Don't listen to the flaming, OP. We all started bad.
You've got the right idea, but you need to keep practicing and drop the flash. Shoot in manual mode, learn to see and use the light.
Look into the great photographers and music photographers in particular. Jim Marshall, David Bailey are the big names in music photography. In photography in general, look at David Alan Harvey, Henri Cartier-Bresson, James Nachtwey, Josef Koudelka, Garry Winogrand, Robert Frank, Sebastio Sagaldo... well, that'll get you started.
Oh, and Robert Capa (another great photographer) said "If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough." This is true with photography in general and photography of people especially. Get right up under the stage.
And FWIW, I think>>136986is actually pretty good. Learn to edit your photographs, though- I don't mean "edit" like "Photoshop," I mean "edit" like people edit a book: only include the photographs that add to what you want to say. Tell a story with them. Your first three are too similar and take away from>>136986.
