The last photo was taken seconds before the collapse. (those photos MAY follow at a later date)

As you may already know, the main stage where Cheap Trick was playing collapsed 20 minutes into their set. I was in the photographers pit area when an extremely strong gust of wind blew threw the park and took down the main stage. As of now, there are reports of two injuries. It could have been much worse… thank God no one was killed.
Being at the front / base of the stage, it was the most incredibly frightening thing I have ever witnessed.
