I wish I would have known that sooner, I would have brought my camera!! I got hassled by security at Starland Ballroom in Sayerville for it.. but that was a festival-type show.. I went to that on 7/15.. and I didnt want to have to go through that again especially at Giants stadium.


Also had a problem back in 2000 seeing a show at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC. We were on the mezzanine, I had a crappy 35mm camera at the time.. I was taking photos (from far away nonetheless) security called me over, confiscated my $7 camera battery and roll of film (with photos of my bday on them..) that really sucked... i was so mad.. ugh.

My bf had to go back to his car when we saw another show at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ - and drop off his camera as security turned him away because of it. Yet.. we went back to the same venue for another show and got in with no problem..

I guess it depends on who you're seeing or... what night ur going. Im never sure with security at all.. thats why im always hesistant to bring a camera.

At the Taj Mahal in Altantic City I was terrified to bring my camera.. we had floor tix to see Green Day.. I actaully brought my camera back to my car for fear of being ejected if they found it... and once i got into the show.. it wasn't even a problem.. i could have brought it in without a hassle.. grr.

But at the Bon Jovi show at Giants
When I went through security they looked through my bag but didn't open anything and didn't pat me down so.. I think you'd be safe bringing one there. Plus I saw a TON of people with cameras from where i was (waaay up in section 310). Of course.. I was pissed b/c I got through w/o a problem.. Lots of luck and enjoy the show on the 29th!!!
