Did you know that wearing a brimmed hat puts a notch in your hearing around 2 kHz? Flicking through Bob Katz's book in the store I just ran into that interesting little factoid. Lol!

Except, I would probably be wearing mine backwards anyway, catchers style.   
 
Maybe that would put a notch in the bass. Lol!

I wonder, if you're completely bald, does that reduce comb filtering?

It would certainly reduce bugs..

I knew wearing a hat on stage could increase the likelihood of feedback from the stage monitors.....

I recorded an album in a barbershop once. It turned out alright apart from some audible clipping. The barber did offer to trim my levels but I didn't trust him to get it right. I might have ended up with a flat top.

It hurts a little getting the hat over the headphones but yeah, I can hear it!

I think my Stetson would take more than a notch out of it.
