iBose! Dear rasika, don't leave home without it!

Post by Rsachi »

Introducing a revolutionary noise-canceling in-the-ear technology for perpetual music enjoyment:
IBose

I attended yesterday an extremely tastefully got-up wedding reception in Bangalore Palace Eden Garden, where a large fusion band played. There were several percussionists vying with each other in creative output volume and the hifi speaker chap had won a medal from Osibisa of 200kW fame.

I was lucky to sit in the front and enjoy the music. What came to my aid was my iBose, carefully saved in my wallet's innards on sound advice from a dear maharasika friend who never leaves home without it.

IBose is a unique pair of high quality cotton wads 2g each for each ear to be shaped and inserted personally the moment you encounter trouble. Before I apply for the international patent, let me at least explain the name:
i = Intolerable B=blast o=of s=sound e=eliminator.
Available in all expensive audio tech stores and medical shops.

Rsachi,
One of my senior school friend is a jet airways pilot I met him 2 years back after about a decade and half ,then i met him at my home. He gave me a pair of what he uses when he is in job-it is something where you can plug fairly deep into your ears . He told me that with a name (forgot the name), i started using it for one concert for a dear mrudangist, but the inconveniance of that in my ear bothered me . Yours is the best solution. Congrats on your iBose we all can iPose with that in the next rasikas meet photograph.

Yes Rajesh!! I know those fancy sterile foam inserts. They are sold at most airports too. They make you look a bit weirdly bovine as you nod at Gopucchayati swaras.

By the way, there is an iBose accessory you can morrow (=borrow permanently) from a Chinese restaurant. A pair of good quality tooth-picks (Chungwa brand oak wood).

They help in safe retrieval of iBose if you have inserted them too deeply (needed when raw sound level exceeds 95dBA)
