31 lovely minutes of the legendary Dickies from L.A. back in 1983. Best viewed again on Media Player Classic or Windows Media Player because of the age of the old Mpeg format. I downloaded this one off Winmx (remember that?) Use HJ-Split to join the files together http://www.freebyte.com/hjsplit/
While I'm here I just want to say how disappointed I am with very high downloads and minium comments here lately. Take the last file for example. 84 people have so far fully downloaded Johnny Thunders (which took an almost an hour to rip and nearly 3 hours to upload) and 3 people have said thanks. If you don't appreciate the files then why download them. Even if you think something is naff - at least open your gob and say so.
This is dedicated to the people who CAN be bothered to comment. You will be the first ones invited into the re-vamped private blog if this shite continues.

Yes its not hard is Mark. See I just left one as well.
Thanks for your support Marky. I wouldn't expect you to join the blackout though mate.
Thanks kaitlyneldridge Its always nice to know someone either likes or dislikes a post.

Longy/
If you want, feel free to repost with that upload URL if you want...
Regards/
If they want it mate,they can come over to you and thank you like I just did. Its not differcult to click a link is it lol.
Obviously with yr own words, sure you know what I mean...OK I am searching for the Sid one now...did you see that Wobble Radio programme on Sid that I put up a while back...
Regards/
Yes I know what you mean mate and I appreciate it. The John and Sid one is under Sex Pistols mate.
No I didn't see the that Wobble one either. Your blog moves faster than Gareth Bale did vs Chelsea on Saturday!
Cheers for this Longy - can't wait to see this one. One of the first bands I saw live were the Dickies - back in '79.
Btw, I'll be issuing a similar notice soon - now approaching 2,000 downloads and all I've had is 10 or so comments - mostly from your good self.
Keep up the fantastic posting.
best wishes
Si
Thanks Si. Its incredible that your blog was had so few comments. I can't download anything from a blog without saying thanks. Maybe I'm too good mannered I dunno but it winds me up when you see the amount of thanks you get sometimes especially when you can see how many times its been downloaded.
Beat Ya!
My record so far is 825+ downloads with not one peep!
Regards/
I know what you are saying Longy, One of the files on my blog has been downloaded 900 times with not a single comment so to encourage people to comment the download link is now inside the comments box, it maybe will encourage people to comment while they're in there grabbing their freebie !!
Its still early days to see if it works but maybe you should also give it a try ?
Anyway i've not downloaded The Dickies yet ....but "thanks" when i get round to it.
Keep up the good work mate
So your idea of doing your own blog is out the window now then Mark eh :)
My record isn't quite as high as yours Mona. There is something on this very page that has been downloaded nearly 600 times though.
Hi Vulture. Yep that ain't a bad idea really I suppose. I mean I never ask people to leave a comment - I just have a bit of whinge every few pages if they don't!
Longy/
I wasn't meaning to compare the size of our sex-bits!
The only reason I had that many d/loads was I am sure that someone just leeched my download link - and "No!" they didn't say 'thanx' either LOL!
Regards/
I thought so somehow Mark
Its a good job too Mona! Yes its quite possible someone was reposting the download links. Its happened with me with a few things I uploaded onto a documentary site turning up elsewhere complete with my own write up and links lol.
Longy/
That happens cos we is SO good!
But I DO bowdown (so to speak) as you Chelsea folk will ALWAYS be biger pricks than us LOL!
Regards/
^^^^^^^ bog off ^^^^^^^ don't get "cocky" just because you're still in the Europa Cup :)
LOL!

Funny - I bought The Incredible Shrinking Dickies on CD yesterday - a blast from the past but still as fast, mad and funny as I remember. Just dropped in here because I saw you had a Dickies video, saw your note about the comments, and so thought I would say hello and thanks.
Thanks for your kind words gobshyte. Yes your blog is yet another that is greatly underappreicated (sorry can't spell after a few Strongbows) I will always comment on something I've downloaded even if I do often waffle a load of shit. Its just polite aint it?
Thanks newelectricmuse. Your comment are most welcome.
great blog
keep up the good work
i appreciate your efforts
Lew
Our Labrador Retriever pup likes to sneak in the kids' rooms, find a nice plushy toy, and dash back out of the room . . like he's gonna get away with it. You'd think people would have more sense and be less rude. Eventually, Biscuit will learn this is unacceptable behavior. Too bad the same can't be said for most who come here to 'Grab and go'. 'Tis work enough to up music files, folks. Consider the effort to put the videos here and give thanks where due whether you partake in the sharing or not. Or go chew on yer plushy.
Just to let you know mate that your efforts are much appreciated.
Thanks Lew. Comment appreciated
Thanks stupiddle - thats a different way of looking at things lol thanks
Thanks mullers - as a regualar commenter,my comments were not aimed towards yourself or anyone else who regularly comments. Cheers mate.
Longy lad - that was bloody marvelous - really enjoyed that one.
Again, cheers
Si
Cheers Si. Glad you liked it mate. I'm just heading your way now as it happens.
I have seen on some forums where the download links are hidden by an icon which doesn't become visible until you comment/say thanks. May be worth doing some digging to see how it's done, all the best Bri
Yes it might well be. Thanks Bri.
Hey! Some video from the Dickies! That's gotta be great. Thanks for posting. BTW if you have some stuff from The Lords of the New Church on Spanish TV, that's definitely from La Edad de Oro. 99% sure. They were on the show on three occasions and no other TV show in Spain had the guts to air stuff like that.
Charlie
Hi again Charlie. Well I've had a look and I've gone one from Madrid 1983 so I assume it is. Looks like this
http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=10q9fmv&s=5
Theres annoying writing running across the bottom of the screen and an interview by some brunette bird in the middle of the performance. I'll post it sometime next week if you want it.
Hey, Longy. That's the first episode of La Edad de Oro with The Lords of The New Church on (1983, July 15). The annoying writing on the screen is the Spanish translation of the songs lyrics and the brunette bird was the director/conductor of the show the legendary (at least here in Spain) Paloma Chamorro). BTW I'm not the guy who first showed interest in this show. Actually I got this concert (coupled with another one) on DVD from a torrent site called Dimeadozen. Check it out. Very interesting stuff there.
Charlie
Hello Charlie. Sorry I got you mixed up with someone else there (its all these comments lol) Cheers for that info on LOTNC. I don't get on with torrents as a rule probably because I can't make the bloody things so I'll give that site a miss.
I've started uploading that Lords one so I'll share it anyway sometime next week. Cheers again.
Good blog!!! .... private no, please
thank you very much
cheers anon
