DA* 50-135 for Concert/Gigs?

Hi, I'm thinking (well almost certainly going to buy it) a da* 50-135mm f/2.8 lens

Has anyone used this for gig photography? Please post some examples.

I currently have a da 16-45mm f/4 and with all the quality issues with the da* 16-50mm f/2.8 and a manual 50mm f/1.7 lens and a both kit lenses which i rarley use so I thought I'd upgrade the 50-200mm variable aperture to a pro spec lens I keep finding I want to zoom in more.

Any decent sample photos taken with this lens are welcome but I'd love to see some gig photos too!

I am now gunna have to save up for the next pentax camera too as I need better iso quality but I thought It'd be better to have the new glass first. I currently use a k10d. But did borrow a k20d + da* 200mm f/2.8 + da* 300mm f/4 + da* 16-50mm f/2.8 from pentax for glastonbury festival last year which was awesome! While the long primes were good I think I need a zoom for gigs.

Please take a look at my site & my fine art prints
