All that automatic weapons fire didn’t do our hearing any favors either.

Motorhead gave me tinnitus in 1985. Where are my reparations? ;)

The same with this generation of boom box, bass-thumping rappers. Every car car a stop light with a kid thumping the bass gives me a giggle.
They will fare worse than rockers.

Cream came to LA's Shrine Exposition Hall (next to the famous Auditorium) in 1967 or '68. I stood right next to Eric Clapton's giant floor speaker.
I've brightened up some since then.

Nowadays the high-watt woofers rattle the windows in my house when cars pass and I’ve been wondering what kind of damage could be done to the rap-music listeners considering their speakers are emitting enough energy to rattle the windows in my house or does low-frequency noise do no damage?

Some hearing loss can be attributed to other factors. For example, when I was a kid, it was a right of passage so to speak to contract the measles, chicken pox and the mumps. Later it was found out that those childhood diseases can cause or contribute to hearing loss.

LOL! I remember reading something maybe 15 or 20 years ago: some British researchers wanted to do a long-term study of the effects of aging on hearing, but they couldn’t find enough 18-year-olds with normal hearing to start with! (They blamed loud music!)

Hmmmm.
Maybe this explains why Boomers can’t hear bin Laden’s words that the fight is in Iraq, and that they will kill all of us.....

Funny that they would print this today. The New York Times should be celebrating!
WCBS 101.1 FM is Back on the Air!
"Jack" has hit the road!
Baby Boomers can celebrate that their music once again has a home in NYC.

T’ain’t just the rock music that’ll do it to you. I played keyboards in a 7-piece jazz group in college. We often played on stages designed for 3-piece ensembles. Weekends with either a crash or ride cymbal about 3 inches from either ear (depending which side of the drummer I was on) add up to pretty decent high frequency hearing loss in your 40s.

I played in several rock, country and jazz bands in the late sixties and early seventies...I’ve definitely got some loss but it hasn’t dimmed my love of the music. My wife has taken to calling me on my cell phone when i’m in another room of the house ... ;o)

I had a good friend growing up, and we used to go to all the good concerts together - Kiss, AC/DC, Foreigner, Kansas, Molly Hatchet, Nugent, etc. We would often spend the night at each other's house, and fall asleep with headphones on while listening to Pink Floyd or Aerosmith at top volume.
Ahh, those were the days.

I am 46 and notice that I have added 1 or 2 "dots" to the volume level of my tv, car stereo, etc etc ... so I guess I am joining the list. ;-) Now whether it is because of loud music - or maybe working in Computer Data Centers my whole adult life -- or just the fact I am getting older, I don't know.
My son however already has some significant hearing loss in my opinion, and he is only in his mid 20's. He used to be one of the ones you could hear coming 2 blocks away. THUMP THUMP THUMP.

A crazy Indian shooting rats inside the bunker with an M-16, firing without ear protection, not to mention helo turbines and the shriek of F-4 intakes; hell, I was deaf before I got to the loud music part.
Thankfully, I have learned to live with the tinnitus' constant high pitched tone. Now, if my wife would just enunciate bit better........

There were times in my old band where we’d have the amps cranked so loud I’d have a hangover the next day and hadn’t even drank anything.
