1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:01,720
Speaker 1: The Michael Barry Joe.

2
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 2: You know him as the MotorCity mad Man. I know

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 2: him as Uncle Ted, one of our favorite guests of

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 2: all time. Heck, one of our favorite people of all time.

5
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 2: Leave the music, the hunting, the cooking, the politics, just

6
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 2: an inspiration in life. Ted Nugent, Welcome to the program, you.

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: Know, Mike. I feel welcome and from a favorite people

8
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,159
Speaker 1: to another favorite people. I'm talking to you from a

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: beautiful monsoon in Waco, Texas. So happy twenty twenty five

10
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: to you, my friend.

11
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 2: No got we needed it though, didn't we?

12
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 3: Oh?

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: I love the rain. I love Mother Nature even when

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: she gives me the middle finger. I love storms until

15
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: the damage begins. But yeah, I've got a beautiful ranch

16
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: here in Texas and the vegetation the range is lush

17
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: and productive. The wildlife are celebrating. They're growing many new

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: backstraps for the fall harvest. So I'm a happy, happy

19
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: rock and roller.

20
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: Well, it's always a blast to have you on because

21
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 2: you bring such a message hope, inspiration, dedication, commitment, motivation.

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 2: I think happiness is a choice that we make, and

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: more than happen is contentment, fulfillment, purpose and by Golly

24
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: you found yours brother.

25
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: Well and Michael backyt Shall. I mean, I'm addicted to

26
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: truth logic and common sense. Not my truth logic and

27
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: common sense, but the evidence drench truth logic and common

28
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: sense that you represent so eloquently, so beautifully and with

29
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: a crowbar when necessary. But I listened to Michael Berry

30
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: Radio and you represent the heartbeat, the spirit, the attitude,

31
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: the energy, the hope, the dreams. I mean, I know

32
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: this gets kind of mushy right now.

33
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: No, not at all.

34
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: We are coming out of.

35
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: Enough about you, more about me.

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: We are coming well. We're coming out of a very

37
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: heartbreaking toilet flush by the Deep State Uncle Sam, Joe

38
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: Biden gang, and there is unbelievable hope right now. I'll

39
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: be seventy seven, and I've never been more hopeful. I've

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: never been more happy with the direction of our country.

41
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: And plus I just had lunch with a bunch of

42
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: hard work in fellow Texas here and the spirit and

43
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: the work, ethic, godfamily country is now the battle cry

44
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: that as ubiquitous across the land, and my music represents that.

45
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: You and I talking about it represents that. So once again,

46
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: thank you for having me on.

47
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 2: Let's do something we don't do enough of them. We'll

48
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: get back to politics and culture and life and cooking

49
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: and hunting. Let's talk about your music. The fiftieth anniversary

50
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: of Stranglehold. It's hard to believe. I don't know if

51
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 2: it's hard for you to believe. It's hard to believe

52
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: fifty years and I know you've got some very exciting

53
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: things for fans planned out for that. Let's discuss that.

54
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: Well, Am, We've talked about this before, that my music

55
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: has power and authority because of the incredible musicians that

56
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: have been at my side for the last sixty five years.

57
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: And we recorded Stranglehold in nineteen seventy five with Rob

58
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: Grange and Cliff Davis and Derek Saint Holmes, my producers,

59
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 1: Tom Worman and engineer Tony Reality. Everybody just immersed themselves

60
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 1: into the spirit, the sound, the drum tones, the guitar tones,

61
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: the bass tones, the lyric content, the piss and the vinegar,

62
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: the energy of that song. And people have embraced the

63
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: song Stranglehold fifty years and onward, especially Michael, the Navy

64
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: Seals that call me, the Army Rangers, the Green Beret

65
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: Delta Force that used that song during their training end

66
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: when they're putting their life on the line. And I

67
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: can't imagine a testimonial that gives a guy more confidence

68
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: and happiness than a piece of music represents that to

69
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: those superhuman beings. So yeah, fifty years of straggling. And

70
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: by the way, I played it for a buddy of

71
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: mine and my man Cave Cuckoo's Nest arsenal of Democracy

72
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: this morning, and the hairs on my arm stood up

73
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: fully erect because I still love the spirit of that song.

