Live Vocal Recording

[zackformula]

What is a good mic to use for recording vocals in a live practice setting?

I need something that's good for vocals but won't pick up the rest of the band (drums, guitar) as much.

Thanks for any suggestions.

SM86......handheld stage condensor with a tight pattern...

I've never used one myself, but Neumann came out with a handheld condensor that I've heard on a couple live DVDs and it sounds really, really good. I'm pretty sure it was the KMS 105.
