I loved the Amboy Dukes when I was a kid... living in Detroit... I saw them at Wayne State football field... took the bus all the way there and back. Too bad Ted's such an asshole these days. This rocked!!!
People are afraid of a hard, alpha male American...usually the people who got their asses beat when they were kids....they can't relate to what Nugent stands for today....fuck the politics of the past....what Nugent does now for the troops is worth 10 times what he could have done in Vietnam and a cook or supply guy...
I don't see anyone crucifying Muhammed Ali, Bill Clinton is forgiven all past transgressions by ya'll and he fucked up his whole career...get a grip nancies
Why TED NUGENT, and even the AMBOY DUKES are not in the ROCK N ROLL hall of fame is a friggin crime, Their probably afraid to put TED in because he will melt the fuckin place when he gets to jam, It is a crime .
@MrWolf243 LOtsa crime about that Hall of Fame. It's the same reason the academy awards are a joke. No worry, they'll all get in soon enough...real rock is on the rocks.

It was good to see John Drake again.When him and Ted Played the Mummp @Northland all summer of 67(give or take a year)I was there.This was before thier albums.It was too bad the band broke up.I remember thier outside concerts,one @ a mall by 14 and I-75,the other in front of the Det. library(I think it was a library)on Woodward.Those were the days.
Tedly, my old good friend! Whack-Master doing his thang! Eddie van Halen touted Ted as his guitar idol. And TN can play "creemier" than Clapton! DMA clip Steve!
i know that john drake didnt look or sound as good as he did back in the day, but look at his face at 0:34. as soon as he heard that first lick, u can tell that for a brief moment , he looks like he did when he first performed this song with the boys
Who believed at the Detroit Music Award 2009 still with "Journey to the centre of the mind" the Amboy Dukes would have crossed the zenith, that is taught at the latest with this performance from "Baby please don't go" of a better. This rocks and rolls only in such a way that it is a pure joy. LET'S ROCK from Germany!!
I remember when Ted used to boast that He was the fastest Guitar on the Planet. I must have seen Him in concert 10-15 times between 1974 and 1979 down in Texas and He never let Us down. Always a super high energy show. I learned a lot of great lead guitar chops listening to Uncle Ted in My youth.
I have always been a Ted Nugent fan since I heard him live in 1970. I play jazz now and I still dig Ted and the Dukes. He is certifiably insane now but I still like his music. He is a great guitar player and the early Amboy Dukes stuff was creative and unique.
Nuge is a Total Hypocrite. his work with the Dukes glorified drug use, now he' claims he never did Drugs. He also never Grew as a Guitarist, still churning out the same stuff from 40+ years ago. That folks think he's a genius now only shows the lack of current musical knowledge . You want to hear a Great Guitarist, listen to some Robert Fripp, and Be Amazed !!
@TwinPeakin You Idiot. The late 60's and through the 70's was all about sex, drugs and rock and roll. At that time it was the Amboy Dukes...not just Ted Nugent.
@TwinPeakin LOOK AT TEDS LICKS WITH THE DUKES AND THEN WATCH THE REUNION VIDEO....THIS ONE....YOU KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING- TO SAY THAT HE HAS NOT GOTTEN BETTER OVER THE YEARS....AND ADDED MORE TO HIS SUPERB PLAYING SKILLS!!! I AM A PLAYER...AND I AM A FAN OF HIS TALENT.. TED WAS 19 WHEN HE WAS THE DUKES...ARE YOU KIDDING.?..HE IS NOW 60...HE IS NOT A HYPOCRITE..AT LEAST HE STANDS UP FOR WHAT HE BELIEVES IN...IF YOU DON'T LIKE HIM FINE...BUT GIVE THE GUY HIS DUE!!!!
@TwinPeakin Some of us enjoy the knuckle dragging stuff. Do you think AC/DC would have enjoyed such a successful career if they did the Spinal Tap 'hope you enjoy our new direction' BS?? Sorry, but some of us aren't as progressive as you. I am going on 50 and just saw Ted this last Saturday. He still has the same passion and love for Rock and Roll he always did-and it is a GENUINE love of ROCK!! At 62 years old to boot. And judging from his attitude he doesn't care what ANYONE thinks!!
