Calls to tackle unsafe gig noise
A leading hearing鈥憀oss charity is calling for new rules to curb unsafe noise levels at live music venues, warning that dangerously loud gigs are leaving both audiences and performers with preventable, long鈥憈erm hearing damage. Tinnitus UK says clearer standards, visible ear protection and basic hearing鈥慼ealth training are urgently needed across the industry.
Andy Hall is a guitarist and singer with Coventry band, The Institutes. He told 麻豆社 CWR's Vic Minett how an incident 16 years ago left him with permanent damage.
