Well, once in awhile I get to mix it up on Saturday night and yesterday I got to go to the Nickelback concert at Verizon Music Center. I would much rather have been shooting someone’s wedding, but since no one decided to get married on August 15th, I had to find something else to do. LOL These were taken on my little P&S camera so keep that in mind.

They put on a great show with lots of fire & pyrotechnics (is that the right word)? Enjoy!

We got there a little late due to (cough) I69, I know…we should’ve gone the back way. We missed Saving Able but as we were walking down to find our seats Papa Roach was literally right in front of us in the crowd! A great way to start off the night.

The classic mandatory self-portrait. We are so lucky at concerts! The couple sitting next to us wanted their friends to be able to sit with them so they asked us if we wanted to trade seats with their friends. Turns out the friends had seats in row 24!!! WOOT! We were so close we could feel the fire!

A couple from Hinder who did a great job.

9:00ish…..Nickelback

AWESOME drum solo
