Can you name any disabled musician?
The first ones I thought of were Stevie Wonder and Rick Allen. Toni Iommi lost the tips of 2 of his fingers in an industrial accident when he was young. He made his own plastic tips to cover them and now he has custom-made ones. Ian Dury had polio as a child - his arm was shrunken and he had walking difficulties. Of course Pete Townsend is partially deaf and so is Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys (he also has schizoaffective disorder, bipolar type). Mick Mars from Motley Crue has a debilitating form of arthritis that has caused scoliosis in his back. Curtis Mayfield became paralyzed from the neck down in 1990 when lighting fell on him on-stage. Did you know that Michael Bolton is deaf in one ear? I didn't....
