This was my first event photography experience. Huge fan of this band, so that helped. Learned one valuable lesson, wear ear plugs!!! Man it was LOUD!
I think all these shots where taken with my 30D @ ISO 1600 with either the 17-55 F2.8 IS or the 70-200 F2.8 IS.

C&C is welcome and appreciated as this was my first experience with this type of photography.

Concur!

Thanks! One thing I noticed is that my reds are really clipping big time! How would I go about avoiding this without under-exposing the whole photo? I guess since I shot raw I could 'expose' the image twice and overlay it, but how do I avoid it in the first place?

You can't ;)
Setting a lower WB might help, but will also increase noise in the blue channel..

That's what I do...

Excellent work!! Some really great stuff here. Clipping the red channel....if you find out how to sort that out, please, let me know!!!! :D

Exposing the image twice? can anyone explain this to someone new to RAW please?

Rene posted a link to this video tutorial (http://www.thelightsrightstudio.com/videos/BlendedExposures.mov) before. It does a nice job explaining it.
