First is nice.
Second: The middle guy is behind the instrument. Doesn't work for me.

They don't work for me as compositions, however, it's hard to shoot bands with horn players so still, well done. Also like the color and crispness of them.

Got to ask, though. Did they play Smoke On The Water?

[Davidoff]

Sure they did :D

It was tough getting all three of them well positioned, usually one of them had the instrument in front of his face.

I like the last one. Maybe crop in a bit tighter.

I know how hard it is to shoot brass bands. I toured with Tower Of Power waaay back and tog's always complained. The few togs that turned up, that is, as brass bands are so hard to shoot.

Yeah, it looks great as a performance, of course, but it's tough for the photographers. I think the other photog's ( maybe 4 other guys, only one white lens... weird :-P ) were all taking really close up shots, maybe that helped them with the brass section. I was using a 50mm.
