- In 2021, the Detroit Madman decided he had too much s***, so he decided to auction a bunch of it off for charity. In this KWTX feature package, our evening anchor Gordon Collier spoke with Ted about the auction. Gordon even got to jam with Mr. Nugent. This one was a blast to both shoot and edit!
As someone who’s been to a few estate sales, “ Do your giving while your living , so your knowing where it’s going.”
Very ,very, good advice.
Cool saying. I like that.
It’s an old saying. I did miss spell .
Great advice
@@jonyoung6405 it’s cool… I loathed school 😁✊🏼
My first vinyl album was Cat Scratch Fever given to me by my uncle at 6 yrs old it started me on my journey loving rock and roll.. thanks to Ted and to my uncle Jack!!
Very COOL!!!!!!!
The first time I ever saw Ted, he was in his early 20's, full of piss and vinegar. He has that same "balls to the wall" attitude today, and his music stills rocks as hard as ever. I just don't think he still swings from a grapevine, in a loin cloth, dropping M-80's near the crowd, but, I bet he could! (The M-80 thing was a myth but let's keep it going.)
The album entitled Ted Nugent was even better than cat Scratch Fever. I was lucky enough to see him live with REO Speedwagon at the Oakland Coliseum, that was probably 1977. What a great concert!
I saw the Scorpions, AC/DC and Ted Nugent in the 1980's at a concert. Couldn't hear right for 3 days. Always wore earplugs to concerts after that show.
Frank Great post point ! I have ALWAYs invested in AND had/worn earplugs noise blocking devices of a wide variety types & styles since grade school @ ALL esp Rock concerts
My brother in law and I went to a sporting show in Illinois on a Sunday (the last day of the event) and happened on Ted's booth. It was fairly quiet, he was actuall in he booth and we ended up spending the next 3 hours talking to him. He may be the mad man from the Motor city, a bit crazy and extremely opinionated but one of the most interesting and down to earth people I've met in 67 trips around the sun.
I met him when I was a kid. He was recording at one of favorite Studios that happens to be very close to my house.
This started a on and off relationship, seeing each here and there (back at that Studio many times) played Guitar with him many times. Solved the world's problems together, many times over the past 30 years since that day in the Studio when I was about 14 years old.
@@DetroitWrecker666 That's awesome! Thanks for sharing.
I’m proud of you
Dear Ted , know your limitations.
It's all the drugs he claims he doesn't use
Ted has had that 68 Bronco for a long time. I remember reading an article in Off Road magazine in the 80s they did on this Bronco and his 80s full size with the zebra stripe paint.
Rest assured Ted...If I could afford one of those guitars, there is NO WAY its not being played. It would be played daily.
My son and I had the pleasure of meeting and sharing a campfire with Ted. Very intelligent man and it was a pleasure to meet such an outspoken and honest man. Thanks Nuge!
Thanks for all the Great Music Uncle Ted! Keep on Rocking and God Bless!
I would take the 1968 Ford Bronco over the new ones any day.
ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!
Yeah same here. I’ve got a 1970 bronco
It was crap then, it's crap today. You are being bamboozled by nostalgia, that can get very expensive.
Heck yeah!
@@NeverTalkToCops1 you’re obviously a Chevy lover aren’t you? I hate chevy’s
I had the pleasure of seeing him live in his heyday, while Derek St.Holmes and Rob Grange were still in the band. Man, that was fun. Whatever else you want to say about the guy, he can play the guitar.
I have seen live in concert about 10 times. I put politics aside becuase I do not care what side you are on. And love his music. As you said, the guy can play.
He was a showman for sure but his guitar playing was nothing special. He hamed it up though
Yeah OK ! I would wager YOU "play" little if any musical instrument near as well lest as well as Ted Huge Nuge AND playing' w/yourself does not count except w/your boyfriend....esp if monies and judges were on AND in the betting line precepts.of agreement to wager.
