Wow - I saw Ted 30 years ago at Soldier Field - The best concert I ever saw in my life ... Maybe some of you remember it ...

Gosh...I saw "Keith" and I was humming "98.6."

Okay...so I'm old.

53 tomorrow (gag).

So Nugent was being Nugent and this is somehow news?

Case in point: Nugent closed his 50-minute opening slot with "Kiss My Ass," a guitar-wailing sledgehammer of a song that lyrically links Saddam Hussein with Ted Kennedy, John F. Kerry, Michael Moore, The Dixie Chicks, Jessie Jackson and a host of others not from Nugent's same school of political thought.

I read that again - and I'm not sure I understand what Kevin is complaining about. Maybe someone can explain it.

Add in Mojo Nixon, Reverend Horton Heat and Southern Culture On The Skids and it would have been a perfect night.

Looks like Virginia Beach (06.12.05) is as close as he's gonna get to Raleigh. By the way, on the ticket web site I saw a link for the "Dixe Chicks Tour" and clicked on it - got the following response:

No Events Were Found!

Ah, Ted Nugent:
Probably the next non-Dimocrat (and non-female) governor of Michigan!

Saw the show in Blue State Baltimore last weekend...although I appreciate Ted's enthusiasm, Toby is clearly the better entertainer, with better tunes, a better band, and better stage show.

None of that matters when you're playing for the troops, of course, which is where these two hit it off. For Ted to be doing what he's doing for the troops more than makes up for a few minutes of off-kilter antics while waiting for the superstar to take the stage.

Toby should switch parties...the Dems won't share his values again in his lifetime...

Toby's appearing up here in August and the show is already sold out! But I don't think Ted's going to make it this far up north.

No offense intended to Toby Keith (a great singer and patriot on his own right), but Nuge is a frickin' guitar god. He is the wildman, the madman, the ear-splitting, poon-chasing gonzo icon of millions of right-wingers (myself included, of course) who don't identify with the more stodgy personas of the Republican party (Fallwell types, etc.). Like Sam Kinison and South Park, Ted gets the message across with badass style and plenty of cool to spare.

God, Guns, meat, and Metal-- there's no way that Keith could keep up with Terrible Ted...and when the Nuge strikes up the opening guitar feedback of "Stranglehold", you better watch out!
