Dear Lisa,
You are so right!!!
It would pay off to organise a group that tries to imply new rules through the municipality and government.
My daughter went to camp outnear kinereth and was first treated to a karaoke that was dictated to the whole camping ground and then a bachelorette went on next to the tent till 03.00 in the night. In europe you are not allowed to have a radio/tv on the campground, because it is ment to be quiet in nature.
People who have a party should do it with the windows shut and stop at midnight unless nobody hears them.
The scouts hold their meetings in the middel of TA with big synthesizers on the roof. I thought scouts were meant to have sing alongs and learn to take the rest of the world in to account.
The positive side: there is ample room for improvement.
kind regards
rosa from amsterdam ( and partly from TA)
Only of late noise starts to be recognised as the biggest pollutor of the public space.

[...] loud party to celebrate Independence Day, keeping up the entire neighbourhood and driving me into a 5 a.m. temper tantrum. I’ve sort of grudgingly forgiven Idan since then, but I’d still like an opportunity to [...]

There are 365 days in a year,
not all the people are the same as you,
For one day in a year, you can live with noise.

Nice of you not asking them also to cook dinner and give foot massage to the entire neighborhood…
Why can’t you just let people enjoy for one day in the year….?

Hello Michael from Green Road Tech in Or Yehuda. Thanks for stopping by. Were you one of the drunk and noisy jerks breaking beer bottles outside Idan and Sam’s building at 4 a.m? I have a feeling you were. Why should your “fun” come at my expense? Why should it come at the expense of the mother with the screaming baby? Your idea of “fun” is rather strange for a grown man (which I assume you are). But let’s agree to disagree on the definition of a good time – as long as you have your good time in a place far away from me. Lisa

Chiming in a bit late, just wanted to say – next time just call the police. Where I live, Pardes Hana, they are pretty good about shutting down parties that last after midnight and disturb the peace.

Actually, come to think about it, we’ve done it in Tel Aviv too back when we used to live in the big city and it always did the trick.

Lisa!
I like that kind of music! Come on wtf!!!
Anyway – its always good to have a few eggs around the house…you can slip on to your roof, lob a few eggs and slip back inside without anyone knowing it was you…it may not stop the music but at least you will feel a little vindication.
Or even better you could have just popped a pill and joined the party…

If it happens again, why not try a little strategically aimed music say at around 7 am the next day? You could post a note about a small morning after party.
