Well, I agree with the previous post. If this had been a band from many years ago, dress and background, etc. reflecting that time...the added noise and even a color tone would work fine. For the image you have here, I do prefer the second one. I hope that helps! We get so close to an image at times deciding a direction to go with it can be difficult. Neat shot btw. Oh, considering the band members, if any are children of folks you know, I suspect they would prefer the second as a shot of their kid. TomDart.
