Anyone in the music business with a serious interest in looking after their future hearing should take a look at the Elacin range of ear defenders and in-ear monitors.
Here's a quote from Zane Lowe, the Radio 1 DJ, "A few years back I became very aware of how much I was exposing myself to loud music. However, as a DJ I was concerned about using earplugs and losing some of the feel of the room. I have used these plugs now for 3 years and swear by them. Its only when I take them out mid set that I realise how dangerous monitor levels can get. I do not DJ without them."
Coldplay and The Script are also avid users of in-ear monitors.
The Elacin ER-20 is the most popular of in-ear monitors. For more information, take a look at the Elacin site:
