Love The Whackmaster!
Great White Buffalo is one of my all time favorite songs.

haha well, just makes me wonder who else you haven't heard of.
I was never a big fan of his until I saw him live...wow. Of course, I was a teenager in the late 70's/early 80's so he was still in his hay day and it was more about his music than his political views, etc. But...I readily admit that I have watched, and enjoy, his hunting shows.
nothing beats ted's blood curdling scream in a dark Hemisfair Arena and his subsequent swinging down to the stage on a vine in a loincloth with a spotlight on him while a roadie tosses him his axe as breaks into Wango Tango...
, my first concert was when I was 7 or 8, my parents took me to a KISS concert at Hemisfair. WTF were they thinking???
guitar wankery, nothing more.
GnR sucks, and so does Slash
Nugent kicks ass...IMO, he's the best live guitarist ever. He's definitely the best that I've ever seen, and I've seen many.
Other things I learned from this thread...
ballijuana is an idiot who lets a person's political view bias his views of their music...that makes him an intolerant bigot as well as an idiot.
If I let the political views of musicians influence my appreciation of their music(or artists art etc) I wouldn't like very much music.
Frankly speaking...Ted Nugent kicks the shiit out of Lynyrd Skynyrd G'N'R and most of the other bands ballijuana listed.
Secondly...I don't know what makes you think Lynyrd Skynyrd are a bunch of left wingers...we'll just chalk it up to ignorance, which is easy to do in your case.
Bt basically...you respect heroin addicts and wife beaters over a guy that is pro-American...
Yeah..you got your head on straight.
pee wee doesn't know good muisc.
Evan is a incomprehensible idiot..I have no idea what point he was making but if it had anything to do with Nugent he was wrong.
And the guy loves his country...and is proud of it, the fact that some Americans would actually hold that against him says more about how worthless they are then it does anything about Nugent. You aren't enlightened...you're just bigoted.
PS: David Robinson loves his country too, so does Gregg Popovich, San Antonio is a military town.....so why don't you stop being a Spurs fan you stupid piece of bandwaggoning . I know, I know...that's different right?

Nugent licks Slash's balls.
Hey ballijuana...
Does it bother you when Manu wraps himself in the Argie Flag and rates playing for the Argie national team more important than winning an NBA gold? Do you consider him a flag waiving nationalist fascist? What about when Parker does it? What about Duncan's loyalty to the VI?
Does it bother you when those guys love and support their country, or just when Americans do it? I know...but it makes you sound so smart to make those sorts of comments.
Idiot. Hypocrite. Idiot.
Try me, I've seen many perform live.
Neill Young, Carlos Santana and ZZ Top were others that played the festival over here last weekend.
Peewee listens to Fleetwood Mac.
Fleetwood Mac is the too
Uh no....Ted Nugent has forgotten more about playing the guitar than Slash will ever know...and that's not a knock on Slash who is a fantastic guitarist...but he's not in Nugent's league. Very few are...Hendrix, Clapton...it's that kind of company, with the exception that Nugent is definitely better live than Clapton and probably better than the heroined out Hendrix was...the Isle of Wight vidoes I've seen(or maybe it was the Montery Pop fest)Nugent kicked Hendrix off the stage.
hmm, just weird that you had never even heard of him. Had you at least heard his music?
You're just insane.
Nope, but I am a fan now!
Searching on YouTube for his masterpieces, I did come accross some radio outtakes and his voice does seem familiar to me as I think I listened to his shows while driving through Texas with my friends the 5 times I was up there.
I am realy surprised about me not knowing about The Nuge too, especialy because I have a very broad taste in music ranging from Aerosmith to Delinquent Habits to Muse to Busta Rhymes and as I said having seen many live performances at numerous festivals and single concerts.
Have you ever seen Nugent in concert, yes or no?
I'm not talking about now that he's sixty...I'm talking about when he used to jump off 10-12 foot amps in concert stuff like that...
Yes, I have.
And, I think Slash is a much better guitarist.
Eric Clapton is a much better guitarist than Nugent, as well.
IF his voice sounds familiar it's probably because it's not his voice...he's not really a singer, although he will sing lead from time to time...but he more often than not has a lead singer both on tour and in studio.
IF you ever hear Ted and he sounds like Meatloaf...that because it is Meatloaf...who did most of the lead vocals on Free for All...the rest of the time it's probably Derek St. Holmes...if you hear Great White Buffalo, that's Ted. I think he always sings that one himself.
You think wrong...he's not.
Eric Clapton is a much better guitarist than Nugent, as well.
Yeah...but not live.
It is you who thinks wrong.
Maybe if Slash ran around with a raccon tail tacked to his ass you'd appreciate him more.
Gimmicks must go a long way with you.
Slash has a gimmick. The long curley hair and the top hat.
But, he doesn't have any animal parts protruding from his person.
Hats are totally appropriate.
As for his hair . . . he's half black, what's a gonna do?
3/4s of your Reggae idols would be classified as gimmicky because of thier hair, using your rationale.
