For basic editing, you have problems, no question about it. You can get a black BG with a selective color adjustment layer; choose the black channel, and increase the amount of black in it. But this affects all the dark areas of the image, so it changes it quite a bit. Give it a try and see what I mean. You can get some of it back by working on the reds and yellows, probably more successfully from the original than from this small JPG, but it's a compromise solution.
You basically have a lighting issue here, not a processing issue. It's a cool shot though :-)

ETA: you can send me the RAW if you wish, email's in profile.
