I used to love Ted Nugent

He was a free spirit, really was a huge outdoors person and preached about protecting the environment...and he puts on one hell of a concert.

But he is a piece of turd. I actually through his CDs away yesterday. I know I will never listen to them again. What a waste.

I don't care for his style of music at all. When the screaming starts I turn it off no matter who it is.

Just call me blues man Dave

If people want to listen to that kind of stuff, more power to them, but I'd recommend they eschew Crusty-Trouser-Ted's stuff on principle.

the band I was in at the time played 'Cat Scratch Fever'.

On the other hand it's not much of a song to learn.

But we're getting older and (a little bit) wiser now.
A couple of years ago, I went to a record collector's shop and tried to sell my nugent lps and cd. He wouldn't take them so I threw them away. Glad you saw the light as well.

Not very many cool riffs or rythms, too many solos and anthemic choruses. Basically mindless "party hearty" music.
