how do i fix this problem.. our bedroom is about 20 feet from the
room that she plays her drums from 9pm to midnight every night..
we like the family, we've never had a problem with them.. and we
have nothing against her playing her drums any other time.. but we're not
super close or anything.. so what should i do? cause it's starting to
drive me insane..

Talk to her or her parents (I don't know how old she is) and explain the situation. Typically, these problems are solved with a friendly chit-chat rather than a nasty letter or calling the police. Our neighbor just had a talk with the guy across the street about a problem, they resolved it, shook hands...not a big deal.

Hope you get this resolved....because that noise every night would really suck.

I think you're supposed to swat her nose with a rolled-up newspaper when she does it.

I had a similar problem with a neighbor with a a fondness for hip hop and stereo loud enough to strip paint.

I asked nicely that the loud stuff stop and diplomatically pointed out the basics about peace disturbance.

She was a bit defiant until the police knocked on her door. Another neighbor called 'em. Apparently she threatened to sign the ticket the next time the police had to come by.

No problems since.

A friend of mine told me that if you are old enough to go to the store, you are old enough to get bred.

If you try to pick up a loaf, Leroy, you're likely to get sliced.
