Ear protection for concerts
I am going to see the Cowboy Junkies in a few weeks – can’t wait. Every time I see a concert my ears ring for days (and I’m sure I’m losing some hearing as well). I typically bring those cheap foam earplugs and tissue as a fall back. The earplugs sound terrible and I usually do not use them unless the volume is at “11”. I sometimes end up with tissue in my ears trying to tame the volume levels, the bad mix, and keep it listenable. Does anyone have any suggestions on audiophile or musicians earplugs at a reasonable price (nothing custom)?

You won't need earplugs for the Junkies, but you may need something to keep you awake. ;-) I go to about a dozen rock concerts a year. I find the best way to avoid hearing issues is to sit on the side and close to the stage. YOu don't get blasted and it is more enjoyable, for me anyway, to watch the performers. I'm 54 and have been doing this since I was 13. :-) Tool has to be one of the loudest bands touring today. I found no need for earplugs. You certainly would never need a defibrillator while at a Tool concert. |
