Ted Nugent Kicks Off Farewell Tour: Set List and Interview

Ted Nugent kicked off his Adios Mofo  farewell tour on Wednesday with a mix of fan favorites and deeper cuts during a 16-song set at the Seminole Casino Hotel in Immokalee, Florida.

"Last night was awesome, we played 4% of my favorite songs," Nugent laughs during a conversation with UCR the next morning. "I could be up there for 11 days and never run out of killer Ted Nugent songs to play. My feet just don’t touch the ground. The audiences are so intense. They hang on every note and every word, every musical passage. [Drummer] Jason Hartless, [bassist] Johnny [Schoen] and I, like all of my musicians, we always really, really focus maniacally on the groove, the dynamics, the musical movement and the adventure element. We played for two hours, and it was a dream."

The set list included a selection from Nugent's catalog, but there were also several teases tucked deep inside the songs. During "Stormtroopin'," for example, the band riffed a bit of ZZ Top's " Francine ," a first for Nugent, even though he's worked in bits of the band's other songs before.

"It’s the groove," he explains. "I mean, Billy [Gibbons] is a groove dog. He comes from the same school of Chuck Berry , Little Richard , Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters and Lightnin’ Hopkins that I do. We did gigs with ZZ Top going all of the way back to 1970 or 1971."

You can see the opening night set list below.

What to Expect on Ted Nugent's 2023 Tour

Fans can expect some of Nugent's friends and former bandmates to show up onstage as Adios Mofo's run continues. Amboy Dukes members K.J. Knight and Bob Leonard - "The first lead singer of the Amboy Dukes in 1965," Nugent adds - are among the expected. Nugent notes that drummer Tom Noel, from his earliest days with the Lourds, will join him in Detroit.

The Adios Mofo tour continues Thursday in Orlando and will wrap up on Aug. 21 in Ardmore, Oklahoma.

Ted Nugent Announces His Final Tour – ‘Adios, Mofo’

Motor City Madman Ted Nugent announced what he's calling his " last tour " in a video message to his fans on Thursday (April 13). He said he'll still play music and is currently working on new material.

The 74-year-old rocker has entertained audiences for over 50 years since his early group  The Amboy Dukes  began in the '60s. Nugent's self-titled solo debut arrived in 1975. He's since released 15 more albums, including last year's Detroit Muscle . Alas, his final, 14-date "Adios, Mofo" U.S. tour starts July 20 in Shipshewana, Indiana, and concludes in his original stomping grounds of Detroit on Aug. 11.

Watch the video and see the dates below.

"This is 'Adios, Mofo,'" Nugent says. "This is my last tour. Now, I'll always play music — I've got new records I'm gonna make. I can't wait to unleash some."

He continues, "I've got a [new] instrumental called 'Butter Fingers' that is just greasy. You can't eat barbecue ever again adequately without the song 'Butter Fingers' playing loud next to your brisket."

Elsewhere in the video, Nugent adds, "Thank you, everybody, for an incredible musical dream. The musical dream will continue but I'm not going on tour anymore because … hotels are jail. A hotel room is jail for me. My dogs won't allow me to not spend the day with them, so [my dogs] will go on the road with me."

Ted Nugent’s Adios Mofo ’23 tour brings solid classic rock to Tampa

Live review.

By Chyrisse Tabone, Rock At Night Tampa

Live Review: Ted Nugent’s Adios MoFo ’23 with Hillbilly Vegas- Seminole Hard Rock Casino, Tampa, Florida – July 16, 2023

Ted Nugent kicked off his  Adios Mofo ‘23 tour in Immokalee, Florida, on July 12 th . Like Peter Frampton, he announced the summer tour is his last. Since I was raised on 70s classic rock—and being from Metro Detroit—it was my duty to attend the Motor City madman’s concert in Tampa, Florida.  

