    Human hearing is a delicate thing, and the ears are always at risk from suffering hearing damage from high volume levels. Concerts are a major reason for damage to the ears, but only if a person attends without hearing protection.

It is the responsibility of every venue that plays loud music for extended periods of time to protect, or at the very least attempt to protect,…
