Thank you so much! Well, you can achieve pretty similar results to HDR only by tweaking "fill light" and a couple of other things when you open the RAW-file. I know a couple of concert photographers on deviantart insist that they DO NOT USE HDR!!! even though it looks like it.

Well, I call it HDR anyway, it's still pretty much the same thing. The whole process of maximizing the details in the over/under-exposed areas in a photo. Oh and by the way, this IS HDR! But like I said you can get very similar (and sometimes even better looking) results only by playing around with "fill light", "recovery", "contrast" and stuff like that. Check out Dave Hill's work, he's doing something similar to that.

Thanks a lot! Tweaked the contrast a lot to really make the colors pop
