The first five concerts I ever saw were:
1. Three Dog Night, Aberdeen, SD, 1975(?)
2. Pablo Cruise, Aberdeen, SD, 1977
3. Rush (Golden Earring opened), St. Paul, MN, 1978
4. Cheap Trick (AC/DC opened), Sioux Falls, SD, 1979
5. Van Halen, Rapid City, SD, 1979
Just a kid living out in the "sticks". I never even heard the Clash until 1980. Hopefully my kids will be more impressed with their first concerts which will be The Violent Femmes (2 years ago) and The Pogues in 2008.
