On July 19,1984 at L&M amphitheater. So pissed I didn’t go but I was also 9. Would have been epic! Did anyone go?!? Asking for a friend.

I saw them in 1988. My first concert without parents, 15 years old. Me and my buddies went to see Guns and Roses as opening band.
Turned out GNR kind of sucked but INXS still with me today. They rocked

I was there. They opened for the Go-Go's at the amphitheater on the riverfront at the 1984 Worlds Fair. I had never heard INXS prior to that concert. It was epic and I have been a fan since that night. I also saw them at NOLA Municipal Auditorium on March 5, 1988 with Public Image Limited the opening act.

Damn...I could have typed this exact post. INXS was one of the tightest bands out there. Too bad Michael Hutchence couldn't hold it together. And for those who don't know, PIL's lead singer was Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols.

I was 5 and scared as shite to get on it. My parents made me, and I'm pretty sure I screamed the whole way. Imagine my shock when I realized I had to get back on it to get back to the other side of the river.

I was there too, and this was back when Jimmy Swaggert got caught hooking up with prostitutes (pun intended). Michael Hutchence dedicated “Devil Inside” to him.

Great show and great venue.

Kick was pretty good but Listen Like Thieves is an all time great album. Combat show on the radio. As a band they sounded very much the same live as they did on the album....and they weren't faking it. Something to be said for the core of your band to have grown up in the same house.
