You can get custom made concert earplugs, they run ~$200 and are absolutely worth it if you go to a lot of concerts. I see 75+ shows a year and it pays for itself very quickly. You can go to an audiologist or look into ACS[0] (who will take your molds for free if you're in NYC). I'm skeptical of anyone who claims they have zero effect on the music, but the reality is they are quite unobtrusive and the manipulation is minimal. I find they reduce the fuzziness and reverb of shows, whether that sound is intentional by the artist or not, leading to a crisper sound (again, sometimes maybe to the slight detriment of the experience). If a concert is very loud they will greatly improve your enjoyment of the music. If you see concerts regularly, do it yesterday.
