Valo Takes Blood Test Every Six Months

Finnish rocker VILLE VALO is so scared of contracting a lethal disease through sharing microphones with other musicians - he has a blood test every six months.
The Him frontman has regular check ups after he heard other musicians have been infected this way.
Valo says, "When you play gigs, you're sharing other people's microphones and stuff, and they get covered in spit, you can graze your skin, whatever.
"I've heard about musicians doing that, and I don't want to get something and go spreading it around."

That is good Ville gets a blood test, but when does he share the same microphone with soemone else? Each band has their own equipment? I'm not trying to get at anything. I just wondered. Pam
