filled with character! i like the orange, especially for a retired 80s hair band leader! power to the hotdog!

You can't go wrong with The Foam Book.

i bought a box on the site since it's for a good cause. i certainly didn't buy it for clicks since i got 7 hits in 2-3 weeks lol.

glorified sock pattern is a great way to start and get comfortable with the materials you'll use making them. as long as you have ideas, you could potentially make an army of sock puppets. with that army you could.. potentially take over a shoestore or tobacco shop. it's in your hands!

my brain has been clogged with ideas for an inexpensive stand. thank you for flushing this idea out for everyone :)

i don't see a problem with puppets swearing at all. the biggest problem like many others have touched on already is the fact that most people are not comedy writers. so you end up with a poorly written script laced with profanity. bottom line it's still a poorly written script. in the right...

they sell acrylic / plex rods as well that can be used. not as easy to bend, and definately not as sturdy as steel.. but you can heat them up with a heat gun to get the bends desired.

you could also use mic preamps. that would allow you to boost the volume up on the soft speakers by each mic individually. and you can just buy a couple of them and put them only on the quiet people. just another option / idea to throw out there.. gotta cook dinner back in a while..

that's very true and why the soundboards are so much more expensive! some of the computer based systems do have multiple inputs though and if you have say a person whose always quiet you could potentially put them on input 2 or something of that nature since you'll know later on you need to...
