Also, try different types to see which fit best.
For example, i used to use these:
which worked ok but were kind of fiddly to insert. I found that these:
fit much better.

Wow. Blast from the bast.
Buy earplugs from the people at the bar.
Except that they tend to be horribly expensive when you buy them at the venue, at least in my experience. At the place I always go, they charge $3 for a pair. You can buy about 8 pairs for that much at any drugstore.
My usual club only charges $1. Which is still like a thousand percent markup, but I think it's a pretty reasonable price.
Yeah, most places I've bought them seem to charge $1. Although I almost never forget to bring them anymore. The constant hum in my left ear is an all too effective reminder.

i saw lightning bolt, and they were so loud i could feel the pressure in my ears, but no pain, no ringing, nothing. this makes me super hardcore. however, this also makes me about 1/4 of the way deaf at age 20. if you value your hearing, wear them! its prudent! but i will still make fun of you if i see you wearing them hehe 
That's the best! Mocking people for wearing earplugs while wearing them yourself. When they yell "You got 'em in too asshole!". Just shake your head while muttering "pussy" and turn your face back to the stage.
By the way, that lightning bolt was the mighty Zeus commanding you to dork out and have earplugs in 24/7
guess i outta clarify... what i meant was i never wear earplugs and never have, and thus about 1/4 of my hearing is gone at age 20. lightning bolt, being the loudest band ever, were just an example...
that said, now that you mention it, i actually WOULD make fun of people for wearing earplugs while wearing them myself, because hanging out with people like HER has actually turned me into enough of an asshole to where i would think that was hilarous. muhahahaha!!!
Dude, I'm back next week. We have to do this.

fortunately for me, my band failed miserably and i hate almost all new music, so i very rarely if ever go to shows and therefore don't need earplugs. 
Your Winger cover band was The Balls.
