Particularly like the idea of a club full of metal heads wearing neck braces.

I wouldn't be surprised if headbanging causes injury, but that article is so poorly written and the research so half-arsed....

No wonder no one would fund the study. Can you imagine the reaction: "Hey, I want to go to a bunch of metal shows and watch people headbanging, for a medical study." Silence.
