We go through about 6-12 rolls every dance production, but that's because we have to tape down all the pieces of Marley. So it's a legit production use (the marley is REALLY expensive, so we can't use duct tape on it).
Speaking about duct tape vs. gaff on skin we had an interesting experiment on an event I did this weekend(I will post the story of that show when I get the chance... it was quite an adventure... in a good way). So this was a fundraiser and middle of the night some guys decided they'd shave their legs if people would donate money. Well the people doing the shaving didn't know what they were doing so we had some injuries and I grabbed gaff tape (for lack of a first aid kit). And next thing they were taking donations to pull the hair off their legs with gaff tape and/or duct tape. The gaff pulled a little bit of hair but didn't hurt much. The duct really hurt (and pulled more hair). By the way this is all being determined by what I saw... I was definately NOT part of that circus.
Note: There was NO alcohol involved... I don't think the guys from the production co. believed me when they came back in the morning and heard all the stories (and found several hair covered pieces of tape during strike).
