Our singer's currently going through a divorce, so I know he couldn't afford the repair invoice, or the medical charges for removing a splash cymbal from his jugular!
For some strange reason, this has got me thinking about death by wind chimes
What a bunch of macho little boy talk!
Depends on your situation now doesn't it really??
What if you got a (real high level) gig, you're the 'new guy' and Robert Plant puts his foot on your CRAVIOTTO bass drum and starts clapping his hands???
What if Madonna jumps on your wittle bass drum??? Principle is still the same, someone's walking on your stuff, but your attitude would change.
Not so much macho talk then, you'd turn into a wimp depending on who it was, that's what it really is, its not the act, its the person doing it.

In your example it still doesn't matter who is doing it, the big difference is between playing for cover charges at the door and splitting $100 five ways or making enough money to buy 100 new bass drums......... Terry
Its one instance.
What if Madonna is playing the arena down the street and pops into the club after the show and sits in to play material girl, steps on your bass drum, then after the song she tells you with a smile "Nice groove drummer boy".
What are going to do really, tell her off?
Is she isn't paying me, absolutely I am asking her not too.
Easy to say behind your computer. 'If' it ever happened, in the heat of the moment crowd screaming, the band beaming and star struck, you asking someone of Madonna's status not to put her foot on your bass drum again would be one of the most regrettable moments of your life.
You couldn't/wouldn't even try to pull that off with star vibe like that onstage, 'everyone' in the house would see you as an idiot.
