I don't play out but if I did there's no way I'd put my mandolin in/on a stand when it'd be just as easy to put it in the case with no risk of damage. At home I only have two dogs and they both scared to death to even get close to my instruments so I leave my mandolin leaning on the couch cushion in between playing as I'm constantly picking it up and playing all day and nite. I'd walk myself to death if I put it back in the case or on a stand each time I moved to another instrument for a bit.
