Don't Lose the Music

Do you practise safe decks

About Me

Have you ever come out of a gig and realised your ears are ringing? Or have you ever left a club and found everything sounds a bit dull?

Don't lose the music is about making sure everyone knows the dangers of listening to music too loudly.

We all love music - make sure you can enjoy it forever by looking after your ears.

Alice's story.... Since I was 16 I have been going out almost every Friday and Saturday night. The music in the clubs I used to go to in Sheffield was really loud so loud in fact that you couldnt hear people talking (or shouting) above the music. The first time I went out, I remember going home in a taxi and not being able to hear properly. Over time this got worse, so that my hearing wouldnt return to normal for a couple of days. Now I'm 20 I have a permanent mild hearing loss and a mild ringing sensation in my ears all the time. Surely the musicians and bands want us to be able to enjoy the music both now and in the future? If thats the case they should tell the fans how best to protect their hearing in the long term.