You're Insane NOT OK ! That response did not address my challenge of "your" talent esp as compared to Ted Nugent specifically due to your none professional level commentary critique slight of Ted Nugent talent AND as far as comparing Ace to Ted as tho that is an Anson facto scientific demonstrable AND that therefore I know not much of guitar playing is pre-teen silly thought logic or lack thereof of logic. Also your Mom knows I'm not "gay"
You goofy f##ks who claim Ted isn't a great guitar player are touched in the head. Where's your music?
Loved his music growing up. He was one of my favorite guitarists in the ‘70s. Saw him live only one time but it was in his prime in 1977. One of the top five shows I’ve ever seen.
Seen him in 78 at the old Chicago Stadium. Between the M 80's and his stack of amps, my ears are still ringing. Derek St. Holmes made that band. Kudos to him, too.
A friend and I had tickets to see the Damn Yankees in the ‘90s and we got caught sneaking in to see the sound check. Security was throwing us back out and Ted gave us a guitar pick and a lecture about how we were supposed to be at school at that time of day! Good times!
So now , after going back to school, you're a rich accountant with your own guitar collection all thanks to Uncle Ted. Ain't this country great? Do you ever really use Algebra?
the look on my moms face when I brought home the Cat Scratch Fever album back in the 70's was priceless when she saw the cover ....and then it went to 11 on the dial...every day.....thought she was going to faint LOL but it did improve her energy over time
😅🤣😂😆🙂 Very COOL !!!
Yup.... Same happened to me when I brought home Double Live Gonzo in 77'. Dad heard the intro to Wang Dang Sweet Poontang and wasn't happy. He said, "what did he say"? My response was "anyone wants to be mellow, can truck on out of here". LOL. He didn't believe me. Mom for Christmas that year bought me some serious Pioneer headphones with a 20' foot cord so she didn't have to listen at "11". I was 15. I'm 60 now and still love Uncle Ted.
When it finally hits you reality, I’ve lost family members and some that can no longer enjoy or use personal items , having to separate and liquidate property is PAINFUL AND TIRING.
I’m middle aged and promising myself I won’t put my family through this long process , yourself a favor and for family sake straighten out your property and belongings long before THE BIG SLEEEP COMES .
I lost my mom this summer, which was my last parent and it's a nightmare because she didn't have her affairs in order.
@@BENJIR2D2
SORRY TO HERE ABOUT YOUR MOTHER .
It’s draining my mother never updated her banking so paying her bills is a task .
I can pay all mine in 5 minutes, I remember telling her 5 years ago to get a debit card .
SHE STILL DID CHECKS OUR COMMUNICATION IS TOUGH BUT SHE DRIFTS SOMETIMES.
FRUSTRATING.
IVE HAD FAMILY DO THIS THEY PULLED THEMSELVES TOGETHER AND STILL FUNCTIONED WELL .
"Anything that doesn't make me really, really happy..." sounds like Ted's been talking to Marie Kondo. Way to go Ted. You ROCK!
Gotta love this guy!
I am 54 years old and grew up the youngest of 4 siblings. My brother who was 8 years older had me listening to Uncle Ted before i was out of elementary school. In fact, the first two albums I owned for my newly acquired record player at Christmas one year, was Double Live Gonzo and Led Zep 2. thanks to my brother who would sit for hours listening to these albums with me hammering out match after match of Backgammon.
Anyway, when I crank up Uncle Ted to this day, the hair on my arms stand outright and at FULL ATTENTION!
Hearing his Byrdland channel his talents through his massive wattage of Fender amplification... brings me back to a wonderful time and place each and every time, never fails, EVER!
Losing Eddie in 2020, has changed me and my music drive... I am sure it has for many of 70's and 80's rock and rollers. However, Ted will always be my Michigan brother and my go to good time rocker.. no matter how bad the music seen has become, I can power up Great White Buffalo and go back and see in my mind, and hear Uncle Ted devour his Gibson!
Best wishes Ted. Peace be with you my man. God Bless you and America!
