Keith D looks very anxious waiting for his curry, doesn't he? :lol:
Well, I had been waiting 3 years for this curry 
It was worth the wait though :lol:
Good job you ordered the curry in advance, Keith; you couldn't possibly have heard the waiter asking for your order on the night after spending the whole gig right in front of the left-hand speaker stack. That was you, wasn't it? :shock:
Yep, that was me. The ears took a bashing, but it was worth it 
Mad, completely mad: my left ear didn't stop buzzing until Sunday morning, and I was three metres away from the speakers.
For anyone needing good custom ear plugs, I can thoroughly recommend these folks:

I actually don't have the ear plug variety, but have Elacin moulds for my Etymotic ER-4P earphones and it's on that basis that I can recommend Elacin's moulds in general. Indeed, while Elacin makes the moulds, Etymotic makes the attenuation filters in those earplugs, and Elacin also resell standard earplugs from Etymotic that are very likely to be good, as well as a damn sight cheaper:
