Ok well i'm thinking about going to a concert soon, and i was just wondering if you would advise me to wear earplugs because i know that its going to be really loud in there, but is it better to wear ear plugs or not to?
uisforukelele answered Wednesday April 11 2007, 5:02 pm: it's technically better for your ears if you wear earplugs around really loud things, but it doesn't actually matter since it's just one concert. you should really only wear earplugs if you have a previous ear problem, or if you are in the live music business and are around it every day. nobody else will be wearing earplugs there, so i'd say no. unless you're really paranoid about your ear safety, and even so, it's not much damage at all for just one night. i'd say no. i go to a lot of concerts and i've never worn earplugs. so unless you just really really want to, i'd say no.

Whenever I go to a concert, I stand/sit in the front as close to the artist as possible. Best for getting a good look, hearing them better, & getting good pictures & videos. =) [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]

People that tend to go to a lot of concerts, should most likely wear ear plugs, because in the long run, it does affect your hearing. My poppy works in a garage with cars, and all the years of the loud noise made him deaf in one ear. But, dont worry, that wont happen to you by going to a few concerts. I suggest you do wear earplugs, or bring them a long. Hope I helped! Happy Spring!
