OMG. The apartment above me had band practice until practically 1am. If you can call it a band. I swear there was a woman making tribal screams. Wait. why should I insult the sounds that a tribe might make. No. She made noise. A cat dying would be more accurate. Holy crap. Okay. So I may go to bed earlier than most. I try to turn off the lights by 11:30. But come on. Is there anything I do that affects the livelihood of others? Are they going to pay for my extra large coffee this morning? Pay for- karma-wise, the anger and frustration they caused me? Even after they finally stopped, I had dreams and tossed and turned, waiting for the music to come back on. Last year, I went up and asked him to stop. He had the nerve to explain to me that this was his job and he had to. ON A MONDAY NIGHT???? COME ON. If he were any good, he'd be able to afford a practice space.
What would my readers suggest? Putting an anonymous note on the front of our building (inside) that says, "To the "band" on the 4th Floor- Nobody appreciates your music after 11:30 on a Monday night."
Or should I slip a detailed letter, anonymously, under his door detailing how his music is effecting me- lack of sleep, anger, frustration, etc.
I know going the anonymous root is passive aggressive, but at this point, politely asking him to stop doesn't seem to be working, and I have some stuff to get off my chest.
