Very interesting, old school rocker myself Hense the word OLD hey its okay Im probly one of the oldest on the board but if you still are havin fun thats all that maters! I have turned my teens on to many of the good groups of my day and they love it (well most of it) have you ever seen Ted Live? I got to see him many years ago when I was still livin in the Bay Area, The show was at the Cow Palace (if your old enough to know what that is ) in SF I duno been gone from there for about 12 years now maybe it still exists? Anyway it was a great!! show he is Awsome. Also saw the Who in Oakland! one of the best concerts EVER! Well Happy Thanksgiving!

It's all gone downhill since the Doggie Diners went out of business I tells ya...

(edit)

Heh, I just checked the mail I got yesterday:



Cool! I guess maybe they still have concerts there or have the new places taken over?
I kinda remember the Doggie Diners (maybe Im not that old ) The Bay Area is a Great place to live, Cant beat the weather!!! I know its gotten awfull expensive though! Enjoy the Sunshine!!!!

He shoots himself? Sorry for that, but that neo-nazi crapola poster child is soooooo boring. Backwards is never the answer. That's what the Middle East is all about. All things evolve and go forward to an unknown. Trying to stay in one particular place because it's your ideal warm fuzzy place and nice and familiar and safe is retarded and cowardly and attempting to remain static. That equals dead. Evolve or perish. Good Night Ted!

i saw ted on his first gig for the 'cat scratch fever tour'. it was a little bar called chances are in ann arbor. i sat in the center balcony about twenty feet from tedster. it took about three days till i could hear again, but it was one of the greatest concerts ever.

a month later i sat in the same spot for bob segar's beautiful loser tour. another great concert.

both hometown boys who gave a little extra for ann arbor.

happy thanksgiving!

Sorry dude. He's just a showbusiness bag of wind. Rush Limbaugh with a mane. Self promoter. Salesman. All for profit. If you buy into that which he sells, you will also buy his products. It is his business. He is filling a niche market. No hero he. The smile on his face when he talks of killing, and how natural and RIGHT it is appeals to certain Walter Mitty individuals. He profits, society does not. Violence is a profitable product. Look at the world. It is run by Daddy Warbucks and his backers. Hollywood happily profits from this business also along with a host of others. Turning blood into money is a very old game. It is not the pastime of one who has "evolved" as Ted supposedly has as stated above. By the way, my favorite T shirt is "Your favorite band SUCKS!".
