great idea! Thanks for sharing the links. I will put this in the announcement area at the top... unfortunately there isn't a sticky option for the actual message section... flickr doesn't make it easy to keep the group organized on the admin end of things.

Should I be pleased my thread has made it into the FAQ?! Makes me feel like the idiot newb :p Anyway I have updated the link so it actually goes through to the right photos. As I had deleted the set with them in while I re-edited them (which has worked out great after all that advice)
Hopefully some people will gain some useful advice though, through my cock up :)

I'm trying to keep this post limited to discussions on Flickr or articles written by other people specifically about concert photography. That blog seems really new and generic so far.

Hi, Kathryn. Yes, howtobecomeaphotographerblog.com just started in Feb. However, I will be keeping it updated, currently about a post a week but will try to increase that.
Current posts are foundational and though seeming generic and obvious, as I mentioned, I would be a wealthy person if I got a dollar for every photographer, including concert photographer that didn't practice the basics I mentioned in looking like a professional.
Moreover, as soon as I figure out the software, I will be adding videos going over my gear for concert photography and answering other questions.
Thanks for the mention PhotographN.com

Yes, I do actually use Nikon ;-)
The Gear Guide on my page lists all the toys.
Bryan of skapunkphoto just picked up a D300 recently, and I know Carsten of Front Rows Pits and Pavements shoots with a D3, as I do. Lots more out there, too, I'm sure.

I shoot with a D2x and a D200. Moving to a D3 after the book project.
I recently have been using a Sony A700 and a Sony A200 for book purposes, but my main concert gear is mostly Nikon and has been since before digital.

I was going to suggest putting this as a sticky, but there are two things:
1) It's already in the stickies.
2) No one really looks at stickies. :-(
So... good on you for keeping this up there. :-)

"How do I shoot a large festival like Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, ACL Fest, Rock Ness, V-Fest? Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4"
part 1 was a topic started by me.
I had an issue with Flickr admins which meant every group post I made has been deleted. You might wanna update it to remove that link, since Flickr have deleted the entire topic.

Longgg (and ridiculous) story:
In some topic that was full of nonsense and sillyness, I posted a link to "Greatest HDR Image ever" - which was a rickroll - ie, it took you to the video of Rick Astley singing "never gonna give you up" - you had to click the ok button like 40 times to close it.
It fitted with the tone of the thread, but someone objected - reported me, and some Flickr admin pressed the big red button deleting all of my posts.
I complained, and Flickr said I was right, and gave me a big sack of free stuff like longer pro account, free business cards, etc.
There have been rumours of it being done because I have lots of anti-Scientology protest photos, but that's just speculation, I'm sure...

So I'm sitting here thinking I should tell them about the deleted-bump thing, and when I scroll to the bottom I see gig-shots beat me to it by a half-hour on a thread that's been being bumped for 10 months. Too funny.

Hm, shouldn't the FAQ contain something about earplugs? It might not be discussed often, but it ought to be here, IMHO.
(Links to this thread and that thread, for example?)

Earplugs are a must! Mine stay in my camera bag and are used regularly.
The ones I use are www.vater.com/newproducts/product.cfm?M=287 and they work very well.

I forgot mine last time and had to resort to stuffing balled up tissue into my lugs. It worked and looked super cool in the process, too :\

Ok I have a question - don't jump on me if the answer's here somewhere!!
At the minute I'm still learning and shoot a lot from the crowd without any official agreements (mostly with a point and shoot btw), just to build up experience and aI anjoy doing it.
So my question is - what rights do I have for the photos I've taken in this way? With regards to selling/publishing/licencing them.
Am I completely restricted or completely free as no agreement was signed? I keep swinging my opinion between the 2! I'm in the UK if that makes any difference.
