I need a decent vocals microphone that is good for sharing with another player. I'm using an SM57 right now which is okay for me alone to use but doesn't pick up as good when two of us sing thru it. Any recommendations?

A cheap solution would be to purchase another SM-57 (~$80) for your partner. Otherwise, try a SM-58. The SM-58's ball windscreen may block less than plastic on top of the SM-57. Good stage mics are not supposed to be great at off-axis response and are intended to reject off-direction sounds like vocal monitors and other sources of stage sound bleed.

Another great mic, ( not cheap though ) are the Audix OM5, great mics. But if you want to stay with the sure prices the Beta 58a are great for double sining as well as lead vox. My .02 Jammin
