Need a camera bag for taking to gigs.

I have a mini trekker, but it is not really suitable for gigs, I really want some sort of smallish shoulder bag (is that what it's called) to sling over my shoulder, have easy access, and not take out the front row with my backpack.:lol:

How about a lowepro mini trekker?
 
Im photographed a local music festival last year and doing it again this year.

I had a lowepro trekker II backpack, but it was too fiddly to get into for lenses, batteries, cards etc.

I got a lowepro stealth reporter D200 AW shoulder bag for this time round.

it is plenty to hold my 40D with sigma 24-70 attached, 50mm, 85mm, and 430EX flashgun ,plus memory cards, couple of spare batteries etc.

Although im not sure if the D200 AW would fit the 40D with the grip attached aswell, but i found the camera and grip were out of the bag most of the time, but the D300, D400 etc are bigger versions of the same bag.

But it's small enough to carry round, and not be bumping around all over the place, plus it's got a zip across the top for easy access without having to open the bag.
 
the slingshot AW200 for me does 4 lenses plus a flash and a 40D with Grip
it does get heavy though...so I normally pack light for gigs taking my primes

if you rearrange the padding you get reach in access from the sidepanel
