I had an awesome time at this show. I ran into jtfdzn for the first time, and I had a nice time eyeing his 5D and 15mm fish. So that was cool. Also, I gave flash a real try for the first time (I knew the performers and pretty much everyone else there, so didn't feel too bashful about blasting away like a noink, that and Joel was there flashing away for the first band too).
Some of the photos are a little soft due to the focus being off and/or motion blur, but it was a rather dynamic environment, so I'm reasonably happy with the results. I was using my 580EX on camera and bouncing off of anything I could find (my grey t-shirt, walls, keyboards). Settings for the most part were Av (-2EC), f/2.8, ISO800, Eval metering...all taken with the 28/1.8. Suggestions/comments always appreciated.

1. This one is cropped to an 8x10 ratio, which I don't normally do, but I think it works okay for this image. Focus is a little off too, but I like it.

3. His face is oof in this one (he was moving pretty quickly). This is one of the images that I used a random keyboard to bounce my flash off of.
