Basically what mcnach just said. I usually work with a lot of metal bands, the kind that go flying into the crowd and such. A knock to the transmitter could crack your screen, or break it otherwise. The sweatband neatly fits over the transmitter and protects it from the kind of wear it'd get whilst gigging. Plus it's another barrier against liquids and we all know beer will inevitably end up on you whilst playing!
