MikeRom Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 D-e-t-r-o-i-t Music Awards (formally the Metro-Times Music Awards) are inducting the Amboy Dukes into their hall of fame. All of the remaining original members are going to be there ... including Uncle Ted !!!!! Going to play a couple of tunes too I'm soooooooo there. I'm so excited, I have to pee I'll try to get pics and some video (not of me peeing) For some reason d-e-t-r-o-i-t is a bad word and got *'ed out.

Jesus Is Dead In My Basement Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Did Ted Nugent go on his Bigoted tirade during the concert? It isnt a a true Amboy Dukes concert until you have Ted Nugent wielding Machine Guns around spewing dumb pointless nonsense and then have his Moral Crusader Sean Hannity defend his rants.

Obviously one's political persuasions do not change on one's 31st birthday. Yet we do expect liberalism of the youth and conservatism of the aged. One of my favorite humorous Churchill quotes I heard from a history teacher of mine. I cannot vouch for it's accuracy, but ... When a speech editor chastised Churchill for ending is sentences with a preposition, he reportedly replied... "That is the sort of thing up with which I shall not put." Well put, sir!

If Thomas Paine was alive today he would be hated by you Conservatives and probably would be ridiculed and called Anti American by the GOP. "The Christian religion is a parody on the worship of the sun, in which they put a man called Christ in the place of the sun, and pay him the adoration originally payed to the sun." Thomas Paine "I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of.

Homz Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I think Ted is a solid rocker, but his status as superstar is more hype then reality. His politics always make me chuckle a bit and I do like to hear him talk, but I can't take much of it seriously. I would probably go see him play music, but I'd rather see whole lot of other folks first. But, that's just my opinion. I'm sure it will be a good show. Have fun.
