Location: Stow, Ohio | A few weeks ago I posted that I sent a guitar to Ted Nugent to sign before it makes it's way to the troops in Iraq......well.......I just got it back today, along with a hiney load of his latest CD "Love Grenade" and various other stickers.
Ok here is a picture of the guitar.
The guys at the post office new who I sent the guitar to, and couldn't wait for me to open it so they could see it......of course they grabbed a couple of cd's and stickers for themselves LOL! |

When my wife turned forty I said I was trading her in for two twenty-year-olds.
She said I wasn't wired for two twenty. |

Location: Chicago | I lived for most of the 90s in Ann Arbor where I'd listen to the Nuge live as a guitar-jammin' DJ Wed. mornings on "The Bear, Detroit's Rock Animal" (WWBR 102.7: this short-lived station was great while it lasted, '96-'99). Ted has a great talent for pissing off all sortsa folks who take them selves too seriously. He'll take on anyone and kick their ass. Lately, I've heard conflicting reports. A buddy of mine (Nuge fan) saw him last summer and said the show scared the bejeezus out of him on an ideological level. Not sure exactly why. |
