I always remind my friends who frequently go clubbing to wear one too, because once our sense of hearing is gone, you can’t get it back. We really shouldn’t take it for granted.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.earpeace.com/" rel="nofollow">Darren Mcandrews</a>Darren Mcandrewshttp://www.earpeace.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10680113.post-16317912439160078562011-08-08T23:35:15.940-05:002011-08-08T23:35:15.940-05:00I bring my musician's earplugs everywhere thes...I bring my musician's earplugs everywhere these days. We went to The Tree of Life (which I loved) and the movie was fine, but the previews were deafening. I should bring my decibel meter along and see what they are doing to our ears!oboeinsight.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11737564805242417693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10680113.post-86877392374430751192011-08-06T11:18:41.207-05:002011-08-06T11:18:41.207-05:00Oh boy, I love my earplugs.

I keep a set in my gig bag, and also take a pair when I go to parties, movies, etc. (Keep them clean by using a little case or even a tiny zip-loc.) My hearing is too precious to waste it on noise. A few years ago we went to the bar mitzvah for a friend's son - the music at the party was so loud that we had to leave. It made me sick to my stomach and hurt my ears. I was sad for the kids who danced directly in front of the speaker - surely there was permanent hearing loss. Two years later when we went to his sister's bat mitzvah, I remembered to take my earplugs. It was too noisy to talk with tablemates, anyway. The noise ruined both events for me. Same thing at a recent gala dinner. Why do people think that louder is always better? The volume distorts anthing musical and it ends up as sheer noise. /rant<br /><br />--SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
