[QUOTE="Matt Lillie, post: 57872, member: 84"] Re: Earplugs and loud bands I just put up a post on my rarely used FB page regarding this insanity. It was triggered by a musician's post about quitting a band because they are too loud. What really drives me crazy are the excuses given for big foam plugs (there's too much high end, cymbals are killing me) and amps pointed at the back of their knees (it's too bright when it's pointed at my ears). Well, the audience isn't stuffing an inch of foam in their ears and they (and I) hear your band as it actually is, not with 30dB less high end and cymbal wash. If I was smart enough to figure out how to redact names, I would love to put this thread up on FB. I'm sure it wouldn't be worth the effort anyways, as all of our complaints, comments and suggestions are falling on deaf ears. [/QUOTE]
