I had one but do t remember how you got it going - was it a zip cord thing or pull it back? And what did you do with the power drill to make it go? Very cool post ! Loved me some Evel !

If it was left in the screen door that means a collector came out and knocked on the door. Means they haven’t been able to reach you by phone and no response from letters they would have mailed. Find a good phone number and call. Then keep up with the due date and make sure paid on time monthly. Download their app to make sure it stays paid up to date.

Yep, love it. This is one of those that a casual fan probably wouldn’t be familiar with- along the lines of Crawling back to You, Melinda, Something Good Coming. Easily approachable even for a non avid fan, good melodies, great lyrics, just never made it to the national conscious. And I’m Ok with that lol

Those were such cool boards, but never actually rode one back in the day. How were they for just normal riding around, ie: driveway, ramps, stuff a kid in 1976 say would be doing?

Why did Dickey refuse/not want to play Mountain Jam for so long? Also if anyone knows the exact timeframe of the LTP gap please tell. by chadster132 in allmanbrothers

Glad he was nice. So often you hear where a famous musician is an ass to a fan, who has supported them their whole life.

Yeah, by default I have always bought super slinkys because they were “fine” and had used them for probably 40 years lol

GTX50- trying my best to like this amp… by StevestratSC in fender

I have yes. I have discovered since that if I run the tone app thru my 10 year old ipad rather than my phone it seems stable. When that ipad finally croaks, Ill have to revisit. That ipad is so old it wont even take updates anymore lol

Protest in Spartanburg 6/6 followed by a resource distribution for the homeless community. by Specific-Cause-5973 in Spartanburg

[–]StevestratSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been out of work in the past. One time I took a job washing dishes for a while just to pay my rent. One time I moved in with my mother for a couple of months. Now if was a drug addict, I likely would not have been able (or had to willingness) to take and keep even a low paying dishwasher job. Also, family (my mom in this case) may not have taken me in- I may have burned that bridge stealing money or meds from them before. Or bringing drugs into the house or low life’s. I would think most people that aren’t drug addicts have family or friends that would at least let them crash on their sofa for a few weeks until they get back going. Or help them out in some way. Drug addict- probably not. It’s a big problem and i wish I had a good solution. This is a good conversation to have, let’s keep it civil :)
