TED NUGENT To Perform With AMBOY DUKES At DETROIT MUSIC AWARDS

April 10, 2009

Gary Graff of Billboard.com reports that Ted Nugent will reunite with his first recording band, the AMBOY DUKES, on April 17 to receive a Distinguished Achievement Award at the annual Detroit Music Awards. The group also intends to play, marking the first performances of the "Journey to the Center of the Mind" band since 1968.

"This is a great moment to celebrate," Nugent tells Billboard.com. "I got the word about (the award) and said, 'Well, of course it must be done. It's as proper as tomorrow's sunrise.' I immediately reached out to John (Brake, vocalist) and Andy (Solomon, keyboards and saxophone) and started tracking down people."
