the flaming lips!

Were you plugged into a guitar amp when you got zapped? Being a human conductor in between an amp and a microphone is not very safe. Might be this. http://www.guitarnuts.com/technical/electrical/safety/index.php

Either that or it's massive static buildup from furry carpets.

If it's static electricity you can just let the tip of one of your fingers tough the mesh constantly and the charge should not be able to build up.
