We've just set up a new node in a seminar room at ANL. We're planning on 
installing hanging microphones:

We have one of these we tried out in our node in the ActiveMural lab (which 
has no chairs or tables) and it seemed to work very well. In there, it was 
hanging just several feet from one of the projectors, and didn't seem to 
pick up much noise.

Ooh, cool. Well, the mics above are the same sort they use to pick up 
choirs, orchestras, etc, so might be appropriate for that. What sort of 
performance space?
