Does anybody where ear plugs at gigs? ALWAYS! That's extremely important. Go for these plastic kind "christmas trees", they filter out bad frequencies. I used to rehearse without plugs long ago and had terrible ringing, even lost a bit of hearing (just some probably unneccessary freuqncies), not much but anyway. The heavy ringing after a rehearsal is passing. But you could develop a constant ringing, tinnitus, id you don't protect your ears. Important stuff this, ok! Picture the Christmas tree plugs, the best you can get since it filters. youäll hear the music well and they remove what's bad for your hearing.

Yeah my band mate has a pair of those. I think I should get it aswell. Yes you do that, I have a simpler kind from "Apoteket" (made for musicians) and they are really good. If you use the yellow plugs (I did before too) you'll notice a big difference, the Christmas tree will let you hear more of the actual music. The yellow ones shut out the lots. Good for protecting ears but you'll hear music better with the others. ...I'm repeating myself. I'm repeating myself. I'm repeating myself. When they do a audio test on you it shows which frequencies are gone. They did on me and there was just a small "tick" in the curve. Don't remember which frequence that was. If it's the same freq that hurt the hearing to start with it's the samy frequence a cymbal runs at. Drummers!!!! -------------------- My bands homepage

Im already whearing ear plugs, or headphones (like Paul Gilbert) when I'm rehearsing but ill definitly check out those tree ear plugs. Should I even were ear plugs when Im practicing by myself? I dont think that can damage hearing that bad can it. And what about the i pod? should i just never use it? Also its great to here from MikeM that it goes away after a while Thanks for your input guys, its got me thinking Also Craig I went to go see a doctor a while ago but he didn't help to much. All he said was turn it down. Do i have to see a audiologist? It depends of how loud is your amp when you're practicing... About iPod...I use it all the time but not on top loudness, anyhow,you should decide of how to protect your ears... just not push to much sound in it and use ear plugs when it's needed. -------------------- Youtube
