They didn't announce Chic and the Neil announcement was clearly in reaction to him doing it himself. -

Yeah, I’m 28 and have had tinnitus for quite a while. A mix between listening to music at full blast on those old JVC earphones, loud gigs, and also working as a chef being around that high frequency klang of plates, pot/pans. I did go to the audiologist sometime last year over tinnitus and what I thought was hyperacusis, but was told my hearing is fine. Though they did help me in finding that the tinnitus I have is quite sensitive to hey fever, which block up my glands and puts pressure on the ear canal. When it comes to going to live gigs, I just tend to play it by ear (lol). If it’s too loud and I can feel affect my ears, I’ll tend to just ask the bar for earplugs. But most of the time I find it okay, especially if the soundsystem is good. There are times where I can be a bit brazen and just put myself in the wall of sound (mainly at metal gigs, which tend to be in venues with pretty sh*t sound). But I do pay the price for that for sure -

Understandable. Hopefully not for too long. -

Does anyone find that loops don’t cut it for them? I’ve got tinnitus and a very slight loss of hearing in one ear from too many gigs and club nights parked right next to the speakers. My ears just seem really sensitive now , so even with loops in with their strongest foam inserts and centre blocks I still get worse tinnitus after some gigs. I don’t remember having that issue with the rhubarb and custard foam ones I used to wear until loops came out. I want something a bit more refined than the old foam ones but obviously loops aren’t enough for me.. what’s the gold stand that musicians wear? The moulded ones?
