Clearly, the only sensible solution is to own one of each.... ...in every colour.

Mull of Kintyre - The song with the most false endings ever... Seriously, catches me every time. Think it's over, but nope...

Use the vented ones myself, but I think both work well.

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1429186711' post='2748901'] Anyone tried Doc's Proplugs? I have some er-20s but I don't like how far they stick out from my ears. The proplugs are flush with the ear and a bit more discreet. Would be interested to hear from people who have tried them in a musical scenario. [/quote] Yep, used them for years, couldn't recommend them enough! Very comfortable, long lasting, hardly noticeable by anyone else, and don't muffle the sound at all. Good clear sound, just the volume reduced! Make sure you get the right size though...

After being heavily advertised as a punk-rock covers band: "Do you guys play any jive?" After a swift (ie half a song) soundcheck: "Aw, have you finished playing already?" Both of the above at the same gig, by the same guy, shortly before face planting the bar-room floor... Although, so far the strangest experience was being approached by a midget in the bar toilets before the gig, and discussing the relative power outputs of hand-dryers... He then proceeded to get very drunk and started getting naked on the dance floor...

Yes! 12th and 13th! There was a horrible possibility that it would fall on my wedding anniversary the weekend before... Much as mrstheelvy understands these things, there would still have been some difficulty in choosing what to do then... Wasn't sure about exhibitors, but asked for Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke, Victor Wooten or even all of SMV... Possibly wishful thinking?
