Oh man, that's silly. Too bad about the November date.
Once, about 25 years ago, I was watching a now long defunct band in a local club that a couple of dudes were recording. They had a couple of microphones on a single stand for stereo input. They spent about an hour minorly adjusting the position of these mikes until they thought it was perfect. About 10 minutes after that my clumsy friend accidently landed his boot on the edge of the mike stand, causing it to spin and wobble (like plates do). I'm amazed the mike stand, which was behind the guys recording, didn't fall. It did, however, end up pointing almost directly away from the band. Both the guys were wearing headphones listening to the mikes during all of this and noticed nothing.
About a half hour later one happed to look up and see the mikes, and again spent a half hour looking for the sweet spot.
I recorded the same band the next night, which was their last. R.I.P., the Toe Jam Band.
