Would this be a good camera for concerts?

I have been researching, and I am clueless. This is the one people have recommended. I'm new to this. http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PowerShot-SX120IS-Digi... The Canon Powershot SX120IS. I want to get good pictures for once. Plus, I'm a beginner in photography. If this isn't a good suggestion, any ideas on a good one? Thanks!

    Even a DSLR would be useless if youre taking photos from your seat. Long telephoto, hand held, low light all add up to blurred photos. You need to get up close and personal if you want good photos. Save your money becaues from your seat its virtually impossible to get good images with any camera.

    as the others said, the best cameras in the world don't take the best concert pics. If there is a lot of light, it might take some good shots with the telephoto setting, but if it's dark, clear pictures in a concert are difficult to achieve.

    Maybe if it was out doors during the day. Other wise you'd need a D/SLR with a fast lens. And be aware that many places don't allow cameras.
