Yes, it was definitely in Dome Tour 2001. She only started talking about it in 2004. Prior to that, fans had no knowledge of it.
It actually started in her second tour in 2000 when the live band was added to her show. (bands are always more loud than recorded music, which is what she was using before.) It was durring the Dome Tour in 2001 though that it started to become unbarable. She was almost completely deaf in her left ear. I'm sure she still has problems with it today, because usually once hearing damage is done, it is permanent. The only thing she has said about the extent of the damage is that she can't talk on the phone using her left ear.
