I know it’s way more expensive, but the last gig I went to, I used my AirPods Pro in transparency mode, and it reduced the sound down from an insane ~110db to peaks of 90! Definitely worth protecting your ears.
Yeah, I can’t stand losing the high frequencies and overall feel of the music with “musician’s” earplugs. How anyone other than a drummer plays with them and is satisfied is beyond me. I have some Etymotics just sitting here.

Airpods (and noise cancelling in general) are not substitutes for hearing protection!
Yes, good point! Whilst it’s probably better than nothing, it won’t be a proper substitute for proper hearing protection like the earplugs mentioned

It gives a live read-out of the data in the ‘noise’ app on the Apple Watch. Not sure if that functionality exists without the watch, though!
Edit: not the most scientific measurement, so apologies if my original comment was misleading
