like this situation ^
My wife wants one to wear to make singing while drumming more natural. Doesnt need to be wireless. Something with a headphone or in-ear monitor would be rad.
Anybody out there mess with these?

I think it makes a heck of a lot of sense. You ever see Dream Decay? The singer's mic situation looks so uncomfortable I almost feel bad for him

Headsets make descending a rope ladder from a helicopter before your performance easier..

Don't you have to be quiet when not singing? like, you can't shout a cue to someone, right?

it wouldn't work for me because i'd get picked up breathing, smacking my lips, grinding my teeth, etc.

I think I'd prefer a lavolier-chandelier style headset.
And bob-log for another route (via trike probably).

Maybe there's something like a noise gate for cues... a Q-gate. I'm sure Tc Electronic is on the case as we speak.
