Does anyone know a good vocal mic for live applications and doesnt sound so muffled through a PA...I have an audio technica and it sounds not crisp at all and ive tried the sm58 too and its just not crisp enough does anyone have any suggestions.

check out the upper end Shure models... my friend uses the 81beta+ i believe or the 83 i cant remember.. a bit more expensive, but if you're relying heavily on vocals, you may want to invest a couple hundred more into a VERY good vocal mic...

ALSO

Remember... there's quite a difference in recording vocal mics and performing vocal mics 8)

Look into an AKG as well. I just picked up a C535EB and it is stunning. I found that I was shouting with my Sennheiser and I can get a great sound without straining my voice with the new one.

Good luck.
