Loud Music Blows!
« on: January 13, 2012, 10:44:49 PM »
I just went to my school's Winter Ball, and though the music was good, I hurt my ears if I tried to get near anyone.  It was as loud as someone tearing through rounds on a minigun for the melody, a Bofors 40mm for the bass, and the occasional JATO launch for the screaming and synth.  It hurt like crazy, and now I can barely hear anything.  Should I tell the organizers about this?

When I went to dances in HS, I always brought earplugs. works like a charm.
