Default Sound-off you wouldn't wanna be caught in

A lot of you probably know this already, on Friday night Rockdale Local Council started playing the likes of Barry Manilow and Sinatra over Brighton Le Sans carparks to stop certain people gathering there.

and a very funny news report:
7 News

I didnt see the story, but ive heard about it. But I dont see how it will work, it will just give added incentive for an improptu sound off against the council.

The Doof Doof will win in the end.

They could do what a few people I know have done. Destroyed the speakers, cut the wiring. That sort of stuff...

Thing is when the doof doof gets turned up the police will get them for noise pollution. There's money to be made from fines so you can be sure the cops will be there. Good idea, they've been doing it to great effect at shopping centres where these tools used to hang out and harass patrons.
Now, if we could only get celine dion and barbra streisand at bankstown plaza.

Oh well you can always do what John Safran did in Music Jamboree to Wollongong council (man that was hilarious).

1. Tap into council speaker wiring playing Sinartra/Kamahal
2. Patch in your own DJ setup
3. Use 'hardcore' rapper to invoke violence using council speakers.
4. Incite LA style riot and madness (ie Clockwork Orange)
5. Ensuing Hilarity
