So basically, the situation is that I am scheduled to perform 2 songs in a Loud jazz band. I'm talking real big, real loud. Before, I would just sing my songs without earplugs and then put the plugs in after my songs were over, assuming 10 minutes of exposure wouldn't be too bad. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way that that's not what I should do.
I know that Ideally, I would get some musician's earplugs, but I can't in time for the gig for 2 reasons:
1) I'd have to get them custom molded, and I can't get that all done in a week's time.
2) I'm broke as hell and the earplugs would be expensive.
Are there any cheaper musician's earplugs I could wear/get in a shorter period of time? The foam ones stop me from hearing my voice well.
