The neighbours behind us and 2 doors over are the most inconsiderate people alive.

Last year, they and 6 houses around them banded together and all summer played blaring music from dusk until dawn, every weekday, every weekend, all summer. I don't mind parties, don't get me wrong, but when I mean blaring, I mean: doors & windows shut, A/C on, TV on and you can't hear your own tv, hear yourself think or have a conversation. We put in a complaint with our town and the by-law officer spoke to them, and told us following that to keep a log of issues. There is no by-law in place saying we can/should call the cops for noise.

Fast forward to this year: So far, it's been great. Then this weekend, they've decided to start up again, but crank up the music 100 fold, AND give their kids (It looks like there are at least 20 kids in the backyard) a mic and amp to scream their heads off.

What the hell can I do? They won't listen to neighbours, they obviously don't care about what the town says. As I said, I don't mind parties, but this is insane.

This is one of the parents using the amp to talk to everyone there:

In my house. Windows/doors closed. TV on. I can't get a recording of the music because they're just letting all the kids yell into the mic for now.

I'm worried my husband is going to go over there with an axe. I can't imagine the other people in the neighbourhood trying to put their young kids down for bed with the bass shaking the houses.
