On August 29, 2002, ApologetiX appeared live in Lake Forest, Ca. at the Saddleback Valley Community Church. The closest concert to my home they've had yet. Obviously I jumped at the chance to attend this one. Like the Hanford and Sacramento concerts, I packed up a couple of camcorders and my little video camera. I was planning on maybe doing some interviews on video and shooting a lot of still images for Webster. When I got there, I discovered that SVCC is a big church. They have five or six betacam cameras operating with a full video crew. Since this is the home church of ApologetiX' publicist (Kathleen Burke) I figured she'd get access to the videos, so I didn't even bother unpacking my video gear; this was a good turn of events, but I got to concentrate on shooting a lot of digital pictures (which are probably of more interest to Webster visitors than video).

All told I took about 270 pictures, slightly over 200 appear here (If I've counted right).

Enjoy!

ApologetiX pictures from the Lake Forest gig.

The following images I snapped with a little digital camera during the performance at the Lake Forest Ca. concert. All images are JPEG 400x300 medium quality (high compression). I have 1600x1200 high quality JPEG images (about 1MB each) available by special request. For those who have special needs, I can make a CD filled with the high-quality images, email me can tell me why you need the images.

Note that ApologetiX and Parodudes own the likenesses of the band members. Therefore, please obtain permission from Karl Messner (karl@apologetix.com) prior to using any of these images for any purpose other than for personal use.

Note: the monitor gamma for this images is set for Macintoshes and the images will appear darker than normal on a PC.

Okay, here's a ton of Karl Pix (Karl is the guitar player). I don't have a ton of this because Karl is any more worthy, but simply because my seat was directly in front of his position on the stage, so there are a ton of these things simply because it was more convenient to take pictures of him.
