Go:Audio Gig! (need help choosing final images) C&C...please? :]

[TinySpark]

On Sunday, i went along to the Limelight (Belfast) to a gig, to see Go:Audio and their supports.
I squeezed my way to front row, so managed to get some shots of the bands without flying arms/heads in them! I used my nifty fifty (though i ended up being too close the band with 50mm prime so that caused a bit trouble for me!)

Anywho, these are a few of the shots from it. C&C very very welcome!
Oh and if you don't mind, pick favs? You see I need to choose the ones to use for my tech gcse photography (portraiture) project!

End.

All shot ISO 1600, and most f/1.7.
Processed in Lightroom, some in CS3.

Any cloning needed? Colour adjustment? Chucking in bin?


Would love some crit

I think #1 and #9 are the best.

9 is the best shot here, the others seem a little off to me

Good composition in the shot, the backlighting really works and you got the whole of the guitar neck and headstock in

Thanks for your input guys,
and MJ- thanks for the honesty, howcome though? Just so I know what to avoid in the future! :]
i had my doubts about a few too...
#3- focus on mic rather than face.
#4- a bit static/boring
#8- hmm...don't really like this.. cant really sat why though..?
#10- ruined by noise!
Infact noise was a big problem during the shoot! I didn't think there was enough light available to go any lower than ISO 1600 and this creates very grainy pics!

#3 even though its focussing on the mic, it still looks good imo.
