Better Off Solo?:
Name | New Career | Comments & Submitter Name |
| "Ted Nugent" | "Uncle Ted dropped the Duke's, and promptly put together one of the top grossing acts in the mid to late "70's. Sadly, it appears time has caught up with the "Motor City Madman", as he now spends entirely too much time preaching to people who just want him to shut up and play." | - princejellyfish |
