I'm sure they can sort of like, see through the LED things on their helmets.
[QUOTE=Secone;28736920]Over the past like, 8 years of listening to Daft Punk, why has this never occured to me until now. I'm sure they can sort of like, see through the LED things on their helmets.[/QUOTE] Asked on /mu/, this was the answer I got: [quote=/mu/]They didn't. They didn't play live when Discovery came out (I think one of them was in danger of permanent hearing loss/tinnitus for awhile and had to stop DJ'ing) and when they toured in 2007 they came out with new helmets that removed the lights.[/quote] And there you go.
[Url=http://volpinprops.blogspot.com/]Volpin Props[/url] (The guy who made that swweeeeeeeeettttt Portal Gun) Is building a Daft Punk(Thomas) helmet and I think he's working on an LED thing that he can see through.
God it'd be scary if I lost my hearing because of music.
[QUOTE=Eluveitie;28740545]God it'd be scary if I lost my hearing because of music.[/QUOTE] You have to be careful, lot's of people are just like, "CRANK IT MAN WOOOH!", but every time they do that, they might be damaging their ears permanently. I always use ear plugs when playing guitar, specifically with a band/live, I don't understand how people can handle it. I played one song with my band not wearing plugs, and my ears hurt so much during it, I wanted to rip them out. Fortunately, my hearing was great when I got them checked a few months ago. Also, it bugs me when people do things like hitting the crash cymbals as hard as they possibly can 4 times in a row without warning, ever since my friend did that, I have a slight ringing every night. Tinnitus drives people to suicide if you continue bad habits.
[QUOTE=CoolCorky;28736762]Post link[/QUOTE] I will next week once I've grobbled a fair amount
[QUOTE=Eluveitie;28740545]God it'd be scary if I lost my hearing because of music.[/QUOTE] I've kinda lost it, not completely but I can't hear as well as anyone else. Mostly because of music, but firecrackers, trains, the city, cars and other things that I hear everyday (yeah, firecrackers about everyday, always some fucked up little kid in the area trying to blow some snow up) messes with my hearing. I also got [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus]tinnitus[/url] and it sucks pretty fucking much. And I got it at such a high "level", that I hear it all the time, it is always there, can always hear it. It's such a fucking... sad thing to have :smith: So do as Kab2tract says, use ear plugs or something if you're going to, lets say, a concert, or just get some large headphones that cover your entire ear, and use them while you're going to school/work/wherever, bonus if you have an mp3-player with some of your favorite music. Just [U]don't[/U] exaggerate the volume, as long as your hearing is fine, try to keep it that way.

Messes up my timing to all shit though, I need a bit of ring :smith:
I heard previews of each track on WTF?! by KMFDM. Seems pretty uninspired, hopefully it will be an album that will grow on like Attak did.
Anyone wanna tinychat? I might do private shows for some money :v:

[QUOTE=Eluveitie;28740545]God it'd be scary if I lost my hearing because of music.[/QUOTE] I keep telling people to stop listening to music so loud... They never listen. The ways of getting a thrill out of music has been "Loudness" instead of depth... :sigh: [editline]22nd March 2011[/editline] Example: *"want to give my new headphones a listen?" "ARE THEY LOUD?"
I don't care if it makes me go deaf I want to physically feel the music I'm listening to
I really don't listen to music loud, at least I don't think so.
went for a nap just before. napping is fucking awesome. I think I'll do it every afternoon.
[QUOTE=absinthe;28742999]I don't care if it makes me go deaf I want to physically feel the music I'm listening to[/QUOTE] Well, you might as well get Skullcandy Skullcrushers. Great way to listen to music. :downs:
Am I the only one who doesn't understand most music without lyrics? I can do it just fine with most French music, but in English it takes a great deal of effort unless it's rap or something.
That doesn't even make sense
[QUOTE=Tabarnaco;28743112]Am I the only one who doesn't understand most music without lyrics?[/QUOTE] What as in what the sounds are trying to say? Yes it's tough, takes some deep thought. That's why I love Jazz :v:
Post rock man If you can't understand that, wow
Listened to a lot of freaky ambient stuff this week, now that shit you can't even explain. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1MrHhucaRE[/media] :psyboom:
