I've pulled something in my right arm through 'air drumming' along to the fb and the catholics (self titled) album... it really hurts when i move my arm in certain directions.

anyone else had any interesting (or pathetic) music related injuries?

The title of the post reminded me of the Kids In the Hall sketch where Bruce-Mac, as the shoe shine boy, does the whole "my hands!" thing. Eventually leading to the big "my penis!", finale. Uh... chuckle. Kids In the Hall.... funny.

Anyway... no musical related injuries (besides a little ear damage, though I don't mind it), but I did sprain my ankle (same one, again!) severely playing b-ball this weekend, so I've been off my feet and the couch. What a great spring break! Dean's in Orlando, and I have to hop everywhere! Awesome!

But back to your topic sir! I usually hit myself really hard with the sticks when playing drums at least once or twice when jamming. Sometimes it's a knee, sometimes just a thumb. That's only when I go into to Animal-style rock out mode. And, or course, I don't mind it.

once i was almost burried under a huge speaker during a concert.the place was full and i ended up under this speaker that was chained to the roof and chose the wrong moment to fall.it hit me in the back but fortunately some people had already slowed it down so nothing really serious.

heh! i knew someone would accuse me of covering up the truth... well it was generally all the songs, it's more of a sprain i think, through constant DRUMMING.... I Gotta Move probably got me though...

hmm. I once remember being at my boyfriends practice a few years back ( i was bought a long because I fetched all the water/picked up microphones etc. i was there personal rodey and groupie all in one haha) and they were playing...and they ended up playing terrtorial pissings at the end of one of their songs, and the guitarist spun round, and started kicking the drum kit, to which the drummer then kiced the drum kit from the other side, some how the bassist fell on the floor, and then a symol fell, and hit him right on the head, falling edge down.

He had a huge mark for ages. hahaha. very funny.

And simon, - surely you can get you g/f to that sort of thing for you?

One time I saw a guy get whapped right in the head by the neck of a bass...it was a band that opened for FB...I heard the collision over all the noise. That looked like it hurt.
Ironically at the same concert, I was front and center for FB, and I was leaning against the stage, which was about abdomen high, and this metal object attached to the stage was jamming into my side, when all the people started to push. That hurt like hell, but the good thing was it kept me right front and center, as people started cramming and squeezing toward the center.

I cut myself up playing a very rowdy cover of I Wanna Be Your Dog...I think I still have a blood stain or two on the neck of the guitar. That song is so fucking much fun to jam on.

well you know how it is... sometimes is great to have someone else do it for you... but other times, it's nice just to do it yourself, if you know what i mean?

I once did a very similar thing. my band (at the time)was playing a show, and I dropped my pick. I didn't have any spares so I had to strum the rest of the song with my fingers, and ended up cutting my fingers up really badly. I still have little flecks of dried blood on my guitar and my hand looked horrible

Ah, the bleeding fingers....it's happened to me too.

I was playing acoustic guitar at a party once, just really thrashing away at the chords (as well as pretty damn drunk) and singing. The problem was, I was doing this without a pick! Next thing I know, i finished the song and looked down. I saw crimson streaks all over the strings, and momentarily wondered what the hell they were until I glanced at my fingers.
I had shredded the tender flesh right behind the fingernail on my index finger..it looked like I had rubbed it up and down on a cheese grater or something. Because of the alcohol numbing my nerves, I hadn't even felt a thing. It elicited quite the disgusted response from those who had been listening.....but what's funny is no one else realized until I was like "oh SHIT!!!!!!!"

that's pretty much the same reaction I had. There was no pain until I was done with the song...
