I somewhat agree with you that being loud once a year isn't that bad but .... if I was to do it I'd invite the entire neighborhood (which is also ends up being notification and a chance to object) Also, in Japan this would almost never happen. If someone wanted to throw a loud party they'd rent a space for it. That doesn't seem common in the USA in my experience. But, having gotten used to it in Japan, it's kind of disappointing that it's not more common. Sure you can sometimes rent an entire bar or restaurant in the USA but it seems super rare where as it's common in Japan. On the other hand, it's also not common in the USA to pay for a party but in Japan no one blinks an eye if someone invites you to a party and says "We're having a party Friday night. It's $30 a person" I know it's not entirely the same because it's indoors.