@TwinPeakin A tremendous fan of young 19 yr olds fripp and ted. ted far better. gotten much much better now . saw king crimson last year worst concert in many a year. the two drummmers were incrediblly loud and played the entire concert in unison!! Is this heavy leather? Fripp alsways a joker despite his parson like demeanor. drummers took a brief 'solo' ,a very sofly played duet on the cymbols they were they were first rate;never liked 'DIscipline>> CK zero emotion= zero music.
This is the CADILLAC MAN FROM DETROIT!!!! You should have seen them LIVE at the Grande Ball Room in the good ole Daz. I was so lucky to have meet Ted in Flordia. And Back stage at the Grande. Face 2 face Ted is as real of a person as could even wish to meet. Music he gives 1,ooo% To TED all the way Man!!!!
Tell it like it is jonkman5! Chariotdrvr14 should look up the definition of those big words she is spouting out before she throws them around! Calling Ted Nugent a "fascist"?!?!?! If you know the least bit about either fascism or Nugent you will know they are polar opposites!
ted nugent !! the guy is a frickin maniac !! go ted !! frickin go man go !!! you'll live forever !!! as long as i can play a guitar, you'll frickin live forever !!!! and as long as there are guitar players, you'll forever be the frickin best !!!
I've sick of cretins like chariotdvr14 and their biased views. I'm a rock 'n roll Republican. It takes a lot more brains, guts, and maturity to realize you can love rock and not also automatically toe the Leftist Line. I thought the 60's and 70's were about freedom and revolution. Well, more freedom from government intrusion and lower taxes are a better fit than that "save the whales" shit
I saw Ted in 1967. Changed my life. Guy's all over the stage, a real showman. It was then that I decided to play guitar for the next 48 years. I'm happier than most every one I know..because I did what I WANTED to do. Play guitar. Thanx Ted.
I guess all those sustained notes he played through most of the song don't qualify? It doesn't matter how melodic or tasty he plays...to some people if he does ANYTHING fast, he's just shredding. Musically ignorant.
OF COURSE, I except that you are musicially ignorant, and the NUGE playing a single note no matter what is as tasteless as the bottom of a shoe!!! PASS..............FAIL................glad you like it!!!!
My response? You're a simple internet troll that has nothing better to do than to sit around on a computer and talk shit about things you don't like. Not worth another second of my time. Have a nice, pathetic life.

conspiracies and flaming cant you just be happy that this song is amazing either way despite any possible backstories? the song sounds great guitar playing is amazing (could do without the keyboard) but the song in general between ted nugent and the amboy dukes is AMAZING
Amboy Dukes break up was an inside job! Look at the videos, you can see the squibs going off! Bush refused to get them back together! Join the 1968 truth movement!
I saw Ted in a 700 seater club in Malmö, Sweden last summer, he kicked total ass for nearly 3 hrs. Whether you like his political opinions or not ,go see him live, rock´n´roll guitar doesn`t get any better!!!
Like a fine wine .... Uncle Ted has indeed gotten better with age ..... go see him live and you too will testify! At 61 (this December), he wipes the floor with his so called contemporaries ......
You know gtfoudbs. It is so sad how people move to the next decade and all of a sudden everything that is old sucks? Ted Nugent has influenced many people in the world of guitar playing. I beieve he can hold his own with anyone out there. Even at the age of Sixty! To me it all comes down to jealousy! Ted can jam that big hollow bodied Gibson Byrdland!
I've loved his guitar playing since I bought "Cat Scratch Fever" back when it came out. I've been watching a lot of him lately and he's even better than I thought.
Quite possibly the best pure rock and roll guitar player ever. Not too many players can plug a guitar straight into an amp and sound this good.
The guy is sixty. It is wild to hear him say who his influences were. I think you are right. He plugs in and says " Here it is raw and powerful!" He does not want keyboards in his music, so that is how it goes...:) I think Double Live Gonzo was one of the best live albums ever done.
Dig that my man. I'm 47 yrs. old and have been to alot of concerts through the years. I've seen Ted 4 times, 3 times alone and once with the Damn Yankees and I don't know if I've ever seen any better on a guitar live than Nugent. He rocks the house and shakes the building.
