What do you know about the venue? If I recall, you're in the Buffalo, NY 
area, so I'll assume it's an indoor concert at this time of year. Indoor 
concerts 
are usually dark.  I'd probably bring 400 and 800 color negative film with me. 
If you have a second body you might want to consider loading it with black 
and white.

You'll probably want something faster than the 200/4 or 300/4.5, though I've 
had some good results with the 200 at concerts. I'd at least slip a 50 in my 
pocket. If you think you'll be far enough away to require a 300, you may be too 
far away for flash. If you have the zoom head for the T32 you might want to 
bring it. The OM-2S is a good choice for the spot metering and TTL flash.
