Neighbours music arrgghhh

[spuddy56]

Why do some people think the whole street should be subjected to their music/radio taste and why can't they just put headphones on!!
That is all.

Because they are thoughtless arseholes who think their right to do as they please trumps anything else.

Just had the very same issue. Loud drum and bass. Can be heard all down the street. I sent a polite text message. I'm all for people listening to music but not when it means that others can't sit in their gardens because of it.

It's infuriating. There's something about nice weather that seems to make some people behave in annoying ways. Gorgeous weather here today. By 10am somebody already had a bonfire going. Just why??

When the sun comes out, the scum come out.

Loud, revolting people- one of the main reasons I dislike summer weather.

My husband is guilty of this, he sees it as musically educating the neighbours

There will be posters saying that if you want silence than you shouldn’t live around people, like we all have the choice to go and live in a field.

I personally think that of you live within ear shot of others then you should be considerate.
One person listening to music pisses off countless neighbours.

There's what a 15 year old here walking around with a dog shaped boom box that's playing every inappropriate imaginable stupidly loud with a group of 5 to 11 year olds trailing behind him 🤣

Every inappropriate song imaginable, that sentence should say

I do this when next door are outside to cover the noise of the shrieking. Don't wear headphones as I still want to talk to my husband.

When next door are quiet we can turn the music off, otherwise it's an unpleasant experience.

Waiting for a plane the other day. One person sitting watching a loud film on his phone, no earphones. Asshole.

Who wants to wear headphones when in the garden on a gloriously sunny day with friends over?!

I'm in my garden with the speaker on (by myself at the moment). Before you all start yelling at me and calling me selfish etc, a) I don't give a shit and b) it's not loud: you can't hear it at the top of the garden.

I'm with you OP. Been enjoying some sun and peace in the garden before my dreaded neighbours got home. Now listening to Heart FM at full blast, including the presenters and everything.

I would have to hire a hitman. He deserves to be shot.

I don't need musically educating thanks. I don't want wankers blasting their music out. It's the kind of shitty, inconsiderate behaviour you should outgrow once you're out your teens.

So anti social. I literally hate people for this. On planes/trains/cafes too. But I’m gardens it’s the worst. Luckily my neighbours are lovely here and wouldn’t dream of it.

I had to ask parents 5 rows in front in a flight to turn their kids videos down. Seriously blasting. No headphones. Selfish as.

Use headphones. Simple.

I do it to drown out the dickhead neighbours and their awful child. They have had multiple complaints from people around them about their behaviour (including 3 fines during lockdowns for hosting parties, Which they were shocked about because rules apparently don't apply to them).

So yes, when their brat starts drumming or tamborining at 7am on a Sunday morning I pop a little death metal on to make him go back inside.

And the neighbours will see it as the annoying selfish wanker neighbour.

Kind of makes it hard to complain about their noise though? @Glenthebattleostrich

I think that you should return the favour and share your music too. About 6am would be a good time to start.
On the playlist you should have

1812 overture
Vivaldi's Four Seasons
Bagpipe music
Military music
Crazy Frog

I'd take, to a degree, any of the options put forward so far.

My annoying neighbours think that the entire neighbourhood wants to join in a karaoke session of diddle-e-ay Irish rebel choons. We don't!!!!!!!!!

So, I play showtunes or classical music instead. Equally loud.

Sorry neighbours.

The question is not “what’s wrong with you?” but “what happened to you?”.

If I could have a super power it would be like El from Stranger Things so I could disrupt their stereos etc.

@gardenhelpneeded Having tolerated their arsehollery for 14 years I've stopped being polite about it. The highlights being the arsehole shouting at my daughter and calling her a little bitch for playing with her hula hoop in the garden, spraying a friend with their hose because we were having a bbq (the day after they had thw police there because another neighbour called them, not us), reporting us to the council for putting our bin out on our property but thats where they liked to park, trying to shut down my (very unobtrusive) business because their friend started the same thing so I was competition (I actually helped their friend set up as there's plenty of work for everyone), throwing paint and rubbish onto our garden because we refused to tarmac it for them to park on (we have 1 car and a drive) and they were shocked when we suggested they use their garage, the parking spaces across the road or indeed park over their own drive!

These people are entitled arseholes and have been for a very long time before I lost patience.