@gtfoudbs who gives a fuck what they say. Ted is one badass on and off the guitar. And considering how long he has been at it i would love 2 c anyone play as long as many of the 60's and 70's guitar Gods have been. Can anyone say Carpals??? lol
@gtfoudbs Couldn't agree more, i'm a pro-musician since 25 years, Ted was a great hero for me in my teens, picked up the old records some years ago sounded even better... have seen him live in Sweden twice the last years he's definitely the most vital of my 70's heroes God bless The Nuge!!!
@gtfoudbs thumbs up man...this motherfucker is AMAZING...and the best part about watching him play is ...hes having a BLAST...he loves what he does..and he shows it...oh yeah..he likes to hunt animals...SO WHAT???
@gtfoudbs Plus, Ted's a good enough guy to come play the Detroit Music Awards with a group of guys who couldn't be any further removed from fame, The Amboy Dukes...basically a one hit wonder who quickly fell into obscurity...
I don't know about you, but I don't see Justin Timberlake heading back to do an NSYNC reunion with those lackeys or David Byrne calling up the Talking Heads for a reunion...Nuge actually cares to take care of his old band mates. Shows character

What ever, lefty not really, I play right handed, and after 6 month I was playing way better then uncle Ted let me tell you, you can always say what you want you dont even know me...
I'm a blues fan and Baby Please Don't Go is one of my favorite, and this version in my opinion sucks, you might not like it but that's it, I ain't no Socialist and thank God I'm not American either, tuning a guitar is not really a standard by wich I would rate a guitar player
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ted Nugent is one of the worst guitar player I heard appart from the Poison guitarist I don't remember his name wathever, This guy lacks talent that's all, allways been this way and always will be. Poor bastard
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Been watching you playing since I was a kid, you should put some soul in there and you should quit alcool and seriously try cannabis, that would give you that little something you lack, other then that you seem to know you pntatonics, that doesn't take 55 years to learn however, putting soul in it is another story, some have it some don't
And hey, it's only an opinion, as you said ''I dont have a clue''
Great job Dukes. You guys brought the house down. The crowd noise through the mics doesn't represent even a quarter of the noise in the theatre when you guys finished.
The sound in the house was better than the board mix. This was still great. Nice to see. Everyone was so humble, and it was nice to see Ted, showing off his old band mates. I wish these guys would tour.
Hey wtw88 what is your problem. It was great to see the original guys again and John Drake did a great job. It's typical of those with NO talent to attempt to sound relevant by cutting up those who have lot more talent than they do. If you saw the original band they all wore these kind of clothes, but, unfortunately you were probably in diapers. Look up early Amboy Dukes and then maybe your pee-brain will understand.
You are 100 % right....John Sauter is a good friend of mine we live in the same town,he is a great guy and GREAT bassist..........I remember when John played with Nugent , it was not for long though ,Nugent was a prick to his band........wow it is a small world !!!!!!!!!!
It is a FACT that Nugent hardly paid his band members shit, while he lived like a fat rat, RAT IS RIGHT,draft dodging child molesting dead beat dad WILL GET HIS IN THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The more I do my fact checking, the more I find out where Nugent got his musical ideas from. I was listening to an old Rolling Stones video a while back and distinctly heard Rot Gut.
Thats the first time I heard this. Although I question whether there is much melody to Stranglehold, the riff is huge. Rob Grange was the bass player during the Stranglehold time period and Sauter didn't join till 4 albums later. Did Sauter jam in the same circles as Nugent in the 1974-75 era?
Not to mention Derek St. Holms has gone on record saying that Ted refused to record the song "Hey Baby" unless Derek gave him 50% writing credit (even though Derek wrote the whole thing). Who here was saying that Ted's such a lovely person? I thought all Ted fans knew he had 'issues'.
If you listen to some of Derek's solo records, you will come to recognize where Nugent picked up a few of his rhythm riffs. Derek, Rob, and Cliff would jam during sound checks waiting for Nugent to show up, and inevitably they would create something interesting. I heard a Derek play a song when he first joined Nugent's band called "Let it Rain".... several years later a tune called "Homebound" was strangely familar to my ears. Imagine that?
A guitar song and everyone slams Ted for playing solo's !! What a bunch of fucking dickhead's !! They sounded cool, and practiced once or twice at most !! Shut the fuck up !!
