Yes it still does, but my digital shooting has increasingly become a
matter of the scene looking reasonably good in the LCD, don't blow
the histogram and shoot RAW where practical.
For that matter, if the band is playing in the dark, maybe they don't
want to be seen. :-)
Amita: how about shooting IR?

If their skin comes into play when metering, your camera could
underexpose light skin and overexpose dark skin. So you need to
compensate. But I've always thought this was more a black and white
technique. Does it really apply for digital imaging?

Thanks for all the great advice, guys! I have packed my kit. I'm
bringing
all the lenses I mentioned earlier, plus the Sigma 20mm f/1.8 and
a monopod.
I have what may seem like a dumb question, Paul: why would I want to
overexpose by a stop on light-skinned people but not darker-
skinned people?
Or did I read that backwards?
Thanks,
Amita
