Answer
You need a camera with good mics and adjustable sound levels for the loud concert:

Need a good quality, cheap digital video camera for recording live band performances & uploading to youtube???

Lisa Faye

I know several people who do live music performances at local venues... and one band in particular is interested in having me take video of them and upload it to YouTube. I took video of them a few months ago and just uploaded it... the quality is decent as it was taken on my regular digital camera.. but I'm looking for a camera that's primary function is to take video, not still photographs. Looking for something under ~$150... thank you!
I had been considering the Flip, however I am concerned about (a) the sound quality, especially since I'm going to be recording live musical performances and (b) I don't like how I'm limited to only 60 minutes of recording time on the internal memory card.
