for example continuing on with a broken ankle and walking on it .... ok so it wasn't the cleverest thing i ever did ... but it definitely was not my most foolish ... any way how much will it take you to "call the show off" as it were.

Still on here, despite a personal loss at the weekend.
The show must go on !!!!!

I do believe 'the show must go on' however, I also believe that where ones health is a major factor, or if you are singing and you completely loose your voice -and are the only performer, you need to consider your situation. Sometimes, it might be a situation where you can refund the money or have another show. I don't believe that continuing to 'run' on a broken ankle would have make people respect you any more or less. In fact, you could have done more damage. Your health is more important than the "show". I play for a church and I am the only 'pianist'. I have been hospitalized, but believe me, the choir sang 'acapella'. I used to feel really bad when something was going on with me and I was not able to do my 'job'. I have learned over the years that I am one person. If I were to drop dead tomorrow - there would be another teacher in my room doing that job, and the pastor of my church would certainly find another piano player. The show does go on - with or without us.

It's all about the push

me! I bought incubus tickets so i could take my wife to see Incubus on her 21st birthday weekend. They cancelled because the guitarist broke his wrist. Couldnt understand why they cancelled, i mean last year at download? KoRn played without the singer. The most important member of most bands.
Couldnt understand why Incubus cancelled. Why couldnt they have got a session guitarist?? So one very upset wife who has to wait til september

Yes.. but if I broke a bone I'm pretty sure I'd go to the hospital... then the show can go on.

i do believe that the show must go on no matter what. but god, my health, my family, and my friends come first before any thing else. i would go with the show if nothing else came first.

I don't. Some times unforseen things happen and you have to cancel the show.

i was on a geography field trip in Derbyshire, coming down Mam Tor in pouring rain.....tried to impress the lady guide (by crikey she was hot)...i was 18 !....by jumping over this stream...with a rucksack on my back...
yup....misjudged the weight distribution coefficients....managed the jump, fell on my back, slid forward on my bum, mud everywhere, rain everywhere and twisted my ankle !
DOH....
but i soldiered on & still managed to get back to camp ahead of everyone....so i could wimper in the corner!
