Bare Minimum Config for Interviews

Newbie questions sorry....

Should I:

a) Simultaneoulsy mount a shotgun on the shoe of my DVX *and* record with a lav?

b ) Is it possible to both hold a shotgun mike and film with the camera at the same time and forget the lav? ('fraid I don't have a boom op!)

I'm doing informal interviews with musicians. I'd like to keep things as simple as possible.

Thanks

thanks for your input frosch

@ c-stand: i was hoping to maybe not have them nailed to their seats :-/

@ juggling duties: what you mean putting the camera on the tripod and then the mic on a stand? (i'm inferring that one can't hold a shotgun *and* point the camera feasibly)

i think i may have to try a lav/shotgun-mic-mounted on camera combo.

do you happen to know if a sennheiser me66 will protrude in front of the camera if mounted on top?

thanks tom.

next question then!

can you reccommend a directional mic i could mount on the camera to double up with a lav?
