If you can beg, borrow or steal a 11mm lens that offers an F2.8 max aperture or one that zooms to 11 mm, you'll be glad you did. Tokina has two zooms 11-16 and 11-20, both are F2.8.

Thanks for the URL recommendation.

Make sure you don’t have a UV filter on your lens. Keep in mind too that sometimes the lights aren’t overly visible to the eye. Still set up your camera and take a few long exposures. You might be surprised at what shows in a 30 second exposure.
Appreciate the UV filter recommendation. Thanks

Oddly enough, use a cell phone (or camcorder) on a tripod, to video, while you use your camera for stills. Just set and forget. You can be amazed, and glad you did!
