Ted Nugent is one of the building blocks of rock as we learned it and still understand it today. His band paved the way for tons of double entendre and rather risque lyrics to accessorize hard, driving, and loud music underneath.
The band was nothing short of amazing in the 70s when they broke through with "Cat Scratch Fever" and took the world by storm. The screaming, insisting vocals and the pulsing beat was a perfect lure for an audience starved for an abrasive, coarse sound. Ted Nugent was there, and he brought it with determination and conviction.I had a chance to catch Ted Nugent on a recent trip to Lake Buena Vista which is right near Orlando.
My husband and I decided we'd give it a shot, and if it sucked we would head on out. We were happily surprised by not only the amount of people attending the concert but the variation in age, race, and all walks of life. An audience like that gives a band like Ted Nugent a future.
They took the stage, and between some songs told stories that related to the tune they were about to play or just had played. The whole performance felt very positive and very intimate.
