I've seen Animal Collective live, and I suffered permanent hearing loss from that show!
I don't go to see bands any more because I've got tinnitus, so I have to avoid loud music. You get used to it, but when it's quiet you hear a constant ringing.
People are going deaf because music is played louder and louder, but because they're going deaf, it has to be played louder still.
My hearing after 50 years of playing music sometimes isn't too great.
I shot with it a lot. I still do now. That is why I am hard of hearing.
I've had tinnitus for about 10 years, but since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse. Looking after your ears is unfortunately something you don't think about until there's a problem. I wish I'd thought about it earlier.
I've had tinnitus for about ten years, and since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse - touch wood.
Its rock n' roll that has done my hearing in.
I always have my Beats by Dr. Dre headphones turned up high. I'll probably be deaf by age 50.
My ears are shot. I'm a musician.
Of course, I also attribute some of my hearing loss to being in the infantry in World War II. It's probably a combination of heredity and noise exposure.
My hearing loss was essentially due to noise exposure during my military service. I was on an anti-submarine sub-chaser in WWII, and we had lots of depth charges going off all around us. There were plenty of explosions, and they were loud!
I have terrible hearing trouble. I have unwittingly helped to invent and refine a type of music that makes its principal proponents deaf.