On Sunday, July 16th, the Seminole Hard Rock was filled with the odor of cigarette smoke and the clanking of slot machines as I made my way to the event center. There was a long line of Gen X’ers and Baby Boomers waiting to go through security and make their way to the merch table. With men outnumbering women, many were wearing concert t-shirts from past tours and “Nugent for President” shirts. The 1,500-seat auditorium, which has an intimate feel, filled up quickly.  They may have rolled in on wheelchairs and still sported long hair (albeit receding and silver), but one thing for sure—they were there to rock.

Starting promptly at 8 o’clock, Oklahoma-based Hillbilly Vegas kicked off the “Steady At the Wheel,” which earned them immediate respect from the audience. The audience hungry for classic rock showed approval with plenty of cheers and whistles. Lead singer Steve Harris remarked, “I’m sweating up here like a whore in church!”   

  With a lot of member interplay and solid rock music, the band fed off the crowd’s energy. Harris commended the audience on their enthusiasm compared to the previous night’s performance saying, “Tampa needs to tell Daytona how to be loud. Next time you go to bike week, tell them to get their shit together.”  

  Highlights included “2 Gun Town,” which pays homage to law enforcement. Harris said the song reached Number 18 on Billboard’s chart, much to his surprise due to the nature of the song’s lyrics. He then thanked Ted Nugent for mentioning the band on social media (“social media exploded after the kind words from him”), the crowd’s enthusiasm (“the audience becomes part of our set”), and asked, “Are there any hillbillies out there?” After a roar of cheers, the band played the catchy, Southern rock tune, “Shake It Like a Hillbilly.”    

  Overall, Hillbilly Vegas was the perfect choice as a support band with their brand of no-nonsense rock and roll. With harmonies and a full sound (the guitar player even switched to the keyboard for a honkytonk touch), they appeal to fans of Blackberry Smoke and followers of “New Classic Rock.”    

  During the removal of the band’s equipment and the unveiling of the massive tower of speakers, “Journey to the Center of Your Mind,” from Nugent’s early band the Amboy Dukes, played in the background. Prominently displayed on the stage were two flags with a gun saying “I Will Not Comply.” A group of concert-goers gathered near the stage to pose for selfies.   

  At approximately 9:15 p.m., Nugent emerged through a thick cloud of white smoke, wearing khakis, a snake-print shirt, and a cowboy hat, performing his rendition of the “Star Spangled Banner.” Many rose to their feet. He breezed through “Gonzo” and “Storm Troopin” as the floor seat audience chose to stand through the entire show.   

  Known for his humor and rapid-fire banter, he spoke between songs about his guitar (“My guitar loves me. I’ve got the spirit in my fingernails”), his feelings about the state of the union (“Cluster Fuck 2023. How fucked up can the Uncle Sam pieces of shit get?”), and his assured he will still be performing (“Uncle Ted is still rockin’ his balls off”). He confirmed that the tour is his last (“Hotels are jail”) and dedicated “Wang Dang Sweet Poontang” to “all the girls.”   

  He switched guitars every few songs (“My guitars are breeding backstage”) and showed the energy level of a 30-year-old man. He was constantly moved about the stage and looked even more fit than last year’s performance. He appeared to have a glow of happiness, as he was clearly enjoying himself on stage and asked, “Can you feel the love?”  

Performing with Nugent was bassist/singer Johnny Schoen, who had an impressive voice, and laid down the melody. Detroit drummer/backup singer Jason Hartless, who was working up a sweat, laid down the beat. Altogether, the trio sounded full and fleshed out.

There was fist-pumping and cell phones held high as Nugent sang “Come and Take It,” which morphed into the chant “Fuck Joe Biden.” He thanked the Hillbilly Vegas band for supporting the show and the audience saying, “You are the best people in the world if you are here with me because I’m a tough motherfucker.” A roar of cheers and whistles ensued while he dove into “Good Friends and a Bottle of Wine.” Between Nugent’s guitar tone and the melody, he truly took the audience on a harmonious journey.