74
00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: Well, it is timeless, it is truly timeless. I don't

75
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: know that we've ever done this. Let's talk about where

76
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: that song came from, because I believe that art floats

77
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: in the ether and you just grab hold of it

78
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: for a moment. But what was going on with you?

79
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: How did you first hear it? Were you noodling on

80
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: the guitar or did you hear it completely? Tell me

81
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 2: about that.

82
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: Well, I'm always playing. I played my guitar and shoot

83
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: my bow and trained with my firearms literally, Michael, every day.

84
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: It's just it's stuff that I have a passion about.

85
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 1: They all play a pragmatic and inspirational purpose in my life.

86
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: But in my youth. I was always playing Chuck Berry

87
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: and Bo Diddley and Little Richard and Motown funk Brothers,

88
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: and the right hand on my guitar developed a percussiveness,

89
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 1: a rhythmical kind of a nugent MotorCity version of Bo

90
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: Diddley's chuck a chuck A chucka. And just one day

91
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: I was tuning my guitar and that happened. That move happened,

92
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 1: and there was really nothing I could do about it.

93
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: It had a heartbeat of its own, and then the

94
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 1: lyrics just flowed. The lyrics are defiance against the music

95
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: industry that turned me down for all those years because

96
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: long guitar solos don't make it anymore. We need some

97
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: pop music and disco's coming in. And I said, yeah,

98
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: well listen to this song, kids. So the song is

99
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: one of defiance against an industry that was losing its

100
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: touch with the original black influences of soul music and

101
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: rhythm and blues inspired rock and roll. So like this morning, Michael,

102
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: this morning, I was playing a Gibson Birdland through a

103
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: fender to an app and I'm telling you all these

104
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: new variations kind of a bastardized honky tonk meets boogie woogie,

105
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: and there's always new topography to explore on the guitar neck.

106
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: And because I have such a passion and a dedication

107
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: to trying to be Chuck Berry when I grow up,

108
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: that all these new lick patterns happen. It happens all

109
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: the time.

110
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 2: You know, you have talked a lot over the years

111
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 2: in our conversations about Chuck Berry, and I think a

112
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: lot of young folks to say, will have no idea

113
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: how big Chuck Berry was and also how influential Chuck

114
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: Berry was. Why is that for you?

115
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: Well, I think I've summarized it numerous times in interviews,

116
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: and the facts remain that there's not a piece of music. Now.

117
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: It is a bold, expansive statement, which I'm pretty good at,

118
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: but there isn't a piece of music, Michael Berry, that

119
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: you really get a kick out of and want to

120
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: turn up when it comes on the radio and makes

121
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: your truck go faster that doesn't have an essence of

122
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: what Chuck Berry created cadence wise, rhythmically, upbeat, spirit wise, cocky,

123
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: irreverent fun. There is not a powerful piece of music

124
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: in anyone's life. And I'd be glad to debate this

125
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: for anybody that doesn't have a direct inspiration from Chuck

126
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: Berry's case, I don't care if it's country, I don't

127
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: care if it's blues. I don't care if it's rock

128
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: and roll. Even a lot of pop music they've got

129
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: that Chuck Berry cadence that when you listen to Johnny

130
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: be Good or Carol or roll Over Beethoven or Sweet Sixteen,

131
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: you listen to those original Chuck Berry songs, and it's

132
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: a parent that all moving, authoritative music comes from that genius.

133
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: And Michael I played bass guitar with Chuck Berry, which

134
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: is why I am like I am today. I promise you.

135
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: Well, you know your life experiences. Of course they didn't

136
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 2: happen by chance. You made them happen. You made your experience. Oh,

137
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: I'm up against prank hold on this moment. Uncle Ted

146
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: our guest, and normally over the years and it's been

147
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: many that he comes on the show, we talk about politics,

148
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: we talk about culture, We talk about who he's pissed

149
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: off lately, who he he what changes he wants or

150

Speaker 2: and faith and these important things. But today is a

152
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 2: treat for me because I figure he's tired of talking

153
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 2: about music all the time and there's much more to

154
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 2: him than that. But today we're getting to talk about

155
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 2: the music, and that's a treat because I don't normally

156
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: get to uncle Ted. You have something exciting going on

157

Speaker 2: at the nuge Vault, which is nugevault dot com. Talk

158
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 2: about that.

