It's not the actual sound frequencies that kill you, it's the intensity. If you wear cheap foam earplugs that are meant for noisy work environments, yes, it will muffle the sound a little bit but it will in no way ruin the experience. In fact, it'll enhance your listening experience because your ears won't be ringing for the next few days and you'll keep your hearing for a few more years.
I know that many musicians and stage workers do wear earplugs during their shows; they're custom, more expensive earplugs that do a better job in not muffling the sound but blocking out the intensity.