It was the first song off the first Amboy Dukes album, (pretty much copying Van Morrison and Them) and this was tribute to the Amboy Dukes Night, NOT TED F'Kn Nugent and his Backup Boyz Night. One solo, two maybe, three at the outside, but geez... da ya think he might actually "share" the stagetime? OH NO, not alpha male. But hey, its typical Nugent, ME ME ME... Its cool that the other guys got a little recognition, no doubt. Please dont tell me to shut up, it only encourages me.
Baby Please Dont Go was recorded by Van Morrison with Them before the Amboy Dukes did it. Nugent copied the guitar solo note for note. Sorry if history has a nasty habitat of putting issues in perspective. Cheers.
Hey, I just found out that Ytube has a function where you can click to specific points in time during the video by putting in the minutes and seconds. So, here is the Nuge Fans version of this song. Just click in sequence. As nuge gets to the end of one solo, just click on the next link.
man does ted suck ass. he is not capable of writing good songs anymore so he basically alpha males his way everywhere he goes. what a douchebag. it would do him some good to suffer some sort of ailment where he would have to relearn how to play for the song. total fuckin goon that guy...
Time to sell my rare uncirculated 1968-70 live amboy dukes tapes to show people what they really were like back in the day (looking for a reissue label). This was nice though.
got st louis 68 with john drake even but only 4 songs soundboard. The rest are right after rusty & steve got fired (but still great as a 4 piece) but complete shows.
We'll agree to disagree on this one. I have to points of note however.
1. Obviously we were listening to a soundboard mix which emphasizes instruments that were low on the stage. Hence, Ted's little amp being louder in the soundboard mix somewhat.
2. Ted' was gushing so much about the band members (prior to playing) that I though he was going to drop to his knees and Bl-w them. If that's know 'playing nice' I don't know what is. It was a guitar driven song for Christs sake.
Playing Ted style is not to be confused with 'not listening to the other players'. You can be going nuts and still be melodic, have soul and dynamics. Ted proves that every time he plays.
I beg to differ. If Nugent is so wrapped up in his own amazement over the notes he flurries about, and doesn't listen to the changes the rest of the band is putting down, this is just musical ego stroking, not music. You cannot be melodic if your riffs are not matching up with the chord changes. As for the soundboard mix excuse, I suppose that for the sake of argument, that Nugent had no control over his volume, but he sure had control of the number of times he stole the spotlight with a solo
JustPlainDB, every complaint you bring up has been unsubstantiated. Things like how Ted didn't show respect to the other guys, didn't listen to the changes, was overly upstaging etc, Those characteristics may be true with Ted on any given night, but this tape does not show that at all. Quite the contrary. John Drake had full command of the stage when singing (Ted stayed back), everybody got 'extra solos' compared to the studio version. Also, Teds improvs change from night to night.
Unsubstantiated? Really? Ok, lets substaniate. Nugent: first 72 seconds, then JD 26 secs, Nugent 38 secs, AS 18 secs, Nugent 5 secs, RL 27 secs with Nugent stepping in half way through, Nugent 35 MORE secs, JD 21 secs, Nugent 44 secs, JD 26 secs, Nugent 6 secs.
I count 7 Nugent spot lights, 3 for John Drake, 1 for Andy Solomon, 1for Rick Lober, and none for Bill White. And please don't lecture me about the studio version as Nugent left out the Jimi Hendrix quote from the original cut.
Oh, I completely forgot about Steve Farmer... geez.. my bad. And you are right, Ted's improv changes from night to night... right. You are a musician, you never play the same exact improv night for night either, I'll bet. Its nothing special to wank, we all can wank, its mindless noodling. Don't try to make Nugent out as some other worldly guitar player. Jeff Beck is other worldly, David Lindley and Ry Cooder, and even David Grissom. Ted reached his zenith in 1976 and stayed there.
Again, if you know you don't like Ted or his playing. Just admit it and shut the F-ck up already.
Ted is a virtuoso and his improves are melodic and soulful. I hear musician envy from you big time..Or, you aren't a rocker or both. Jeff Beck has been a snoozefest since 1976. A pleasant snoozefest, but still a snoozefest.
