Electrical problem

Hello everyone,
I have a 01 superchargered Saleen.so I was at a drive-through for about five minutes idling. And I noticed my headlights started to flicker. Then my headlights went out and my radio at the same time but my car was still idling.i revved my car and the radio came back on but then went out again. I don't know what the problem is.I was either thinking it was a battery problem or an alternator problem. Can anyone give me any advice?
Thank you

it could be an alternator problem, but you could also have loose connections for or inside the radio. check the battery, and the alternator, then move on from there

Yeah I thought it was my battery. So I took it to a local car parts place. And he said my battery needed to me charged. So he did that for me and also tested my alternator and it came out fine. So hopefully the battery was the issue.
Thanks for the help!
