Herb, you had an awesome run!
I never mentioned it to anyone, except Joe Rogers, but when I retired from the Byrd gig I had some hearing issues. I think mine were caused by my lack of knowledge in utilizing my IEM’s and not being vigilant about pursuing an effective remedy while touring.( I was too easily frustrated and just kept performing with the equipment I had….bad mistake.. It’s all my fault.
Currently, I play out only occasionally and according to my last 2 annual hearing tests I haven’t suffered any further losses. The ringing is only occasional , but I HATE how I’m forced to ask my wife and others to repeat themselves.
Good luck to you and I hope you find fullfiment in other endeavors.
