In the words of an old Frankie Laine song:
"I'm gonna live, 'til I die."
I don't doubt we've all worked on live circuits of various types at one time or another. It doesn't make one a man to do so or a wimp not to do so, because so much depends upon the situation and the care one takes.
I can't help feeling that bragging about it in that way rather suggests a somewhat cavalier, complacent attitude to live work. And complacency leads to accidents.
