DON’T FORGET TO WEAR EARPLUGS AT THE SHOW!!!

[ParsonAdams]

I always wear earplugs now. When J was touring as the FOG with Mike and George, I attended the Austin Show at the Mercury Lounge. Needless to say, I lost about 1/4 of my hearing in my right ear.

to tell ya the truth, ive been to 3 or 4 of these reunion shows, and none of them were that loud at all. ive seen local bands play louder around here, i dont think earplugs are necessary, but if ya want to usse them, go for it

I didn’t wear earplugs at the show in Berlin, ’cause I did not need some. Yeah, it was loud….being honest: it has to be loud ! GREAT SHOW…!

Who has been in Berlin, who took some pics that night ?

I like most you guys am in a band.We’re playing at ridiculous volumes and my hearings "feeling the pain"(Ha). I have been born with a defected ear.My hearings seriously, really screwed up. I’m using those ear plugs that look like marshmallows(it’s the best description I can get right now). They could work better. I would appreciate if someone knows a more advanced level of ear protection,what protectors does Lou,Murph and J use,any links to companies or distributors you know.

Thanks.

I used earplugs when I played in a band a few years back…our guitarist was a Gibson/Marshall guy who said it "just didn’t sound right" unless he cranked it up to 11. After our first practice in a confined space (sans earplugs), my ears rang for 3 days straight…and I had to upgrade MY amp to actually hear myself play. Earplugs are probably the only reason I’m not stone deaf right now.

I’m so glad i read this page.

Me and my friend are going to the London gig, and I forgot about earplugs.

Anyone else going to that gig?

Are they really that loud lol!?

I went to the London gig, left my ear plugs at work and my ears rang for 5 days!

Thing about that gig was the sound was rubbish, J’s guitar not only drowned out Lou’s bass but Murphs drums! That should never happen at any gig ever.
