Honestly, I might get hit with a cease and desist letter from Dwight Yoakam. I've been on edge ever since December, when he started sending out the letters to all his fan pages, and groups on facebook forcing all to shut down. I've never heard of an artist shutting down pages left and right like this. The biggest group that was shut down had 14,000 fans in it. From the posts I've seen of these they pretty much say he does not want anything with his name, image, or any of his music or youtube videos being posted without his permission. The letters even go as far as to tell everyone they will be fined $150,000. If you ask on his facebook, or twitter about this subject you get blocked and banned. I wish this was a joke, and a crazed fan doing this but all the letters are from a real firm/lawyer in la. How crazy is that?

i'm struggling to overcome my mental block on getting a tractor... too rational
and don't worry Adje, it's gonna take me a while, possibly a long while, but i will get round to it |
Quote:
so the fact i'm actually gonna go and take a look it, suggests i might be insane. it's in awful condition, i don't need a tractor, i've never had a tractor, i've nowhere to store a tractor, i've no use for a tractor... but I've said for maybe 20 years, if I ever found THAT tractor, I'd get it (for I never expected to see it again) It's a very rare tractor, due to its spec... not valuable, not even desirable but i want it lol |
Quote:
he's not over selling it lol so i've committed to a 3 hour round trip on saturday to view a wreck of a tractor, just cause i think my uncle originally owned it, and i used to play in it. |
a defining day
|
I haven't seen that tractor since maybe the early 90's, and it really was a joy to see it again, but the years haven't been kind.
It needs a hell of a lot of work A Hell of a lot of work!!!! but it has made my year seeing it again lol |
Holy frig, this thread. I been gone too long. Before facebook, the first What's on your mind?:twisted:
|
But are you gonna buy it Duke?
|
I'm working on it...
A replacement cab is proving hard to source, doors are available, but very expensive. Mudguards are still available, sides, nose and bonnet no longer available, but turn up on ebay every so often. And of course, he's looking more money for it than I'm told its worth... but I don't think we're too far away But the cost of all the bits it would need to do it right is quite eye watering. On the bright side, not only is it rare, and mostly complete, it was one of the last ones built before the factory closed. I cross referenced its serial number with the last known one built, and this tractor was only 254 before the last ever one from Bathgate. |
new plan, forget trying to source parts...
try and get storage sorted, and get a price for transportation.. then I can work on getting a deal done... everything else can be gathered up over time, as and when required (hopefully). |
my dislike of apple and itunes has magnified in the last two hours...
that's a lot of good music has disappeared on me |
Well that's annoying, I was fairly confident that stumpjumper was metal loaf on a 2nd account back in the day.
And I don't like being wrong. |
I'm Stumpjumper.

I had to look up what a Stumpjumper is. A mountain bike brand? I don't get it. :?

When I left Netflix I was thinking "wow that was easy, they didn't even convince me to stay for a reduced rate or ask me back".
A year later I get an email almost every day begging me back. |

The most interesting thing about that saga for me is that Patti had/has an interest in mountain biking I guess. |

As for the Saga, not saying anything about it, and Tbh am glad the original thread got closed. And lastly never knew thats what her username actually meant! |
Quote:
There were two ways that thread could have gone when she opened it up for questions. 1) Delve deeper in the rabbit hole of what happened in the past 2) Just ask Patti generic questions. Unfortunately everyone took it as 1... (which I'm not sure she meant as she wasn't actually coming up with specifics indeed.) I would have preferred asking her a) Does she like mountain bike riding, b) does she still fit in the 2006 Tom Rivers festival show outfit, but she isn't communicating with me anymore since 2014 when she thought I was someone I wasn't online. It was case in point of her not listening to her own advice: what is written online and how it is perceived is often not how it is meant at all. Sad that the bitterness between Patti and Meat will be their last chapter by the looks of things. |
Quote:
I wish everyone including Patti and Meat and people who think they are trying to help here well. We all should move on from being bitter on the internet I think. I hope everyone can do that regardless of what may or may not have happened. If the wounds are too great, that is a shame but there is even less point talking about it online I think. That is never going be some type of effective therapist replacement at all I would have thought. |
I think to be fair, people were always going to ask what she was going on about now, rather than generic questions because of the thread she posted in.
If she'd posted in a new thread or one of the existing (albeit basically unused these days) and said ask me anything, people may have focused more on generic questions about her time with the nle, etc. Quote:

New old stock tractor bonnet in North Yorkshire... collection only, won't post.
How am I gonna get that.. especially in a lockdown?? |
RiP Alan. 🤘

Quote:
If I win the auction, he'll get it couriered to me (for a fee, can't say fairer than that) However my last auction purchase arrived today, and it didn't go so well... not compatible with what's already fitted. ya live and learn, and I've learnt that bmw ibus won't communicate with the earlier mbus |
the what do we look like thread was a joy to revisit

