I've seen the advice that musicians should never go barefoot at concert venues/clubs, given nontrivial risk of incorrectly grounded amps and PA's, but i can't find a source on googles 1st 10 results ("musician barefoot, electrocution, incorrectly grounded PA").

A bit limiting, but worth it for him! Since hearing that I've tried to follow the rule, still do to this day.