159
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: Please well again, Michael, thanks bro letting me share my

160
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: passions and my love of music and the American dream

161
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: with you. I'm just such a lucky guy with all

162
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: these incredible dedication musicians at my side. In twenty twenty five,

163
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: with John Coots on drums and Jason Hartless and Johnny

164
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: Big on bass were playing Kenny Storr in Brenham Dex's

165
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: next weekend, and we've been doing these speakes. He's around

166
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,119
Speaker 1: the state, and I'm telling you, talking about defying gravity.

167
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: I am having more guitar music fun in twenty twenty

168
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: five doing these gigs around my home state of Texas

169
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: than I ever have. In fact, I will be doing

170
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: my seven thousandth concert. And what happened during rehearsals in

171
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: the barn and Michigan is my drummer Jason Hartless saw

172
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: all these vats and all these boxes piled sky high

173
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: around my trucks and my deer blinds, and he said,

174
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: what's all that stuff? And I go, oh, those are

175
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: old tapes of rehearsals and jam sessions and recording sessions.

176
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 1: He started digging, Michael. He has unearthed the jam sessions

177
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: and the songwriting sessions, and the outtakes and the demos

178
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: and the unfinished tapes of all the recordings, thousands of

179
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: and it's just fascinating history of not just Ted Nugent

180
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: rock and roll, but the origins of rock and roll,

181
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: from the founding fathers that Chuck Berry's and the Motown

182
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: Funk Brothers and now at Nuge Vault. It's fascinating a

183
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: place called nuge vault dot com. We've got these subscribers

184
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 1: that are just doing double backflips because of the outtakes

185
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: and the demos and the jam sessions and a lot

186
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: of my very fun interviews like I do with Michael Berry.

187
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: But all of this is available at nugevault dot com

188
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: and people are just getting having a riot with it,

189
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: and so am I because it's really rekindling a lot

190
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: of the memories of just unbelievable moments where these songs happened,

191
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: and these jam sessions created these new songs, and these

192
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: amazing musicians would collaborate with ideas. So it's nuge vault

193
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 1: dot com and we'll be exposing a lot of that

194
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: on a bunch of gigs here in Texas and then

195
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: up in Michigan in August.

196
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 2: You know, and I know that special for you. You're a

197
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 2: Texan now, through and through, but I know Michigan holds

198
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: a special place in your heart. I had a Sunday

199
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 2: school teacher say to me twenty five years ago, if

200
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: you want to know who you said to all of

201
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 2: us in the class, We want to know who you're

202
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: going to be five years from now. Look at your

203
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: closest friends, because they're going to pick you up or

204
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 2: they're going to drop you down. They're going to take

205
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: you with them where they're going. That's where you're headed.

206
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 2: And it's interesting. I talk to a lot of musicians.

207
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 2: I'm passionate about music. I can't make music, but somebody

208
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: has to consume it, right, And I'm really passionate about

209
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 2: how the art is made and what it means to

210
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: people and these sorts of things. And you talk about collaboration.

211
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 2: Every time you and I talk and I ask you

212
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 2: a question about Ted Nugent and what Ted Nugent has done,

213
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: you always go to a Chuck Berry comes up a lot.

214
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 2: You always go to the influences and the collaboration. And

215
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 2: I think that's a takeaway whatever you're in. If you're

216
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 2: a financial advisor, a plant worker, people you surround yourself

217
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 2: with and bounce off of are gonna make you better

218
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: or worse. And I hear that from you every time

219
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 2: I talk to you, how playing with other people and

220
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 2: their influences and those collaborations is a thrill for you

221
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:15,719
Speaker 2: and has made you who you are. And I think

222
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 2: that's important.

223
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything more important. My dad used

224
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: to say as I was growing up, tell me who

225
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: you hang with, and I'll tell you who you are. Now.

