But yes, Ted Nugent does still tour as a musician...
Nugent's show slated for Aug. 4 at the Coeur d'Alene Casino (Idaho USA)...has been canceled by the venue after the Tribal Council learned of Nugent's history of ridiculous, racist and violent rhetoric.
“The Coeur d’Alene Tribe has always...worked ... to make sure that each and every person is treated equally and with respect and dignity.

Jon has said that he wished he could tour by instant travel to and from venues Star-Trek transporter style. Nugent may have come up with the next best thing -- making money touring without even leaving the house!
P.S. He's got a gig scheduled in Montclair New Jersey tonight.
A protest is scheduled, too. And clouds are beginning to form over his Saturday show in
Oshkosh Wisconsin.
