Thank you for sharing a post of someone bitching. I love it when people bitch.
Re: NOT HAPPY > Ted Poley Blasts Airlines (again) in FB Rant Tells Readers Flying is Miserable vows to Cut Back on Fly D
Dude, ok it sucks - But own it.......
1. Plan on getting there 8 hours b/4 show
2. Only someone who is "old" is going to complain about flying somewhere to literally work 1.5 hours max AND get paid.
3. If you're late multiple times this year, it's b/c you can't manage a calendar - Again, see #2 above.
Just WOW !!!................

“I’d rather drive my bus”
Ted Poley doesn’t scream, I made tour bus money….hahahahaha
If he’s fighting for space in an overhead, he’s flying economy Get a credit card for the airline. Priority boarding, no hassle getting overhead space, miles to pay for future flights, and I get upgraded 75% of the time.
He’s lucky he actually gets fly dates.

I think there are 2 Ted Poley's because I've met him a few times and he was super cool and always smiling, Mr. Happy Go Lucky.
The keyboard kicking Ted and the online ranting Ted is not really him. At least his last airline post had a great quote, something about how the crying baby still had that fresh vagina smell. That comes from a place of rage.

So... are you saying an imposter ran up on stage in Lima Peru and kicked over the keyboards, twice?
And, another imposter is posting all of the lunatic ranting posts on his social media pages?

No, I'm saying he's bi-polar. Or split personality. But that keyboard kick in Peru was insane, dude.

The first Danger Danger album is a masterpiece. IMO
I always wanted to meet and see Ted perform. After all this, he seems unstable. He should be appreciative anyone wants to fly him out to play!

How much $ could "Ted Poley Sings" generate on a yearly basis? Outside of this board & a small amount of South Americans, is anyone looking for Ted Poley? I would think he would be more appreciative for the gigs he does get.

Ted needs move to Laguna Beach and play Tiki Bar in OC every weekend
No reason to get on a plane again
He could go visit his Metal Edge Tuff buddy
and complain about the traffic live on IG
Maybe take show on the road to Big Sir
Maybe do Big Bear show during Christmas season ..driving in the snow to the show would be fun IG live event

You should have seen or experienced ALL of the other stuff that went on... for days leading up to and during the stay in Peru!
It was bad...

The biggest Danger Danger I remember in LA was opening for Alice Cooper at the Pantages Theatre (2500).
The little bit I have seen here suggests he is deeply depressed.

Ted was picked to play Rainbow Bash..only the elite get picked. That plane ride must have been good one
I remember concert review of Danger Danger /Alice Cooper at Pantages in Metal Edge.
I saw the article then played Danger Danger cd on my boom box with cd player…so much fun Danger Danger has brought to my life
Naughty Naughty could be voted greatest video ever and I would be ok with it

Yes. Mainly Spirit Airlines.
Okay, so this sounds like an ill informed consumer / flyer.
I am on the airlines side on this one
I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. These two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

thats on him then, he should request in his rider a list of acceptable carries and not list any discount carriers. Promoters will cheap out wherever they can

Re: NOT HAPPY > Ted Poley Blasts Airlines (again) in FB Rant Tells Readers Flying is Miserable vows to Cut Back on Fly D
I didn't find his rant all that rant like to be honest. It was all pretty much standard airline bitching.
I'm not in a band, but I do write books, and do a lot of live events to promote those. One trick I've learned is to NEVER let the gig book your flight. Most companies/groups/etc. want to go the cheapest route possible which means bad airlines and awful flight times. Book your own stuff, pick your airline(s), get the miles so you can upgrade, pick your seat, and pick your airport. It's still not always going to be a smooth experience, but it's rarely a disaster.

His nickname cause of this is "Bi-Poley"

Spirit is exactly who I was referring to.

For a better flying experience, he could book an upgraded seat in business or first class on a quality airline. This, along with noise canceling devices, will help maximize his personal space and minimize interactions with other passengers.
Ted Poley's last few rants make him sound like a cantankerous curmudgeon.

He should just stay home and start a Steel Panther tribute band! Not like Danger Danger is making much money in 2025 and beyond.

So i'm guessing this is the reason why the rest of the band is doing The Defiants with Paul Laine. They could've put the albums out as Danger Danger but it's possible Ted owns some of the rights to the name.

Nope!
Bruno Ravel & Steve West own Danger Danger... and they also wrote those original early era hit songs too!
