Mine was 77.8% correct. It was hard 'cuz Looney Tunes is on the t.v. next to me.
btw, does anyone else suffer from Tinnitus (ringing ears & static like hum) from all your loud music? I developed it 2 months ago (not from loud music since I don't blast it & rarely go to concerts) it happened during a minor cold & it is maddening - went to the ENT and everything & nothing can be done. Seems some people just get it for no reason...he told me to come back if I lose some hearing!! It's hard to get to sleep with it...just wondered from all the concert goers here if they have developed hearing problems?? Anyway, the ENT said my hearing tested very well in spite of the ringing...but, I hate when it goes "dead" every once in awhile & I get the tuning fork sound on top of it - makes me nervous what the ENT said! :cry:

My dad has it, but his is from working around fighter jets for 25 years & not always protecting his ears, which he admits was a bad idea. He has 30% hearing loss. It can also be a side effect of some meds.

I had it after the Orlando show, the sound in there was awful, my ears actually hurt a few times during both band's sets, seemed like something was just way too loud or not right, I have no clue about that stuff, lol. But a few days later in Baltimore the sound there was great! HUGE difference & we didn't leave half deaf, lol. But maybe that's because our tympanic membranes were shot to hell at the previous show, lol.

I always associate tinnitus with aspirin toxicity. Do you take aspirin?

No. It isn't caused by meds either. I'll be asking the neurologist next week as I have been having weird aches in the back & side of my head, too.

Anyway, good idea to wear ear protection around loud noises & concerts - it's not worth it if it causes hearing loss or tinnitus.

I'm guessing you mean your particular case isn't caused by meds right? Because tinnitus can surely be caused by, or made worse by, meds such as anti-inflams, anesthetics, cardiac meds, antidepressants, cancer meds, Parkinson's meds, just to name a few.
