Gifts for the Person Who Goes to Every Show
They know the set list before the encore. They're front row or they're leaving early. These gifts belong in their concert bag.
Eargasm High Fidelity Earplugs — Concert and Festival
High-fidelity earplugs that reduce volume evenly across frequencies instead of muffling highs and letting bass through — the hearing protection that lets a concert-goer stand in front of speakers and still hear the mix the way the sound engineer intended. Eargasm is the earplug brand that music communities recommend for concert use; the high-fidelity filter is what separates these from foam plugs that make music sound like it's coming from another room.
“The one reliable rule of gift-giving: anything that makes them look more serious at what they love will be received with disproportionate gratitude.”
Anker PowerCore 26800 Portable Charger — USB-C, 3 Ports
A 26,800mAh battery bank with three ports and enough capacity to charge a phone six times — the festival and multi-day concert essentials item that determines whether someone makes it through a weekend without a dead phone. Anker PowerCore is the portable charger brand that r/festivals and r/concerts communities recommend; the 26800 size is the maximum capacity allowed through most venue and festival security.
Peak Design Capture Clip — Camera Holster for Belt or Bag Strap
A camera holster clip that attaches to a belt or bag strap and holds a camera body securely while freeing both hands — the concert photography accessory for someone who brings a DSLR or mirrorless camera and wants it accessible without wearing it around their neck for three hours. Peak Design Capture is the clip that concert and event photographers use; the one-hand release gets the camera out and back in a second.
Cotopaxi Batac 16L Backpack — Hip Belt Pockets
A 16-liter daypack with hip belt pockets for phones and a main compartment that fits a 32oz water bottle — the concert and festival bag that holds everything without being too large to wear in a crowd. Cotopaxi's Batac is the size that venues allow without bag checks, with the organization that a full day at a festival or a full night at a club requires.
Moment Photo iPhone Case — Lens-Compatible, Drop-Proof
A drop-tested iPhone case with a lens mount thread for attaching Moment's wide angle and anamorphic lenses — the mobile photography upgrade for a concert-goer who documents every show with their phone and wants more creative control. Moment lenses are what mobile photographers use to go beyond the phone's built-in focal lengths; a 77mm wide angle on the Moment lens changes what's possible in a dark, crowded venue.
