Speak up, sonny.

Jan 26, 2006 20:38

I have been going to concerts for a while now and one of the few smart things I've done is to pick up a package of earplugs. Some of the shows I go to are really loud, especially because I stand really close to the stage and speakers, so I can get good photographs. Plus, it was great to have a pair in my bag for flying: do you know how loud it is ( Read more... )

concert, consumerism

I put myself down for two in your poll, so don't count me as two on top!

sfllaw January 27 2006, 01:59:35 UTC

Of course not. I also voted!

azrhey January 27 2006, 02:20:26 UTC

two for me too. one for me ( i dont do concerts too often but i keep away from bars clubs and whatever because i hate the buzzing i get for hours afterwards , I have above average hearing and intend on keeping it ) and one for mom who goes through her earplugs regularly and uses cheap disposable ones

Smart! I have some cheap drugstore earplugs, so I'm not doing too badly, but if I get a discount and someone else is ordering, why not get a pair?

You know, I voted for one set, and then realized, I could be out and lose a pair so I'd be up for two as well.

You do realise that you're in a foreign country, right?

If you wish, I'll order these for you and either mail them by post, or bring them the next time I'm in your area. But Seattle has so many grunge and punk bands that you can probably organise a huge order there.

rgpowell January 27 2006, 07:18:01 UTC

Yep I do realize I'm in a foreign country :)

But you can always bring them next time you come to visit Sonia, or you are probably right that I could find some in the area, but hey...

sfllaw January 27 2006, 07:26:00 UTC

Sure then. You may have to wait a while, but I promise to get them to you.

As long as the number in your poll represents pairs, I'm in for one. I can pay you via pay pal if you really want. Or by check by mail. Or you can wait and we can finally have coffee or dim sum on the weekend of the 11th of Feb. as that is when I next plan to be in Montreal.

sfllaw January 27 2006, 06:58:08 UTC

Yes, they are only sold in pairs of earplugs.

I'll order them for you, but I won't be in Montréal on the 11th, if I'm lucky. I'll be flying to San Francisco then.

I will arrange to get them to you somehow. You don't live that far away, and I like your city.

We will miss each other by a couple of days, I'm afraid.
