Organising a stag do near London

I am organising a stag do for about twenty people. All we want to is get drunk, play our music loud and not disturb/interact with other people. This is surprisingly hard to do in London.

The original plan was to set up mini-rave (we have a sound system) but the potential hastle of set up, weather and police was considered too much.

To get the isolation we would have to travel out into the sticks and we are keen not to do this as almost all of us live in London and just want a one nighter. Location-wise it would ideally be near London or possibly on the M1 corridor.

Obviously we could hire a bar or a room in one in London but we will want to be naughty. Any suggestions at all because I am not doing very well.

What's the accommodation situation? Are people traveling home at the end of the night, and if so, by car?

Any neighborhoods which would be central for everyone?

East London is the most central for most people. Ideally people will be able to get back the next day by public transport.

Impromptu moving rave through Greenwich Park? Dressed in early 90s gear with boom boxes? Bit of a flashmob?

If you just want to drink and avoid other people then getting out of London is the best bet - maybe try and hire a house/cottage for a weekend, perhaps in Kent out near the coast?
