Yeah I don't mind the hanging around, it's the drawn and quartered part I stress about!

I'm too cheap for stuff like that. I just take a couple of boom stands, position them behind the mic like shown in your picture, and drap a quilt across them to form a nice, soft backstop for the mic. (Oops, did I say that out loud? )Jonathan

My favorite song by Jimmy Webb is "Wichita Lineman." That lyric just breaks me up, being an ex-wire hanger and all ---Say, Geoff, what's it like living in S. Korea? Did you ever see James Brown when he played there?I remember a story about James Brown going to Korea for a big concert. His manager was already there, but James' flight was delayed. His publicist didn't know about the trip, and called his manager.Publicist: "Where's James at? He won't answer his phone."Manager: "James is just getting into Seoul."Publicist: "What are you talking about!? James Brown is the GODFATHER of Soul!"(Rimshot/choke cymbal!)Ern
