or, more accurately, not only in the past. classic rock listeners do and that's what he is. Classic heavy rock. Compared to modern metal, Terrible Ted is too soft.



And wait - where are these heavy metal stations? I'd love to hear a heavy metal station not on satellite radio. Dallas had one back in the early 80s and my local rock station has a few hours a week dedicated to metal but they inevitably fail as we are notoriously cheap and unattractive to advertisers. lol

And I have never heard Ted Nugent on them. But he's on plain old classic rock all the time.


I saw him open for Aerosmith once - he ain't all that. Then again, neither was Aerosmith when I saw them.
