I am going, it will be my second as well, the first being East Troy, WI last month. I need one more ticket for my friend if anyone has an extra. Please email me at mbabyak at gmail dot com.

http://community.webshots.com/album/423514156AQtUJn -Alpine Valley, Wisconsin I posted these before, but why not post again. I am also going to the show in Raleigh, NC on Saturday, but now with as good of seats. Since I am going there with 2.5 gigs worth of memory cards for my camera, I am going to take lots of pictures and videos, and I will post them and upload the videos when I get back.

Nice pics Texasluvsjonny. Its funny that you can see me and my friend in 3 of the first few pics of the pit before it got crowded, we're pretty much right in the middle of the photos, I'm in a blue shirt and jeans and my buddy is in a beater and jeans.

No problem man, I'm glad I could take that picture for you. I am amazed of how many people have looked at these pictures, there have been about 3,200 views in 3 days, compared to one of my other albums that had 700 or so views over 5 months. I think many people saw us, because we are so tall (6'5" and 6'7"). It was a bit annoying, we waited in line for the doors to open at like 5:15, finally got down to the pit at 6:00, Coldplay finally comes on at 9, and then people start asking to stand in front of us when Coldplay started :o . One comment we heard after Black Mountain finished was "why do the two tallet guys here have to stand RIGHT THERE?"

My Webshots community album of all my pictures from Alpine Valley. Most of them turned out really well, I hope you all enjoy them, and feel free to download them.

I'll post a link to my Webshots album for the concert. I snuck my Canon SD400 into the pit and was standing in the very front, at the left-center of the stage. I took about 100 pictures and a lot of them turned out excellant, and even many of the blurry ones look cool. I'm going to get started making the album, I'll post the link when I'm done. I'm happy I Googled for tips for taking pictures at concerts, the manual settings on my camera allowed me to get some very cool shots, and lots that are very clear. But they are a bit noisy, you would need an SLR and a lot stabler environment to shoot from to get much better I believe.