Another one will turn up. Eventually..........🤞 |
Quote:
But this is hens teeth rare... brand new, never fitted, long out of production tractor bonnet. But I'm not paying 80 quid delivery, especially when I still haven't got a tractor to fit it to. So I bought a new tool instead, to finally fit a part I got two years ago for a different project :) |
We're down to 60 quid delivery, I still don't think it's heading my direction but ya never know.
Yes I know a lot of people have real, genuine problems and concerns, but I consider this light relief |
Quote:
|
Delivery from Kirkbymoorside in Yorkshire to beautiful Belfast. Apparently it is due to the size that it’s so expensive.
I remember having to order a track control arm from bmw Atlanta, for there were none left in Europe, and it was less expensive to have delivered and had a lot further to travel. But such is life... Meanwhile you found the right thread for posting Live concert dates in lol |
I’ve just got the “I need you to access your work email” phone call, which considering I’m on holidays, suggests to me no tractor bonnet for a different reason.
|
Isn't that just typical... the bonnet and seats (and some other bits) I've been after for the e36 are in Warwick... collection only, no delivery.
If it wasn't for the lock down, I'd be better hiring a van and going on a round England roadtrip to gather up all these bits I've been after. |
<<<<<<<< The actual one, told yas it needed work
|
Due to a change in circumstances, I did a cautious half hearted attempt at winning the auction... and still nearly won it.
But luckily for me, someone else wanted it more. |

Feel like a DIY wreck.
Too many jobs done yesterday. Saturday in the sun. 😎 |
what to do next

I know where all the parts I bought two years ago go, apart from 4 washers.
I'm fairly certain they're no.19 on the parts diagram... but no.19 isn't available anymore, and has no description now. no.20, is listed as a bolt with washer, and I've 4 bolts with washers Am I supposed to use two flat washers per bolt? I wouldn't think so... But I've never fitted one of these before More research required |
No spring washers to go with those flat washers Duke?
|
Quote:
|
No Guy, it only lists flat washers... all the online guides say to use a single bolt with washer, so that’s what I’ll do.
All the guides bar one say to drill out the crossmember, one says just to hammer the inserts in Decisions decisions |
Third highest post count :shock:
6k more than Fred |
I hope the weather holds for a few more weeks, I've far too much still to get done

Day.....something of lockdown.

Assuming Germans weren't working in thousandths of inches back then, 9.9mm hole, which I'm gonna assume was a 10mm hole when it left the factory over 20 years ago, before getting filled with surface corrosion or similar crud. And a 10.95mm insert... 11mm insert isn't gonna fit nicely in a 10mm hole gonna have to drill it |
eBay is dangerous for buying stuff I don't need...
4 bids placed, 3 auctions won... including one I already have. |
I'd love a guinness now

I really should stop reading the old threads, April 2012 was fascinating, loads of great posts on how to fix this place... Loved Michaels particularly
And May 07... good times lots and lots of good times but it's important to learn from the past, so don't reopen old threads! |
The darkness were prophets when they named their last album!
|
Adje, thank you so much for your recent output of video's... great to see a few I'd never seen before. Now I understand a lot of why Meat is so proud of hang cool.. ties beautifully with his philosophy of it's about the work.
But the Sheffield lemon performance really got my attention... not just cause it's as close as I'll probably ever see to my first Meat concert... but cause it's using what I thought was the WTTN stage set up. The big question being, was the whole show recorded? |
We all heard about quantitative easing during the "credit crunch"
Are we going to start hearing about qualitative easing for the eurozone?? |
Quote:
But still not enough clearance to drill it in situ |
Quote:
As for the Sheffield concert. No not the whole concert was filmed. You can even notice cuts during songs ;-) As for professional recordings. Just the venue recordings for the screens in the venue. But I doubt we will ever see those :( |
the dangers of catching up on content after a few drinks, is the sources of the content might get mixed together lol
especially worse when my mind is full of random thoughts |
Great to see this forums very own fire wizard on today’s episode of Doctors.

Live bat 3 stuff on this qbe, I wasn't expecting that
but it's been many many years since it was played with... I was gonna have a play with the chromecast audio, but I can't remember how it works.. and I assume it needs charged... lol I doubt the qbe has seen a power source in over a decade... I never did like mp3's brad on the phone... this must be RAH |
Saturday was completely lost due to my hangover.
I don't know what was more wasted, me or the day |

you could always ask him
but if the next few weeks goes tits up, I might have to volunteer myself instead |
I shouldn't have watched the fraggle rock intro..
that's a catchy tune! |
I've most of Adje's recent content still on VHS, recorded at the time... which reminded me, where the hell have I stashed my good video recorder???
As a hoarder of old tech, it'll be here somewhere, but I don't even remember seeing it since redecorating a few years back.. Worst case scenario, I've a couple of others to test stuff on :) |
I must say, after reading the 10 pages of posts about Tyce's album, I actually can keep my opinion to myself on important topics...
And I still haven't heard it. |
Still on for Nightwish at Wembley in Dec .... I hope !!!
|
after watching some of the Berlin 96 show...
That was my favourite period of the band line up... bat 2 and wttn period superb performances |
I am now rated to fly in clouds. That was a tough checkride.
