Very first band shoot, please comment!

We got about 25-30 keepers and these were the best of the bunch I think. First time shooting a live event.

They have a nice feel to them. Nice work for your first time.

I like #3.

Framing on most images could be better: Missing limbs or bits *just* in the frame.

On the live shots I'd have preferred a few without flash (if possible)

Oh, and the image posting rules state an 8 image per thread maximum, sorry about that.

i like #4 the best, of the performance shots. the other shots are either fairly hum-drum moments, or have other issues (like the wide angle is not framed too well, too much space on the right).

i've shot @ Church a few times and it's not the easiest lighting to work with, so i know the conditions. one thing you might want to try in the future (esp if you know the band, which it seems like you do) would be to rig a remote flash or two on stage and fire them from yr camera, to help balance out the stage lighting. the black ceiling doesn't help bounce flash from the camera too well, so using more light might work a bit better.
