He shoulda told that to Elton John, Nigel Olsson was the first drummer I saw with his name on the bass drum, way back when of course, long before Carmine was with Nuge.

Funny since Derek WAS a PRS endorsee singing in the PRS band (wonder what happend)?

Anywho, the drummer is none other than WILD MICK BROWN from Dokken, and when I saw Ted, he seemed to have the most fun on stage, always laughing and smiling.

Teddly's window was much smaller....gimme' a beer and a bow an arrow,...a combo that just doesn't go well with me...and yes he has/had 2 58 Burst that he got from Al Nalli's in Ann Arbor........Soulbro???

You rang?

I thought you could do almost anything down in France... LOL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuT3vYDSON4

Wow, that's a name I haven't heard in awhile. According to Mark Pollock I do the best Tony Dukes impersonation.....

[sgtJoe]

Great show on HDNET now, channel 740 on Charter. It's on again later.

I just thought that Rod quote was really funny. I didn't know Carmine played with Ted.

BTW, the first drummer I saw with his name on the bass drum was this guy...but it was HIS band after all. And probably his van to boot

Dang, I shoulda thought of them, I'm a HUGE Dave Clark Five freak, yeah I saw Nuge when Carmine was with him at a Houston show in the 80's, great show.

I'd love to see Ted and CSN on the same bill.

Correction: I'd like to see them backstage; imagine that conversation LOL.

Agree. I've seen a number of interviews with Ted Nugent on late-night TV and it's rather obvious that he has strong opinions on Constitutional protections and the Bill of Rights. Also he clearly possesses chauvinistic sentiments. Anti-government or a Nazi? No. If anything he is excessively patriotic.

Actually they referred to the russians as 'sub-human'....The Nazi's treated the jews like so much cattle...

I used to enjoy Nugent when I was a teen but he gets on my last nerve now...If he and Rush windbang were able to mate and produce a child it would be a sick combination of the worst phobias from the conservative and liberal sides.....It would be amusing to see them debate in an open forum....I do believe I would chuckle my ass completely off, but then again the fear would eventually set in...But I digress.
