Kinda coincidental this thread comes up, as I hurt myself quite badly at last weekend's gig. It's rare for me to hit a finger or some similar misjudgement, but on this occasion, the injury wasn't striking the errant finger, it's what it lead to
Directly after striking my left hand finger, I go for a left hand crash. No big deal normally, but the finger strike caused me to tense up + change wrist orientation, then I put my wrist out on the strike. Man, did it click, even the bass player heard it mid song.
I finished the song, just, but then had to run to the toilets & run cold water on the joint for a couple of minutes. The singer just had to keep up his blah blah for a while longer. I finished the rest of the set in cruise mode
Still swollen now!
