I don't know if i spelled it right.

Are there players who suffer from tinnitus.
That peep in your ears that won't go away. After every concert you can have that peeping ears but it's gone after a good night sleep.
I always put in special earplugs to avoid further damage.
I think that every musician should protect his ears or turn the volume down.

as a matter of fact, I've had (or, have) tinnitus. After I was really good about volume for a while it started to go away, but it's come back lately because I've been lax about ear-plugs, etc. I also agree that its very important to protect your ears. Martin, there is another thread way back about this that I started- you may want to take a look.
