That sucks. And we gripe about all the Fed. regs here. Perhaps it's not all bad.

I don't think the raves around here have any more regulation than they do overseas.

Hmm . . . but, then, again, how many people are deafened at concerts and night clubs through-out The U.S.A?

Ear plugs. Mandatory at all shows (for myself, not talking about a new law or something).
Luckily, I attend no raves. Any update on those poor people?

If the volumes is too loud, my ears hurt, and they ring for several days afterwards.
I have to wear earplugs at several places I go.
The only difference when I wear earplugs is that the bass seems turned up a bit.
But even with the earplugs I can hear every note, every word, and hold normal conversations.
.
The main difference is that (unlike a lot of other folks my age) in conversations I don't have to keep saying "What?"
It's worth the extra time and trouble to protect your hearing.
