I am considering one of two mic's for live lead vocals. One is Shure Sm58 and the other is ElectroVoice nd767a. The band will be performing Blues/Rock/Hard Rock tunes that also include some acoustic songs. I was wondering which mic would be the most appropriate. I would like the mic to be able to cut through the mix when the band starts playing hard rock tunes. Which would you recommend?

It can be controlled by taking down the input gain but once I did a gig with a loud singer using an E V mike and the pa amp burst into flames. :)
See if you can test them on a gig.

By the way I didn't know it was possible to do that kind of damage to a pa amp just with a mic.
