I highly recommend ear plugs too. For both the kid and the parent.

It can get quite loud, and not just the singers but the audience as well. We were discussing the brands earlier on another thread and this one had pretty good review. They come in smaller sizes too, I think.

EDIT: other things I've been considering are disposable rain ponchos in case it rains, making sure that the bag fits the venue regulations, etc.

Did a lot of reading through similar threads and settled on these from amazon.

Great quality for the price and your ears will thank you. They'll block out a lot of the heavy lows that would normally leave your ears ringing afterwards. The sound feels balanced and I don't feel like I'm missing any detail in the sound when they're in.

If you go to a show where the sound sucks (bad speakers, balance is shitty), you might feel like you're not getting the best experience... but that is on the venue and not you. Best to keep them in and be safe rather than sorry.

I've done plenty of damage in between DJing and going to tons of shows.

2 thumbs up from me

I wear similar Etymotic ones to every show and they're the best! I always bring extras for people just in case, cuz Shams will definitely blow your eardrums!

If I could only give one recommendation... If you don't have earplugs, buy a pair or two of these. http://www.amazon.com/Etymotic-Research-ETY-Plugs-Protection-Earplugs/dp/B0015WJQ7A

It will change your festival experience, guaranteed. There is nothing like being close enough to feel the music - but at a volume that's not pounding your ears to death. There will be more space in the sound to tell things apart, and you'll be less fatigued at the end of the night.

If you're experimenting with chemistry, it's a chance to pull them out here and there and cycle through hearing with a fresh set of ears. Or to place extra emphasis on your favorite song in a set.

I can't justify spending the $40, seeing I've lost like 4 of these already I go for the basic ER-20s

I love em and I'll pay the premium to have them if I forget them or before a nectar show.
