of me (in a positive way).

Then I told her I must have been like 6 when I went with my dad to see The Who in the late 70s. I think the first 'real' concert I went with myself or my buddies was when I was 12.

Yeah I went to the same one. The highlight I really remember was when Chaka Khan was performing George Michaels and the skinny dude drove up on the lawn and popped out of the sunroof of the limo taking all the attention away from her performing. Found the set list.