I actually enjoy some of Nugent's "back in the day" stuff. Virtuoso is such over-worked phrase, and it does not apply to Nugent. I can see from your opinion of Jeff Beck that you react better to Nugent's more visceral approach than the melodic or genius players. If you think Beck is a snoozefest, you really dont know that much about what it takes to play a guitar like he does. Oh, and your insult that I am not a rocker hurts, it really does. I thought we coulda been friends.
We both know the song was meant to be a guitar showcase. Now you are just showing yourself to be an ass. I think you are expressing 4 decades of disdain for Ted and projecting characteristics to the clip that don't exist. Maybe there's a pill for that bro. I hope you get better.
Hey Jake, dont get snippy, you were the one who said there was no substaniation. I substaniated on your request. Just trying to be accomodating for ya. Actually, its only a decade of disdain. Before that, I saw Nugent like you do. Then I got to know him personally. It shattered any myths for me that you might still believe. Calling me names or suggesting I need a pill is so beyond you.
Can you recommend a few of the more rocking Little Feat CDs? I want to download them and catch up on what I've been missing. I wont expect it be rock like Amboy Dukes. I'll try to go with it's vibe and grove to it.
..wrong, because he is very anti-american and IS a parasite!

I've sick of cretins like chariotdvr14 and their biased views. I'm a rock 'n roll Republican. It takes a lot more brains, guts, and maturity to realize you can love rock and not also automatically toe the Leftist Line. I thought the 60's and 70's were about freedom and revolution. Well, more freedom from government intrusion and lower taxes are a better fit than that "save the whales" shit

You know gtfoudbs. It is so sad how people move to the next decade and all of a sudden everything that is old sucks? Ted Nugent has influenced many people in the world of guitar playing.

DOGLUV007 2 years ago 7
I've loved his guitar playing since I bought "Cat Scratch Fever" back when it came out. I've been watching a lot of him lately and he's even better than I thought.
Quite possibly the best pure rock and roll guitar player ever. Not too many players can plug a guitar straight into an amp and sound this good.
gtfoudbs 2 years ago 7
The guy is sixty. It is wild to hear him say who his influences were. I think you are right. He plugs in and says " Here it is raw and powerful!" He does not want keyboards in his music, so that is how it goes...:) I think Double Live Gonzo was one of the best live albums ever done.
DOGLUV007 2 years ago 6
Dig that my man. I'm 47 yrs. old and have been to alot of concerts through the years. I've seen Ted 4 times, 3 times alone and once with the Damn Yankees and I don't know if I've ever seen any better on a guitar live than Nugent. He rocks the house and shakes the building.

Great job Dukes. You guys brought the house down. The crowd noise through the mics doesn't represent even a quarter of the noise in the theatre when you guys finished.
The sound in the house was better than the board mix. This was still great. Nice to see. Everyone was so humble, and it was nice to see Ted, showing off his old band mates. I wish these guys would tour.
robbourassaguitarist 2 years ago 6
Hey wtw88 what is your problem. It was great to see the original guys again and John Drake did a great job. It's typical of those with NO talent to attempt to sound relevant by cutting up those who have lot more talent than they do. If you saw the original band they all wore these kind of clothes, but, unfortunately you were probably in diapers. Look up early Amboy Dukes and then maybe your pee-brain will understand.

The more I do my fact checking, the more I find out where Nugent got his musical ideas from. I was listening to an old Rolling Stones video a while back and distinctly heard Rot Gut.
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
Thats the first time I heard this. Although I question whether there is much melody to Stranglehold, the riff is huge. Rob Grange was the bass player during the Stranglehold time period and Sauter didn't join till 4 albums later. Did Sauter jam in the same circles as Nugent in the 1974-75 era?
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
Not to mention Derek St. Holms has gone on record saying that Ted refused to record the song "Hey Baby" unless Derek gave him 50% writing credit (even though Derek wrote the whole thing). Who here was saying that Ted's such a lovely person? I thought all Ted fans knew he had 'issues'.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
If you listen to some of Derek's solo records, you will come to recognize where Nugent picked up a few of his rhythm riffs. Derek, Rob, and Cliff would jam during sound checks waiting for Nugent to show up, and inevitably they would create something interesting. I heard a Derek play a song when he first joined Nugent's band called "Let it Rain".... several years later a tune called "Homebound" was strangely familar to my ears. Imagine that?

