Hey, Zep will never play again, so anything like that is welcome!

I think security is a function of the venue itself, and not page/plant.
I've never been to a concert that had metal detectors, but then again,
I've never been to a concert in Washington DC.  I would say put the mikes
in your socks. I don't know how big the PCM-M1 is, but I would say put it
in your pants, in front.  Then wear a fanny pack over your front,
containing your wallet, etc.  The fanny pack will hide the bulge.  I've
successfully used this method several times to use a borrowed Sony DAT
deck (I recorded Clapton in April '98 and Jonny Lang in March '98).

If you are interested in trades, I have access to basically anything ever
booted of Zep, all in low generations.  Let me know how your recording
comes out!

take care
