Change the subject to a "theater play production", and the second camera operator from "wife" to "friend of the piano player", and your story sound a _lot_ like my experience! The theater is even an old church building! Unless someone has edited, the phrase "Don't _ever_ push pause." doesn't seem to sink in... Lately I have taken to using my laptop to record audio. arecord piped to flac (from a console prompt, without X even running) - the whole think on one big audio file to use as the foundation for the video editing.
