a singer/guitarist who was in a band in the late 50s that had a hit with "Journey to the Center of the Mind". He went solo in the mid 70s. He gained a reputation for his wild stage antics and meandering crazy gonzo onstage rants. He has released many albums but the only good solo songs he has made are "Little Miss Dangerous" (used in an episode of Miami Vice) and the radio hit "
Cat Scratch Fever". Such a small number of good songs from a 30-year+ career is a mighty sad ratio. In the 90s he was a member of the derivative band Damn Yankees. A gun enthusiast and hunting fan, he's caused controversy by his support of
canned hunting and killing animals for no damn good reason. He says that all environmentalists and animal advocates can "kiss his ass". He did his damndest to get out of the draft during the Vietnam War era (1958 - 1975) but now is a cheerleader and
armchair warrior, claiming to "
support the troops". A complete dumbass hypocrite. He visited one of Saddam Hussein's palaces like a spectator after the Iraqi dictator was
deposed. Terrible Ted said he really got a thrill out of that. It's OK to take a look around after the violence has gone someplace else and you're out of danger, isn't it? Ted said that Baghdad should've been "Nagasaki"ed. Sheer ignorance. Since he supports the Iraq War so much, why don't he ship his cowardly ass over to Iraq and fight it as well? He has done and said countless other offensive things. He is a slave to an extreme political ideology. He is now a droid, a brainwashed robot who can't think for himself and cannot accept the diversity that America is supposed to be.
In a concert in Michigan a few years ago, a journalist writing a review of a Ted Nugent concert noted that Ted performed an "idolatrous ritual" of "worshipping the
American flag". Ted Nugent has long been known to be obnoxious in his concerts and such. Now he's also
a pushy extremist
loudmouth cretin asshole programmed by an ideology. Sad.
