you.. um... you went to a vanilla ice conert last year?

Sadly yes, but I had no choice! I ran the show. My students picked him. I was surprised anybody showed up.

So, pray tell, how much does it cost to hire Vanilla Ice these days?

well, legally, i can't really say. but let's just say he wasn't the most expensive show we had that year. i wanted to charge him though. see that case of water bottles? he had cases all over the stage. i just thought he got really thirsty. nooooo. he poured it all over the stage and the students during the show. and when someone tried throwing water at him he made a face!

 

[VintagePunk]

i wanted to charge him though.

Yeah, I would think that would be the far more equitable arrangement.

People chose him.

Poor you having to watch his show.

Theres some really good pics here.

Honest to God? I post process EVERYTHING! I'm ten times better on the computer than I am with the camera.

As for the camera, I never use a flash, I use manual settings where I am in control of the ISO, f-stop, etc. I also only took pics during certain songs where I knew I could get them relatively still and the lighting would work.

VP is right, you have a really good eye for what makes a good shot. The computer can't do that for you.

Re: Re: Post your concert photos

Here's a decent article - you can see the settings used.
You'll have to use one of the manual modes, and it's best to wait for the white lights.

Thanks for this link, im going to see if i can pick up any tips from it.

 

[bonoishot]

Heres some of my pics. There quite grainy, i obviously need to figure out better settings, especially now i have a new camera.

Bumping this thread Anyone else have any new concert photos?

Here's a few of DEVO last night.

 

[Earl-Of-IMDb]

Well, it was after a concert...sorry. I just had to post the only picture I've taken around a concert.

Woah nice!! you look really pretty and Larry as handsome as ever. Great pic, i would love to take a pic like that with the whole band

awesome pics that everyone took

those Devo guys are veryy interesting to see.....

This was from blink 182. I'm kind of annoyed because I've been to a lot of concerts, mostly when I was a teen. I guess I never took pictures

That's an awesome shot. The band's name Blink182 is runored to mean just that....the term "blink" being another slang term for f*ck. The 18 for the 18th letter of the alphabet being "R" and 2 being the 2nd word of the alphabet "B", this "F*CK RB"....The Blink guys went to Poway High School in San Diego which is a rival of Rancho Bernardo High Shcool, also known as "RB". Just sayin.

some cracking photos in this thread!
i've got a couple i like, mostly u2 but some others too.
have never figured out how to take a decent photo at a gig - i get some good ones sometimes but for each of them there's 20 bad ones!
most concerts I'm too far back for a decent shot, the ones below are a couple of gigs where I've been close enough to warrant a picture.

Snow Patrol
