Wonderful. Beats pickle ball - at least the pitch changes. FYI quiet hours are 10PM to 8AM according to my deed restrictions.

I think it’s great. Nothing lasts past 8:30 here so what’s the harm?

hey, if a neighbor wants to do it...more power to them...we love music and there is none at the squares currently

we live on a cul-de-sac....we might be more of a connected neighborhood than others

we have multiple holiday gatherings at the end of the street and everyone brings food...on New Year's eve we end about 12:15am and folks from other streets join us...because it's fun!

every street is different....the 4 cul de sac's next to us do nothing as a 'neighborhood'

really depends on the kind of music, volume, frequency and concern where you park. I saw a driveway band where cars were parked all over the place.

Not a fan of this. Force your neighbors to listen to your choice of music? How would you like to hear MY choice of music if its ghetto RAP??

Get my point?

Not everybody enjoys the same things. Check with your neighbors within hearing distance first.

Bring them on, great idea. People should be outdoors enjoying some fresh air and entertainment in a safe environment. What's not to like?

I wouldn't want to be the person living across the street from those speakers when the off-key person sings the third Frank Sinatra song in a row while I'm trying to watch a movie on the TV. I also don't want to be my parents coming up 4 hours from their own home to park in front of my house, and unable to because the entire block is littered with golf carts on both sides of the street to listen to some off-key singer blast Frank Sinatra tunes for the next 3 hours.

So unless you can accommodate all those golf carts in front of your OWN driveway, and can give us some earbuds that will work with our non-"smart" TV set, please keep the off-key singing and Frank Sinatra tunes to yourself.

I LOVE Sinatra tunes but when they are sung by Sinatra and when I want to hear them. No, I'm not a fan of the bands in a residential neighborhood. I'll wait until we can enjoy listening to live music again at the squares again. I prefer my neighborhood to be quiet but that's just me.

There will be one on our street soon and I'm not looking forward to all the vehicles/traffic on our street. Last time there was music on the street the driver of a lost car almost hit 3 golf carts parked in the middle of the street while turning around in a driveway with 4 golf carts parked there. They turned around instead of using the cul-de-sac.
