I paid around $650 about three years ago, and no it's not a professional model. There's one on eBay right now:

You generally don't want to use flash at a concert. The performer is very well lit, and it's unnecessary. Besides, the dinky flash units in most consumer model cameras are good for about 15 feet max. I was no closer to Shania than 30 feet.

I turned off the flash on my camera for all the pictures. I also had to manually adjust the exposure to darken the shots. With Shania so well lit and the background completely black the metering tended to drastically overexpose.