A special evening moment was when he spoke of moving to Chicago in 1965 and starting the band Amboy Dukes. It turned out the Dukes’ original lead singer Bob Lehnert was in the room and would make a special appearance with the band to perform “Route 66.” Lehnert sang and performed on the harp (exceptionally well, I might add) while Nugent put out classic blues licks.

  Nugent paid homage to the bow-hunting pioneer “Fred Bear,” while playing a tiger-striped guitar. The song resonated with a few men, who stood, raising their fists in victory and solidarity.   

He switched out guitars (“Welcome Blackie! Blackie likes to play sexy guitar”) and had the whole audience dancing to “Cat Scratch Fever.” I believe the highlight of the evening was “Stranglehold,” with its bad-ass groove that sounded even better than ever. The raw energy on stage between Nugent, Hartless, and Schoen was electric—and will stay embedded in my mind for a long time. It took me back to my junior high days and I felt for a fleeting moment, young again.   

  While leaving the show, I conversed with a guy on the escalator. I asked, “So, what did you think of the show? Have you seen him before?”  

  The 57-year-old responded, “Well, this took me back to 1979 at the Tangerine Bowl with Aerosmith and Cheap Trick. I was 14 and was there with three girls! Nugent was swinging from a rope and playing guitar.”   

  There was no rope swinging tonight, but only solid rock and roll. That’s what it’s all about.

“This is my last tour,” Nugent announced. “But I’ll always play music. I’ve got new records I’m gonna make. I can’t wait to unleash some of these new songs.”

Nugent thanked his fans for their support and said that while his musical dream would continue, he would no longer be going on tour because “hotels are jail.” Instead, Nugent will be accompanied by his beloved dogs on the road.

“The point is the American Dream has a soundtrack, and with my unbelievable musicians for 65 years, I have created the most fun, titillating, centrally stimulating soundtrack in the history of the world,” Ted Nugent added.

Ted Nugent also shared a press statement about Adios Mofo 23 tour:

“Performing my killer songs with this killer band for these killer music loving audiences every night is an indescribable joyous musical celebration beyond words. Every song has a life of its own and the spirit and energy of each night is off the charts stimulating on all human levels and beyond. My amazing American Dream sure as hell ain’t over, and no way can I even see it from here! However, my fiery vaportrail of flamethrowing all American R&B and rock ‘n’ roll has been so much damn fun, I can hardly believe it. I will write The Book, but for now, it’s ‘Adios Mofo ’23’ !

Adios Mofo: Ted Nugent Announces Farewell Tour

The controversial rocker says his time on the road has come to an end

Ted Nugent says he is retiring from the road following a farewell tour this summer.

The “Adios Mofo” tour (his name for the tour, not ours) launches in late July with dates scheduled in Indiana, West Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Ohio, and Michigan. Nugent is hyping the trek as “the greatest, most intense, tightest, most dynamic, outrageously fun tour of my life.” Tickets are available here .

Nugent cited his hatred of hotels and a desire to spend more time with family as the reason for his impending retirement. “I’m not going on tour anymore because hotels are jail. A hotel room is jail for me,” he said. “My dogs won’t allow me to not spend a day with them, so [my dogs] will go on the road with me this year. But the logistics are just too complicated when you have dogs and grandkids and kids and so many other things.”

Nugent also stressed that he isn’t retiring from music altogether. “I’ll always play music. I’ve got new records I’m gonna make. I can’t wait to unleash some of these new songs,” he said.

Though Nugent’s musical career has stretched nearly six decades, these days the rocker mostly finds himself in the headlines for his outspoken and often times offensive political hot takes . He still has a supporter in Tom Morello, however, who recently defended his friendship with Nugent by saying, “I reserve the right to be friends with anybody.”

Ted Nugent Farewell Tour Dates:

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Paleontological finds 

Red marble walls of some of the Metro stations hide in themselves petrified inhabitants of ancient seas. Try and find some!

