          Well she keeps dreaming of running away

        I can’t hear over 13.5khz anymore… supposedly happens with aging too. To be fair 13khz is a really annoying noise.

          Isn’t anything in the upper range of what you are able to hear annoying? I.e. when you age 12.5 kHz will be annoying as fuck.

          There is a scene in a TV show called Person of Interest where an AI communicates with a younger character in a high frequency tone older characters around her can’t hear. When I first watched it, I heard it. Now I don’t.

      Oh mate, this is my favourite comment. It’s about 32 hours later and my right ear is still ringing. Full on white noise. There was a point near the end of the concert where the band asked the crowd to scream as loud as they could. Fuck me, did they oblige. It was piercing.

      I’m at another music venue tonight, a fraction of the size. I’m basically deaf. Last night was inescapable high pitched sound. Tonight is calming whale song in comparison.

        For future bouts of tinnitus put you palm over you ears with your fingers pointing behind you, cross your first two fingers of each hand, and flick the back of your head behind your ears couple times. It doesn’t fix it but does give relief when the ringing gets intense.

    I don’t get what’s up with this picture. It looks like a normal bathroom to me. Honestly, it’s surprisingly clean for a concert venue bathroom, if there’s something that seems out of the ordinary here.

          If they’re long enough you can angle the stream so it hits at like 30º, but otherwise it’s harder to prevent splashback

      I (M) saw Sinead O’Connor in the early '90s and almost the entire audience was 13-year-old girls dressed in black who screamed every time Sinead made a weird hand gesture. Still probably the best concert I’ve ever been to - Sinead was a fantastic real singer and her band was tight. RIP and fuck Joe Pesci.
