As far as mics go, I strongly recommend a wired headset mic, because it
1. Keeps the mic close to your mouth so that the harmonies are always right on
2. It gives you the ability to make eye contact with all of the audience all around you.
3. It gives you the ability to sing and look at the buttons you are pressing on the keyboard
4. It's lighter and you don't have to carry a boom to gigs.

I keep my headset mic in my keyboard gig bag, and with my monitors in a bag slung around my shoulder I go to all my gigs with one trip with my keyboard and stand on a luggage cart.

I have got to agree with you Larry. After struggling with ordinary style mics and doing everything else in the heat of battle (gigging)the headset mic is the ONLY way to go. I use a Shure WH20 dynamic headset. It plugs directly into the 9000PRO (and 2000?)and just works! But one other thing - it took me a little time (a few hours practice)to get use to it. This stems from the difference between a normal mic on stand set-up and a mic that follows you everywhere!(because it is attached to you)
