Last month, during the filming of VH1's upcoming reality show starring Ted Nugent, Sebastian Bach, Scott Ian, Evan Seinfeld and Jason Bonham, Nugent ventured to local Vegas blues club The Sand Dollar for an impromptu blues jam on Feb 25th, where the legendary guitarist jammed for 40 minutes with Joe Bonamassa. Afterwards Nugent had the following to say about his experience :
Ted Nugent played an impromptu blues jam at the club on Feb. 25. Here's what he had to say about it, "Last night, my musical jihad grew even more hair on its scrotum, because I got to jam onstage, no band, just a couple of Les Pauls and a kid named Joe Bonamassa, a white kid from New York. It was just us onstage, and this little white prick, and this older white prick, continued to pretend we weren't, in fact, white at all. This kid deserves to be in the same class with Stevie Ray Fucking Vaughan and Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck. It was really inspiring. So this kid and I had maybe 40 minutes of exchanges of notes that don't exist, guitar sounds that are brand new, and soul and emotion that can only go back into the glow of the B.B./Albert/Freddy King world."

Very interesting it would be cool to see Ted and Joe work together.

I think that would turn out better than Ted collaborating with Green Day!

Hey, gotta tell ya Nightwatcher, Joe B is a totally awesome dude, the guy should certainly be acknowledged better than his is now, I'd say he's right up there too with Jeff Healey. My wife & I were going to see Paul Rodgers Bad Company, back in 2002 or 2003 @ Pine Knob (It will always be Pine Knob & NOT DTE to us!) & since we're both muso's - Well, I'm a drummer, so it's close! - we often check out beforehand who the opening acts are. Well that day I think it was announced Joe B would open & we'd never heard the name & knowing how deep bluesy / souly P. Rodgers can be, we thought we wouldn't rush to get to show. Well, we arrived @ the gig, got out of the car & heard this rocking music & knew it wasn't the PA pre-show music & I said, "Holy cow, have they (Bad Co) already started?" We got in & saw this guy rocking. He was totally cool. We brought 2 of his CD's the next day, one of course with the free Live DVD. Joe B is totally up there & should be playing bigger venues, getting better, bigger tours. He really rocks! Look forward to the next opportunity to see him again. Joe, come back to Detroit, we'd love ta see ya! Cozy Al

What I've heard of the new album it's going to be awesome. His cover of Zep's "Tea For One" is fantastic, with Jason Bonham's drums giving it that needed 'Zep factor'

Joe's always on Fire when he gets on stage-i'm a big fan of his-i love Ted as well but i always think Joe should get together with another hero of mine and that is Frank Marino and that would be Radioactive

Ha ha ha! Yep, I kinda hear you dudes about J.B. smokin' ...., guess Jeff's gettin' to be more of an older hand at it now! Any of you cats heard of Aynsley Lister? He's a young UK blues rock guitar player too, not in the same league as Sir J.B. but a good act just the same. Check him out sometime .... Cozy Al out!
