audio technica atm25
audix d2 or d4

all three are great small (so you wont hit 'em) dynamic mics with high spl handling and killer lo-freq response. im partial to the audix, but the a-t's are a little cheaper.

Yep, or any kick drum mic will be the best, like a beta 52. The 57 is a good stage mic, because you can close-mic and cut down on feedback, but if you want a better bass response/warmer sound you'd be better off with a vocal mic.
