Amen. I learned way too late the importance of ear protection as concerts.
My dad told me all the time as a kid and I didn’t listen because “earplugs aren’t cool, I wanna hear the band maaaaaaan”. I was le dumb.
Now I have sets for gigs and sets for riding motorbikes but the damage is already done. Now, instead of hearing my engine and the wind, I get to ride through valleys and forests to the sweet tune of EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Now I get to repeat this cycle with my own kids!
