    I learned this a few minutes ago and it cracked me up:

    He also won some sort of student deferment during a period when he was playing 300 shows a year with the Ambody Dukes.

    Still, "Journey to the Center of the Mind" rules.

    I give Nugent a pass on everything because he's so damn entertaining. The guy is completely insane.

    Actually, that's not true either. He changes his story all the time, but at various times he's admitted to smoking a joint with the MC5 (a better band, to be honest), and at various times has admitted to trying cocaine and snorting a line of speed before a meeting with the draft board.

    To modify the cliche, better have Ted Nugent fighting over there than having him fighting here. :D

    I'm worried that he is driving on our streets, and carrying firearms. But hey, he rocks!

    I disagree with Nugent on many issues (and agree with him on a few), and this story is hilariously wrong, but I still think the guy is entertaining as hell on and off the stage.

    i've seen and read him swear he has stayed sober. (see his august op-ed in the wall street journal)

    MC5 is one of the worst bands ever. Maybe Nugent's body of work isn't impressive, but compared to MC5 he's the Beatles.

    I'm periodically mystified by someone claiming that "Kick out the Jams" is a classic. That thing stinks on ice.

    If Al Queda was made up of an army of Gibson Byrdland's, you may be on to something.

    A guy I was friends with in middle school is his son-in-law.

    Imagine that.

    Within the context of when it was recorded, I put Kick Out the Jams in classics category...

    I was at a construction kick off meeting and one of the foremen introduced himself as Nugent. The others loved. It turns out the guy was Ted's brother.

    Nugent's reality show sucked worse than his music.

    Though Stranglehold is pretty good.

    Nugent's best songs are when he doesn't sing, and the Damn Yankess sure does suck.

    This was the guy that got on stage with all of those guns and acted all super tough, yet he 'dodged' the draft? Hmmm....

    What? There are few things sweeter than watching vapid pretty teens tormented.
    He was just using his familiarity with nature to employ survivalist tactics in a dangerous situation, and come out alive.

    The intro to Wang Dang Sweet Poontang ain't too bad, either. That's about as far as it goes with me and Ted's music, tho.
