a few years ago i had a little project studio at my mom's house...basement layla setup...
i was making some decent money out of it (extra 4-5 hundred a week) recording other bands besides my own...
a band came in and wanted a quick three songs....and the guitars were sounding like complete and awful ass....and i couldnt make it happen...position, volume, etc...
i get to the end, and the guys offer to help me clean up and start pulling mics off of the drums (unplugged already)
and a guy grabs the mic off of the guitar cabinet (still plugged in)
i hear no pop, nothing...i make a puzzled face...
i still hear the sound coming through a (what i thought was THE) mic...
i recorded all of the guitar with an SM57, facing the wrong direction, sitting on a metal folding chair, about 7 feet away...
they said it was cool, but i gave them the days money back anyways
