My suggestion is a secondhand 5DII (if you cannot afford a 5DIII) ... using the 70-200mm f/2.8 on a "crop" camera is like owning a Ferrari just to drive to the corner cafe for a newspaper.

Just got my first white lens!

I recently switched to an Acratech device that clamps onto the Wimberley plate on the tripod foot, making the lens/camera truly balanced as it hangs upside-down at my hip.

If you're looking to add to your flash set up Yongnuo have announced a new flash that has built in radio AND full integration with Canon's RT system. Might make a good cheap alternative.
Also, you seem to have a bit of an unbalanced gear set up with an expensive L and then bottom of the line rebel. What kind of concert are you shooting? Is this a paid thing? I'd spend money on getting a better body first. Yeah I've heard all the bla bla bla about lenses being more important. I'm sorry but there IS a difference between a consumer level crop camera and a pro grade full frame body. If you're serious about photography (and you seem to be) why give yourself such a handicap?
Back to flash - you can do LOT with just one light.
Get the camera sorted out first then add to your lighting.

Congrats on the new lens! Don't buy anything that's just for the T3i. Make it something that can be used on your upgraded camera body. Save until you can buy a 5D lll or the next generation 5D. This way you will be shooting professional pics for your paid gigs. You will own quite a few bodies and lenses in your lifetime. I hope you make tons of
money and it becomes a career for you or a very lucrative hobby.
