Ted Nugent performance cancelled
Controversial rocker Ted Nugent’s upcoming concert in Paso Robles has been canceled due to “unforeseen circumstances,” according to show promoter Nederlander Concerts, the San Luis Obispo Tribune reports. The news comes after similar cancellations prompted at least in one case by derogatory remarks Nugent made about President Barack Obama, the report said.

It would be nice to see someone I didn't see live when I was 15.
i so agree with the SHUT UP part…
This singer is a bigot.
Will be best show out there!
wouldn't pay a penny to see his old failing ass play anywhere; he's been a jerk for many years and if you've had the unpleasure of watching him perform back in the day, you're not missing anything now. I'd rather pay to see a great axe man who's guitar playing is stellar than a has been that lives to push his political views and bigotry on me at the cost of my dime.
