DanelectroGod Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Ted Nugent is such an arse. Not sure when this was from from but ran across it on youtube..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qc0hjiBj7pA...feature=related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheZeppyWanderer Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 its like a mosquito criticising a blue whale. Nugent - have a listen to yourself, take a long hard look in the mirror, and with any luck you will see why YOU will never be spoken about, thought of , or remembered in a tiny fraction of the awe which is associated with the ONE AND ONLY Jimmy Page.

SunChild Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Geez, man. Like Nugent has never been high? Difference is, it's possible to get sober, but Nugent will always be an asshole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy's A Legend Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 He's just jealous of Jimmy's talents as a guitarist <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMcLov1n Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) I thought it was funny. :/ What he said pales in comparison to some of the shit Robert talks about other people. Edited April 16, 2008 by MisterMcLov1n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep41 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 it sounds like he is making fun of Page's drug use in the 80s more so than he is making fun of Page himself, let alone Page's playing. From what I've heard about Page, his description might not be too far off! But he didnt need to attack the guy and take it that far. Jealousy does play a role here. Nugent will bad mouth any rock and roller who took drugs and he loves to brag about the fact that he was always sober. Who really cares about him though, the guy has like one or two (at most) memorable licks he's ever played compated to Page's thousands.

Knebby Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Plus there's worse things you can do than drink and take drugs. I do wish those things had had no adverse effect on Jimmy though. So I'll kind of agree with him there. ( With a million get-out clauses.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Geez, man. Like Nugent has never been high? I can tell you Ted has always maintained he never used drugs. Having worked for him in the past, I do believe him. I can also add he's never held Jimmy Page in high regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy's A Legend Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 it sounds like he is making fun of Page's drug use in the 80s well, in some way,i know that drugs are bad and all, but in some way you can't have a go at page because weren't those the times when everyone was into drugs............or am i a complete idot and don't know the time line to life.

Pb Derigable Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Ted Nugent played at my town summer festival. It's only a town of 12,000, but its one of the bigger festival in the Chicago land. He put on a great show, but only because he's Ted Nugent. He played really well, but it was his "plantations" that made it a great show. Not many people from that era holds either page or zep in high regard. Ted does like the little girls a bit too much, but it's not something that jimmy couldn't be accused of with Lori Maddox.

eternal light Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) Ted Nugent is an Aries, and Jimmy Page is a Capricorn; Aries and Capricorn frequently act as obstacles to one another. Jimmy is better off with the Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo natives; he's an earth sign kind of guy. On the other hand, the Real Don Steele was an Aries, and he always had nice things to say about the British Invasion. I don't remember him saying anything mean about the Yardbirds or Jimmy Page.

I can also add he's never held Jimmy Page in high regard. He once said " I can't believe that smoking, drugs or alcohol are more powerful than p*ssy" in a conversation where he was explaining why he never drank or took drugs.

NickZepp Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) I'm not really that pissed off because that's probably pretty accurate about how Page was in the 70s and 80s. Even in the 90s he was still pretty bad at times. And Nugent has ever done drugs. So yeah he's never been high. Also it seems like this is in a different context. It's about a minute and a half of an interview that may have been making fun of rocker's drug uses or something. Nugent seemed to respect Zeppelin's music from what little I saw of the Rock Band thing he did on VH1.

Well it's obvious to me you never been in a duck blind with Ted. Ted is a pretty cool cat, probably more personal, but i think he does put on a small act. Jimmy is just smart, funny guy, but a bad jimmy is still a bad jimmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall someone in that group was complaining that what they were working on sounded too Zeppelin-y. I don't remember who it was, but I about fell over.

I'm glad Don Steele didn't talk like that; he was nice, and he nearly always had an attractive young woman by his side, however ditzy she might have been. I remember a cool-looking one with long, black hair who was probably a model, plus she wore really hot make-up and hip clothes, and she smiled a lot and looked really happy.

Seriously, Ted can be funny, but he doesn't have the ultimate-cool-rock-star vibe that Pagey has in spades. How many people do? Ted ain't sexy, Pagey is.
