Please for the love of god start going to the Rock Garden instead of jamming in your house. You’re ruining one of my favourite bands for me and are being a general annoyance to everyone on the street. You live 3 buildings away from the jam space – stop being assholes and start using it so we can all enjoy our Sunday afternoons without listening to your foolish PA banter and pants too tight blues jams. If I were one of those 9 to 5’ers living next to you I’d shut you down so frigging fast… but since I also love jamming with my friends I let it slide. BUT FOR HOW LONG? Learn some respect or at the very least learn how to kick ass so the suffering is lessened on our ears.

What is qusota? A dyslexic qotsa cover band?
That’s what I was thinking too…
OP typo: QOTSA – queens of the stone age?
I thought the same thing… Josh Homme being the lead singer of Queens of the Stone Age
Regardless whether the band sucks, if they are jamming during decent times of the day, they have every right to.
I don’t understand why they can’t play a little quieter. Here are a few tips:
– Play with brushes or beatsticks
– buy some mutes so the drums aren’t as loud, then everyone can play quieter.
– Put up some heavy curtains or some old mattresses infront of the windows.
