How to quiet down your neighbors.

Neighbors were blasting music at 1AM. I put my amp in the closet facing their wall. I turned the volume and gain up. Turned it on. Turned on my fuzz pedals. (Gated fuzz mind you, gotta be stealthy.) Turned volume up on guitar. Played E chord until it feedbacked. Banged on the wall a few times. Turned Amp Off. They banged back. I yelled "Fuck off". They turned down the music.
Rock and roll wins.

Reminds me of the BBQ I had at mine... basically, my parents hate my neighbours, I started to learn drums, the noisey fuck neighbour at the top of the garden complained (he's some australlian guy, shouts every sentence, parents hate him as he disturbs the peace *and I was learning drums! he was noisier than that!)
Next door neighbours, I was having a BBQ with some friends at 4PM on a wedensday afternoon with a police officer in presence and my other neighbours complained! (the police officer being a mate basically told the guy he had no rights and to go away... especially as he was drunk

)
But basically... people are twats... and I feel for you man, I love drumming but I had to drop them... true when sold I made triple what I paid for them but damn were they nice and I enjoyed them and I hate crappy neighbours... even though the noise was vice versa, I feel where you're coming from as I'm considerate, these people are not.

yeah its always nice to know that a good amp (not to mention some nasty pedals) can most likely destroy whatever shitty little sound system your neighbors might have.

Fuzz is a weapon in the war against noise. How strange is that as a statement of fact????????

My buddy's neighbors used to always flick there cigarette butts into his yard, even after he told them to stop. He's a mellow dude mind you. So one day he just picked up all the butts from his yard (which was a lot) and stuff them in his neighbors' mailbox. The next night, the neighbors lit his mailbox on fire.
Irrelevant story is irrelevant.
