I did LOL.

Funniest shot? Watching the screamo lead vocalist slip one side of his headphones off. To help him hit the pitch, I'm guessing. :lol:

One of my favorite TRUE stories like that is going to see a band where the singer sang in that "style" and overhearing a fan say "He's singing really well tonight, considering he has a cold." How could you even tell the difference? Was that "croak" a little off? :rofl:

What a thing to do to an SM-7. I liked the short clip below where the engineer finally put a pop screen in front of it. Oh man... I think I would have put a chain link fence and three layers of chicken wire in front of the pop screen.
