phil, nate and company (different bass player, still w/ ryan @ the drums) came through again after i first shot them as openers for New Model Army (see this http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=253501thread for the 1st batch), and they liked the shots i took last time so they invited me out for this show.

the lighting wasn't as good/strong, but wasn't horrible; since they were headlining, ryan's drum kit was at the back of the stage, and lighting wasn't nearly as good as the first time...too bad, because he's a great drummer to watch, hear, and shoot.

I really like the B&W conversion/grain in number one and the colors/blur of number 6.

Are you the same Narlus from Ride Monkey?

thanks! i did add a bit of noise to the first one, seemed to fit it well.

My choices are 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8... Lots of action captures with interesting composition...

What's this Ride Monkey stuff? Bikers?

thanks! the club wasn't very full so i had plenty of room to move around and try different angles, which is unusual.

Looking again, I think #6 is best of the bunch. #8 is nice as well, but the expression is a bit 'sad'.

On #6, I'd do a second conversion, to get the hand holding the mic a bit more detailed and darker (less distracting), and also burn the second guitar in the BG. (a lot; make it black if possible.)
