Re: [Harp-L] Loud amp for loud band (tinitus)

[BiscuitBoy714@xxxxxxx]

I'll go along with this except I wouldn't quit the  band until I had another 
gig. Just me. I'm an old guy and I spent waaaay too  much time being blasted 
by Marshall amps, Fenders too for that matter. Fenders  can get too loud too ya 
know. I have tinitus from amps, guns, hot rods and an ex  wife. Anyway, save 
your hearing. It's not fun trying to go to sleep with that  ringing in your 
ears that won't go away. I have to sleep with a fan going to  break up the 
ringing in my ears now. There are things that are supposed to help  tinitus 
nowadays, but I'm not having much luck. Anybody have any suggestions  that I may have 
not heard about for tinitus???

Earplugs?  In-ear monitors?

Life is too much fun to be  crippled with hearing loss or tintinitis.
If your bandmates won't lower the  stage volume, I'd quit the band.
You can still have a high FOH SPL, but you  don't have to ruin your own
ears to sound  good.
