Yes 10% ($150/month), very easy.

I have it. I am a musician. I've played guitar with loud stage volume, rock and blues, since about 1981 or so. It's annoying but I've learned to live with it. My hearing has suffered somewhat (not much, really) but I can still hear everything. My main problem is that I can't distinguish what one person is saying in a crowd, but I can hear them. I get by. I've been playing guitar for the better part of 45 years and on stage for almost 40. I wouldn't change a damn thing.
Exactly my situation.

I've played nearly as long, but I've managed to avoid tinnitus, though I do have some loss. I'm not certain how much is age-related and how much is due to volume.
I started wearing high dB cut ear plugs in the mid-90's. Switched to in-ear monitors in 2004 and played with a band that was completely ampless on stage. No monitors, and no stage noise except for the cymbals and drummer's monitor (he used triggers on the drums).
I would never go back to amps on stage.

Same as a surface nuke. I probably need to go get my VA card over in Biloxi. I have been out for 10 years now and always felt bad about going over there and whining to them about it but It has gotten worse.
