I have those. It's fucking wonderful. Live shows sound so great with them in, I can actually enjoy it.
I used to go 2-3 times a week to shows at the Casbah, Che Cafe, Troub, The Smell, and other venues around San Diego and LA. My ears would be dead if I didn't wear plugs every time.
lol
I'll take your word for it. I've not bothered to follow the show. The comics have proved sufficient for me.
I hear people say they think it sounds better at shows with them in.. not feeling that at all (and I got some decent ones -- Howard Leight brand) but it definitely made it where I didn't have any pain or anything so it was worth it. I saw The Darkness last year and thought I had developed tinnitus so I decided to be very careful at shows I know will be insanely loud.
I just discovered them so it's still totally new to me. Do they have shows in europe?

How long has he been out for?
Yeah, I'm sure they do full European tours. They've have two successful indie records (the last two FIFAs have had them on the soundtrack) and their song Kids was the theme song to FIFA 12. I think it plays at the intro of FIFA 13 too?

Edit: It looks like in 2012 they didn't play many Euro shows but they did do something called Five Days Off? They played a LOT of shows in the UK but only a few on the mainland.. 2011 they did a lot of shows in Europe so maybe they'll do more shows there in 2013.

Haven't seen The Descendants yet; in fact, I think I've only seen Election out of his films.
Yeah, same here. I go to a lot of shows, and most of them like to play loud so these earplugs are a must. And they do make a show sound better. Especially vocals come out much clearer.
I'd really advice to wear them often. Damage to your hearing can't be 'fixed', it's permanent. You would hate your self forever if you're too late.

Just at least get some decent ear plugs. Those crap ones that they hand out nearly for free everywhere sucks so badly. I'm a dumbass though and always forget the ones I actually bought (the kind Morsel posted).
Haven't been to a concert in way too long, but got my Roskilde festival ticket for the summer at least.
2 months. He wants to play as a central defender now, instead of left back. Can't get any worse than Marcelo/Derijck/Bouma so what the hell.
They haven't announced anything for this year. But they've played here before and I'm sure they'll come back. I believe their last show was in Paradiso.

Yeah, I had them tailor made. Pluggerz Music.
Great, something to look forward to, next to NIN ofcourse
They've been announced to play Pukkelpop. I wouldn't be surprised if they come to Lowlands as well. Not my cup of tea though.
Was he a first team player for you guys then?
Imagine losing one of your star players, due to some stupidity on their part outside of a football pitch, for two months. Not saying he is of course.

My dad got those weird ones molded after your ear too, I kind of want them just for the hilarious ugly colours you can put in them. :lol
He was a first team player about 1 year ago. He had a different injury back then, something with his groin iirc. During that, young player Jetro Willems (who has already played for the national team) surpassed him in pretty much every aspect of football.
So yeah, he has no other choice then going for a spot as a central defender.
I don't know how to respond to this.

After the controversy surrounding that Greek player, I wonder whether Di Canio's potential move to Reading will be delayed till next season
I'm also cancelling Netflix and giving away fifa.

I saw some pics of his injury. Nasty mofo
Yeah, that will work. Because it ain't as much fun when you can't respond.
Maybe we'll be gossiping about you the whole time.
