I can recommend these. I'm perennially amazed that so many of my more (ahem) vintage friends go to gigs without earplugs. You might not use them every time, but you really want the option.
On a friendly note, it's difficult times, workwise. If you were ever thinking about getting some really nice earplugs for that gig you've got tickets for, I'd love you to consider mine. They're very good, I just quite suck at *checks* spending money on advertising.
