I think your best bet may be to go for everyone wearing headphones fed from mixes on the console... The number of mixes you'll need will depend on the way you work and perform together, but with this approach you can at least turn the PA down leaving the headphones only to block the drummer... Essentially you're creating a recording studio environment.

Hope this helps

this might be a stupid question but im assuming that all channels being used should be on (and set to some sort of level?) before attempting to ring the PA system?

[SoundcraftUK]

Yes; the console is set up (and ideally artists would be on stage) in a 'show ready' state to best mimic the stage conditions before you 'ring'.

The reason for the artists being around is they can influence the feedback through their position in relation to the mics and speakers.
