Make sure you don’t tick off the audience, you don’t want to get in their way (especially at a heavy metal show)."

That is a key quote. Sure, there is some stuff about aperture and ISO and all of that technical stuff but it could be said that getting on with people is more important. If your shots don't turn out great, you can have another go... as long everyone else is willing to let you back in.