226
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: I dismiss that in my stupidity of youth, but it

227
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: turned out to be true. And I have an inner circle,

228
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: quite an expansive inner circle, Michael, which, by the way,

229
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: you're a member of a good people of the spirit,

230
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 1: good will and decency, work, ethic, God, family, country. Still

231
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: conduct our lives based on the Constitution, the build rights

232
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: and decoration of independence and commandments, the Golden Rule, law

233
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: and order, good over evil, self defense, freedom of speech, etc. Etc.

234
00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: And those are the people that I have accumulated in

235
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,599
Speaker 1: my family, my friends, my band, my crew, my management,

236
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: my hunting buddies. I have a hunting operation called Sunrise Safaris,

237
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: and Michael, I share campfires with hundreds and hundreds of

238
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: families every year. And that's why I salute you, because

239
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: when you talk, you talk just like those families around

240
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: the campfire that put their heart and soul into being

241
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: the best that you can be. And when you put

242
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: your heart and soul into being the best that you

243
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: can be as a musician, great music happens. So I've

244
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: always surrounded myself with the best rhythm section, the best singers,

245
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 1: the best creators, and you hear that in the music.

246
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: The performance that these guys put into my compositions is

247
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: every artist's dream because there's a passion. And by the way,

248
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: we keep mentioning Chuck Berry. Everybody in all of my

249
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: bands and all of my crew, everybody references Chuck Berry.

250
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: So that cadence, that spirit, that energy, that uppiness, that defiance,

251
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: there's a lot of defiance in that music, and that's

252
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: what inspires us. And even though we're old men now, Michael,

253
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: when we get in the barn and start jamming, it's

254
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: like a bunch of kids. It's like a bunch of

255
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: kids that want to play Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley

256
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: and play motown hits. In fact, we do. That's how

257
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: all of our rehearsals start with those classic songs. And

258
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: once you start hitting those rhythms and those movements, all

259
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it can become your own when you

260
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: create your own chord patterns, your own melodies, your own lyrics,

261
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: and your own arrangements. And that's attributed to these unbelievable

262
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: musicians that are at my side. Again. John kutz On

263
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: drums out of Waco, Texas, Jason Hartless on drums out

264
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: of Nashville, Johnny Big out of Waco here on bass

265
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: and vocals. I hope you can come to Brenham on Saturday,

266
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: the thirty first of May. The music has never been

267
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: more tight. James Brown would hire us as his band.

268
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: We're so tight and so energetic. So these are the

269
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: good old days of my music. I'm telling you, you know.

270
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: The Kinney Store is where he's going to be by

271
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 2: the Way, which is a great, great venue owned by

272
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 2: two cops, and they're fantastic people. They have a very

273
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: loyal audience there and get there early. The food is

274
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: actually amazing. Ted Nugent is our guest. You know, you

275
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: inspire me. You talk about your age and in the

276
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: number of years you've done this. Two of the people

277
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: I admire the most in the world for what they

278
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 2: do and their art and their craft Hank Williams Junior

279
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: and Dan Pastorini, both of whom turned seventy six on

280
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: Tuesday of this week. I got to tell you, I

281
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 2: bet when you were early in your career, nobody would

282
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: have said that Ted Nugent would be an inspiration for

283
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: longevity and happiness. But by golly, you have been. And

284
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 2: that's that's in and of itself incredible.

285
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: I'm on a mission from God, Michael. Yeah. Now, it's

286
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: about It's about work ethic. It's about dedication to providing

287
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: for your family and being in the asset column, being

288
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: willing to make risks and sacrifices so that you're again

289
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: there's only two columns. There's the asset column and there's

290
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: a liability column. And my dad, disciplined slash, forced us

291
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: into being in the asset column. The productive members of

292
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: our family, our neighborhood, our community, our great nations, and

293
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 1: as a sportsman, as a hunter and a trapper and

294
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: a fisherman, an asset to the good earth that provides

295
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: us quality of life. So can you hold mysterious man?

296
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: Can you hold it?

297
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: This moment?