It was the first song off the first Amboy Dukes album, (pretty much copying Van Morrison and Them) and this was tribute to the Amboy Dukes Night, NOT TED F'Kn Nugent and his Backup Boyz Night. One solo, two maybe, three at the outside, but geez... da ya think he might actually "share" the stagetime? OH NO, not alpha male. But hey, its typical Nugent, ME ME ME... Its cool that the other guys got a little recognition, no doubt. Please dont tell me to shut up, it only encourages me.

chaoswarriorman 2 years ago
We'll agree to disagree on this one. I have to points of note however.
1. Obviously we were listening to a soundboard mix which emphasizes instruments that were low on the stage. Hence, Ted's little amp being louder in the soundboard mix somewhat.
2. Ted' was gushing so much about the band members (prior to playing) that I though he was going to drop to his knees and Bl-w them. If that's know 'playing nice' I don't know what is. It was a guitar driven song for Christs sake.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
Playing Ted style is not to be confused with 'not listening to the other players'. You can be going nuts and still be melodic, have soul and dynamics. Ted proves that every time he plays.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
I beg to differ. If Nugent is so wrapped up in his own amazement over the notes he flurries about, and doesn't listen to the changes the rest of the band is putting down, this is just musical ego stroking, not music. You cannot be melodic if your riffs are not matching up with the chord changes. As for the soundboard mix excuse, I suppose that for the sake of argument, that Nugent had no control over his volume, but he sure had control of the number of times he stole the spotlight with a solo
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
JustPlainDB, every complaint you bring up has been unsubstantiated. Things like how Ted didn't show respect to the other guys, didn't listen to the changes, was overly upstaging etc, Those characteristics may be true with Ted on any given night, but this tape does not show that at all. Quite the contrary. John Drake had full command of the stage when singing (Ted stayed back), everybody got 'extra solos' compared to the studio version. Also, Teds improvs change from night to night.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
Unsubstantiated? Really? Ok, lets substaniate. Nugent: first 72 seconds, then JD 26 secs, Nugent 38 secs, AS 18 secs, Nugent 5 secs, RL 27 secs with Nugent stepping in half way through, Nugent 35 MORE secs, JD 21 secs, Nugent 44 secs, JD 26 secs, Nugent 6 secs.
I count 7 Nugent spot lights, 3 for John Drake, 1 for Andy Solomon, 1for Rick Lober, and none for Bill White. And please don't lecture me about the studio version as Nugent left out the Jimi Hendrix quote from the original cut.
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
Oh, I completely forgot about Steve Farmer... geez.. my bad. And you are right, Ted's improv changes from night to night... right. You are a musician, you never play the same exact improv night for night either, I'll bet. Its nothing special to wank, we all can wank, its mindless noodling. Don't try to make Nugent out as some other worldly guitar player. Jeff Beck is other worldly, David Lindley and Ry Cooder, and even David Grissom. Ted reached his zenith in 1976 and stayed there.
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
Again, if you know you don't like Ted or his playing. Just admit it and shut the F-ck up already.
Ted is a virtuoso and his improves are melodic and soulful. I hear musician envy from you big time..Or, you aren't a rocker or both. Jeff Beck has been a snoozefest since 1976. A pleasant snoozefest, but still a snoozefest.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
I actually enjoy some of Nugent's "back in the day" stuff. Virtuoso is such over-worked phrase, and it does not apply to Nugent. I can see from your opinion of Jeff Beck that you react better to Nugent's more visceral approach than the melodic or genius players. If you think Beck is a snoozefest, you really dont know that much about what it takes to play a guitar like he does. Oh, and your insult that I am not a rocker hurts, it really does. I thought we coulda been friends.
JustPlainDB 2 years ago
We both know the song was meant to be a guitar showcase. Now you are just showing yourself to be an ass. I think you are expressing 4 decades of disdain for Ted and projecting characteristics to the clip that don't exist. Maybe there's a pill for that bro. I hope you get better.
JakeZoltar 2 years ago
Hey Jake, dont get snippy, you were the one who said there was no substaniation. I substaniated on your request. Just trying to be accomodating for ya. Actually, its only a decade of disdain. Before that, I saw Nugent like you do. Then I got to know him personally. It shattered any myths for me that you might still believe. Calling me names or suggesting I need a pill is so beyond you.