WANG, DANG, SWEET POONTANG!
Yes Sir Thad, I thoroughly enjoyed your comments. I also had older brothers that introduced me to the Madman back in the seventies.
@@scoobyroorogers me too but never realized what a sober man Ted has been all these decades. Simply amazing. Was not so enthusiastic about his trump belief but now hes out of the white house. Next election maybe we will have a better president perhaps than current and previous. Anything is possible😁
Out of the very many concerts I've been to over the years I've attended hid more than anyone. 7 times I can proudly say and got to meet him a few times with plenty of great conversations and autographs..thanks so much my hats off to ya 10 fingers of doom!!!!
I was lucky enough to get one of his ar’s on that auction. Pretty cool came with a letter of authenticity to back it up. Auction was in Texas and got to bid online and sent to Minnesota
This guy was the first concert I went to. It was near Louisville Ky. Before the 1975 album that really put him on the map, Ted was known as a "One Hit Wonder" with The Amboy Dukes "Journey to the Center of the Mind." The concert opened with Mike Pinera and Cactus. Then headlining was Ted Nugent! Ted called Mike to the stage for a great guitar dual. After seeing those guys up there playing I decided I was going to learn how to play guitar while holding down a 9:00 to 5:00 job, raise a wife and two kids while playing every Saturday Night at a bar in my area. Good thing I didn't add "Become Famous Rock Star" to the list!
Mike Pinera helped me to track a song that can be found on my channel entitled
“You Melt In My Eyes” (he also played the arpeggios on it) which is an original I wrote from inspiration derived from the grief of losing a women/enchantress I loved, who was the muse for it, to a drunk driver in Mexico City . Anyways it’s a long sorted but true story filled with serendipity and synchronicity… but the crux of it is both Pinera and I were both camped out in a rat infested mansion owned @ the time circa 2010… by the original manager/producer of several Sixties era acts inclusive of The Jefferson Airplane/Moby Grape/Its A Beautiful Day etc etc ie Mathew Katz up in Point Dume, Malibu before he ie Pinera with his wife vanished and absconded with the .wav files, so it has never been fully achieved or mastered and he has never relinquished what is rightfully mine, but such is life and I’ve learned to accept you cross paths with all kinds of a-holes especially if you put becoming a “rock star” on your to do list . Nonetheless the track in all modesty is still a keeper and I’m proud of it, especially as subsequent to that I ended up working with many talented folks and achieving much in the way of writing and recording and @ going on Sixty -Four still do and really have no regrets @ this point . I encourage anybody to check the track out and if also interested to dive into many more still yet to be released broadcast quality recordings on my sound cloud ie www.soundcloud.com/garyratoff . That is in part my story… and I’ll be damned if I deviate from it one iota . 🤙🏽
Love this Guy!
Big man love for Ted...He is insane in concert and musician's musician...he completely understands the passion it takes to grab a guitar and make it scream like it's a Phoenix fighting it's way outta hell.
Fucking love this guy !!!
What a legend!
"the AMBOY DUKES" AND Ted Huge Nuge !
Ted your my blood brother and your awesome
Wish I could afford one guitar and one full auto gun of his
Rock on I'm 59 and you were a major influence on my guitar, we won battle of the band in highschool ,class of 82, when fast times at ridgemont high was in the movie theater hey I indulged owell now it's about the lord and country!!!ake america great again second times a charm!!!!!
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Ted since I was 15 years old, got to see him once in the 70’s, and it’s great to see him age like a fine wine. Hat’s off to ya Ted, you’ve done it well without the substance issues that many others have had, and that ultimately brought ‘em down faster.
My dad and I saw Ted play at a fancy indoor theater here in NC just a few years back. Luckily Derek St. Holmes was there to put his touch on the vocal parts and everything sounded absolutely perfect just like the albums! My dad and I are both musicians and we could really appreciate the amount of skill, effort and dedication it took to pull off all those fast, hard hitting songs perfectly one right after the other and those tough old guys didn't even break a sweat! Not to name names but we've seen other big time acts from the same era that just did not stand the test of time anywhere near as well as Ted and his bunch. Even though he had played Cat Scratch Fever and Dog Eat Dog thousands of times before he still gave it to us with both barrels and made us all feel alive!
yeah, no substance issues, just underage girls.
