The only answer to this problem I can think of, is discreet "in-ear" monitors,
& even then, if, for instance the guitar is stupidly loud, forget it!!!

Hi:
Wow! If t he stage volume is that loud that you can’t hear what you’re
playing, it’s time to get off. That can’t be doing your ears any good.
Believe me, I’ve done my share of loud playing but I never got into a situation
like what you are describing. I’ve really stayed away from heavy metal rock
anyway. We need our ears, and any hearing loss will be with you for the rest
of your life, so be careful.

Hi all,
At the end of last night Show, I was asked to join the band (who was topping
the bill) The house mix was controlled by a sound engineer, however, the Band's
stage mix was simply their independent Guitar and bass amp levels.
My two questions are,
1: has anyone else been on a loud stage environment where it sounds like the
keyboard is in a different key to the other instruments until the levels drop
during the music, at that point you then hear the key for what it is?
2: When the stage level is so loud you can't hear the keyboards, is there any
technique that totally visually impaired musicians use to A: know your hitting
the right notes and B: keep metronomic?
I struggled last night with these particular issues, I always have a slight
Doppler effect when music is loud, I especially don't always hear the bass
notes as clear defined pitcht notes.
