Bass Injuries!

Got a papercut slice on the inside of my pinky finger, right at the main bendy joint (fretting hand). At first I blamed my pull-up bar, but I think it’s from the bass G-string. :stuck_out_tongue: Hits right at that spot when little pinky tries to reach other strings… gah!

Put some liquid bandage on it. Almost good as new.

Any other bass-related injuries out there?

One time I spun around while I was practicing and accidentally knocked a bottle of beer off the table. I got a small cut on my hand while picking up the broken glass. I was so devastated about the wasted beer that I was unable to continue practicing. Does this count?

I haven’t had a drink in pushing five years, but I still find that painful

Of course it does.
More than anything.
I’d have needed counselling.

It depends - was it domestic or import???
