I'm looking for advice and tips on video taping a concert. I've done audio in the past but this is my first time EVER attempting to roll video. My question is should I attempt to use a tripod (if so, any recommendations)? I'm going to be using my girlfriend's Panasonic VDR-D220 recorder to attempt to shoot Britney Spears & PCD. Any general tips, techniques, etc would be greatly appreciated. The video is a whole new world to me and I have a limited time to get familiar with this camcorder.
I was at the DC concert so I kinda know how the show goes, and security was pretty lax there - but any stealthing tips (as I said, I know audio stealthing) would also be appreciated (but probably better sent via PM or e-mail).
