If you are, in
fact, one who plays drums (or any other instrument for that matter) do
whatever is necessary to protect your ears and don't apologise for it,
but let the first thing you try be getting the entire band to play
less loudly and, in the unlikely event that you can convince them to
do so, you'll have done your fellow musicians and your audience a
service as well as yourself.


Yeah, trying telling that to the brass section standing behind you when
you're a sax player. "Down", "mezzo-piano", "soft", etc. are not in most
lip-flappers' vocabularies. Lotta deef sax players and orchestral woodwind
players out there...
