Lifelong fan of metal and hard rock. My first large concert was Iron Maiden opening up for Judas Priest back around 1983. Maiden was touring on the ‘The number of the beast’. Both bands around their peak.
I want to say it was 1978 and Van halen opened for Sabbath at the (then) Cape Cod coliseum ...general admission and it was a great first concert that I chose to see. Sabbath opened it up with “Snowblind” Next morning my friend and I wound up at some house somewhere on the bay side of the Cape...different times.
