Aside from tennis balls, during college, we would sometimes encounter cheap cutting boards under some students' turntables, which they often "borrowed" from the university kitchen.

Nice one Republicoftexas69, I did not get Sound Garden. The one you named as Pearl Jam, I thought it's The Cranberries?

[...] My guess is that 95% of folks who go to Carnegie Hall or any classical venue regularly can't hear above 10K. Even more troubling, those who go to rock concerts regularly and don't use some sort of ear plugs or even tissues (with the exception of The Sphere and perhaps a few other venues) are taking the express train to assuring they will get there faster than everyone else.
[emphasis are mine]

I used to obsessively protect my ears with earplugs when I went out in clubs. And I have never attended a rock concert for that reason (ready-made earplugs are not enough for rock; custom-made ones are highly recommended).
I once met a 34-years old woman who had hearing aids in both ears. She used to dance too near of the loudspeakers when she used to go out in clubs.

During The Week Of The Sound, a yearly series of conferences about sound organized in Brussels, a famous sound engineer and professor explained that in the rock music world, nearly all musicians are already half-deaf and therefore demand a higher SPL that he refuses to deliver, as he is the promoter of the "89dB concert" initiative here; so he always struggles with rock musicians.
In orchestras, a lot of musicians suffer from hearing loss too, but to a lesser extent (I attended a concert/experience where the audience, limited to approx. 100 people, was sitting inside the orchestra, among bassoons, French horns, cellos, etc. Very impressive SPL indeed, but I have no measurements, alas - when I sit "normally" in a concert hall as an attendee, I note approx. 70-75dB AVG for a symphonic concert, with peaks around 95dB).

The WHO foresees around one billion of "deaf" people in 2030 (suffering from hearing loss of various extent)

I think we should try to pass those informations to the younger generation, Z and Alpha.

(Sorry, this was not humour at all...)
