I know this is going to sound strange but I have a neighbor across the street from me who is a little out there. He has all kinds of political signs and confederate flags outside on his lawn and rarely comes out....EXCEPT at about 7 am and just before 11 pm to play taps on his trumpet. A neighbor has complained to the town and the town sent him a letter but he just doesn't care. And if you say anything to him or yell for him to stop while he plays it....he'll play it again. I looked up our town code as far as noise goes and sure enough you only have to be quiet between 11 pm and 7 am so he knows what he's doing. Any suggestions? I never get to sleep past 7 am and some days he'll play it repeatedly...4-5 times. It's literally driving me crazy and I don't know what to do! This morning a neighbor yelled at him to go to bed and he played it 3 more times after that. This guy just does not care and knows he's making everyone's lives miserable and nothing I've googled has really given me a helpful solution. The police know him and have come to talk to him before but it does no good. All suggestions welcome!!!!

No doubt it is awful but I must admit to laughing when reading your post too. Your neighbor is crazy!!! I don't even know what to suggest except perhaps a trip to the psych. ward for him.

Go over, smile, act like you are enjoying his playing. Ask him to see the trumpet, grab it and run to the sewer and toss it in.
