GY HM 100 shooting band...... at DVinfo.net

Hi Guys, did my first shoot last weekend. Heres a bit,
YouTube - Bradie's Solo Short Stack LIVE

I had the cam on the AE Twilight setting with pretty much auto everything else, ( I was running around with another cam).

While the quality was really good, it was a bit dark.

My question is, have any of you got a group of settings that will work better than full auto for filming a band in a dark environment , but of course with, large amounts of contrasting lighting.

Or is full auto with locked exposure the best bet for an unmanned cam in this situation?

thanx for any input.

anyone?
Had a play and came up with-
Iris- 1.8
Shutter= 1/50
0db gain
This seems good round the house in low light, but how would it be handling stage flashes and lights. Will motion be okay with that shutter setting?
any input would be greatly appreciated.
