116. Rush
Technically speaking, it would be a couple of Boston bands that played at the local fairgrounds during the annual fair in 1982. The Jon Butcher Axis (a hard rock band that released a couple of major label albums) and The Fools (a goofy bar band with a big following), plus some others I've since forgotten.

The first "real" concert was Rush at the Worcester Centrum (now the DCU Center) on the Signals tour. Rory Gallagher opened.

I can remember a few shows that I missed (Snow Patrol, The Cure, Pogues) this year, but I think the last concert was, and I kid you not, Reba McEntire. My wife loves Reba, so she talked my brother into scoring some tickets to her show at Meadowbrook Pavilion last summer. Not my thing, but Mrs. BlueDog was happy, and that's what counted.
