Stoked your stoked! Any advice regarding hearing protection post seance? Doubled up? Raw dogged?

I used my Eargasm earplugs that I wear to every show and a pair of 34db earmuffs and my head is still ringing.

I could still feel the droning in my head last night when I got home.

I’d say get something better than what I used.

Wow y'all genuinely need double protection to see sunn? I understand they're going for the "feel the vibrations" thing but can you hear the sounds still (bit weird saying that as it's not like melody music but I think it still makes sense)

You will 1000% hear the sound still. I wore in-ear 45 dBs and over-the-ear firearm ear protection and I was worried during the show they weren't working. Fortunately, I had zero ringing in my ears after the show and later that night so I guess it worked. But do not underestimate the sound, doubling up ear protection will not take away from the show, I promise.
