Hello Everyone! I have started a new channel called "Roar!" where I try out challenges and push myself out of my comfort zone.

IN SHORT: So they can HEAR THEMSELVES SINGING, Protects their ears from loud noise since their close to those speakers.

I'm not a singer or musician, I just clicked to inform myself. Thanks for the video.

Professional monitor engineer here, great video! If anyone's got further questions about in-ears or monitors in general feel free to ask!

I've watched video of Freddie Mercury at Live Aid 85 and I cannot believe how he managed to sing well in that stadium environment without ear monitors.

I actually experienced this. I was playing in a band many years ago, and our music was so loud that I couldn't hear what I was playing. It was like playing 'blind'...just placing fingers on the fret board not really hearing what I was producing. It's an amazing phenomena.

Huh I always thought that they played the original song so that the singers would remember the lyrics

For much of my career, I was an audio engineer. Great presentation! You covered it all in 12 minutes. Fantastic job!

I used to sing in choirs and I always used to wonder how rock singers actually could stay in tune when there was a screaming crowd. Its hard to sing in tune if you can't hear yourself

The first time my bass player used in-ears, he said it was like playing along to a CD. I had been using in-ears for a few years but we as a band decided to buy a system for the whole band for many of the reasons you mentioned. Individual mixes, no onstage monitors reducing feedback, etc. Sound guys loved us for it because they didn't have to mix our monitor mixes....we did it ourselves! Great vid!

Haa Haa. When I was a kid.. I thought that’s for security purposes. Like someone in the crowd has a bomb.. then the staff/bouncers can easily notify the singer to run ahahahaha.

At age 70+ and lover of all things music since 1957, I am unboxing my stored original 300+ vinyl that I have lugged all around the world. A clean stereo system for my den is a must speakers, etc.). I have hearing loss and tinnitus from aircraft engines and gunfire (long story). Now I wear Resound hearing aids that give me welcome assistance with conversations and the phone app helps somewhat at live concerts. Your video cleared up many questions I've wondered about. Thank you. Miss Beth, you are a great teacher.

We need to hear what they are hearing for us to really understand. .

I think I remember Paul McCartney saying they kept looking at each other to see where they were in the song. Can you imagine noticing you were half a beat off and having to catch up while playing and singing.

I'm 27 years old, but have been playing gigs in loud settings since I was about 15 years old. I've been noticing a decline in my hearing health for some time now, and I will definitely convince my band to switch to in-ears!
