Morning Service
Yes, he may hold the service earlier so that you won't hear it being still asleep.
Seriously, I don't think much will change.
It's the culture.... :lick:

Get your neighborhood together, get some amplifiers, huge speakers, and start blasting explicit reggaeton and mambo callejero music at the same time (5 am). Make sure your speakers are on your private property. Best even if you have a high fence and you're locked up inside so nobody can call upon you. They might call police, but I think it will be lost case for them when the cops show up, if their music is as loud as yours. If they tune down the music, you tune down yours. If they later tune it up, you tune up yours.
P.S. Or even better, get another religious prayer recoding (e.g. muslim, jewish, etc.) and blast that one loud. Why? I have one heard a pastor saying that blasting loud music was their "religious right". You may do the same, have the same religious right. I think they will "get it" if their music will be interlined by the same loud recorded prayer "Allahu Akbar" ...

Just hand him Snoop Dogg's latest disc and tell him you prefer "listinin to da gangsta funk".
tell you what ? we had similar religious nut before. granted, he was not blasting halleluiahs at 5 am but he set up his shop somewhere between midnight and 1am. maybe he was trying to scare the evil away ? we all know midnight is ghost hour. it was also not as much music as screams and shrieks with barely intelligible amens.
men (and women) of the west tend to drift towards those noisy song and dance churches one sees in movies about harlem; you know, a choir of aretha franklin and james brown lookalikes dressed in white sheets swaying to the sound of drums. and people shouting ?he is right!?, ?amen?, ?lord bless? to punctuate full stops in a preacher?s talk. church of the east is rather sombre and boring, if i may say, and the only ones attending early morning mass are some old bats who leave their numerous cats for one and only daily trip outside their kingdoms of moths and dust. somehow i cannot imagine those ladies being animate about anything, even the second comming would be met with noncommital grunt
anyways, back to our insane midnight preacher. he really made me think fondly of satanist cults with their quiet whispered black masses at secluded cemetery, the only sound ? a brief cry of a scapegoat ? swiftly muffled by a quick slash of a dagger. no amplifiers either.
dear man, there is no hope for you. if you want you can blast them with some death metal ? if you can bear it. i suggest spanish anvil of doom or nahemah. or, alternatively, a british band with a very fitting name: extreme noise terror. although something tells me that your neighbouring church might have already adopted their hit song ?3 a.m. eternal?...

if you are within 500 meters or so, purchase a CB radio and a small black box called a "boot". A 100 watt boot will be plenty at that distance. Connect the boot to the CB and either key the handset or feed your own audio to the microphone. Use a 12 inch bit of wire or coathanger as an antenna on the output of the amplifier and you will be able to broadcast right into their PA system due to the horrible RF leakage at around 30MHz. Keep in mind that you will also damage nearby VHS tapes and other magnetic media, but no doubt you will put a quick stop to the morning rants that are ruining your solitude.
Another option is called a HERF weapon, and can be built by anyone with a bit of electrical knack using an old microwave oven. You will certainly put their audio system out of order, but you need a 100 foot or better line of site from the magnetron wave guide to their audio system.
The CB talkover device is great fun though. Get a Boss VT-1 voice changer and you will sound like the dark lord himself. Imagine the fun!

Let's be serious about this, our friend is having a hard time.
OK, in DR exist a department called "Policia antiruido" but maybe at the local police station of Cabarete or Sosua, they don't have this department so he will need to go to set an argument to Puerto plata or Santiago as well.
I hope this can help

as much as i enjoy the options of blasting them with a microwave or hijacking their signal, i don't think either will work.
for some reason this morning they didn't play.
i wonder if lobbying the competing political party would help. or even easier, is there someone I can bribe to have them shut down???

Oh Matilda, Hilarious - yet oh. so. true.
I am laughing so hard I am coughing. I remember the early morning "sharing" of loud music any time I dared to sleep outside of a hotel.
Local color. Hard to bear at the time, but a lifelong memory. Maybe like childbirth?
Thanks to all posters. I am enjoying this, miles and miles away, on the coldest night o' the year, stuck on bed rest with inflammed bronchials.
I am so interested in the updates.
Buenas noches,
Sammy
