fyi . . . as though . . . well anyway . . . sound above 85 db and certainly above 95db for more than 15 min will permanently diminish your capacity to hear music & other sounds at all. Trouble is, the effects don't tend to overtly show up until years later--when it's too late to do anything about it.

And, the effects of loud music on the brain's reward centers are essentially the same as drugs.

Yup. I’ve been diagnosed with Rock ‘n roll ears. (Both of them ... no more high frequencies.)

Concerts were MUCH LOUDER back in the day, based upon my experience taking daughters when they needed an adult chaperone.

Jocko, if you really think I'm worried about going deaf or taking drugs...you ain't been following along! The destination isn't important, the JOURNEY is!

Anyone, I could use an assist with the coding for hot links...I promise I will save it and practice regularly!

My kids even used to tell me my music was too loud. If it’s too loud, you’re too old!
