Actually, it's Derrick St. Holmes.  He and Ted had a falling out, which was too bad, because Derrick was/is a terrific singer.  They kind of patched things up a couple of years ago, but it was past their prime. 

I guess that I've seen Ted some 14 or 15 times since 1977, solo or with Damn Yankees.

Florida aint in the south.Another country,at least below the pan handle.

*Ding* thank you for playing but the correct answer is.....

The Northerners (Union Army) were referred to as Yankees during the Civil War. Another term would be carpetbaggers.

I didn't mention the state of Florida in my response ;)

the one ive heard is... one comes to visit ...the other comes and stays.    im the latter...been here 30 yrs

This  is  correct! 


Though yes, Damn Yankee is a group also.  I actually saw them in concert.  Not too bad!  One of their famous songs was "Can you take me higher"  Other than that, I don't know what else was a hit with them. LOL

Cat Scratch Fever.

Naw, is it?  I think it was Ted Nugent.
