cheap cam for gigs

I'm looking for a cheap cam that works well in the low light at gigs
any ideas ?
i`d say about £150 max

i take my pentax 430, but its 6-7 years old now and what something with more options and bigger screen

For the life of me I cant remember the post someone mentioned a decent point and shoot that works well in low light levels. They posted some pictures as well and to be honest the pictures were cracking. I hope someone else knows the thread / user I'm meaning. probably within the last 3 - 6 months.

EDIT :

Just remembered it was of Avril Lavigne and heres the post

had a wee look on the net and the price of the camera mentioned varies from £150 - £300 so you may have to stretch your budget a bit.
