" ... It turns out my daughter was able to use it for a concert she was in! ... "
" ... The on/off switch was great for waiting out a solo or bridge without worrying about sneezing or something lol - it directly attachs to the mic stand - so not sure if I would use this for gigging as that plastic thread would wear out - but for a studio where you leave it on the stand like me - its perfect - no reason to pay more - and it looks friggin radtro (retro+rad) ! ...
