HONEY I'M HOME!!!
201702906_1_IMG_543x305 (resized).jpg

2 agonizing long-ass weeks until my premium is delivered. 1st track going in--Gone Shootin.

Well hello new favorite thread. Man you guys are gonna be sick of me quick in the next 2 weeks. Sorry bout yer luck.
SO.......12 tracks to work with. With lower pf you kinda gotta leave in Hells Bells and Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be I'm guessing. And that's ok. So 10 tracks...
Or just throw in Powerage I'm thinkin.

1. Ain't No Fun (Waiting Round to be a Millionaire)
2. Dog Eat Dog
3. Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be
4. Rock n Roll Damnation
5. Down Payment Blues
6. Sin City
7. Gone Shootin
Not much room left....

Had to skip High Voltage entirely, 30 years of that album wore it out for me. Is one of the greatest debuts in rock n roll though, and should probably get 1st track spot I guess.

8. If You Want Blood, You Got It
9. Who Made Who
10. Hells Bells
Getting harder to narrow down now...

LOL.
I gotta say, so far this club blows. All the excitement worn out for this title?
Time for some new blood to be spilt up in here. If you want blood...

I guess I just don't understand why there are 2 different clubs. MET pro and premium are different...same club. Why the division? Strikes me as a little pretentious and unnecessary.
Mine is en route...bout a week and a half away from REALLY driving you dudes bananas.

Rob I'm not a good enough player to have that concern. Just a guy that gets a little hard every time that bell is hit.

Looking forward to Dograg gettin in here, if he can figure out how to spell ACDC.

It's gonna take me a long time to figure this ruleset out. And that's ok. Got plenty o time. First I need to throw the Pinball Browser dude $20 and get the songs switched out. Was wondering if anybody has an old school playlist in and how it affects the modes.

I'm thinkin Touch too Much gotta have a spot, if only for Cliff Williams b'dass bassline.

Does anyone know where I can buy a color dmd for this? Thanks.

Huh. An ACDC track I've never heard,...who woulda thunk. Only on the European releases..ok. Man I'm 42 and discovering Back in Black in the 6th grade is unforgettable. So I wore out all their albums a LONG time ago, but a few of them, and Powerage especially, have aged very well. Can't say I've listened to much ACDC the past 20 years really, but Powerage has been crankin here since I bought this bad boy(boogie). Ready to load it up with Bon Scott. Question YeOldPinPlayer...which live album do you like? I like the live version of "Who Made Who?" and wondering which live version might be best.

Already have my PDI waiting King, although it looks REALLY good on my I500 right now, so might have to splurge on 1 more.... dammit. Shit's expensive!

Damn I'm excited to get this!!!
Haven't listened to this much ACDC since I was 12. I'm not really a mod guy, which is a little ironic since this pin has such a smorgasbord of mods available.
What mine is coming with :
-MikeD video mod (only mod I get excited about. YES!!!)
-Laseriffic train topper
-FF speakers, with beer seal
-Cannon mod
-Hooked lightning bolts
-Hooked red metal (lighted?) apron
-TNT lighting
I have the PDI waiting, so besides the color dmd and shaker, what do yous guys consider "must haves"? I think I'm pretty well set. Just need to repair a small section on shooter lane where paint has come up. Sucks, but the price he gave me more than made up for that.
Let there be ROCK!

Hey asshole. You made a wrong turn. You haughty ass millionaires have yer own smug little club over there------------>
And yes, sold out. You can come over and tell me how cool mine is if you promise to keep yer drool off of it.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrow, you're only a day away.
Better not fuck anything up STI. Or we won't be singing Annie songs.

5th time I've had great luck with STI....knock on wood.
THERE'S GONNA BE SOME ROCKIN
IN THE GARAGE TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!

Man I can already tell that this is a deep ruleset. Having too much fun right now just shootin around. G'damn that left/right ramp combo is a rush. Everytime I hit that bell I have to step back from the machine a little.

Almost brought the Polk up, but fired it up and remembered that it has the FF 8" and bb speakers in. But that's coming...very soon. Been on 60 all day.

I need to find a ruleset​ before I start in with my million dumb questions....like this : is there a super skill shot, or is 250,000 the highest?
No such thing as audio overkill on this one Boob.
Have an Orb Audio 300 watt sub on MET...sounds pretty good, still not loud enough though. Think I'm missing something on it, feel like it should sound better. Polk 100 watt going on this when I get er downstairs.

Hey YOPP....will be in Austin next Sunday and Monday night. Where's the sweet pinball parlors​? Hopefully by Stubb's somewhere.

Never listened to any post 1992 ACDC. War Machine is a pretty good Givin the Dog a Bone pt. II. Rock and Roll Train not bad.

SO much going on with this, HOLY HELL.
Got 2x scoring a couple times, but flailed. What's the money shot on that? Lemmy guess...the flashing one. 20 seconds right?

I'm really diggin em tonight.