@@stuartbluefield769 That happened in Hawaii where legal age of consent was 14 at the time and 16 in Teds home sate of Michigan so it was a perfectly legal and socially acceptable relationship for the time and place. She was 17 anyway, just a couple months away from the current legal age in most states.
@Macavity It doesn't matter how old he was at the time because it was perfectly legal. Who gives a shit what he wrote a song about either, are you gonna start holding all the death metal guys personally accountable for their brutally detailed songs about raping, torturing and murdering people or are you just fixated on your Uncle Ted here because he pissed you off?
saw him live on the notre dame campus around 1979, guaranteed loudest concert i ever saw! ears rang for three days!
Gotta love uncle Ted.
Excellent ☆☆☆☆☆.
Have a signed poster for my birthday from Ted Nugent from 94 still hangs on the wall and everytime I step on stage I played one of his songs. at least one !
Got a picture of him with my son great memories !
Keep your guitars, Ted, and PLAY ‘EM!!
lol he's being sensible. Sometimes you realize more isn't better.
Love that guy.
the difference between my yard sale and teds, is that he has nice stuff!
That's got to be cool! Some rare people can dramatically increase the value of things just by having owned them. I've had a few fits of selling stuff in my life like this, and I'm also thankful that it was never done to help fuel a drug habit. Got to be a lot of stories out there of similarly famous people ruining historical artifacts to generate money in a hurry. Ted is a class act.
my very first 'Big Rock Show' was Mr. Nugent and now many decades later my ears are still ringing 😵💫
Can remember skipping school to watch him perform on the Dinah Shore Show Back in the late 70’s.He swung out on to stage wearing only a loin cloth.😂A one of a kind man.
Saw Ted in Boston in the 70s with Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush great show
Man wouldn’t that be great to have a guitar from one of the greatest guitar players in the world and a great American one could only dream
A great American? Draft dodging cowards aren't even Americans in my book. Semper Fi!
I saw the listing for his auction last year, and it was a lot of items, but I'm sure not everything he owns. I hope he did well.
For those who don't really understand his motivation; Nugent is in his early 70s. He is not young anymore, he is in the last years of his life cycle and he knows it. He also knows he can't take it all with him when he passes. And he has a reputation of buying, collecting, and owning a metric ton of stuff, especially firearms, hunting gear, guitars, etc. He has buildings full of stuff. Like some older folks, he knows he can control the sale of items much better than his heirs, who will likely sell off his estate rather than keep much of it anyways. I'm sure he will still have cars to drive, guitars to play, guns to shoot, just not dozens, hundreds of each.
He's 45.. on a bad day...
@@mrkymrk99 he could die tomorrow and millions would mourn his passing.
You on the other hand...nobody.
@@msh6865 Millions of like minded, fake patriot losers! 😂
David Wang YOU'RE thinking AND stinking of your false god of Sod O'BummerHump
Wish I knew!Would have bought some guitars
Bronco enthusiast here, wish I could buy one of them. Hope you keep at least one. Keep rockin'!
Please list them online! Would love the chance to buy and have one to play!
As I have gotten older and the pile of stuff bought through the years has grown, I too have gotten to the point where enough is enough. One can only do so much, especially as you get older and time is a premium. Go Ted!
Amen
Ted, Thanks for the great music over the many years. ROCK ON!
I've always respected Mr. Nugent. Been to many of his shows. I'm now 66 years young and want to start playing guitar in a show of support for my favorite Artist. Thank you Ted Nugent. Love you all Bill.
Being from Michigan--I constantly met several people who said their dad was once a drummer for Nugent's band.
