boom stands typically arent used at 12 ft.  typically the highest they go is to cover drums as overheads.  you'd have to go to your local gc to check.  im sure someone out there makes a huge boom like that, but make sure to look for a very very heavy base on it.  you will be putting a tremendous amount of weight on it if you use a mic of any significant weight.
