most annoying neighbor?

Just wondering if this topic has ever sprung up on the Gon. I have next door to me, most likley the most annoying neighbor I have ever been accustomed to. Almost all day at low volumes "Thank God" he plays some kind of tom tom music almost ritual in nature even at 5:30am. At the moment as I am typing I can hear, it very faint but it is there like dripping water from a faucet. I have yet to hear anything else from him in terms of identifiable music such as we know just the same over and over and over. I was wondering any fellow Goners ever have the displeasure LOL?

Make copies of your favorite CD's and stick-em in his mailbox, he might change his "style"

Schipo,
Could you go over there and POLITELY ask who the artist is, is it original, etc? Just be friendly and curious and make it clear that you can hear it ALL THE Time. They just might find you pleasant enough to realize that maybe it is too loud and that it might really bother you.
Worth a try.
Good luck.

Oh Yeahhhhhh...I've got a couple that lives across the street that feel they need to serenade the neighborhood with rap music every time they fire up their SUV. The entire back of his Explorer is occupied with a gigantic subwoofer cabinet, so when that suckers rockin', so is everyone within a hundred yards. Nothing I love so much as listening to classical music while the rhythmic thud of their music shakes the foundation.

I shared a townhouse in DC with a guy who was a "writer" who "worked" from 2am (after the bars closed) until 5:30 (just before I had to get up for work). We lived directly above him and while he was "working" he played what sounded like a continuous loop of some kind of "techo" music--a simple, repetitive, droning beat. Visits to his door in my PJ's elicited no appreciation for our situation. He simply repeated "I'm a writer and I'm working". Never did see his name in print....

Thank you for the suggestion. But the truth is I really don't hear that much it's very very faint. I am afraid to tell him that I hear or that I like the artist he might turn it up thinking I like it. I am going to let it ride for now because the volume is so low, but I just find it so unusual that a person can listen to this over and over and over.
