Any recommendations for a mic stand?  I didn't realize there are so many options now!

For a stand over 10ft, you want a Manfrotto 1004BAC.  Lightweight but sturdy construction, well worth the price.  I wish I had bought one of these in the first place when I was starting out rather than the cheap ones which are far inferior in quality.

If you need a bag to carry it in, this one fits it perfectly.  You don't need the Manfrotto bag unless you're transporting 3 of these stands.

If an 8ft stand will meet your needs, I have owned this mic stand for a few years:

Compact, light weight and at a great price.

Lowel is another high-quality brand.  Keep in mind that this stand will need an adapter to mount it to anything threaded.  The Manfrotto stands tend to come with 3/8" threads on the studs, as well as 1/4" adapters.
