More on My generation's music
Ted Nugent was a crazy guitar playing rocking MFer.
There was a guy I watched and listened to playing guitar last night that played one of TN's songs "Stranglehold".
And this guy played Jimi and Eric and ZZ and Lynyrd.
I hope to post a few short videos of his performance before the weekend's out.
His band was called "The Feel" and he was a little skinny guy on a corner in Bohunk Tx but he played like he was in front of 100000 people at LA coliseum.
That's what's missing today.
You can take all of today's music and pile it all together and it wouldn't make a pimple on a gnat's ass compared to the music of my generation.
The musicians from my generation were just that -
MUSICIANS and ENTERTAINERS
They played big, lived big and created masterpieces of sound and light and high audio quality.
Everybody today is more concerned about having perfect pitch and getting lots of followers on Twitter.
They've lost the ability to reach down and grab you by the gonads and rip your guts and heart out with their music, lyrics and performances.
When that guy last night played, it made me remember the effect that real music and musical talent has on you.
You don't care what they look like or who they are or where they performed last.
You just feel the music with every part of your body and soul.
That's music.