• Every day each car in  Moscow metro passes  more than 600 km, which is the distance from Moscow to St. Petersburg.
• Moscow subway system is the  5th in the intensity  of use (after the subways of Beijing, Tokyo, Seoul and Shanghai).

Watch: TED NUGENT Returns To Live Stage In Buda, Texas

Ted Nugent played the first of his recently announced "Speakezy Rockouts" live shows on Saturday, April 13 at Buck's Backyard in Buda, Texas. Fan-filmed video of the concert can be seen below.

In 2023, the 75-year-old outspoken conservative rocker completed his "Adios Mofo '23" farewell tour. The trek saw him backed by his most recent solo band consisting of drummer Jason Hartless and bassist Johnny Schoen .

In an interview with "THAT Rocks!" , Ted spoke about his decision to embark on what was billed as his last-ever tour. Regarding why he doesn't want to spend time on the road anymore, Ted said in part: "Hotels are jail. I hate jail… I will always play music. The music still has fire. I still crave it. I've got new songs. I'm gonna go in the studio with these killer musicians that are always at my side. But traveling, I tell you… A hotel room is jail… The travel and the hotels… And I don't even have to go to TSA [ Transportation Security Administration ]; I mean, I gave the finger to them in 2009. If somebody doesn't send a jet, I don't go anywhere. My friends are better than your friends, 'cause my friends have jets. So, I'm not TSA and I'm not gonna let somebody fondle my Glock [gun] and ask me questions about gun laws. And hotels are so painful for me."

Ted went on to clarify that he is not retiring from playing live. "The fire, the music, it will always go on," he said. "I play my guitar every day… And I get to collaborate with the best musicians in the world. So it's always a challenge, it's always intriguing, it's always stimulating. I'm an old man — I'm 75 this year — but the stimuli factor… I hope that somebody else in this world is as stimulated by the music as I am, because it's still very much alive and well."

Asked if he will miss the audience and the live interaction on stage, Ted said: "Yes. Of course I will. But again, I won't miss it because I'll still do it… I'm not going out for months or even weeks. I'll do the occasional special events. I do a lot of corporate stuff… Yeah, I'm an energized son of a bitch, but I am 75, and I'm not swinging from ropes and I'm not wearing a loincloth and I'm not jumping off the amplifiers with my new knees. So I will miss it, but, again, I've got 12 grandkids and I don't wanna go away someday and not make an imprint on them, teach them about the important things in life. In a world that's really gone really stupid, I think my grandparenting responsibilities are more important now than ever."

Nugent 's self-titled debut album in 1975 was certified double platinum in the United States, while "Free-for-All" , "Cat Scratch Fever" , "Weekend Warriors" and "State Of Shock" all reached the Top 30 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Nugent has reportedly sold over 40 million albums and was named Detroit's greatest guitar player of all time by readers of MLive .

The conservative rocker, who been eligible for the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame as a solo artist since 2000, has enjoyed a remarkably successful and eventful musical career over the past five decades, but his music is increasingly overshadowed by his political outbursts.

Nugent 's latest album, "Detroit Muscle" , was released in April 2022 via Pavement Music . The follow-up to 2018's "The Music Made Me Do It" was recorded with Ted 's previous touring band, which included bassist Greg Smith and Hartless .

In May 2023, Smith , who had played bass for Ted for 16 years, announced his departure from the legendary rocker's touring band. He explained in a statement: "It was a difficult decision but one that I really had no choice in. With Ted no longer touring I had to accept an offer from a tour that will continue for the next several years. I tried to get someone to cover for me for the 2nd half, so I'd be able to do Ted 's tour, but I was unfortunately unable to."

For the first time Rosatom Fuel Division supplied fresh nuclear fuel to the world’s only floating nuclear cogeneration plant in the Arctic

The fuel was supplied to the northernmost town of Russia along the Northern Sea Route.

