I want to get a lens for shooting at band field shows and was thinking of the NIKON Nikkor 18-200mm AF-S VR.

The field shows are both day and night events. Depending on how the school places on the day event they may play at the night even. Right now I am useing the 70-200mm that came with my D60 which is not a bad lens but not as sharp and/or will not let me go wide enough on some of my shots.

What do you think? This lens or something in the 300mm range?

Thanks
