Are Concerts too loud?

I was in that concert in September 2009. I was really close to the stage and in front of the speakers. Pretty awesome concert but I couldn't hear very well for a month haha.

For a $50 fitting and $80 for moulding, you too can have full-EQ noise cutting earplugs from pretty much any audiologist!

So are hockey games.

I don't think Hockey games themselves are too loud. It's just annoying that they feel they need to blast music in every possible second of downtime. Jesus, sometimes maybe just let people experience the buzz of being around 20000 people.

It's the single biggest atmosphere killer there is.

I cannot take my dad to games anymore because of it. It drives him nuts. It's too bad because he is a huge Flames fan.

I wish they would do a retro organ night. Where it is old school pipe organ and no Metal/Cotton Eye Joe/Make some Noise.
