Ear plugs, ear muffs strongly recommended at Buddha Live.

Buddha Live clearly is seen as one of the best nightclubs in Southwest Florida. They have live music all 7 days a week.

However, it gets ENORMOUSLY loud in there when the music is active! They often have what are known as heavy metal bands, capable of producing noise levels equivilant to the noise levels experienced on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier. It's far louder than the music at Dixie Roadhouse and at The Ranch Concert Hall & Saloon.

Due to the extreme noise levels, it is therefore very strongly recommended that all patrons that go to Buddha Live after 7 pm on any day bring ear plugs with them. I recommend those soft foam ear plugs, such as those made by Leight Sleepers (Howard Leight by Honeywell). They are the best kind for high noise environments such as airport tarmacs, aircraft carrier decks, and clubs with extremely loud music such as Buddha Live. Rubber, multi tier ear plugs, such as what are worn at swimming pools, are not recommended as they don't block much if any noise.

Rubber edged ear muffs, like the ones you might see being worn by crew members on the flight decks of aircraft carriers, or that you might see being worn by airport baggage handlers, airport fuel truck operators, the guys in charge of pushing the plane away from the gate for it's departure, and airport mechanics, will work as well and are also recommended. They can be purchased easily enough on Ebay.

Patrons, DO NOT order drinks or food or request to pay your bill while the live music is actively playing. And don't even try to have any kind of a conversation whatsoever with your bartender friend that's working there, because with that live music there roaring as loud as a Harrier Jump Jet lifting off 20 feet away, the bartenders will never hear a thing you're saying. Wait for the band to take a break before even ordering food or drinks or requesting to cash out. It is also strongly recommended that any/all bartenders that choose to work at Buddha Live wear ear plugs or ear muffs like the kind you see worn by airport employees on the tarmac.
