  • i got poked by almost every piece of my sax.... it made me bleed numerous times
  • When I played cymbals I cut & pinched myself plent of times, & I bust my lip a few times playing baritone.
  • The dreaded "TUBA HUMP"...smh...
  • I almost passed out numerous times trying to play a freaking flute.

    And now, I notice that my body has a slight lean to the right (as if I am still holding my sax).

    And lets not talk about my knees and neck.
  • On my Alto...keeps hitting me in the face and neck...Tenor always hits my knees when i march cuz we do what PV's Saxophones do...the dip on 1 and 3 lol....it never fails, it'll always hit me in every performance...mainly when we march in...gets annoying.. part of my octave key has sliced my hand before...IDK how!!! lol

    oh and i know it may not seem possible on a woodwind instrumnet but i have busted my lip on my alto when that was my primary instrument...my lip busted and then my reed cracked in half...aint the first time that happened either!
  • How about numerous blisters and splinters from reed wood?

    I almost strangled myself with my neckstrap.

    Somehow I managed to make my fingers bleed through the fingernails while playing my horn

    Once I dropped my tenor sax on my foot....smh

    Oh...and improper embrochure on a sax mouthpiece WILL jack up your mouth. How many times have I bit the hell out of my inside lip because of improper embrochure....smh....
  • I also play the trombone and my finger has gotten jammed in the slide so many times, I even received a blood clot once before..

    And I have hit so many people with my slide....
  • Pinky finger blood clot like six times in my life,.
