Yeah, I got the neckstrap, too. I can't imagine using it, though. Won't that be really weird, to have a string coming out of your ears? I don't know. As soon as I'm done with mine, I'll pop 'em back in their carrying case.
 
Never had a ringing that went on for days after a concert but after an Amon Amarth concert my ears became strange for 3-4 hours then it came back to normal.

I listen to headphones like crazy although I try to lower the volume so that the drum hits are not that loud. If they arent loud, then music is okay I guess because drums must be the loudest instrument.

I think something like that would be more handy for rehearsals, where you're more likely to be putting them in and taking them out every now and then.
