Same story for me. Water in the ear feeling for several days, except it was a punk concert and I was just young and didn't realize. Persistent low ringing in my ears ever since. Now I wear earplugs any time I'm at a concert.
I do, to an extent, blame the venues for concerts for not indicating that hearing damage is possible. At 16, it's not something you would even consider. At the bare minimum, offer earplugs when you're checking tickets. A lot of smaller, grassroots festivals do.
- drones 2y agoI don't understand why these major concerts don't have disposable earplug booths. These things probably cost <1 cent to make. You could 50x markup your supply, they'd still be cheap, and attendees would still have their hearing.
