What they said!
My additional 2 cents is that the drummer, while having the best light
looks rather mournful and static and he's not really in a compelling
setting with the exception of the wall poster that Leo mentioned. too.
Maybe some closer variants within the scene might have worked better?

ps, you know that this critiquing thing works in all directions on
everyone's posted pics huh?? I'm just sayin' ;-)



Cheers,
Geoff
