Great Big Planes
VersaEmerge
A Rocket To The Moon
Valencia
The Maine

This is an F U to everyone who told me I wasn't ready to shoot "big" bands.. (no one from this website, just photographers on flickr lol) :P

But seriously, concert photography is tricky.. I made so many mistakes, but I'm glad I did because now I can learn from them. I'm shooting All Time Low in less than two weeks.. and a few days after that, I'm shooting Weezer.

Shooting bands as in shooting for the fun of it or shooting bands as in they come to you and ask you to shoot them?

Is the D90 and the video option any good? I even planned on buying it, but i wasn't too sure about if it's worth it.

The photo quality is absolutely amazing. Everything about the D90 is perfect, when it comes to a camera.
I haven't used to video option too much yet.
If you can afford it, the D300s allows external mics for their videos, so that's probably a better option if videos are important to you. But if not, the D90 is great.

Nah, video option isn't that important at all. I'm looking to finally replace the Canon i have and perhaps try the Nikon and to be honest, heard that the D5000 isn't that good at all.

What's your budget?
Canon T1i and Nikon D90's are great.
I wouldn't get a Nikon d5000 at all

Well i've been waiting for my parents to buy a DSLR for me for so long, that i think i could get about 2300 dollar budget for this, perhaps even more.

If you're serious about it, definitely look at the high-range nikons/canons
