want to expand on that? are you saying you just pack up your stuff, or are you saying there is a better way to record in the rain?
personally, i think there is no reason to spend money on mics you won't use. it's always too hot, too wet, too much hassle, or any other reason NOT to tape, but there is only one good reason TO tape.... because you can!
Anyhoo, lemme know what the garbage bag thing is all about.