Know I'm in the minority but I really like the premium translite. I think all the photoshopped pics look perfect. Except Phil. He actually did not have a pulse for his photo. Narcam brought him back for pic #2, but Gary always laughs at pic #1.

The song titles on translite should have been jukebox style like the pf, and really soft, like barely legible. Everything else is killer.

Did not know fire button switched ...HEY KOOLAID OH YEAH! Thanks dude!

Thanks, I know man. Just being excited and lazy. How is that even possible?

Found it.

That's why she married me.

"Dad there sure are a lot of bad words on this one."
"Go to bed."

Was flipping until about 2 am, when the #9 3/4 rubber busted. Dumb question...can I just go pick up a 3/4 rubber ring at Lowe's until I get new Titans?
Also this metal cannon on the Hooked apron is literally rubbing the glass. Makes it tough to even slide glass out. The apron or metal cannon needs lowered. Anybody else have this problem? Thanks.

Is it a Magnum?
I'm gonna run you outta rubbers dude as many as you've given me. But thanks bud..see ya soon.

Or you could bring one over when you come help me haul this bitch downstairs.

Anybody have any speaker panel decals/magnets they really like? Both MET and ACDC need something there. Looked at a few, nothing really grabbing me. Wondering if they just look way better on machine.
Anybody have the flames side art panels? Also wondering how they look...or just stick with mirror blades?

This rubber band once led a pointless, dismal life wrapped around asparagus. Just look at him now!
GOALS.

Sure I'm in that blissful honeymoon stage (and oh boy is it BLISSFUL!), but just thinking how perfect this cab and translite are. When I think ACDC, I think LOUD, coke fueled, Gibson SG blasting through gigantic speakers at warp 100. I used to think the ACDC cab was kinda boring, but now realize how perfectly Stern nailed it.
Luci? Sure all their songs are about gettin laid....but that cab and translite...I just don't get all the fervor. It's just not that big of a deal. Premium cab LOOKS LIKE ACDC.
If you pay $12,000-$15,000 for a Luci you are not just a special kind of stupid, you are also a fucking moron who has no business ever touching money. To each his own I guess...rant off.

No open beers. Those go on the nightstand for breakfast.

I disagree. And I heard she was into golden showers, just trying to please her.

Not saying it's not a cool cab Chef, it is. I just think the speakers are more relevant to the band.
It's cool, but it's NOT $12,000 cool.
Now go fix me a turkey sandwich.

Been listening to a lot of this lately...go figure.
Forgot what a badass riff Angus hammered out in The Razors Edge. Needs to go in too.
20170516_192618 (resized).jpg

Man I bet yer a damn fun guy to work for. Always liked you Chef. Yeah the Lucis are getting crazy. I'm not jealous, I have the SAME GAME. Just strikes me as downright ignorant that newbs/rich assholes are paying such a premium for different art. Not my business though...
Back to the bell....

Thanks King, I saw those, not sure if they're for me. I'm not spending $300 on side blades unless there's a vagina involved.

You got it buddy! It's like everyday is Straya Day!!

You have to turn jukebox on in adjustments. You also have to turn on the live versions that it will switch to if you hit the fire button. How fucking awesome is that??
Thanks YYZGuy!

Coming from you that means a lot bro. I knew you were the real deal the first time I met ya. Heard you were lookin for some Fathom plastics. Still looking?

Honeymoonin.....
or.....
the best fuckin shot in all of pinball? Both.

Iceman : GREAT seller and all around cool cat. He knows how to treat a lady's legs for sure.
20170515_111625 (resized).jpg

Haven't even busted 50m yet.

Can somebody please play that Straya Day vid?

Angus will run(walk) all over you and yer family too on Straya Day.

Hey! When I'm shootin for that bell I AM flying right into that danger zone.

Pat Benatar is fucking spectacular anyway.

There are 5 at Ridgemont High.

I actually bought the Fathom plastics from Kruzman like, 2 years ago...nos. Also have a new bg and not so good pf.

I feel nothing.

Look at Flea.

I wonder if MET will get all crazy like ACDC after production is halted. I don't think it will, cause they sold so many.
But they sold a lot of Angus too right?
They can run whatever the hell they want,... I'm just glad I got my 2 machines that were built before Homer Simpson took over at QC.

Shirley I'm not the only one that goes "Woo Wooo!" when the train does?

Confession : I have actually never heard Flick of the Switch or Fly on the Wall.... should I have? Flamesuit on.

So about 1 in 10 games it will just drain, mid-ball. I know I've been on here long enough to have seen this issue before, but nothing is coming to mind. Also the left eye stand up in lower pf is not registering hits. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks Toads!

You know you asked Santa​ for a Mistress for Christmas ; just like me...and everybody else.

After a whole 5 days....I cannot get enough. Bet I put 300 plays on since Mon. My ONLY complaint : even with FF speakers and it on 60 it still is not loud enough. I need some amps for both girls pronto. NPO's guide is really helpful, but what if I wanna put 100 watt speakers in bb. What size amp would I then need?

