Mic Stand. If it's good enough for Jeff Dunham, it's good enough for me. Also as documented online this week for our Daycare performances in Newton and Medway, Massachusetts, I use the microphone to amplify the children's voices: "Some even volunteered to demonstrate their new ventriloquial skills after choosing a puppet of their choice from our big drum case. Volunteers were encouraged to say their first name into the microphone and try moving the puppet's mouth three times as they said "One, Two, Three" with their new puppet voice." (because anyone can say "One, Two, Three" without moving their lips.)
