On Wednesday night I took my niece to her very first concert! We went to go see Metric play the Coke Stage at the Calgary Stampede.

I, myself am a self-proclaimed “concert aficionado”. The first show I ever attended was Shania Twain when she played the then “Canadian Airlines Saddledome” in June 1998 on her Come on Over tour. I still have the ticket stub somewhere.

Since then, I have attended hundreds of shows. My personal record was set back in 2016 when I attended a total of 52 concerts that year! I haven’t been able to break that record yet, but I’ve had fun trying these past couple years!

What was your first concert?
