Tufte actually consulted for Bose and has said it was a great experience. He still uses Bose gear for all his tour stops.
Also, in New Orleans, if you're smart, go to the Marginy. Frenchman St. Find the places where the players just play. No amplification at all. That city produces enough fresh music to supply three local stations 24 hours a day.
I'd tell you some exact spots, but no. No I won't. Sorry.
That thread is awesome. Is everything on his site like that, or is it a huge outlier?
I know a fair number of speakers who bring their own mics (either to a recording studio or a live venue). Bringing the whole kit is pretty serious though.