298
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,240

Speaker 2: your front row seat to submerge yourself in rock and

302
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:56,280

304
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: iconic rock album. Al it's an anthem album. Sorry, I

305
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 2: lost my train of thought, stranglehold. He's got a speakeasy

00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: got a blank kicker. I'm not allowed to say it,

309
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: but it rhymes with pitt kicker. Speakeasy rockouts in Michigan

00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 2: and Texas this spring and summer. Uncle Ted played for

311
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 2: us at the RCC, and I will tell you a

312
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 2: couple of takeaways I have from that, folks. Number one

313
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: is people love uncle Ted. We sold out just like that.

314
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 2: We sold out fast. Number two is we have never

315
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 2: needed so much sound. It was an entire eighteen wheeler

316
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 2: of speakers that came in. It was insane, I mean insane.

317
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 2: Number three, this guy's been doing this for more years

318
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 2: than I've been alive. And he does not mail it in.

319
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 2: You pay good money and he gives you everything he's

320
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: got on stage and before and after, and as a

321
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 2: venue owner, that mattered more to me than anything else.

322
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 2: And I don't know if I've ever thanked you for that,

323
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 2: but that was a hell of a night. Brother.

324
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: Every night, Thank you for that, Michael, And you're right.

325
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: There is an energy level that the real music lovers

326
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: bring to me, and the inspiration from the audience is

327
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: actually dangerous. I mean, I sweat so much on stage.

328
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: We have ducks on the limit to come in because

329
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: they expect to flush a mallard from my puddle of

330
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: sweat on stage. Yes, there's a there's a James Brown

331
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: work ethic that we deliver every night. And I tell

332
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: my band before we go on, tonight is the most

333
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: important concert of our life. And we say that every night,

334
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: because every night is the most important concert of our life.

335
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: We want to deliver the beast, the grind, the groove,

336
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: the fun and the spirit, the piss and the vinegar,

337
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: the middle finger against all things evil, which I weave

338
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: into the wonderful, entertaining evening. But yeah, well, thank you

339
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: for that, because the people do rave about our shows.

340
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: Because I've I'm out of control. I mean, I get

341
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: on stage. I can't wait to get on stage and

342
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: play these songs. As a guitar player, I just happen

343
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: to have created some of the most exciting and fun

344
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: guitar leaks to ever play. So I'm still like a

345
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: crazy kid back in Detroit nineteen fifty nine. When I

346
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: get ready to perform every night, and I think the

347
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: people have noticed that. They celebrate that, and their reciprocity

348
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 1: from audience to stage is like a tsunami of energy.

349
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: So once again, how lucky can I be?

350
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 4: All Right?

351
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 2: I'm going to ask you a series of questions, but

352
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 2: I'm not going to let ted Nugent be ted nugent.

353
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 2: I just want you to give the shortest, most succinct

354
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 2: answer you can and without giving it much thought, just

355
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:49,640
Speaker 2: whatever pops in your brain.

356
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,239
Speaker 1: Okay, you got it.

357
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 2: You're going to walk out right now and pick up

358
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 2: a bow and shoot it. It's the bow that's going

359
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 2: to allow you to be most accurate. What is.

360
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: I'm shooting a new Matthew's Lift lightweight forty eight pound draw.

361
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: The mystical flight of the arrow has never been more

362
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,199
Speaker 1: accurate with this technology. So that's the bow of my

363
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: choice these days?

364
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 2: Is there an arrow of choice? I don't know a

365
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 2: lot about archery. You know.

366
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: I'm shooting some gold tip arrows. They've been making the

367
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: ten Neugent Zebra gold tip arrow for years. But I'm

368
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: also experimenting with a bunch of other arrows. That state

369
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: of archery and marksmanship, firearms and optics and AMMO is

370
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: at an all time high. So it's about what you're

371
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 1: most comfortable with, what feels good to you, And it

372
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: is important that that bow or that gun feels right,

373
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: and that's the one you should shoot, all right?

374
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 2: Not your favorite. But if I ask you right now

375
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 2: to lay your hands and it might be on your hip,

376
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 2: might be in your pocket, it might be on the

377
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 2: table next to you, on the nearest handgun, what would

378
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 2: it be?

379
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: It's the same block model twenty ten millimeters this on

380
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: my right hip, along with four magazines on my left hip.

