Another thing I didn't mention, if you can get ahold of 2 sm57s then you can use both either on close up to the speaker (between the edge and the middle seems to be the sweet spot) and an ambiant one further away. This will add some really nice natural verb (not much but you'll hear it) as well as a very very slight delay. Experiment with mic placement as this is somewhat of a black art.
