On a similar vein I suppose so I'll chip in with a question : Taped a
friends band (gig) the other week just cause I happened to have the
camera with me.

Of course sitting opposite the 2k PA the mic was totally overloaded.

Apart from suggestions of "wire a Minidisk to the mixing desk" are
there any quick fixes like "attenuation", some kind of muffler for my
DV cam's mic to reduce the volume level ?

I'm thinking in terms of the physical fix proposed for wind muffling.

Is there an easy fix for this such as an external mike?

Sure thing, and cheap and simple:

Cover the mike zone with a strip of 1-2cm thickness
standard nylon fur as a windjammer (Rycote style),
and velcro (tm) it to your cam. Pronto.