The first in the history of the power plant refueling, that is, the replacement of spent nuclear fuel with fresh one, is planned to begin before 2024. The manufacturer of nuclear fuel for all Russian nuclear icebreakers, as well as the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, is Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC), a company of Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL that is based in Elektrostal, Moscow Region.

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactors of the icebreaking type. Unlike convenient ground-based large reactors (that require partial replacement of fuel rods once every 12-18 months), in the case of these reactors, the refueling takes place once every few years and includes unloading of the entire reactor core and loading of fresh fuel into the reactor.

The cores of KLT-40 reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating power unit have a number of advantages compared to the reference ones: a cassette core was used for the first time in the history of the unit, which made it possible to increase the fuel energy resource to 3-3.5 years between refuelings, and also reduce the fuel component of the electricity cost by one and a half times. The FNPP operating experience formed the basis for the designs of reactors for nuclear icebreakers of the newest series 22220. Three such icebreakers have been launched by now.

For the first time the power units of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant were connected to the grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020. The supply of nuclear fuel from Elektrostal to Pevek and its loading into the second reactor is planned for 2024. The total power of the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, supplied to the coastal grid of Pevek without thermal energy consumption on shore, is about 76 MW, being about 44 MW in the maximum thermal power supply mode. The FNPP generated 194 million kWh according to the results of 2023. The population of Pevek is just a little more than 4 thousand, while the FNPP has a potential for supplying electricity to a city with a population of up to 100 thousand people. After the FNPP commissioning two goals were achieved. These include first of all the replacement of the retiring capacities of the Bilibino NPP, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya TPP, which has already been operating for more than 70 years. Secondly, energy is supplied to the main mining companies in western Chukotka in the Chaun-Bilibino energy hub a large ore and metal cluster, including gold mining companies and projects related to the development of the Baimsk ore zone. In September 2023, a 110 kilovolt power transmission line with a length of 490 kilometers was put into operation, connecting the towns of Pevek and Bilibino. The line increased the reliability of energy supply from the FNPP to both Bilibino consumers and mining companies, the largest of which is the Baimsky GOK. The comprehensive development of the Russian Arctic is a national strategic priority. To increase the NSR traffic is of paramount importance for accomplishment of the tasks set in the field of cargo shipping. This logistics corridor is being developed due regular freight voyages, construction of new nuclear-powered icebreakers and modernization of the relevant infrastructure. Rosatom companies are actively involved in this work. Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL (Rosatom Fuel Division) includes companies fabricating nuclear fuel, converting and enriching uranium, manufacturing gas centrifuges, conducting researches and producing designs. As the only nuclear fuel supplier to Russian NPPs, TVEL supplies fuel for a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, for research reactors in nine countries, as well as for propulsion reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every sixth power reactor in the world runs on TVEL fuel. Rosatom Fuel Division is the world’s largest producer of enriched uranium and the leader on the global stable isotope market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in chemistry, metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. TVEL also includes Rosatom integrators for additive technologies and electricity storage systems. Rosenergoatom, Joint-Stock Company is part of Rosatom Electric Power Division and one of the largest companies in the industry acting as an operator of nuclear power plants. It includes, as its branches, 11 operating NPPs, including the FNPP, the Scientific and Technical Center for Emergency Operations at NPPs, Design and Engineering as well as Technological companies. In total, 37 power units with a total installed capacity of over 29.5 GW are in operation at 11 nuclear power plants in Russia. Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC, Elektrostal) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fuel for nuclear power plants. The company produces fuel assemblies for VVER-440, VVER-1000, RBMK-1000, BN-600,800, VK-50, EGP-6; powders and fuel pellets intended for supply to foreign customers. It also produces nuclear fuel for research reactors. The plant belongs to the TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom.

Rosatom obtained a license for the first land-based SMR in Russia

On April 21, Rosenergoatom obtained a license issued by Rostekhnadzor to construct the Yakutsk land-based SMR in the Ust-Yansky District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
