    bomb threat?
    report them for underage drinking?

    I stand to be corrected on this but AFAIK it depends on the volume level and what's deemed to be a nuisance. There was a situation in Kilkelly, Co.Mayo maybe 10 or 15 years ago where a resident prosecuted a pub next door in relation to loud music. In order to continue with music, the pub had to install a device similar to a traffic light sort of thing - if the light was green the noise level was acceptable; if it was orange the volume needed to be turned down and if it went red, it automatically cut the power off.

    Buy the club and a make a bird of prey themed museum. The world needs more of those.

    Talk to Dublin County Council about noise pollution, they can help you out.

    Ask them to turn it down. They might be reasonable people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    put a complaint in when they go to renew the license.

    It's like those idiots building a prehistoric monument right next to a motorway. Will they ever learn?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,304 ✭✭✭✭koneko


    Odds are he moved in next one, instead of one opening up nexto his house, but point taken.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,093 ✭✭✭woosaysdan


    how about you go to the disco every night its on and then when you go to bed the music wont be playing!!! makes sense to me!!!

    or when you go to sleep, you could put on some headphones playing really loud music, hopefully this will drown out the sound of the nightclub;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,466 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    Or play music so loud, the people in the nightclub cant hear, will leave and the club will go bust.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 346 ✭✭coolio_64


    any more tips


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,093 ✭✭✭woosaysdan


    get your flat better insulated to keep out the sound!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,647 ✭✭✭impr0v


    get a job working night shift. there's a nightclub near you that might be looking for glass collectors.


  • Posts: 16,720 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Throw feces out your window at the smokers.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 7,486 ✭✭✭Red Alert


    You were pretty stupid to take the accomodation there, did you do your research? If you don't like it then leave. Ask if they'll turn it down a bit first tho, most of the pub/club systems have different zones in different parts, so they could just lower it in the bit nearest you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 346 ✭✭coolio_64


    look i live there all my life

    i cant help it just gets worse

    My grantparents used to live next to a pub. Then the pub got a license to open a nightclub in on one of the floors in the pub. There was nothing they could do (luckily they were both pretty much deaf so it didn't bother them). But it was a nuissance for other people in the area. The residents compained to the gardai and tried to lobby the council when the licence was up for renewal but it was still renewed.

    The worst part they found was the noise after the nightclub finished with prople shouting and fighting etc for a good hour after the club closed.

    Sorry to drift off, but some people don't choose to live next to a nightclub, so why should they have to put up with the noise or be forced to move simply because one started up next to them?

    Get better glazed windows?
    Get your bedroom sound proofed?
