Topic: Microphone between Joe’s monitors?

Hi everybody,
I saw Joe live a few weeks ago and realized that on stage, there is a microphone on a small stand placed right between Joe’s monitors.
I checked on the internet and it confirmed that he always has this microphone at the same place.
I was wondering if anyone knows what this microphone is for (Feedback eliminator? Or maybe for the recordings?)

Thanks!

Charlie.

I don't know about this situation, but I do know that sometimes there's a mic on stage that the sound engineer uses to get a feel for the stage sound, to help keep the musicians happy. I'm curious about it now...

Play some cards & drink black coffee,
How I’d love to see you smile....

It's probably there to pick up the midrange from his knees, as we all know, tone is in the knees.
