I have called the cops on my own house-persons at 5 in the morning and pretended to be a neighbour when I wanted to sleep and they woudln't STFU. hehe. But, only after we'd stolen the speaker cables(their response was shoving bare wires in their laptop socket--> speakers), told them to turn it down multiple times, etc. Funny thing was, they'd all decided to light up about 4 minutes after I called.
But yes.. as long as you let your neighbours know, and in fact, I'd let the local cop shop know.. telling them you plan on having a 'party', you've let your neighbours know and it shouldn't be too hardcore. If you get in first, you generally wont be told to cool it unless its super late and they are called multiple times. The cops will first ask the caller if THEY have gone and asked the people to turn it down yet, and in most circumstances will tell them to go ask you to stop, before they will come over. Especially if they've already been told about it and they know you've told your neighbours. The last thing they can be f'ked doing on a friday night is going to a house where there is no violence/drugs (hmmmmm )telling people to just go to bed.. there are far more important things to be doing.
