I'm an avid concert goer, and take my digital camera with me when I go. I find that, with the combination of flashy lights, lots of movement, and crowded space, my pictures/filming turn out fairly decent, but not as good as it could be. Could anyone recommend to me strategies they have when it comes to taking pictures at live concerts.
I'd also like to mention that I take pictures when it is appropriate (ie the venue allows it) which is very rare.

Are you using a point and shoot or DSLR?
Edited to add - so you are using a point and shoot....trun OFF the flash...the flash only carries a few feet and will only serve to light up the atmosphere in the room making a greenish cast. The lights on the stage are day light bright and you don't need to light the hair on the person in front of you. Put your camera on the highest ISO it has and when you take the pictures, don't hold the camera out in the air but press it to your face using the eyepiece to keep the camera steadier.

If you ever get blurry photos, you can increase the shutter speed on your camera to take them faster. Flash helps stop the subject in its tracks too.
I don't know if you're using an DSLR or a Point and shoot, but both of those methods work quite well.
If you are using a DSLR the top options will apply to that camera. But if you are using a Point and shoot, you can change the preset to back light or something, that makes the flash and shutter speed faster.
Hope this helped.
