i have no idea. my whole life basically revolves around music...whether it be listening and enjoying or more importantly, writing and playing guitar.

i'd probably go into deep depression...

This is such a depressing thought... but after I stop feeling depressed about myself, I'd start lip-reading and sign-languages classes, sell my audio gear, then wait until science can restore... nay, IMPROVE my hearing in the future.

I agree with you man. Even though I love music and the sense of hearing, I would probably give it up over sight and touch. I would probably give up the sense of smell over hearing though.

Tough querstion, I'll take a pass and just hope it doesn't happen. Besides, my plan is to live forever with near perfect hearing. It's working so far!

I don't think I'd change that much. I'd pick up some other hobbies for sure...
Micro-Brewing
Photography
Baking
Flashlight collecting/modding
Shooting, imagine going to a gun range and not needing hearing protection.
Sports memorabilia
Star wars collectibles

First I would save a lot of money!

Then I would make a lot of money by selling all the crap I have purchased!

Then I would spend time with the family which I can not HEAR!

wow - good question, after going through a huge bout of depression, hopefully coming out of it and focusing on my new enhanced visual world;

"Now look...
...with your vampire eyes.
What did you see?" -Lestat (interview...)

kind of deal....hehe, sry love that film far too much.

yeah i guess all things visual would come knocking, i personally think i would watch more music videos than i do now. and focus on photography and graphic design - and film with subtitle would be my new best friend!
