No disrespect meant but was the band named "The Pigs"? hehe! (Just playin' with ya. 1/2 my family are cops).

Cool photos! Whenever color is suspect (as it looks like in your photos) best thing is to turn them into B&W photos (as you did!). I really love B&W!

Nice work, have you tried setting a black point in a couple of your
shots? Nice to see the poe-poe doing something fun for a change.

I'm gonna play golf with a bunch of firefighters in a couple of weeks.
Now that should be serious fun

Dan,

You know I dig your work, so I'm gonna lay it on honest.

The b/w photos are all tight (aka: very nice work).

The color shots are sickly looking and sad... I don't think you had much to work with. The lighting/atmosphere was undoubtedly bad. And, the event itself, though one conducted for good cause and probably entertaining to those present, was at least for a sombering cause. Plus, white boys-especially public service white boys-can't rip. Alright, there are a few exceptions ala Mr. Page or Sir Stevie Vaughn.

In any event, kudos to you for shooting the event.
