I'm such a geek as I'm excited that I can get the next book since I finished the last one the other night.

Owl City concert photos from the 12th of April Saltair show.

The show was at the old Saltair next to the Great Salt Lake just off of I-80 (also known as Saltair III as the first two incarnations of it burnt down years ago).

Outside the venue as we pulled up.

Gravel parking lot.

This is the first time I've been out to the Saltair. Before I looked up info on it (you can wiki it and flikr it for more pics and info like I did) I thought it would have been much larger and grander then it turned out to be.

It reminded me greatly of driving out to a underground rave in that it is out in the middle of nowhere and alone and if you did not know you'd almost think it was a abandoned building that had see the last of it's glory days. Well not totally but that is what it sort of felt like. It has been remodeled and is a very neat and unique place. Even more so to hold concerts in.

Its is not a very large venue though to see the people line up for the show and that line wrap around the parking lot and out into the surrounding field you would not know it. I'm glad that I had bought our tickets before hand as we did not have to stand out in the rain for two hours hoping to get day of show tickets.

Inside the doors it looks like a gathering hall with a balcony that wraps around three of the four walls. The floor of the Saltair was pathing-stones/brinks. Very cool look I must say. The inside has a very honky tonk bar feel up in the balcony (where they only let the 21 and older be since they serve beer up there). I went up there knowing that I'd have a better view of the stage since I'm so short >.< and the concert was all GA seating.











^ Yeah that is me. See how bloody short I am? lol! Was fun even though we got stuck at the back of the building looking up and over at the stage. Not my fav venue but was really interesting and a better night then I though it was going to be. ( I tend to have a pessimistic view of new things sometimes >.>).

Would of have more but the phone was slowly dying. Also kinda piss because I got chased off the stairs when Owl City came on (they played last after Lights and first was Paper Route) should have snapped a pic before the bouncer chased me off. Oh well.

I think that I'll have to dig around and list more to both Lights and Paper Route. I liked what I could understand and hear from the concert.







Also here is what most of the pictures from the Snow Patrol/Plain White T's Concert back in October of last year looked like. Not going to upload all of them but this one has some good light and is my fav from the bunch.


Okay I lied two pics. This is my fav pic of that night. Paul, me and his girl Celeste outside UVSU where the concert was held.

Being short at a GA only concert changes what a concert is. lol!
Paper Route & Light are awesome! Almost time for the main event, OWL CITY! Woot!

Robert Wilson expresses the view: that one can find a numerological significance to anything, provided "sufficient cleverness."

shaped by test befallen
given wings to fly"
