Haha, that's great. Fake Mick is in his puffy shirt, and Fake Dave is in his presumably swishy coat. I remember thinking how daggy it was when it came on Live Aid. Put me off Stones and Bowie for years

I just shot my first big concert with the K5 and it was a blast.

While the auto-focus in a rock-concert environment (especially with tons of backlighting) is still 
iffy... there were no problems with the exposure.  And if I muffed the exposure (at least on the 
dark side of things) all I had to do was grab the "exposure" slider in Lightroom and - 
problem solved.  No bright colored sparkles of noise, just a nice smooth "film grain" 
look.

It's really great to be able to pull actual details out of the shadows!

Example shot from last night:

(they are doing a cover of the horrible mess that is the Jagger/Bowie version of 
"Dancing In The Streets")

It's difficult to imagine what will be available in 3 years (if Pentax is still 
in business)!
