Surprisingly no. I thought all of the sound systems were impressive other than the Which Stage which was extremely weak. I only saw 15 minutes of Mule before I left. I heard no distortion, which is what hurts your ears. I once went to see 311 and the sound was so awful that my friend and I could barely communicate after due to the distortion. My ears were still ringing the next day. They definitely have professionals working at Roo.

Yeah I noticed when I was in the quiet bathroom I could still hear some ringing. That being said its only been 7 hours since phish and I was way up in the front. So worth it!
The speakers NIN brought tore apart my ear drums... still ringing.
During NIN, I was watching some unknown band play the Troo Music Lounge. They were getting way overpowered by the sound blasting out of Which, unless you were right in front of the stage, and then it was no problem. This band and another unknown at Troo were my favorite new discoveries of the weekend, musically anyway. Gotta research them when I get up the strength to go back out to my truck for my Guide.

I think my flight home killed my ears. First I just couldn't hear anything, then my ears started hurting like CRAZY. I think this was seriously the worst pain I've ever experienced in my life, it was all I could do to keep from crying. Then on the second leg of the flight I got so dizzy I was sure I was going to pass out, no idea how I managed to not. And then of course my ears started hurting again and that time they didn't stop even after I was off the plane until I took some ibuprofen. They don't really hurt now but I still can't hear much out of my left ear - sounds like I've got wind whistling by it nonstop or something.
So, uh, yeah, my ears are sort of ringing, but not from the shows! Although I was actually afraid for my hearing when I was too close to the speakers at the end of Of Montreal.

Animal Collective at Which was the loudest show I've been to in my entire life. I didn't like it at first, but then I started digging the ability to literally FEEL every beat. Kind of a high.