The first rock album in my life was Ted's Penetrator, it blew my mind, I still love it, it's a pity that he doesn't play songs from it at concerts, I wonder why?
The magazine says Burley Auction Gallery presents Ted Nugent Guns, Guitars & Hot Rod Cars Auction. Saturday, March 27, 2021. Tucker Hall - Waco, Texas. Almost one year ago, wish I would have heard about it earlier.
he wants his stuff to go to people who will appreciate it.
Good luck Ted! A great American! 👍😎
This was an old story. The auction was March 2021
That sucks i missed it
@@magiccheeseball Stuff went for stupid money...
@@bb_lz9790 maybe I could have bought a guitar pick or something haha
I completely understand! I was at the point of purging stuff I could not use or didn't. The process has already begun getting rid of things. It all doesn't make you happy.
Yeah I did that twice...only miss the 55 Bel-Air hardtop...and 62 nova two door hardtop....a couple 62 fender Princeton amps....and a shotgun that was my dad's. lol...
Living in Flint ,Michigan as a child in the 70's , At 2:32 brings back a lot of memories .
I saw Ted in the summer of '77 along with about 60K people at Soldier Field in Chicago. The line up was Journey, 38 Special, Lynyrd Skynyrd And Ted (who arrived in a copter). It was just about a month before Skynyrd went down. I remember finding an oz of good smoke at that show. Ahhh, good times!
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
and oooo wee cool.!
Yaaahoooo !
You can't take with you/maybe he as gets up there in age he realizes to let others enjoy his items - he is a good American and cares about the country...
When his country asked for his service, he literally shit his pants... For a whole month... He will always be a coward of the worst kind. The kind that calls himself a patriot.
@@MudtoyTT - LOL! And where did you get this info from, 'high times' magazine?
It's pretty well documented, he literally didn't change his clothes for a month before his draft interview. He shit in his underwear and showed up that way for his interview knowing he wouldn't be accepted for military service. Semper Fi@@gregkuhn7123
Uno de los más grandes guitarristas del mundo, y una gran persona, Dios lo bendiga, forever GONZO!!!!!
Such an underrated player.
@Gumshoe Beaumont How many guitar magazine covers he been on?
@Gumshoe Beaumont Don't miss the forest for the trees.
Gumshoe ButtFLU that depends on the current market price-index...!
I’ll never forget Ted standing atop the wall of speakers at Cal Jam 2.
Well ,the man has been very fortunate in life had all his toys that ever wanted, and he is getting older time to scale down or de clutter
Your life nothing wrong with that can't take with you,never seen a U haul behind a hurst...
I have de clutterd my life after I retired and feel much better and free from being tied down taking care of all my stuff. I didn't have the degree of what Ted has by no means but after while or you come to a point in life where you you need all that shit.it just bogs you down.
Call it an cleansing
Nor an Armored car in an Funeral procession ? Limitations, Cold Bold Callahan said it best.
Love ya Teddy!!! KIWI IN Oz !!!
hell ya
Uncle Ted sees the writings on the wall, you can't take everything when it's time to bug out.
?MIM Ted Huge Nuge will outlive YOU
Mike Brown May Huge Nuge Ted follow long after YOU..!
MOTOR CITY MADMAN 💯❤🎶🎼🎶🤟
Ted has one of these every year or two. The bronco I see him driving to the hardware store is a very light mint green.
You rock ted
That 59 les will go for record price i bet.
Nope
The '59 went for $300K. Also, a '58 went for $275K
I'm sure anybody that buys something that belongs to Uncle Ted will probably go in a glass case. All I can do is dream of having one of Uncle Ted's guitars because you were the one that inspired me to play the guitar in the early seventies
So glad that those guns, bows and arrows, and knives will be out there shedding blood !
live light be bright.
Dude is in great shape for 73 looks better than some fifty year old folks I know.
It's from all of those drugs he's never done..
Ted the Huge Nuge looks better @ nearly 3/4 of a century than Burnme Sandgayman looked @ "forty", now Burnme's just old "farty" His particular brand of Korrupt Kommunism nearly Killed the truly fallen Jew!
