Taking a few pictures is cool, but people who record the whole show on their smart phones are so annoying and disrespectful to those around them.
Enjoy the moment!

All my recent Canon purchases have turned out poorly, the sounds gets so distorted!
I had a small Canon years ago that worked fine but now the newer models are wrothless for video.
I'm going to The Who this month and if I find decent seats...I might shoot some video.
What do you guys use?

They do NOT allow video recording. I have seen security people stopping video cameras, while regular still image cameras in use are no worries as long as the camera fits into your pocket.

Bless the people who take their time and effort to record video at concerts and post the results to Youtube so people who were unable to go can enjoy what happened, if only on video, thank you all very very much ...
...and to those who think and love to proclaim publicly how annoying and disrespectful recording is to those around them at shows, be sure to NEVER watch (not even 1 second of) any concert footage recorded and posted by the good people who take their time and effort to post it.

It's annoying to see the brightly-lit LCD screen viewfinder in front of you or on the side while you're trying to watch a show. If people could find a way to tape without using a lit-up screen and could do it discreetly, it wouldn't be as annoying/distracting. Unfortunately, I haven't seen such a set-up in use.

I had good results with the Sony DSC HX20v
video: [www.youtube.com]
Out of Control Dusseldorf. The wobbly effect is due to Youtube. Sorry about that.

You Got the Silver Pinkpop
It is small, switches on almost immediately and has great stabilisation. Sound is ok. A downside of the sony is that it takes time to process photos, so it is not immediately ready for the next still image.
After that Sony died last year I switched back to Lumix TZ70 by Panasonic, but I must say I regret that a little bit. The Panasonic loses focus a lot. Unfortunately the T70 was in repair when I went to Cuba.
This is (OT) footage of the T70:

Please be considerate towards people around you. Don't hold the cam higher than necessary.

What would be a good non-video camera for concerts? One that would not show the washed look on the faces of the performers?
