I agree. In larger venues queueing up behind a standing microphone for
questions is the *only* way to do it. It makes it much easier to get
the questioner clear on camera as well.
I have also seen it, where there are two aisles leading to the stage, to
have two microphones and alternate the questions between them.
Cheers,
