Local Elvis Impersonator

I've been experimenting with the NIK Vivesa plug-in for Lightroom with the following photos. The reason I picked these, is because he doesn't have any good shots that show all of the jewlery that he wears for his performances (which most of them is made by himself). C&C would be greatly appreciated, as I'd like to know if I'm going in the right direction with my PP. One or all of these will likely be used on his website and/or for promotional purposes.

Just a little background on the lighting. The first one was taken after dark, outside, at a carnival. He is lit by a spotlight, and fill flash. The last two are outside, late afternoon, and available light.

Thanks for looking and any C&C provided!

I really like his expression on the first, but am less enthusiastic about the background in that same shot. Out of the last two, the last one is definitely my favorite.

As far as processing, the second two look a bit flat to me. The first one has much more 'pop'.
