Thanks to Chris on the Aopa board for finding this for us:
Livermore, CA (LVK)
Was listening to Livermore Tower earlier today on LiveATC and there was a Cherokee (Warrior) in the pattern ignoring radio calls!! Yet a few minutes later confessed he had "heard everything" and didn't want to talk due to all the commotion. Yep - he got the # to call! It was unbelievable. Here's a transcript.... (other aircraft calls omitted). There was definitely no commotion during the half dozen times tower requested him to rock his wings, yet he didn't acknowledge...
Here's the aircraft, by the way:
