Okay, first off, whether you have a rock star crush on him or not, you did have a nice time with him and it's totally understandable that you might want to talk to him again. I have a lot of friends in bands and I've noticed that there seem to be two main camps of people: those who are all OMG! He(she)'s in a band! I want to be his(her) friend! These people get so hyped on the "in a band" aspect that they stop seeing the person in a band as a person

Thank you! That's actually a really good idea (and I certainly hadn't even come close to that). We do have friends in common - my friend is good buddies with the singer, so it's not a direct connection, but it's close enough for a start.
I didn't much like the myspace idea, but that was the only 'connection' I could think of. I do use myspace to keep up with some friends far off and to check out when concerts are going to be, but it seems a bit too much like something a high school kid would do, chase someone over the internet; kind of like using a text message to break up, that sort of thing. Thank you again!
Well, honestly, if you already sent your pictures to the band's myspace page, (That's assuming that his band actually manages their own myspace page - the way myspace is set up you don't actually have to be in the band to own the band's myspace page, so check on that first.) then he already has a way to contact you! I would just add a "thank you" note to the effect that you had a very nice time and wouldn't mind hanging out again sometime.
That's casual and not too pushy, but it lets him know that if he felt *something* too, you might be open to exploring it further.
And just on a note of encouragement: I met my boyfriend 10 years ago on vacation. He lived 600 miles away. He was way too hot for me to even fantasize about

Aww. That reminds me of a similar story. My boyfriend had a friend from high school. His friend ran into this really awesome girl somewhere, but never got her number. After telling his friends about her and lamenting the fact that he didn't get it, he ran into her again by accident. (I don't remember if it was a week or a year later, but it was definitely a decent amount of time.) They ended up hanging out again. Now it's 7 years later and they just returned from their honeymoon. :):)
The pictures were really just of the band performing that night. The first time that night that I just hung out with them, I asked if I could just take a picture of the whole band - they posed, looked at the picture, and then asked me to send it to them over myspace. Later that night I mentioned I had a few more and they said to go ahead and send those too if I wanted.
Found out after sending them that their road manager (who I met as well) is actually the one who updates the myspace page; if the rest of the band has anything to do with it, I have no clue. :) But it is possible and would be totally cool if he did happen to see all that too.
Thank you for the encouragement! I'm the type of person who's likes the idea of love, but really isn't much of a romantic, but the fact that that kind of thing can happen is awesome. :)
