Thread Name: Work-related hazards
Subject: RE: Work-related hazards
A long long time ago, I once read a Christian book that was basically a diatribe against 'Rock 'n' Roll'.... it had similar statistics and crap in... there was a whole chapter on how musicians "work themselves into a sexual frenzy and frequently orgasm as a result of playing" - usually aimed at the drummer. As this was the era of punk (doesn't that date me!) there were some bits of it that did actually seem fair comment. Of course, now, it would appear ridiculous.
Experience (and living with a musician for 16 years) has taught me that the only frenzy I'm likely to experience is the frenzied dash for the door when someone gets the banjo out....
