I really want to go to a good concert. The last concert I saw here was The Black Eyed Peas, with my friend Naomi, and the tickets were like $12. This was right before their album got big, when they were still just semi-popular. When "Where is the Love" had just, just came out on the radio. First Avenue rocks!

First Avenue (and the 7th Street Entry) is one of the great, historic music venues in this country. So much music history has been made here.
I remember back in the 80's seeing great shows: Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Husker Du, The Cramps, The Church, Circle Jerks, The Replacements, Minutemen, etc. For these and many other great underground bands, First Ave was perhaps the most important venue of the time.
Oh...and Prince also made that movie. "Purple Rain", here.
