I had a project with a similar problem. What I ended up doing was sampling the noise at a quiet section (between songs) with X-Noise. I simply reduced it less during the playing and a little more during the talking. I took it to the point before it adversely affected the recording. The sound is still there but was reduced enough that while I still hear it, nobody else seems to notice it. (kind of like when you paint your house and get the house color on the trim...nobody seems to notice it but you see it every time!)

The modulation is what makes this type of thing really difficult. I'd love to hear from others who've found good ways to kill this type of thing.
