Veteran rocker Ted Nugent will reach a milestone this summer when the singer/guitarist will play his 6,000th concert during his three month tour. The trek starts June 7 in Sandusky, OH and concludes September 27 in Reno, NV, during which time the Motor City Madman will play 40 North American concerts sandwiched around eight European shows, July 7-14.
Nugent is not out promoting a new album. His latest release was his self-produced 2007’s “Love Grenade.” His stage show though, features most of his chestnuts, including “Journey to the Center of the Mind,” which was recorded by The Amboy Dukes, his group before starting a solo career.
In recent years, Nugent, who has sold more than 35 million albums, has almost become better known for his exploits away from music. An avid hunter, he has advocated for hunters rights, and has been an outspoken political activist. In addition, he also starred in a VH1 television show, called “Surviving Nugent,” where he put contestants through rigorous outdoor training activities.
