Hey folks! Just thought I'd post up a few pics of my 1st concert shoot with my 40D.

Alongside my 40D I used the Canon 50mm F/1.8 and hired the Canon 17-35mm F/2.8

Great shots! They capture the action well. Double points for using a 40D.
 
One word: Wow!

I should take my "old" 50D out for a spin every now and then.
 
Awesome stuff mate. Keep up the good work. Props for using that 40D. Another great reminder that its not all about the newest gear.
 
I'll update the original post with EXIF info later this evening
 
Thanks for all the great comments folks! Really appreciate it :)
 
Really nice! (And I know how hard it can be)

I do like that 6 string base by the way.

I do a lot of family portraits, sometimes in the home using bounce flash at 400 ISO with 20D/40D/50D. I have never taken any above 400 ISO. I spose it coming from the film era. What limit can I go to with the 40D/50D and still have nice images?

There is no limit.

But higher ISO (low light exposure) will lead to more noise. For me that is no problem (not always anyway). Sometimes it adds to the photo (and sometimes it doesn't).

 This is taken with a 400D, at iso 400. (ehr... with added grain)  Your camera will do much better

All in my humble opinion of course!
