Hey DBD, thanks soo much. I tried in-ear monitors once. The problem I had is that I wanted the volume soo low in my ear that the outside noise was still enough to drown out the signal....yea those weren't the custom fit plugs. I seem to be pretty sensitive to loud. I get a distorted sound...

Other options my be...trying out some hearing aids? I've heard that some have experienced improvement with T by using them. I think there are some that also double as earplugs. Have any musicians been able to continue playing by using earplugs? I've used musician (prof) earplugs in the past...

Thanks everyone for the replies! Appreciate it. I really wanted to try and play again with a band instead of always by myself but I've got to really reconsider. I guess in the long run I'll regret it.

Thanks for response. I asked the Dr about the increase in loudness and I was told that the tinnitus has a loudness threshold and can't just keep getting 'louder'. I can't remember exactly how it was said but something in those terms. Therefore, this Dr. believes the somewhat more 'permanent'...

Hi. I'm a musician with tinnitus and recently tried to do a few gigs again with a full band after quit a long time. Of course my tinnitus spiked as a result. Usually it had always gone back down in the background after a few days,weeks but this time the loudness has seemed to remain. I...

Hi everyone. To report back, the concert was great. I was given a nice seat which was a tad farther away from the stadium field but right center in front of the stage. The concert 'felt' loud but it registered at least at the beginning, barely 100 dB. It definitely got louder, later. I put...

Well, I guess if worse comes to worse I'll just stay for a song or two to see a Beatle and then leave. I too have noticed that bass frequencies travel through the ear bones and cause a lot of rattling. I will be very surprised if I'm able to stay throughout the whole concert. t-man, did you...

Ok, I'm looking at these earmuff- Peltor Optime 111. They cose about 26 Euros but and take away 36 db but I'm reading that they mostly are taking away the lower frequencies. Anybody ever used them? I'm also looking at earmuffs at gun stores that are active but cut out less db (21). They...

Thanks everybody. Hudson-the concert will be in a Stadium so maybe that will help some with the sound. I was only concerned because my tickets are on the field around the stage, not in the bleacher which are probably a little farther away from the stage. I asked the venue if I could escape up...

Thanks for the input. I'm getting closer to not going or listening safely outside the stadium. Shame, love to see a beatle and free tickets. That hurts. From what I heard the concert goes for 3 hours. That is a long time of exposure. I called the Stadium and there are supposedly no...

Going to concerts with Tinnitus? Hi. Yesterday by a fluke I won two concert tickets to see Paul McCartney live. Concert is in a week in a Stadium. At first I was super excited that I actually won something and of such an artist. Then I realized, 'Oh yeah, I forgot I've got Tinnitus. Knowing...
