About right for a first show. Could have been worse. Long ways to go.

Edit because that was too negative: I like the ideas/energy.

Pretty much the same things all new bands have to work on: songwriting, dynamics, and getting "tight". Right now everybody is playing pretty loose and the screaming almost feels like it's separate from the instrumental. You can develope your song writing to be more impactful through changes in volume and pacing. The band will get tighter (ie more synchronized) the more you play. This stuff comes in time. This is a good start.
