If you are lucky, the band with have enough lighting to make it all work out. You can set the camera for a manual exposure, and measure the light average and hope to hit it most of the time. Digital is great because you can review what you are getting and make minor adjustments as you go.

If the lighting is too low, you will find that you have to make the exposures too long and that will lead to blurry images, camera shake, etc.

If you don't have the major dollars but want to try it, you can go out and rent a very high end lens that can get you a few extra stops, and that can help to add much to your images.

If you are shooting slower than about 1/30 you will likely have shake on a hand held camera. You can use a monopod to improve that somewhat without feeling pinned down like a tripod.
