Whenever I switch ear when talking on the phone I scare myself at how different each ear sounds. Weirdly different frequency response. And actually despite the first paragraph I've suspected for a while I don't hear bass too well myself, now I think about it. Maybe time I got rid of the bass guitar...
Every time I have got earplugs more expensive than cheap pharmacy foam plugs I have lost one of the pair within weeks (even though I've never noticed losing the foam ones). Do any of the really expensive ones come with magic anti-stupidity properties? Because if not I'd better not buy them.

For a long time I just didn't play with very loud bands, so I don't think I felt the need. But now I'm realizing the aural havoc it can cause to bring the rock.

When I had my appointment he said I'd lost lows too, but he said the curve was pretty usual for someone of my age (31)

Wolfram syndrome? It's far too late for half-arsed MEDLINE searches.
After playing bass for 12 years I've finally got 'round to buying some Etymotic ER20s, and I'm pretty impressed. I wish I'd done it earlier though, and started saving for the proper ones.

i started wearing my plugs again recently after not wearing them for awhile. it's hard, last night they made it sound like my backbeat didn't have any meat to it so i was overplaying.
then i took out only the right one for the second set (the stupid loud-ass monitor was on my left) and that helped a lot. then i took out the other one for the third set, and that was dumb.

I need EARPLUG ADVICEPrepare to be horrified: I went to the doctor for a routine physical and discovered that there is a small piece of one of my old earplugs lodged inside my head/ear canal. I have to go see an ENT to pry it out. Not painful (yet) but also -- not cool!
I am desperately ISO advice for earplugs that are* one piece (none of it falls off inside my ear)* durable (long lifespan)* effective (these will be used while I am playing drums)
Suggestions!? Recommendations?

I really like my Ear Peace set - https://www.earpeace.com - I am enjoying loud metal shows much more now! Great for drumming, too, LL!
