<p>A militant gun nut who pretended to be insane to avoid going to viet nam . Recently he's been accused of having sex with Courtney love when she was about 13.</p>

<p>That's what Courtney Love accuses, and not a lot of reasons to disbelieve her. Nugent married a very young girl. Most of us probably don't want to know the sordid details of our fave pop stars. Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page, especially) was swimming in girls every night who were the same ages as the girls that had "consensual sex" with Roast Busters. It ain't pretty, and rock music has a history of it going back at least as early as Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nuge is a sleazeball idiot with a limited repertoire... but he could always rock, from the Amboy Dukes to solo. Left-wing punk rock icons Ian MacKaye (MInor Threat, Fugazi) and Henry Rollins (Blag Flag) hate-despise-loathe-cannot stomach Nugent's political idiocy, but still swear to this day that Nugent kicked ass as a rock performer. Nugent's interview patter from the 1970s is also legendary - he was laying down rap before there was rap. Besides that, he pooped in his diapers to get a deferment so that he didn't have to go to Vietnam.</p> -

<p>I bought a cool brand new 3-CD set of George Jones at a Walmart discount bin for 5 bucks. The country legend died earlier this year and I figured WTH. Superb investment.</p>

<p>Here's his first No. 1 hit from 1959 - the rockin' classic "White Lightning":</p>

<p>The Possum looks awesomely hilarious in this video, you'd swear he was Jim Carrey's grandpappy.</p> -
<p>I'm trying out this newfangled Pandora thing. Nothing in particular - just plugging in a few artists and seeing what comes out.</p>

<p>In the main room - plays the TV and is pretty cool for hooking up various music Apps etc. No Google Music support at this stage :(</p> -
<p>i made the mistake of watching a countdown of the top 20 songs by bands playing at the BDO this year. Based on what i saw, i wouldn't pay $25 for a ticket, let alone what ever fucked up price they are putting on them these days.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>it can't purely be my age that makes it seem like all music these days is made by whiney effeminate hipster douchbags</p> -

<p>I assume it was 20 songs by 20 bands ... not the top 20 songs, otherwise it would just be between three artists.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In the past I'd go to BDO as you'd be sure to uncover a couple of unknown bands just kicking off ... but this year doesn't seem like there are up and comers ... although it may just be my age. If I can fangle a free ticket I'll go but I'm not paying to go.</p>
