:( i was messing with weird sounds and frequencies last night on my laptop using headphones and today i cant hear out of my right ear for anything and i have a big ringing. its scarey even though i know itll prolly go away by tomorrow its still scarey to be threatened with losing your hearing when you love sound so much. makes me think of that famous deaf piano dude :) (think hard) |

ya that IS scary... if anything happened to my hearing i'd be pretty pissed! |

I just descovered a strange black spot on the bottom of my foot which wasn't there yesterday :O |

Be careful man. Just don't turn your headphones up too loud. You'll probably be alright by the next day or so. I went to a show one time and it was so loud that when I left, I was really scared that I had lost some hearing, but it came back. I wear earplugs now. |

my left ear is still a bit congested, probably due to my exposure to water in the shower before i go to bed. it got congested whenever i rested my head on the pillow on the left side ó_ò |

As I TYPE this, I'm listening to some Mega Man music on my headphones... it is LOUD. I expect hearing problems someday. I used to have ringing in my ears, but it's died down, oddly... my ears seem pretty perfect now. I'd kill myself if I went deaf, I really would. |

all i know is that when you hear a ringing in your ear its the little hair follicles in your ear that are dyeing (popping) and they dont grow back too fast either you realy shouldnt be firing high mid or low frequencies in to your head for long period of time coz your gonnah lose the best musical critic youll ever know (and thats your ears) |

I went to a Ken ishi concert and when it was over i had reduced hearing in my right ear. It recovered a little bit, but it's not as good as it used to be. I was shocked that that much damage could be done in that little time (esp. since i'm only 22). It is really annoying, because i make a lot of music and when i'm trying to mix a track i can't decide wether the levels on the right and left speaker are equal. wear earplugs. |

I listen to a lot of japanese onkyo stuff: all high pitched piercing tones (filament, iso, sachiko M, Toshimaru Nakamura, Otomo Yoshihide even Koji Asano) and it's devastating to ears, especially on headphones. But my hearing is already damaged from 20 years of listening to metal. Live fast, die young... When Im deaf Ill just kill myself. |

Meho: you shouldn't encourage irresponsible behaviour. Shame on you. |

Jonesy: This is a revolutionary way of taking control of our bodies back from the system who owns them and wants them maintained "properly" in order to have us functional for its own ends. |

Don't kill yourself if you go deaf. I reckon they'll find a cure within our lifetimes. |

By "they" I mean... You know, the people that do stuff, man. |

Yeah, it's "them" we rebel against, Peter. By the way, nice Richard Pryor pic. |

spare a thought for us guys with tinnitus. and make sure you don't go the same way - its a real pain in the arse. doesn't stop me enjoying music though. when i saw squarepusher last year i was deaf in one ear for 4 days. wouldn't have minded if i had enjoyed it. but i didn't |

Thanks. Nice pic of... something. Whatever it is, it's pretty funky. Looks like a Japanese album cover, complete with obi strip. |

Lizard: what, pusher sicked? Would you mind expanding on that? |

Peter: oh, yeah it's a Merzbow album cover: Music for bondage performance. So no Obi, but shackles. |

No, they want us to destroy our faculties so that we can't hear revolutionary speeches |
||||||||
|
|

|

And they bombard us with advertisements for crap we don't need, in order to obscure the vision in our third eyes. |

No, no, no, no: they need our bodies functioning with perfect economy. Again something Baudrillard analysed in "Symbolical interchange and death" (I know I sound like a worst namedropping postmodernist wanabe, but its just that these things are much better discussed than I ever could, and besides there is not enough space/ time here for serious discussions) |

Yes, you're right. So, to lighten the mood: poo, bum, wee. |

manchester planet k last year some time just after my red hot car came out. the sound system was dreadful. constant walls of white noise. just not very good. i had expected him to be this great performer - from reviews i had read in the past, but it was extremely disappointing (and i've been a fan for ages but have never managed to see him before). as i remember the only people who enjoyed it were the pill heads. shame |

Huh, shit. Sad to hear that. It must have been a grave disappointment. Have you voted for him in the contest on this MB? |

Loud noises are scary... I've never been to a really loud show or anything, and if I did, I'd probably wear ear plugs or something... even a frickin' school dance (when I was in those horrible grade school years) would hurt my poor, delicate little ears. |

always wear eraplugs if you go to conserts.. well its easy to forget when you are drunk |

Ringing in the ears is not a result of 'hair follicle death' it is due to otoacoustic emissions made by hyperactive molecular amplifiers on the outer hair cells on the organ of Corti in the inner ear. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so whats tinnitus then? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tinnitus occurs when there is extensive damage of the inner ear which results in constant induction of the cochlear amplifiers. |
