I'm not a big Ted Nugent fan but I have to admit that is pretty freakin' funny.

I was a Nugent fan way back then, when "Journey to the Center of Your Mind" was a big hit.  After that, I could care less.

Now how would Uncle Ted know about a "Journey to the Center of Your Mind" without EVER (according to him) touching alcohol or drugs? ;D As a teen into rock (and taking journeys to the center of my mind) in the 70's, Ted was cool. After that, ehh.

Would you like him better if he played a Polka?

Absolutely! Even the lamest polka song is better that "Cat Scratch Fever." Ted Nugent's just not my thing. No offense meant to his fans. Just my 02. Which is worth less than that.

I'd rather have my fingernails pulled out with a pair of pliers than to listen to polka. That's about as irritating as rap in my opinion.

I'll listen to Ted Nugent before I will let someone pull my fingernails out. But I'd rather do neither. Polka is not for everyone - it is the highest evolutionary form of music - and not every one has evolved that far.

Polka music is good old country ,good time, partying beer drinkin' music. I have been to many family wedding's with Polka bands that rocked the house down. It's a part of my heritage so I guess I'm biased somewhat.

Have you ever listened to German music. More specifically the fest music. Oktoberfest is known as much for its traditional folk music as it is for its beer drinking. Popular and folk music, marches, and polkas make up the oompah music Germany is stereotypically famous for around the world. So I'm told. I want to go sometime.

As soon as I can quit dragging my knuckles on the ground, I'll give polka another try.  ;D

I guess it is the German heritage in me but I really do love Polka music. Wife and I go to a few really good local Oktoberfests in the area every year (and sometimes some out of the area) and drink good beer and dance. It's a lot of fun. There is some really vanilla polka out there that I can't stand to listen too (Jimmy Sturr, for instance - that's just painful) but traditional polka can be a lot of fun and very pleasant to listen too. Especially when you have been drinking.  ;)

While it certainly isn't what I'd call my favorite music full stop, I will agree that a stirring beer tent chorus of "Trink, Trink, Bruederlein Trink" will ease the tipping of 1.0L steins full of amber nectar as no other music will!

Polka is the original punk.

Oy! Oy! Oy!

I love polka music, along with klezmer!  2 under appreciated styles.

The Eagles are an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1971 by Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Bernie Leadon and Randy Meisner.



With five number one singles and six number one albums, the Eagles were one of the most successful recording artists of the 1970s.
The Eagles broke up in 1980, but reunited in 1994 for Hell Freezes Over, a mix of live and new studio tracks. Eagles released Long Road out of Eden, their first full studio album in 28 years. The next year they launched The Long Road out of Eden Tour in support of the album. The tour continued on into 2009, crossing North America and Europe, and will continue in 2010 with additional North American tour dates.

I love this band. Some of the greatest harmony you will find.
