My husband is an audio engineer.
One of the gig's he's done is the summer Boston outdoor Shakespeare
performances. It's pretty darn funny when they give a backstage tour to a
visiting VIP and always make sure to take them right by the pile of
discarded mike condoms.
ProTip: the UN-lubricated kind!!!!

frequent problem. Every night, every battery/transmitter pack gets covered
with a clear condom to keep it dry.
