There are really good fitted earplugs you can purchase for upwards of $100, and they are a very worthwhile investment. Everyone I know who uses them swears by them. However, if you're a cheapskate like me, use what's available. I use an unsmoked cigarete butt, torn down the middle vertically. You fold both halves in half again and insert to fit. They filter out a lot of the highs which are most damaging, without muffling everything. If you ain't a smoker, toilet paper or paper towells wadded up will work although I find that less comfortable. I recommend these options because they will get you in the habit of looking for something to put in your ears, and eventually you'll notice just how much even these crap methods help. If you think you need to do something, you certainly do. Those foam earplugs you can buy in bulk work too well for my taste, and they tend to muffle things a lot - only really recommended for ceiling-falling-apart affairs, in which case they work wonders. You'll forget you have them in. Kent was the life of the Planet E party this year @ DEMF with his bag-o-plugs. :) Tristan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [313] control system
I did not think the control system was dirty one bit. I congratulated the sound guys on a job well done. maybe not as clean as the ten years party, but it was in a different venue and room sound has a lot to do with it. and your right there is a strange feeling when the system is at it's very low volume level but you still get the pressure level. it's alomost like a phased stactic sound that just surronds you. I love it. I am really curious as to haw many of those shows you can goto and be a speaker freak and still hear??? so I always wear ear plugs, I need my ears, to right work for th rest of my life my final comment. best sound ever was at the 10 yrs +8, the remeber fred played that weird track off of the kinky scientist (donimation record? i don't own it. wish I did) album and is sounded like the bass was on it's way to hell, no distortion, just all out boom. that party and live on the decks 3 my favorite. 10 yrs +8 was deffently less hectic. scotto ps.
