Re: OT: You can go to jail for this?

I lived in the Norwegian countryside many years ago. My next door neighbour had this thing for Swedish dance bands (Vikingarna, Sven Ingvars etc for the locals - and for everyone else: This is as low as a musician can sink...). Every night the newly wed couple had a few drinks, asked some friends over and started playing that really shitty music extremely loud. For a while I tried to be polite and tolerant - and sometimes I put on my own Stones-albums at an even higher volume. Then one Sunday morning - their party had been going on untill 5 am, and I was going to work at 9 am - I lost my patience. Went over to their house - brought a copy of "Stripped" - with the following message: OK - if you're going to keep playing this loudly, can't you at least play some REAL music???
They took the hint and kept the album... And even played it on several occations.
