Although I really liked including the spotlights in the first image of his set, the microphone boom (image left top) distracts my attention away from the subject in this image.
+1 to Richard's comments. That boom is not adding to the image.
I also wonder why you decided to go B&W in this image? With the dark background I would have expected a scene that likely works better in colour.
Yes to some cloning in the top left corner but otherwise I like this shot.
Nice processing and edit.
