I have used Nikon D80 with 50mm 1.8 lens in several indoor concerts. I set the ISO to 1600 because usually Flash is not allowed in concerts. Anyway, even an external flash is not strong enough to reach from 30 or 40 feet. If you have or can get a Nikon D90, it is even better in low light situation.
If you are really on a budget and want the best quality for the money, check out the P&S Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 [with a Leica lense] which has more features than most pro DSLRs that require auxiliary lenses not even equal to the single initial full-range lense that comes with the FZ28. It is reviewed at:http://www.steves-digicams.com/2008_revi…
It just came out on November 4, 2008.
It’s an all-in-one 10.1 megapixel digital camera which includes (i) built-in image stabilization; (ii) HD720 quality video [Quicktime] which permits zooming while videoing skateboarding, action sports; (iii) a 18x zoom [27 - 486 mm (35mm equiv.)] “Leica” lense for nature and concert photography; (iv) up to 0.39 inch macro option; (v) up to 6400 ASA; (vi) takes up to 380 pictures per 120 min. battery charge; (vii) has a “burst speed” of 13 fps; and sells new for $280 at amazon.com. in the U.S.
Here’s an actual handheld picture of the moon:http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/…
Good luck!
Surely you will get better from Olympus cause i use that one and also i often goes to concert as well and took pics from that. And that are awesome for details please visit http://www.wmbiz.com/Olympus-Stylus-Toug…http://www.wmbiz.com/OLYMPUS-FE-340-Pink…
I’d agree with another poster and say the Nikon D90. It’s not exactly small or light, but it’ll do the job and has a video record mode too.

I don’t know what camera to use but don’t use your phone i used mine at a Fall Out Boy concert and the playback I got was awful, the sound and picture was terrible
