It's just a point and shoot camera... Canon Powershot S3 IS.

It's actually an older model at this point... I believe the version out now is the Powershot S5 IS. It's a beautiful camera... A little bulkier than most but I've had it for a year and a half now, and I'm rather impressed with it. It's proven to be absolutly perfect for concerts (and everything else)... Especially with the 12x optical zoom & 48x digital zoom! I highly recommend it if anyone ever needs a new camera! :)

 

Your photos look so professional! I have a canon too...i think it's a newer version, but the photos i've taken at the concerts come out dark and blurry. :(

 

Damn...proves that sometimes buying what's newest is not always the best.

Thanks :)... Which Canon do you have? The settings you use usually tend to make a big difference. If you have a manual mode on your camera, experiment with that a bit... if you haven't already. You'll like the results!

soo if she took your picture with jonnys iphone... and then sent it to you.... you have jonny's cell number???

 

 

 

Oh, great question!!!:D

 

 

 

 

I was sitting on Guy's side... lol why?

 

 

she was asking about what side he came down because the only other time so far on this tour that he has PLAYED down that ramp was during IMP in Chicago on the second night.

 

Was he coming down the ramp to come play the mini-set with CSC and GPASUYF or was he just playing guitar by himself during a song??:thinking:

 

Jonny came and played down that ramp at least once or twice by himself... I'm pretty positive about that.

 

yep - that little mini stage was directly in front of where I was sitting (in the uppers front row)... Jonny walked down the ramp played a few bars and walked back up to the stage... Might have been during In My Place (can't recall the exact moment and I'm skimming through all the video to see if I can find it)

 

Yeahh he came down it a few times like someone else said. And Chris and Guy did too.

 

 

Thanks for everyone's answers! Yes, I wanted to know where Chloe was and what ramp, etc b/c I'm still blown away by what he did for Mel and me when he came down Guy's ramp out of nowhere and played for us in Chicago on 7-23. It was extremely special, so I wanted to know all instances of him doing this. Makes sense that he would do it for the gf as well.

 

Guy came down his ramp? I have never seen him go wandering on his own yet either. It looks like they all are having fun with this stage design. I'm glad for it!

 

Someone was checking if they had video of this (probably In My Place). Please post if anyone does. Thanks so much!

open61, thanks for putting your videos up. Can you put Fix You back up, because YouTube is stating it's unavailable.

 

Also, if anyone else got video of the two numbers in the stands where you can actually see the band, can they put it up? I was in a box that night and had a pretty good view. There was a guy in a green shirt who was practically peeing his pants, he was so excited.

I'd like to see some close video of that too, I was standing very close. Coincidently, I was wearing a green shirt, I don't recall any urination though.

wow, we were not really loud during our sing alongs, i was kinda shocked.

 

the same could be said for the 31st show too...it didnt seem really loud from the clips..i wonder what happened to the crowd, did we forget the words lol.

 

 

compare the fix you videos from the last two day to this one from the toronto 2006 show.

^ That was an amazing singalong back in 2006, and for me I thought that the audience enjoyed the show in all its entirety nonetheless Wednesday night. Maybe it was just the people around you that were too wrapped up in emotion to sing aloud :P

 

Even Chris said to the crowd on the 30th show, that the "welcome we get every time here is unparelled", and we should be very proud they feel so strongly for us :nice:
