Despite the dark clothing and hair against a mostly dark background, the subject stands out pretty well in both cases. Focus is good, #2 is perhaps the sharpest. OOF object in #1 foreground detracts a bit plus his right arm is abruptly amputated. Beaming smile, though, so #1 is engaging in that respect. Eye-contact with the camera in both photos. I'd have to say I prefer #2 overall, it's nearly perfect -- looks almost posed. Too bad about losing his right pinky, but nothing fatal. You could optionally clone away the distraction behind the top of his head, but if it were me, I'd leave it as is. Excellent results, especially #2 -- maybe even Bad to the Bone. ;)

i like these for some reason. Understanding that there were a few things that could be improved with them, I think they are fairly good.

Good exposure & great expressions in both. Too bad #1 isn't sharper.

Of the subsequent photos, my fav is the first photo in post #6. Pity the other band members are OOF, but I guess you can't have everything.

The red and orange lighting really plays havoc with the perceived image.:cry: plus they move around pretty fast...The DOF is shallow to allow enough light into the kit 18-105 F/3.5 - 5.6 lens.

Thanks for the CC...........:cool:
