Way cool Scott. Did you give Uncle Ted an Ultimatum T-shirt or CD??

No. Didn't give Ted anything this time. Last time I met him we gave him a CD. I've given Ultimatum CDs to tons of artists including Overkill, Dio, Fireball Ministry, etc.

Cool. Have you ever heard feedback from any of'em? Although I don't suppose Ultimatum is exactly Uncle Ted's kinda thing. During the VH1 "Supergroup" show he wasn't crazy about having to learn one of Evan Seinfeld's Biohazard songs for the "Damnocracy" gig, he made it quite clear that he's not big on the heavier stuff

Yeah, but Biohazard it's another thing...I mean they are not like Ultimatum. Hey Scott next time it's gonna be you who'll sing...! Not Sebastian Bach...!

You lucky ass! Ted is one of my fav guitar player...!

Can't say I agree with everything Ted has to say, but when he let's his guitar do the talking, well that's another story!

Oh heck no. I don't agree with everything he says either. It's all about the music. That's what makes me a fanatic. I've been a Ted Nugent fan since I was in grade school (literally). Much to my parents dismay, they purchased me Double Live Gonzo in 1978 when I was in grade school. When they found out about all the cussing on the record they wanted to confiscate it, so I handed them a copy of a Blondie album instead.

Awesome pic Ult! and a killer set list! I'm jelious!!!

You look nervous!!!! just playing lol.

Bet that was cool

Good photo, and Ted still looks great. My father looks smurf poo next to him lol.

Clean living, exercise, good eating, etc. will do that for you.

Spirt of the Wild is one of Ted's best. Fred Bear is an awesome song.

Hey Scott, is that the Nuge in the video for Nickleback's song "Rockstar" playing guitar in his Jocks on a mian street ? I wouldn't know much about the man but I though it was him


Cool picture boss, glad you enjoyed yourself, it's great when you meet some of your idols, I met Gerry Adam lately too ! (he's the Harry Potter of Irish nationalism)

.

A casual fan, I know that he is a guitar genius and I love that he speaks his conservative mind. In rock music liberals abound and yap their jaws about everything under the sun, so I love to hear someone with views closer to mine (frankly I'd wish celebrities would perform and keep their views to themselves, but as long as they do, it is good that there is SOME balance, albiet little). I do need to get some Nugent CDs seeing as I only had a greatest hits album that I don't have anymore.

Missed this question. I don't know. I'll have to see if I can find that video on YouTube.

I can take this one. Nuge does appear in the video for Nickelback's "Rockstar," but he's not the guy in his undies playing guitar. That guy is a semi-famous New York City street performer called "The Naked Cowboy." He can be found wandering around in the Times Square area quite often, in all sorts of weather, just walking around in his tidy whities and a cowboy hat & boots, strumming his guitar... He turns up on the local TV morning shows every once in a while. Just part of the weird, local color of New York City.

Ahh right, cheers for that, I did think it was the same guy, as Ted appears elsewhere like you said and the cowboy is a bit further back in the pics, Cool Vid too.

Yea, it is a cool vid. When it comes on I try to see how many celebrity cameos I can catch.

The Naked Cowboy guy was kind of an odd pick, since he's not really known outside of the NYC area. I guess they shot bits of the video in New York and couldn't resist including such an, er, "colorful" character

Cool pic. You look like someone I wouldn't wanna piss off. Your brother could pass for a young James Hetfield.

Journey to the center of your mind? Do I like the Nuge? You seriously have to ask that question? Does anyone wanna get mellow? Does anyone wanna get mellow!? Well you can just turnaround and ..............

Yeah I think I like the Nuge. No real favorite album, but I for some reason, I always seem to crank Double Live Gonzo the most.

The first album is the best.

Ted rules!

Was listening to Love Grenade and Craveman. Two solid, hard rockin'
guitar albums. I can't think of to many artists from the 60's &
70's that are still releasing great material like this.

The Nuge Rules

Allthough I Find Some Of His Views Slighty Misguided IMO

But None The Less Awesome Guitar Player Who Makes Awesome Records
