Hi Chris,

If it is daylight and you are able to get onto the stage, then I think 
you will be just fine handheld. I had a backstage pass to an event 
called Hilversum Live last week. It was also during the day, and I had 
no difficulty shooting at ISO 400:

(sorry for the off-topic equipment, these were all shot with the Canon 
1DII).
