I'm trying to get all my Shane stuff uploaded for you all. I still have a few more video clips were I spotted Shane, but here are all the photos and the Shane-specific video clips, and some Phantom Planet clips where you see him quite a bit.
All photos can be clicked on for full size versions. Everything can be shared with anyone you want to share it with. If you make icons or anything, just send me a link so I can share in the Shane goodness! Credit is nice, but I won't hate you if you don't credit. Just please don't claim anything as your own. That's not really cool, you know?
Vegas, June 13th, the Pool Party/Meet & Greet/Whatever It Was. Photographed from our 9th floor room in the Palms Tower. I might never have realized the Panic boys were there if I hadn't spotted Shane up there with his video camera. The band is sitting down and surrounded by other people, so you can't see them until they get up to leave, but Shane and Zack are both very visible. Luckily for me.
The Vegas show on June 13th.
The first three are from when Phantom Planet was onstage. See video below. The next couple of shots are from just before Panic took the stage, while Zack was overseeing getting the stage ready for them. Again, see video below.
Yes, that is Regan with him in the last four. At some point during Panic's encore, they called Shane out on stage to take a picture of the audience. After he did that and moved back to the side of the stage, I noticed Regan there filming on his video camera. He'd taken a still camera out to shoot the picture of the audience. Pretty cool that she can help him out like that, IMHO. Then they traded cameras a minute later and he went back to filming the guys.
After the show, as we actually left The Pearl and went out into the casino, I practically ran right into Shane. He immediately remembered me, and gave me a big hug. We talked for a minute about my Alien Fresh Jerky t-shirt that I was wearing (his comment: "I approve! I approve!"), and he asked me if I'd be at the show in Anaheim the following night and I said yes. He had just said something to some other girls about not being able to take any more pictures - that he had to get going - but after having talked to him for a minute, I said "this is the 3rd show I've seen you at, and I haven't gotten a picture with you. Can I get one?" He said something along the lines of "Of course! Definitely!" So I looked around real quick and spotted
atorable - whom I'd met in DC and who took the awesome shots of me with Eric and Than from Black Gold - and called her over. Sweetheart that she is, she took the great pic of me and Shane that you see above. Then he had to go. He got hung up again with someone else, and I saw Regan standing there, so I introduced myself to her and commented about Shane becoming quite the celebrity in his own right, and told her there was actually a Live Journal community now dedicated to him and his work. She thought that was great. Then Shane was there with her and they left. It was a good night. As is always the case, I would have liked more time to talk to him, but I'll take what I can get. He's so nice and friendly and his eyes are *so* gorgeous up close. :-D

Two pics and one video clip from the Anaheim show, June 14th. All were taken during Panic's show. I can't remember which songs it was during, but whatever two songs led up to "I Write Sins."

And my pics from the Washington DC show on April 30th. I know
marauder_bex has posted these elsewhere in the community, but I wanted to include all my stuff in one post. :-) All were taken during Panic's set.
