Thanks Luis and Leon.
I couldn't find on the web anything about the EV457. The beta58 is out of my price range. 100 bucks is the most i watn to spend. I have seen from many sites on the web that the Sm58 is very popular. My church also uses the sm58. I'm hoping to form a band and play out once a month. I'm kinda hoping for that kind of limited use something less than the SM58 miight suit me well. But I do want good sound. It's just that 100 per mic is about as high as I can afford.

thanks again