381
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: Every day, everywhere, once Ted Nugent shows up, it is

382
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 1: no longer a gun free zone. I probably.

383
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 2: All right? What about what knife you could lay your

384
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: hands on the fastest? Right now?

385
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 1: I've got my old Victorianox pocket knife in my left pocket,

386
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 1: and I got a brand new steel Force a folding

387
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: knife on my right pocket, and I have a Leatherman

388
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: tool on my left hip. I'm out like a hardware store.

389
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 2: What meat did you most enjoy that you ate at

390
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 2: home that you killed within the last week.

391
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: A beautiful sow pig right here on the North Boski

392
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: River with my bone arrow and she was just about

393
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 1: seventy five eighty pounds and it was the most delicious

394
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: max strap with garlic and pepper and honey. I swear

395
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: to God, it's the meat of the gods.

396
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 2: Now, will you make chops and bacon and all that

397
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 2: out of her?

398
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,959
Speaker 1: Absolutely? Yeah, we use it all man, Good for you.

399
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 2: What do they say that the ruder to the tutor,

400
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 2: that's the way to do it, especially with it.

401
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's called the conservation, the wise use of

402
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: a natural resource. And I always say the cuter, the cruter,

403
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 1: the sweeter the meat.

404
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: Now is that a Is that a culinary reference?

405
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 1: I think it is. That's why I like lamb chops

406
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: so much.

407
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 2: I do too. I like the lamb lollipops. I don't

408
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 2: know why that is, but it's a yes.

409
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: With the bone, you gotta have the ball, right, It's.

410
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 2: Just like it's it's a built in handle, you know,

411
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 2: it's like a toothbrush you can eat. I absolutely, absolutely

412
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 2: love it. All right. Tell me a movie that you

413
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 2: have watched in the last month. It may not be

414
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 2: the all time greatest or you're what you want to

415
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 2: be defined by that you really enjoyed.

416
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: Man on Fire with Denzel Washington. I love. I'm a

417
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: big fan of Revenge.

418
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 2: Yes, me too, Vindication very good. Okay, tell me somebody

419
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 2: that you are good friends with a select from whatever

420
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 2: field that people would be surprised you're friends with because

421
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 2: y'all may not share the same political views.

422
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 1: Well, there's a gentleman who has a band called Rage

423
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 1: Against the Machine. His name is Tom Morello, and he

424
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: plays guitar and occasion with Bruce Springsteen and Bruce Springsteen

425
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: even though he had his foot in his mouth more

426
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: often than necessary. Bruce and Tom and I were all

427
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: raised on Chuck Berry and Mitch Ryder music, so I

428
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: will overlook the stupid politics and just jam on killer music.

429
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: How's that.

430
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 2: I love it, and I can appreciate that the art

431
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 2: at that moment takes precedence. You know, it's really too

432
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 2: bad because Springsteen has written some really good stuff, and

433
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 2: I love his hard scrabble story and I love his

434
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 2: truth in his his how he stayed true to New

435
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 2: Jersey in the gritty, you know, New Jersey streets. But

436
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 2: my goodness, his mind is warped. It's absolutely warped. When's

437
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,399
Speaker 2: the last time you spoke to President Trump. I know

438
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 2: he adores you.

439
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 1: Just a couple of months ago.

440
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 3: I'm congratulating him, and I'm bringing a lot of important

441
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 3: issues to the forefront. Some people who have been illegally

442
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 3: law fared, like a fellon farmer in Michigan who's never

443
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 3: been a wrestler or given a speeding ticket, but he's

444
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 3: now a fellon because he had a bad muffler on

445
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 3: a tractor according to the Jack.

446
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 4: Boots Thugs of the Epea. So we're seeking a pardon

447
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 4: for this good man. Those are the kinds of issues

448
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 4: that I fight for every day. And the great Donald Trump,

449
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 4: who's a real commander in chief, he is addressing those.

450
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 4: We got a sheriff pardoned in West Virginia who was

451
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 4: law fared, and there's been so.

452
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: Much of that. We have a target rich environment out there.

453
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Ed Martin's going to do a great

454
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 2: job at that. Uncle Ted, I'm up against a break.

455
