As to the questions regarding "my" church:
- they have a ladder there
- They do not allow lots of stands as the aisle must be kept clear for security reasons and the conductor is very "optical" about his concerts. Stringing those ropes meant drilling into concrete - they did allow that, seeing the advantage of someone in charge instead of everybody doing their own stuff.
Larger pic might be somewhere on some disk, I'll have to search a bit. Hopefully next week.
And 2nd the thought that Steve has been flying mics before I was born
