Shinedown - NYS Fair Aug 29, 2009!

I got an AWESOME opportunity to photograph the Shinedown concert at the NYS State Fair this year. I did this for a charity called the Forsaken Generation Youth Homeless Project, it's got to do with the homeless youth in the US and spreading awareness about it. The drummer, Barry Kerch wore a t-shirt to support the cause This is at least on step in the right direction!

It looks like there may be many more shows like this lined up in my future. I'm keepin my fingers crossed.

The official photo count from this concert is 1642!

I think this might be my favorite shot of the entire night:

Some more! I'm not sure how many more I'll get to today because I'm moving. If I still have internet at the new place more will be uploaded tonight!

Pretty nice shots! I've shot Shinedown a couple of times this year, and they're a lot of fun. Very good in concert and put a lot of energy into every show.

1642 shots! Did you get to shoot the entire show?

Thanks! They really do have a good stage presence! It was an amazing show

And yuppers! I did!

Hey those really are some awesome shots. I was at the show last night and it was truly incredible. By any chance do you have a facebook or something where you would upload all of the photos too? I would be very interested in seeing all the pictures you took, the ones here are very good.

Great job. I've heard alot about this band and would like to see them in concert. Photographing them would be even better.

Nice series.
I like #1 and 3.

Unfortunately I have not been able to edit any more pictures because I am moving. Hopefully will have them done by the end of the week
