Going to a concert this weekend , will be 11 rows from the stage. Concert will be at night and it will be in an outdoor amphitheatre . What film should I load and what settings on this Pentax should I use? This camera is a loaner. I havent used a film camera in 20+ years.

Depend if it at day or night.
Day iso 100 Fuji films if it bright sun cover 200 or 400
Night 400-800

Do not use the flash, the usual pop-up flash have a range of 12-15 ‘’
I would shoot in Av mode ( put the smallest number down so you get the biggest speed) This will reduce the possible shaking.

Your film can be pushed also for faster shutter speeds. for example a film with an ASA of 100. I recomended you set your camera at 200 ASA
