Maybe if it's polka :p but if you think your neighbors are loud now just wait. I hear it's really loud in jail. :rolleyes: ;)
Are they singing along to it but don't know the words and can't carry a tune? Maybe your neighbor and my neighbor should get together and party somewhere.:D
Maybe when they do go out, quickly squirt some Super Glue in the keyhole to front and back doors then they can't get in. :eek:
OK it won't stop them permanently but it will be fun watching and meanwhile it will be quiet.
I feel for you, our last apartment the guy was the mid shift manager at McDonald's so he slept most of the day. He would come home middle of the night and blare music. No amount of complaining to the horrible management did anything. Finally one night I could tell they had underage drinking and called the local cops to report that and the noise. They didn't do it the rest of the 4-5 months we lived there. Justice in my book and I didn't get a ticket or jail!
Years ago we were in a duplex with neighbors who were noisy...they had little lowered cars that they liked to rev (seriously, revving a 4-banger on a Tracker and a Cavalier is just sad, people). They also liked to play their thumping bass music in the wee hours. We were suspicious that they'd be trouble when our landlord was showing them the unit and they arrived with their vehicles with big stickers that said "Baby Boom" across the top of the windshield.
What made matters worse is that this couple had a little boy...couldn't have been more than 2.5. They would drive around with him STANDING on the front passenger floor. We should have called CPS.
Fortunately they only lived there for a few months. Apparently they stopped payment on their 2nd or 3rd month's rent, so they were evicted. Phew!
I found bag pipe music at 6:00 AM a great recourse. Nothing like the pipes to get one stirring in the morning. I was awake and thought I'd share the joy.
Owlice - have you tried calling the cops? Is there an noise ordance where you live? If it continues after 10 or 12 the cops might be able to do something.
I have the cops on speed dial... they rarely do anything unless it's after 11 PM. Yes, we have a noise ordinance (though noise ordance sounds like a better idea to me!!), but it is rarely enforced during daylight hours, even if the music is coming from the next block (which has/does happen).
I don't do it after dark, but I have been known to put speakers in my window and crank up some of the modern classical music I have (which many people don't even classify as music). Four minutes of that has always done the trick. I hate to resort to that, but have when I just couldn't take it any more!
(You'd think these people would get a clue, wouldn't you, that the entire neighborhood can hear their music and it isn't appreciated? But noooooooo! They need to be reminded over and over and over and over again!)
Trek, polka would be an improvement, believe me!!
Maybe they're a tad deaf. Sat too close to concert speakers a few times too many.
