You would think that Ted would take his hard-earned money and depart graciously...well,
you WOULD think that...
Quote:
...Nugent’s New York agency had agreed on the date, but the city paid a cancellation fee because “we’re a diverse community and we’re trying to find a group or act that people throughout the community feel good about"...(Longview Texas mayor Jay) Dean said..."Not a lot of people know who Ted is...Younger people here don’t know him.”
...Nugent, 65, a former Detroit rocker turned McLennan County rancher...has been recovering from double knee replacement surgery...“I hear from reliable sources that the mayor is a racist and was offended that my band performs mostly African-American-influenced music,” he wrote...“Sounds like a sad case of anti-Texas in Texas...
"Everyone knows ol’ Uncle Ted is the ultimate Independence Day rockout with the ultimate all-American, soul music, rockin’ soundtrack of defiance, liberty and freedom. We shall carry on. We are the good guys. Clueless, dishonest people like the mayor are the bad guys.”
