Yes you did do well in that lighting, I don't like the light on his back at all, but the face is superb init.

Thanks for the comments, it's the sort of photo that you could easily pass over unless you take the time to look in the face of the drummer. The reflection and concentration is so eveident, these guys worked so hard to entertain us in extreme temperatures. I wish I could pour you all a cocktail and play the soundtrack;... it was a holiday of a lifetime. ~ Steve.

It is so great that there is a reflection on his face. Excellent work the way you got in there and placed that little light! :) But really, in what looks like a tough lighting situation you got a great shot! And it's really nice for this challenge as well!
