Ben & Shaun Singing "Change" A Deftones Cover

Ben always hands out water during this song.
His tour manager Freddie was carrying the case of water around.
At times I was distracted because I had Brad, Shawn & Neil on the side of the stage for a little bit. LOL. I got their attention though. :):)



Taken right after he handed me the water.
I got to pat him on his shoulder. :)



Still got it next to me unopened to this day! :) :)

A Clip From Wing Ding 2007

Browsing YouTube & found a clip of Breaking Benjamin At Wing Ding up in Rockford, IL, from May 2007.
My first Breaking Benjamin show!!! It was only $10 for 10 bands!
I saw them 5 times since then.
Stood in that spot for 11 hours. Front row on the left right in front of the Bud Light sign.
I will never forget this night. :)

#
The Arch is the tallest national monument in the United States at 630 feet; it is the city's best known landmark and a popular tourist attraction.
#
Construction began February 12, 1963 and the last section of the Arch was put into place on October 28, 1965.
#
The Arch is a structure known as a catenary curve, the shape a free-hanging chain takes when held at both ends, and considered the most structurally-sound arch shape. The span of the Arch legs at ground level is 630 feet, the same as its height.
#
Each year, approximately a million visitors ride the trams to the top of the Arch. The trams have been in operation for over 30 years, traveling a total of 250,000 miles and carrying over 25 million passengers.
#
The Arch weighs 17,246 tons. Nine hundred tons of stainless steel was used to build the Arch, more than any other project in history.
#
The Arch was built at a cost of $13 million. The transportation system was built at a cost of $3,500,000.
#
In order to ensure that the constructed legs would meet, the margin of error for failure was 1/64th of an inch. All survey work was done at night to eliminate distortion caused by the sun's rays. Since the Arch was constructed before the advent of computer technology, relatively crude instruments were used for these measurements.
#
The Arch sways a maximum of 18" (9" each way) in a 150 mph wind. The usual sway is 1/2".


Wow just wow!

St. Louis Arch

All of these photos were taken on 10/01/07.
My digital camera ran out of battery power, so, these were taken with a one time use camera. I have gotten a new digital camera since then anyway, so I will have even better quality pictures next time.
This was part of my 3 day birthday celebration!
My family took me to eat at Ponderosa & to the Arch that day.
It was interesting being inside the Arch. I actually touched the Arch. LOL.
There was graffiti on it, too.


Dad took this one. :)


The park around the Arch was so so pretty!
They had so many trees & benches.
It was so peaceful out there. I want to move closer to St. Louis so, I could go out there more often.


I'll rescan these again sometime because, I got a new scanner & it will come out better with this one.
I am not normally at Baseball fan, but, I would love to go to a Cardinal's game too.
We went by Busch stadium a few times. I didn't get a picture of it though. I will next time!

I can't wait to go back this year!
We plan on going to Six Flags a few times this year. It will be a blast as usual!
