Patience, grasshopper ;)

I kinda like #2 and 3.

For the rest, there are some points that could be improved: Exposure for one: 5 through 8 are blown out.
Also, the subject is dead center in the entire series. Use an off center AF point, or focus-recompose.

Yes, read the FAQ! Be calm. I posted superb shots of Jose Feliciano this week and they were dutifully ignored for a day. I haven't seen any comments from you on my posts either! :-) These are not stunning by forum standards and many hesitate to give constructive criticism since most are looking for praise. You have clipped the guitar head in several, they are too centered, they are not well exposed (which may have been beyond your control), the ones you have posted are all of one band member and are repetitious. But let me assure you that for a first (or second or third) concert they are quite acceptable. Somewhere in here I have a post with my first band images and while very different in tone than yours you would see that they are not nearly so nice! :-)

Edit: I went back and found my beginnings thread: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=241704 ... it will give you giggles and grins!
