Stompin Tom is bad. Soulja Boy is a travesty against sound.

Yeah, playing music right back at 'em is my favorite revenge, I can usually sleep through there music anyways, but I still find it disrespectful. SO, I would go out and buy an Aqua or Ming CD and leave it on while at work.

I have the worst luck with neighbours being noisy during sex. One used to scream her head off starting with foreplay, it seemed, and when it was finally over she would start bawling her head off.
Luckily for my roomie they don't last very long...seriously like 30 seconds. I was in her room watching TV and I was like "Are they having sex...?" and then literally 30 seconds later it was over...apparently it's always that fast..
One thrust, two if you're lucky I suppose.

One of my current roomies likes Celine Dion... He also likes Nickelback...he told me during the All-Star game they should get a good band their like Nickelback. I express my disgust with Nickelback and he responds with "OK then...Bryan Adams"
Some people.

You should slip a note under his door that says, "Hey, hey, you, you, I don't like your stupid music".

Banging on the door was stupid. You have to approach these things with restraint initially, starting things out confrontational will not work, even if you are in the right.

Banging on the door was stupid? It was the only way anyone would have heard any knocking on the door as their front door is at the bottom of a flight of stairs and Avril Lavigne was serenading the entire parking lot with amazing clarity. Besides, how else was I supposed to end the noise? Think happy thoughts about flowers and puppies?

In my younger days I would have waited for the door to open and then dragged the guy outside on the freezing concrete in his bare feet and beat the living piss out of him. That would have been stupid.

Thanks for the drive-by though. You've been of no help at all.

You should've just called the police... tell them your neighbors are having a party and have their music too loud, even if they're not partying cops at the door usually does the trick.

I concur, as I had the cops called on me once...they show up, cite you for disturbing the peace (3 digit fine), don't tell you who called and than leave. I never did that again.

Did you guys get Bleu Nuit on TQS? Kids today don't know how easy they have it, I remember when the odd boob was a big deal on Wild On, or Fashion Television, then you'd get soft core on Saturdays in French on TQS.

Now, 2 Girls 1 Cup . . . kids today!

Bleu Nuit

Followed by that 18th centuryish show. La Vie en Rose I wanna say.

We live in a house and get to hear our neighbors music late at night or morning at excessive volumes. If I am lying in bed at 0200 and can clearly hear the entire Grease soundtrack, I think it's too loud.

Wow, maybe you guys should build a time machine and move out of the 80's to a better neighborhood. Grease? what.

One of you is probably going to complain about hearing the easy listening sounds of Gomer Pyle until 8 at night when the grandparents go to bed.

God I hate Frankie Avalon.

This is why I miss iceland, all the condo's apartments are built with cement walls. And houses are at least 1 Calgary house width apart.

Also no one complains about the slightest noise, although the OP here is and has every right to be mad. Sounds like a jack ass neighbour. Call the cops next time it happens if he's a prick, but before that happens talk to him daytime nicely when he's not drunk and you might get a better relationship with your neighbour.

Find out who his landlord is and raise the issue with him/her...failing that go straight to the board, any condo board worth their salt would give the punks their eviction notice after 2 strikes. If your board's one of those who don't do anything, get yourself elected on it in the next AGM & start being the bylaw-nazi. Read your bylaws, 99% of the apartment condos out there will have that noise clause printed somewhere prominent within the first 10 pages.

Update: Yesterday evening I spoke with the Alpha male roommate (you can just tell who the dominant personality is in a shared accomodation arrangement as Twerpy Lavigne wasn't home and very nicely mentioned how it wasn't the first time we'd been woken up. I also told him that our bedroom wall is the one that their subwoofer is firing off of when they play their stereo loud. He seemed genuinely apologetic and said that it won't be happening again. Things were quiet last night so everything seems to be taken care of.
