Microphone suggestions.

Our buddy is in town and we are trying to record an album. I am interested in recording so I've spent some time hanging out with the recording guy, learning, but definitely not well versed. We are kind of at a crossroads though. Keep in mind we are really low budget, punk rock scene, kind of guys so there is no budget, per se.

We need to find a mic for vocals. We contemplated this $70 dollar condenser mic from musicians friend but backed off for now. We have used sm58s in the past and may use sm57s this time. What have you guys found to work, relatively cheap, and still a decent sound?
 
how did you find the 58 in the past?

if it worked well, i'd say go with it again. If your vocals are pretty ballsy, a 58 will take the abuse no sweat, and will certainly give you less trouble than a more sensitive condenser mic.

tell us more! :D
