Oh man, my hearing was wack for two or three days.

Now my ears feel semi-plugged up (but getting better) but I think that's from me being sick.

The concert was seriously loud though, especially the screaming behind me. I dunno but it sounded like the sound waves were bouncing off the people behind me and funneling right into my left ear. I had to cover my ears at least once because it was so loud.

Man, if a concert is so loud it makes your wrist hurt....something is seriously wrong!

The worst part was the screaming. It was louder than the music.

Maybe it's because I just woke up and haven't had my coffee yet (dang night schedule), but...erm...huh?

FWIW, I have a mild case of chronic tinnitus and it drives me crazy sometimes, which is one reason I'm really protective of my ears. I really don't want it to get any worse.

It's kinda like carpal tunnel, right?

Ah! Actually, I have carpal tunnel, too, (both wrists!) but that's from years of being an internet junkie Luckily VAMPS wristbands help a lot!

i credit wearing 2 wrist bands with my hands not just falling off. don't have carpal tunnel, but do have other nerve damage and moderately bad arthritis in both. if only they had made knee pads! XD

honestly, i've had tinnitus so long i hardly noticed the extra buzz that 1st night. it's like crickets chirping in summer outside your window, you never notice them until they're gone and it's autumn. or is that only here in the South? o.O?

my hears were ringing for almost 3 days after the concert. it was seriously loud from everyone screaming and the music!

My hearing was restored to normal the following day. Everyone else must have more sensitive ears. D: - Which is quite odd because usually I have a phobia of extremely loud noises =x

I didn't notice my ears ringing until I was in the car where it was quiet. My friends pointed it out while we were walking over to the garage and I was like "Ringing? Nope." So I did notice it for about a minute. By the time we got home (less than an hour later), I didn't notice anything at all. Maybe my ears are already jacked. lol

Mine and my friend's ears were back to normal the next morning, although my dad said his took a few days to return completely to normal. ^^; Earplugs make the sound clearer, you say? Maybe I should try some next time I go to a concert.
