Concert photography is a bit tricky. If the subject is backlit then you should use the forced flash option if you are near by.
Or try a higher ISO speed and faster shutter speed to capture motion correctly.
Check ou the below for bit more advice.

Use the camera's Exposure Compensation (aka EV) setting to give +1 or +2 stops extra exposure. Your subject - the performed - will be correctly exposed but the background will be washed out.

I'll guess that you are far enough away that you can't use the flash or don't want to anyhow. Use the spot meter setting and try to avoid picking up any of the light from behind the main subject.
