‘The Nuge’ rocks campus
Badger Herald ^ | October 26, 2006 | Nick Penzenstadler

Bringing a self-proclaimed extreme right-winger to speak at the University of Wisconsin created a spark that nearly blew the roof off Memorial Union Theater Wednesday night. The conservative student organization Collegians for a Constructive Tomorrow hosted a lecture by rock-legend turned political-activist Ted Nugent. Security guards and a police dog were present at the rowdy room filled with Nugent supporters and objectors of all ages.

Nugent drew a large crowd from the UW campus and surrounding areas. Tom Talbot, who traveled from Portage to hear Nugent, said the rocker’s blunt opinions were entertaining.

“I got to jam with Jimmy Hendrix — he laughed at me because I wouldn’t take his drugs, and I said, ‘Jimmy, you’ve got a booger hanging out of your nose,’” Nugent said.

What does that mean?

I love hearing what the Nuge has to say. He's a pretty straight up guy.
I bought his cook book because my husband hunts, too.

Evidently, Nugent was there for a SPEAKING engagement......
totally different than the Dixie Chicks or Streisand
politically pontificating during a music concert.
Glad I could clear that up for ya.........

My guess is that was Nugent's way of saying "You are laughing at me for not taking drugs yet you have snot coming from your nose."

I'm thinking it meant "mind your own business".

It means Jimmy was so drugged up, he didn't feel the booger hanging from his nose. Ted clued him in.

You are absolutely correct. Ted Nugent relates this very same anti-drug story in his book God, Guns, Rock & Roll that was published a half-dozen or so years ago.
