11 Hinders Down *pic heavy*

So last night may have been one of the most memorable nights of my entire life! Lang and I went to the American Band, Finger 11, Hinder and 3 Doors Down concert last night. It was FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC!! She bought me tickets for my birthday (which is not until October 6th) and I am SO glad that she did and that she came with me. The trip there was interesting, we got a bit lost but eventually found what we were looking for. When we found the place we had to climb hundreds (I’m not exaggerating) stairs to get to the restaurant inside where we had a reservation. The food sucked, but there were some interesting people there to watch, so it made up for it. Anyway, I took pictures to show you just how awesome this concert was.

Lang and I before Finger 11.

Some creepy guy who was taking pictures from the stage. I put this picture here because it reminds me of the famous Big Foot video.

Finger 11 (who by the way kicked ass and were way better than I expected!)

After Finger 11 we walked up to the top to get some shirts. What a great view! Most artists say that this place is unreal and that there is nowhere else in the world like it.

Hinder. They were cool. I really like a few of their songs, but it was just a bit too “Rock Show” and you couldn’t hear what he was saying, but still awesome!

But the reason we were there, 3 Doors Down. My favorite band playing my favorite songs. What a night!

Lang and I after the concert. Thanks for going baby, it was a once in a lifetime experience and I am so glad we got to share it.

This next picture was taken with my cell phone because I was saving my camera battery just in case I got t meet the band, but I have to say when they started playing and this came up on the giant screen behind them, I almost cried.

What a night!

I’ll have to look when I get home. Dunno if you heard me whining about it before or not, but the work server blocks photos, however, it sometimes lets a few teasers through, like today. I can see your first two pics, and man, they are clear! That is one awesome camera and/or photography job! ryn: Ohhhh riiiiiight! I was supposed to post a pic for you eons ago! I’ll do it tonight. :o)~jo<BR>

It was freaking awesome. I am so glad we were able to go. Happy Birthday, baby!If you look, I think your big foot picture is actually the drummer from American Bang. Interesting.Finger Eleven totally rocked. As did 3 Doors Down, of course. Such a great concert!!Love,

Is this what they call the Red Rocks? The place DMB always played? 3 Doors Down always makes my heart rip in two.

One day I want to see a show in Red Rocks. I’ve got so many shows from bands I like from there.

LoL….I can see the Big Foot resemblance for sure! Glad you had a good time!

RYN: We aren’t really searching for a belief, just discussing them in general. I have my spirituality and religion that I’m passionate about and he has his. We were just talking about it to pass the time and I became curious, that’s all. One of his friends is in the middle of a self debate I think, which is ultimately what brought it up.

Langwidere told me to stop by and look at some pictures – so I thought I would. Very nice! We don’t often get big bands where I come from, and certainly not in that big a venue.

I always think of U2 playing “Sunday, Bloody Sunday” whenever I see a picture of the Red Rocks Ampitheater. Crazy picture guy definitely has a Sasquatch-like gait to his stride.

Also popping by from Lang. Seems like an awesome show!

re: Thank you for the praise! Being called a photographer is… unreal and makes me giddy. I’m “just” an amateur!
