I think you will find it is just a lack of respect for the residents. Even if the trouble is outside the club, they should still be held responsible for their customers behaviour. More widely this behaviour occurs at most of the festivals and fiestas that seem to attract trouble makers, they drink to much, start early in the evening and as most venues and fiestas start after 2300 they are already drunk. Of course they have little or no thought for the locals and residents and it's always the police who have to sort out the problem. The local councils who licence and allow this things to happen only seem interested in the money they make not the impact on the area or residents.
I have sympathy for the long term residents of this area but not so much for the rich northern europeans who are recent arrivals and are complaining about noise from clubs that have been there for 30 years or more. They should have done their research.
