I've hit my guitarist in the throat with the headstock on my bass.I have a johnson so it's really pointy too.he was pissed.I've never done it,but he once played until his fingers bled(just plying in private too) and continued to play for a few hours afterward.
I guess I've been the target more so than anything else, when I sprained my thumb it was blocking my face from the guitards headstock...we usually are okay when we play on bigger stage but when we have to play on a smaller one things get hairy
Doing a drum circle performance in front of the entire school, I split my knuckle wide open on the rim of the bucket I was using.
Before a show I dove to save another bands guitar from falling off the stand and pulled a muscle in my butt right before our set
Messing around on my buddies vibes I cut the end of my ring finger on something. No idea what though haha.
At a marching band event (standing still show) I broke my foot jumping over a barrier (caution tape). Oh the irony of that one.
Almost passed out and fell off the stage during a blast of fog machine and strobe light. Would have probably ended the gig since it was a concrete floor.
No others that I can think of right now. There will certainly be more to come though. Yet to have a concussion on stage though!

Yea the concussion was from a gravity drop, did it to far back and hit the bass drum rim. We ate getting ready to release our album and start playing like 2 shows a week...I'm sure more self inflicted problems are forthcoming
