Why didn't he just wear earmuffs?
>>220266003he wanted to hear the sound of metal
Imagine ruining your life for an instrument nobody even notices.
>>220266003He was using earplugs, the problem is that he most likely had a degenerative disease of some sort and the live music just exacerbated the issue.
>>220266809>problem is that he most likely had a degenerative disease of some sortI had exactly the same disease, it was called 'Don't use ear protection in your teens and early twenties' syndrome.
It's a good movie but I really don't like this Paki faggot.
>>220266857How? I take my earmuffs off and play for two seconds and it genuinely makes my brain hurt. Why wouldn't you just for the sake of momentary comfort?
>>220266297>nobody even noticesUh...
>>220266912I don't like you.
>>220267168Found the paki
>>220267056rush sucks and geddy lee sounds like a munchkin from wizard of oz
>>220267056> Why Are We Still Here? Just To Suffer?
>>220267216Rush is great and Geddy had a good voice in the 70s, 80s, and even 90s.
for me it's ex drummer
>>220266297i enjoy drum solos at shows because i can go to the bathroom and get another drink
>>220267617Drum solos are stupid. And I say this as a drummer.
>>220266003Because being Deaf with a capital D is good you fucking CHUD and no, we're not a cult just because we're against treatments and cures and we don't think we're better than you (we do) with our own culture.
>>220266297Nobody notices? Drums play an integral part in rock and metal.
>>220266297there is always a good percentage of guys (and gals) who love drums more than guitars and there always will be
>>220266912pakies and jeets with white facial features but poop skin like him make my brain hurt
>>220266912What did he do?
>>220268904He hates White people in which the country he resides.
>>220266003because he might've become a terrorist
>>220268453Those are dead genres. There is not one mainstream rock band today that isn't just a legacy act cashing in on nostalgia from albums they made 30 years ago.
>>220269074By that metric there are no genres using live instruments that aren't dead
>>220266297I appreciate all the instruments.
>>220266003He's one of those retards that think music is some kind of gateway into enlightenment
>>220266297But enough about bass, let's talk about drums.
>>220266003Because its an actual instrument with dynamic and if you wear hearing protection while you and your group are trying to sound as tight as humanly possible, you're going to suck and get fired.After a while, like when it just becomes about drilling the same set for years on end, you can wear hearing protection. Its not going to make a difference, you know what it sounds like. Also really loud clubs its fine. Barely does anything.
>>220266003How else will he find god?
>>220270865click tracks through an IEM can help with that, and they offer some earpro
>>220266297As a bassist I am basically nothing without the drums
>>220270865Drums are incredibly loud. You can hear all of the nuance of the dynamics with ear protection.
>>220270924Yeah but you really can't.
>>220266003Smart thing to do is wear hi fidelity ear plugs. About $15, and you can hear all the instruments clearly, unlike foam earplugs, and they reduce the volume so you don't damage your hearing. Good for loud concerts too.
>>220270901You really don't want a click live, and I've never used one for band practice, just personal and studio, and only studio when there's some stupid delay or effect you're trying to match.
>>220270965>lol noGreat argument. Have fun with your tinnitus. I want you to go to your drumset, put in earplugs, and just lightly tap your snare. I guarantee you will hear it.
>>220271034I'd rather you take your plugs out halfway through jamming and hear how you're tard-bashing the cymbals.
>>220267056For me, it's John Bonham and Danny Carey. Gavin Harrison is good too.
>>220266297You absolute need drums and percussion.
>>220271066Dude if I play a ghost note on the snare it's painfully loud. I don't play harder than I would without earplugs. I actually hear what I'm doing much better because the overwhelming loudness without protection overwhelms my ears.
>muffs over IEMs
>>220270865As someone who has never been around drums of any kind, I can tell you with 100% certainty that you actually CAN play the drums while wearing nipple clamps just as skillfully as without.
>>220270865>I actually just use stage monitors and wear earplugs that just reduce all the volumes of all the frequencies down - Stewart CopelandMaybe post a drummer that doesn't use ear protection next time?
>>220270922As a bassist you are basically nothing
>>220266003Cianfrance needs NGO funded campaign teamed up with corporate brand of earmuffs and protective gear merch to learn about them. Otherwise, a minority's health has been harmed by the music industry.
