Ted Nugent "Motor City Mayhem" = 100% Pure American Patriotic Muscle Rock = A1+!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This in a "landmark" concert celebrating Ted's 6,000th concert. It was filmed on the 4th of July, 2008, at the DTE Energy Music Centre in Ted's hometown of Detroit.
An Energy Centre is a great place for a concert like this, because, this is a very entergetic concert! It is also a celebration of 40+ years of touring, all over the world by Ted Nugent. Also, it is a celebration of Freedom, Independence, and the 4th of July (The "Birthday of our Nation). The crowd is really into this one, and Ted has excellent interaction with the crowd of 20,000+ people. At the beginning you get a beautiful woman, dressed in a bikini, coming out of a large 4th of July, imitation birthday day cake.

The basic line-up includes:
Ted Nugent on lead vocals, lead guitar and bow & arrow.
Mick Brown on "Thunder" drums.
Greg Smith on "Funkbrother" bass.

Also, you get guest musicians as follows:
Motor City Drummer Johnny Lee.
Bloodbrother Derek St.Holmes on guitar.

Overall, this is an outstanding, "high-entergy", well performed concert by Ted and his band, and the guest musicians. The approxiamte running time is 123 minutes.
This is Ted Nugent at his best. This is pure 100% American Rock & Roll at its best!!!! Thanks!!!!

another great one!
For about $10, you get two hours of Ted, with great footage, great camera work, great sound, and amazing musicians. As always, Ted is a show all by himself, but this DVD has Derek back (and in fine form), one song with Ted's guitar teacher from his childhood (how great is that?) and Johnny Badanjek sits in on drums for "Jenny Take A Ride". Great great stuff, and for this price, it's a steal. Not to mention the flaming arrow, at the end of the show.
Thanks Ted!

Ted needs help...
Video quality...check...audio quality...check...right-wing mumbo jumbo...check...set list...good with the exception of Soul Man, which seemed completely out of place. However, I've been a Sweaty Teddy fan since the beginning and I've owned most of his records at one time or another. I saw him with the Damn Yankees and he was great. Sadly, I've always suspected that Ted should not front a band and this video proves it. He's best when teamed with someone who can motivate an audience. For example, Derek St. Holmes, who demonstrated that Ted has no stage presence by comparison. The songs that Holmes sings are miles above Ted and he effortlessly gets the audience going, whereas Ted just struggles. Notice how many times he says "Independence Day", "Freedom", and "Motor City" to get a cheap rise from the audience....at least 50 times throughout the show. This is acceptable two or three times but it is just embarrassing that he needs to try so hard. I wonder what his dialogue consists of when he's not playing in Detroit on July 4th. And what is it with referring to himself in the third person as Uncle Teddy at least a dozen times? That seemed a little creepy to me. It got to the point where I was cringing, seeing him pandering so badly. By the end, I couldn't take it anymore.