SO deep...so on War Machine I just keep hitting the spinner? Can that shot be backhanded?
Let's help Gryszzz one song at a time.

Freezie....you get yers yet? Excited for ya dude!

DON'T DRINK
DON'T FIGHT
DON'T SLEEP AT NIGHT
and SHAKE A LEG

Snare could be better.

Damn that's a tight shot.

Just wondering....
With the music pin market cornered, why doesn't Stern put 4 or more speakers in the bb? To get ill-like loud.
Speakers and amps..... speakers and amps. Instead of worrying about visual, how bout the audio? I want an Audiophile LE with an extremely loud, clear and crisp sound.

Whole bb full of speakers would be pretty gd awesome.

Pardon my idiocracy, but what makes the Pinsound board better than Pinball Browser? I understand the sound will only be as good as its source, but if you swap everything with PB, couldn't you theoretically have 4, 6, 8+ speakers in bb?
Surely someone has made/modded a pin with insane audio.

I do have external sub, haven't hooked it up yet. Yes, will make difference. No board issues...I just like it REALLY loud. Like, insanely loud.
You know that greasy lookin dude at the red light with Cannibal Corpse so loud it's rattling yer windows? That's me.

1 is the loudest available setting correct? These FF speakers are nice, but they need some amps driving them to sound their best. At 59 the sound starts breaking up....needs more power.

ForensicD's Slimer LE has pretty good volume, better than all other newer Sterns. What did they do different?

Ahh... didn't realize that. I thought that since PB used your/my files that they would now be in stereo. Damn. Thanks for pointing that out.

WTT : ACDC for GNR.

Looks better than stock, that's about it.

Was just kidding YYZGuy. But it would look better in teal.
HOLY HELL this machine is an ASS KICKER. Still haven't busted 50m. Finally figuring out the left loop...tip o the flipper is a tough shot for me. So on War Machine, I hit the spinner...over and over, until what? Got the super target scoring last game...that was pretty cool.
YYZGuy make me a log dude!

That's great Aurich, but how in the fuck do I beat War Machine?!?!

Thanks guys. Trying again right now.

Well that was fast. Back again. Next time I'll try to keep my eyes open better.

Dumb question....when I eventually switch out the songs with PB, how do you guys replace the pf jukebox song titles​? Just wondering. Also wondering that when you switch up tracks, you also need to swap in the live versions for jukebox mode? (Thanks again YYZGuy for that info!!!)

So I bought Flick of the Switch last night and all of a sudden it's crystal clear when everything went to shit for them.

...hence the 'beat'. Aurich knew what I meant.

HOW IN THE FUCK DO YOU MAXIMIZE POINTS FOR EACH SONG?
Better?

Sorry. Uncalled for caps.

Hey why don't you fellas hold hands whilst surfing into a rock?

HEY WHY DON'T YOU FELLAS HOLD HANDS WHILST SURFING INTO A ROCK?
Better?

So how do I beat For Those About to Rock?

Man I wish the songs didn't start over everytime. Bet Gary fixes that for Vault.

CONGRATS FREEZIE MY MAN!!!
We're late to the fuckin party man,...but we made it!

It's than, and then kiss my ass.

I really don't like Billy Joel, or anyone with two first names, but I've always liked that album cover.

Slowly figuring out to keep that bell loaded up ready for 3rd shot for multi-ball.
Fuckin spectacular when ya hit that super skill shot for 700,000. Double scoring so much easier to hit then MET, but my scores don't reflect that.

Dumb question...where does the #1, 3" rubber go? Looking at manual, a lot of numbers are not on diagram. Where in the hell does a 3" rubber go?

#1,2,4,5,7,8,10,...where are all these corresponding rubbers? Different page maybe?

Guys please forgive my ignorance here ; my MET didn't come with a manual. So this is my 1st Stern manual, and for the life of me, I can't figure out why they have 17 different size rubbers, but only show 11 of them on the pf diagram. I've looked up and down my machine and don't see a 3" anywhere? What am I missing??
20170605_181217 (resized).jpg

Don't fret assholes...I think me and Scooby mighta solved this one. Is the left page 12 just a generic page in all Stern manuals and page 13 my machines corresponding rubbers? I don't know...let's ask Daphne.
Nuttin more exhilarating than puttin yer ineptitude on public display!

Hello?
Mr. Obvious?
Long time listener, first time caller.

UPDATE: this club still sucks.

Hey Teal Time!
Got yer mod today. I honestly think it looks damn good. Thanks buddy!
Will post pics after I dig out of trash.

Seriously...this looks great man! What's the angle of wood for though? Confused on that. Don't these just adhere to the metal? Thanks again homie.

Ahhh... behind the drops!
Was that so hard assholes?
Fuck this club.

Thanks Dr. Spidey!

Behind the drops...and blue eyes.

I have my music volume at 1... standard adj #47.
Music volume on feature adj #124 on -59. Feature adj #125 speech volume on 1. I have mine at maximum music volume. Is there a different way?
