I go by the rule if it's not loud enough to make me uncomfortable it's all 😊 . I'm sure the baby boomers enjoyed plenty of rock and roll concerts in there Day and most are still hearing just fine.
Google "Lars Ulrich hearing loss" and you'll realize what a poor example you chose to prove your medical theory. Its only been in the news for about 8 years now.
Like I said, much louder and for longer periods at a time on a regular basis yet neither him or James Hetfield are far from deaf despite this. I for one don't have any hearing loss and I don't listen anywhere near max volume. It's not even quarter volume. I've been a fan of music that's typically played loud in bars and clubs for over 20+ years and I'm totally fine. I know my limits and I'm not looking to kill myself lol.
