dpa 4060's or 4061's. Great sound and ruggedly built, totally stealthable, as well....

go with the real dpa's not the ones by Coresound.

Microtech Gefell M270.  The best microphones for concert recording I have ever heard.  Money does not become an object with these if you want to sell an organ or two to finance them.

"I have no views," Mickey Melchiondo, known as Dean Ween, said in a philosophical moment. "I am way too stupid. I have no strong feelings about anything. I'm really into television and the computer. I believe everything I see on TV and read on the Internet."

Although, I have lately become rather fond of the AKG ck22 capsules for the 45x series bodies.

different musical genre, different venue, different mics

QFT.  I'm getting spectacular results with my mbho omni's in on stage jazz situations.  I suspect no one would bother to mention those here, but they're pulling off some great noise!

See, I like how you think  ;D

However, that said, I think Moke is right. You have to use the right mic in the right situation.
