Hi guys,
I'm looking for recommendations for a new lens for my 10D. I currently have a 19-35mm Tamron, 28-80mm Canon and 100-300mm Canon.
I'm after a lens to shoot rock concerts as it is too much hassle to change lenses at the gigs. I need it to cover a large range of length, and also have a wide aperture. Maybe i can get rid of one my current lenses if it is no-longer needed.

I would recommend the Canon 135mm F2L (equiv 210mm). A very fast but light lens. Once you've seen the sharpness this lens produces, you'll never want to use a zoom again.
I've taken wildlife, portrait and rock concert pictures in very low light and have been staggered by the results. Worth every penny.

What's your price range and the focal length coverage you want? Also, how fast are the lenses you already own? There's too many lenses that fit within the range you already own to answer without specifics.
