In a recent post on X, Ted Nugent said he was happy about the huge crowd at his Texas concert.
The rocker shared some photos from the gig and wrote the following in his message to celebrate:
“Record attendance just an old school impromptu nuts&bolts makeshift shitkicker crazyFUN ultraROCK SpeakEzy grinding rock out!!! Come and see us in Texas this month. ShitKicker SpeakEazy’s!”
Ted Continues Performing Live
In the rest of his post, Nugent shared the links for the tickets to his upcoming shows. The show at Buck’s Backyard in Buda, Texas, was the singer’s first concert from his recently announced Speakezy Rockouts live shows. He shared it with fans by writing on Instagram:
“Get your tickets now for a small run of surprise SpeakEazy shows! Get tix for the May 4th show at https://www.stubwire.com/c/1050/twofrogsgrill/ ‘Blues, Brews & BBQ’ with Jared James Nichols & Wes Jeans – May 4 Saturday, 6:00 PM, 2024, Heritage Hall, Ardmore, OK, USA.”
Touring Life Is Not For Him Anymore
In 2023, Ted finished his Adios Mofo ’23 goodbye tour. In a chat with THAT Rocks!, the musician explained why he doesn’t want to travel and perform as much anymore:
“Hotels are jail. I hate jail… I will always play music. The music still has fire. I still crave it. I’ve got new songs. I’m gonna go in the studio with these killer musicians that are always at my side. But traveling, I tell you… A hotel room is jail… The travel and the hotels… And I don’t even have to go to TSA [Transportation Security Administration]; I mean, I gave the finger to them in 2009. If somebody doesn’t send a jet, I don’t go anywhere.”
Nugent Is Open To Do More Shows
Still, the rocker will keep performing live. He told in an appearance on SiriusXM’s Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk:
“Well, my guitars are still breeding. My guitars are having an orgy right now in my man cave cuckoo’s nest. I play my guitar every day. I’ve got a band here in Texas — Jon Kutz on the drums and Johnny Big on bass and vocals, and we jam all the time. We do a bunch of Ted Nugent speakeasies, just some roustabout sh*tkicker rock and roll getdowns at various places around the state of Texas — sometimes spontaneous, sometimes it’s promoted. But I’ll still do gigs; I just won’t go on tour.”
His next performance on Speakezy Rockouts is on April 20 at the Grain in Hamilton. Nugent’s other shows are on April 26, May 3, and May 4.
