According to BLABBERMOUTH.NET

TED NUGENT Says PANTERA's Version Of 'Cat Scratch Fever' Had 'No Soul, No Balls' - May 14, 2006

Ted Nugent has slammed PANTERA's cover of his signature tune "Cat Scratch Fever" as having "no soul, no balls" and "no feel," adding that the members of PANTERA appeared as "Ozzy-like zombies on TV" whose conduct on stage went against his lifelong anti-drugs and -drink stance.

Responding to a fan posting on Nugent's official message board (dubbed "The Nuge Board") about late PANTERA guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott and the VH1 "Behind the Music" special on PANTERA that premiered this past Thursday, Ted (who posts on the message board under the name "Nuge") wrote that he "never thought too highly of anyone foolish enough to take on the nickname of a life-destroying dope product and promote such family-destroying conduct on stage."

When another fan pointed out that Dimebag "loved" Nugent's music and that he had stated in a magazine interview that he often played some of Ted's riffs before a show to loosen up the fingers going so far as to cover "Cat Scratch Fever" for the 1999 "Detroit Rock City" soundtrack Nugent responded, "though I'm no expert on all things PANTERA, I did hear their version of 'Cat Scratch Fever' and it was exceedingly white. No soul, no balls, no feel. Caucasian all the way. Elements of dope, booze and heroin disconnect quite apparent as usual. There is no excuse for such horrifically negative, irresponsible, criminal, America-wrecking behavior as such chimp-like substance abuse. Period. They appeared as Ozzy-like zombies on TV. Ya think. American drunks and dopers are allahpuke terrorists' favorite allies. Damn them. Damn them all."

After the fan who started the original thread (who calls himself "the_A_team") defended Dimebag by saying that "you have to at least respect Dime as a guitarist," adding that "even though he did drugs, I heard he didn't do very many," Nugent replied, "I indeed do respect all people for the positives in their life. Sadly, there comes a time of diminishing returns in the balance. At the end of the day, my respect is reserved for those solidly in the asset column of mankind."

Good for Ted.

I'm glad someone in this country still has enough balls to say what he feels and not be afraid of hurting metrosexual Americas itty bitty feewings. It's a pretty sad fucking state that no ones allowed to state their opinion anymore without running it through the butt-hurt-o-meter to make sure theres no demographic it can offend.

Long live the Nuge.

So Ted isn't allowed to have his opinion of people who use drugs. Forget the fact that he wrote the fucking song. He is allowed to weigh his opinion. Fuck those young douchebags that worship a guitar player they are told to. I like Pantera and Dimebag was awsome. Always will be but Ted is Ted. Ask his opinion and you'll get it.

"If anybody wants to get mellow they can turn around and get the fuck out of here."

Great quote from double live Gonzo. Nuge was the OG hardliner.

nugent is a douchebag
i dont care what he thinks of pantera or whatever
he can say what he wants
i have no issues with the things he says
im no lefty hippie p.c. type by any means
but he bores the shit outta me and i find him to be a total douche
and i have issues with the whole hunting thing
again, im no animal rights type or anything like that
hunters just bother me for some reason, esp. the ones who get all jacked about it and make it such a huge part of their lives

i have an Acme a few blocks away. i dont need to shoot me no muskrat or anything.
Ted Nugent is entitled to his opinion of whatever, just as I am entitled to my opinion that he is a jack off. I would never consider myself a giant Pantera fan or anything, but I like their stuff much better than um, cat scratch fever, was that his only popular song? I dont know dont care.
Im hung over as all hell and the AC is broke.
got me an 8 track recorder and some new strings last night as well as a shit load of borrowed pedals. I'll be rockin out in the basement where it is cool and dry.

Jason the Magnificent - 6-17-2006 at 12:38 PM

Way more than Cat Scratch...but whatever. He always was about the same thing he was always about, compared to Pantera who were a Glam metal band who couldn't make the cut so they jumped ship and rode the coat tails of early 90's death metal to success.

No one can dispute that Dimebag was a great guitar player and changed metal guitar playing....METAL guitar playing.

Ted Nugent revolutionized guitar playing on the whole...every genre, not just metal and The amount of people Dimebag influenced is a drop in the bucket compared to those influenced by Nugent.

Damn dopeheads always attacking American values like banging hundreds of women and shooting animals!

"The Nuge" can go fuck himself cause he's pretty much worthless as far as music goes in my opinion. I'm not even a Pantera fan. I just hate Ted Nugent. The dude is a douche bag.
