Drunk people partying on the streets are pretty common in Russia. But in my town, for example, if they starting to cause trouble or cry drunken songs too loud police usually quickly deals with them. I remember when my wife visited Belarus for the first time and we were walking with her by the streets of Vitebsk around 11 pm she was really surprised how we didn't see any drunk persons at the streets. But right after she said that we were approached by a completely drunk guy with a black eye. He was very polite though, asked for a cigarette and left. And I said to her: "See? And you were worrying. You can feel like home now".