Like my father said, "you can't take it with you!" Uncle Ted has used all of these items and it's time to let it go..... Man, he's got a lot of stuff!
I'm taking it with me!
I love to start playing again with the Les Paul
How can you not like this guy he is who he is and hes still a smoking hot guitarist , politics aside I still love you crazy Ted
i want to know what he said at the end cut off
Ted, Please ,....let me ask,.... am I in your Will?
David Gilmour sold a lot of his guitars. He just replied that if he wanted a sound, he'd go and find a guitar 🎸 that would suit the need for that sound.
Best live act I have ever seen and I have seen them all in my 63 years. Consistently plays great shows with realistic ticket prices. See you in Florida Ted in July coincidentally the 45th anniversary of the first time I went to a Ted Nugent concert. One of the greatest hard rock guitarists of all time and he still blows away the youngsters. Im a fan forever
Seen Grand Funk Railroad in their heyday?
His ticket prices are priced as high as the market will allow, which I guess is pretty low from your posting.
You get to the point where you do own your stuff, your stuff owns you.
I 🖤TED!!!!!
How do you find the auction site?
You know Ted was never drunk or high, so any of his belongings are probably as good as new...
He knows what's coming down the pipeline.
A good man kows his limitations.......Yes!!
I’m gonna have some fun !!! Hell Yeah !!!
Ted has lived a good life that most men only dream of and found a good woman to accept and love him for who he is. What a lucky guy
What about the under age girl he bought from her parents that's a real classy story
Neil kneels for little boys BUTT- Stuffed Stauffer I I think you are thinking of the Korrupt Kennedy Klan of pervert Leftists...!
Neil no big deal stauffer! That was your mom...!
so when is the auction?
1959 Gibson Les Paul.... I'm crying 😭 since I missed that ..
My one Ted story is St Patty's Day 1984: Ted and then-rising star Michael Schenker in Sacto. On the radio the day of the show, Ted announced that he would be dancing on the heads of the people in the front rows...which was me and my pals, who occupied nearly the entire second row of the Auditorium.
We were there as much psyched to see the relative-newcomer (to the US scene) Michael as we were to see the wily veteran Ted, who delivered the goods. But not before Michael almost knocked the building down opening the show. He blew the whole place away. People were almost too startled to cheer. Somehow word must have got back to Ted because he brought a monster 3-hour gig and more than once in between songs gave MSG respectful authentic props, saying words to the effect of "holy crap what did we just watch?"
TRAVEL LIGHT MAKES THE JOURNEY LIGHTER
In the dictionary under rock and roll, there is a picture of Ted.
🙏❤️
Ready Sweaty Teddy ! ! !
Do what u need to do Uncle Ted. GOD BLESS U BUDDY.👍🇺🇸🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎵🎼🔊🔊🔊
He's getting rid of a '59 Les Paul sunburst? Are you kidding me? How can a guitar that classic and rare not continue to inspire him to keep rocking out? You sure he's not falling on hard times financially? That guitar alone has got to be worth between a quarter and a half million dollars! That's the holy grail of collectible electric guitars right there!
Hes getting old. Income is hard with covid. Taxes on all his properties Kids.You can't take it with you. There are plenty of cheap Les Paul's out there that sound great.
I’m with you, I’d keep that Les Paul, but he’s always been a Birdland guy.
Try $600.000 and up because it's a celebrity guitar on top of an original 59... Worth every penny.
Maybe the guy has more than one over the course of a career?
A custom coloured '50's Stratocaster in excellent condition is the REAL holy grail. Besides, they have far more tonal versatility than Gibsons. 🙂
Oh my my the rich in their toys. I just love hearing play that damn guitar.
68 bronco my dream ride
it's beautiful to see the guy keeps his materialism in check. it's too easy to become a hoarder when you're filthy rich
He is not filthy rich, that is the reason he is selling his stuff.
a true patriot
