Greetings.
I have a commercial shoot comming up next week of a live event/lightshow. Big stage, live music and moving head lights ect.
I have never shot anything like this before and would really appreciate any advice that may be given. Will be using 350d.
Many thanks,
Tom

Sounds similar to theatre. I tend to shoot with evaluative metering in RAW, but check your histogram regularly. This tutorial might help you out a bit as well.
