Ted Nugent Totally Triggered by Not Being Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
:1orglaugh
Everyone's favorite racist uncle, Ted Nugent, is back to whining about not being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, blaming liberals and leftists for his lack of consideration, and not because, with the exception of Damn Yankee's "High Enough," he's a mediocre musician at best. ("Cat Scratch Fever" sucks. There, I said it.) According to Ultimate Classic Rock, he claimed "there was no human being alive who didn’t think he should receive the honor." As a human being who is very much alive, I will personally call his claim bullshit. Nugent has been eligible for inductions since 2000 but said last year that "political correctness" was the reason for the continued snub, which I'll also call bullshit on because the confederate flag clad Lynyrd Skynrd was inducted in 2006. Ol' Uncle Ted also thinks that his membership in the NRA is responsible for his "snub," and claimed in 2011 that his exclusion is an “embarrassing denial of historical and current truth and evidence.” Back at it again, Nugent recently spoke in an interview with My Global Mind, making some pretty bold and self-congratulatory claims about not being considered for induction, yet again: “Abandon egos, bragging and Ted Nugent speaking on behalf of Ted Nugent – is it or is it not vulgar, dishonest, and obscene that Grandmaster Flash, Patti Smith and ABBA are in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, but Ted fucking Nugent isn't? Is that the most outrageous and disgusting lie you have ever seen?” First things first, Ted Nugent can take several seats trying to come for Grandmaster Flash, Patti Smith and ABBA. There are countless artists who to this day can cite those acts as inspirations but with the exception of maybe Kid Rock, no one making music today that's worth their salt aspires to be like Ted Nugent. He went on to refer to his lack of consideration as "sacrilege" and "disrespectful and cruel" to Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Little Richard and all of the other founding fathers in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Maybe it's just me, but maybe his being pro-politics that discount the communities where artists like Chuck Berry grew up is more disrespectful and cruel than Ted Nugent not being inducted into the Rock Hall. He continued: “Would like you to find a human being…and believe them when they say Ted Nugent should not be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? I would love to witness that exchange. You would see a person almost melt with guilt because you know they are lying. At the end of the day, it's not about me – it's about the music. James Hetfield said it best when Metallica was inducted: ‘Ted Nugent not being in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is a joke. Ted Nugent is rock and roll’.” The levels of pure ego-inflation is definitely of a "Trump" caliber, and for someone who seems to care so much about being inducted, he sure is trying to act like he's better than the Rock Hall. Two-time Rock Hall inductee, David Crosby, (of the Byrds and Crosby, Stills & Nash) called out Nugent's whining, saying that he is “not good enough” to receive the honor. David Crosby ✔ @thedavidcrosby That is really funny stuff ....he’s not good enough and he never will be ....a hack player and no singer at all ....could not write a decent song if his life depended on it UltimateClassicRock ✔ @UltClassicRock . @TedNugent says it's "vulgar, dishonest and obscene" that he's not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: https://trib.al/NkYGyBK 11:19 AM - Oct 21, 2018 22.5K 5,280 people are talking about this When someone who has contributed to five of Rolling Stone's 500 'Greatest Albums of All Time,' says you're not good enough ... you're probably not good enough. The nominees for the 2019 class are Def Leppard, Devo, Janet Jackson, John Prine, Kraftwerk, LL Cool J, MC5, Radiohead, Rage Against the Machine, Roxy Music, Rufus featuring Chaka Khan, Stevie Nicks, the Cure, the Zombies and Todd Rundgren, all musical acts that have contributed more to rock and roll than the guy who was accused by his bandmates of taking sole writing credits on songs as a way to not pay his band royalties. Sorry, Uncle Ted. The Rock & Roll Hall is an honor, not your personal safe space. https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and...l-hall-of-fame |
Why is he not in the hall of fame? Maybe this video will shed some light:

I can only name one song he sings. And only then because I am a huge fan of Miami Vice and it was used on the show.
|
Warren Zevon's not in...that's the real crime!
|
Wango Tango
|
Maybe he should camp out at the Rock&Roll Hall of Fame and shit and piss his pants in protest
|

Ted Nugent dodged the draft by shitting his pants.
Have you ever noticed that it's people who don't deserve an award that always complain about not getting one? |
I am comfortable with him denied because he is a piece of human garbage.
|
I never liked Ted Nugent. Guy comes off as a total d-bag.
|
|
Not being a total jerkoff probably matters to the people choosing inductees. Regardless of his political leanings...he's a grade-A gaping asshole of a human being. He shouldn't be inducted into anything.

Fuck Ted Nugent. I'm glad that snowflake didn't win. |
I'd vote for him to be inducted into the Draft Dodger Hall of Fame under fake patriot who shat themselves

He's also a child sex predator. Received oral sex from a 12 year old and adopted his 17 year old girlfriend. The Behind the Music narrator states, “Ted admits to a number of liaisons with underage girls, and while it may have raised eyebrows, it never raised the interest of local authorities … [Pelle’s] mother signed papers making Ted her legal guardian.” “I got the stamp of approval of their parents,” Nugent revealed in the VH1 special. “Because they figured better Ted Nugent than some drug infested punk in high school.” |

ftr, I wouldn't vote for Nugent to be in the hall, mostly because he's never had a #1 hit, or even close to a #1 and hasn't sold an extraordinary amount of records. so no vote from me. |
Ted is a jackass, but I have been a fan of a handful of his songs. HOF material though? Not in my opinion.

The nuge sucked when he was with the Amboy Dukes. |

He never made it big as he didn't push singles. Singles lead to album sales and tours. Hall of Fame? Wango Tango was good but I think others deserve it more. He wasn't that big for long, his guitar skills weren't unique and his sales didn't reach the moon. I'd rather see Bob Seger & The a Silver Bullet Band |
Ted Nugent is a talentless hack. He has a right to his political views so I do not hold those against him. It's his music that sucks.

It doesn't matter to me if he wrote fucking Freebird or Stairway to Heaven. If I don't agree with him politically, he is entitled to NO reward or recognition. Ever!
That's just the way it is. |

Ted "Shit My Pants" Nugent at best is mediocre Many better acts who aren't in the RHOF |
