Hangin down by the RIVERBEND, singing our favorite songs!!!!! Saw you in Cinci and loved the concert! Celebrated my birthday for the 4th time with you because I love your music and the energy that flows when you perform on stage! Loved the opening band and Sheryl too. I'd like to do the cruise but don't think I could be that far away from my son who has speacial needs.(He loves your music too!) Thanks for an awesome night. I got that "this is the perfect place to be on a hot summer night" feeling and will be back next year to throwdown with you again!!!!

The show in Cincinnati was GREAT! Thanks Kid, I don't know why it took me so long to see you perform, but I would do it again. To see Kid Rock a Sheryl Crow perform is chemistry in motion. I took the same friend that I took to the Segar concert in GR MI, and she said another fantastic concert! Riverbend is a great place for a concert and well worth the drive from GR Michigan.

Was @ 2nd show, Summerfest. LOVED THE SHOW! ~ HOTT ... HOTTTERRRR ...... EXPLOSIVE ! ~ BEST YET ! ... Reviews from Milw 'Show the LOVE'! YOU WERE The FIREWORKS! ... OUT OF THIS WORLD! ~ THUMBS ALL THE WAY UP!!! The ENCORE WAS SPECTACULAR !!! - suggestions: Please review Purple Sky's 'sound' & When you spoke to the crowd, it was hard to make out what you were saying. (Sec.1-Row BB-Seat #1) and most importantly .. Please release entire show as a DVD so we can make our FOURTH of JULY CELEBRATION (on the 3rd) with YOU ... a "FAMILY TRADITION" !!!

So I worked this concert and lemme tell ya after seeing all of the different acts come through over the past 2 years I have never seen a crowd so hyped and into the show like this one! I mean the crowd was so into the music! I stepped out of backstage for just a brief moment and felt the rush of energy from the fans which was so powerful it made my dreads blow back. AWESOME KID!! I hope you come back to the venue real soon because the crew, the management and not to mention the music were all amazing!! -Lisa K.

My daughter and I were at the awesome show in Cincinnati! We love your shows - catch you always in Louisville and Cincinnati and then wherever money allows. You and the TBT are the best in the business. Your fans are pretty cool, too. We've met some great people at your concerts. Keep it real! Keep it Kid Rock! Thanks for all you do - stay safe.

This was my first Kid Rock concert and it was AWESOME!!! We were in the 4th row and I couldn't have been happier!! Such an awesome entertainer!!! I can't wait to see you in Detroit!!

What a great show in Cincinnati. We purchased the Made in Detroit Package for the ultimate experience and we were not disappointed. Had second row seats in front of center stage, what a great view. Our five year old niece is such a fan as well. She asked before the concert if we had an extra seat for her. Her dad, who attended the concert with us, gave her the swag bag which she carried around all day long. We have joked for sometime that we knew your youngest fan. When she was very little we use to play the first part of Cowboy and she would just laugh as hard as she could. Her latest favorite is All Summer Long, she says it never gets old.

Great show, Bob. This was my wife and I's fifth show and you never cease to disappoint. You're by far the best entertainer we've ever seen in concert and it's not even close. This is the reason we continue to buy tickets anytime you come within a couple hours of us. Keep it up. We're looking forward to your next tour and we'll be there to see you next time you're around Lexington, KY (would be awesome to have a show at Rupp Arena! *hint* *hint*)

HEY KID, SHERYL AND BAND~ I CAN NOT EXPRESS WHAT A GREAT AND AMAZING PERFORMANCE FRIDAY NIGHT WAS. THE BAND IS OBVIOUSLY POLISHED AND WELL EXPERIENCED AND NATURALLY GIFTED. KID, YOUR VOICE WAS STRONGER THAN EVER, CLEAR AND BEAUTIFUL. I TRIED TO SEND THIS POST APPROXIMATELY 11 AM SUNDAY FROM MY BLACK BERRY AND IT NEVER WORKS FROM MY BLACK BERRY! THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE 3RD POST OTHERWISE. WE WERE ON THE NET LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CONCERT TO ATTEND! I WILL NOT SEE YOU THOUGH UNLESS TIX ARE FREE OR I HAVE VIP TIX LIKE SATURDAY NIGHT IN CINCI. 10TH ROW WAS TRULY INCREDIBLE, WE LOVE THE SWAG BAG AND OTHER GOODIES AS WELL. BUT WE KEEP TRYING FOR 1ST ROW UNTIL ONE OF US, (YOU AND I), ARE JUST "DONE". I TURNED FN' 40 ON MEMORIAL DAY! WE LOVED THE FIRE, THE WAY YOU RAN OUT ON STAGE, THE WAY YOU PERFORMED "CARE", (NOT A DRY EYE ANYWHERE HARDLY). YOUR MESSAGE ABOUT THE TROOPS AND THAT HUMIDITY/HIGH TEMP. OF 90 SOMETHING. LOST 7 POUNDS FROM DANCING LIKE A FOOL FOR 3 HOURS STRAIGHT!! I SPOTTED BAND MEMBERS THAT TOOK SEATS BEHIND US BEFORE THE CONCERT AND AS NONCHALANTLY AS I COULD STAND TO BE, I ASKED FOR AUTOGRAPHS AND~ YES, HUGS. IF IT OCCURS TO YOU, PLEASE PASS ON THE APPRECIATION, (AND AWESOME ADRENILINE RUSH), REGARDING THAT AMAZING MOMENT IN TIME. I, (WE), CAN BARELY WAIT TO SEE YOU AGAIN. MY 3 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS ANGRY ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO GO...SHE WILL SOME DAY. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO. LOVE AND PEACE, ALWAYS. XXOO TO ALL OF YOU.

Absolutely loved the show and feel so blessed to have been there to be part of it! It was SO hot, but you kept up the performance because you are the MAN! Love ya!

Third Show I've been to this year, and they've all been excellent. I love your ability to "rock any format" and the acoustic version of Purple Sky was great. Only thing that was a bit disappointing was not seeing EMSP. It was great seeing you and Sheryl together, maybe the second coming of Johnny and June? Keep on Rockin'!

I loved the show and I have seen you everytime you come to Cincinnati!And will continue too!!The only thing about the show I didn't like was at the end your fans were trying to catch a glimpse off you leaving and were being treated pretty bad by event staff.Being yelled at for only walking on the grass pretty ridiculous but hey it is what it is!!Great show GOD BLESS SATURDAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Loved the acoustic version of Purple Sky and loved the way you mixed up All Summer Long, but REALLY missed Jessie on Care.

The show in Cinci was, as always, fantastic!!! You keep it real and we feel it...you are the best. I have never seen a better performer, ever and I never miss it, if you get close enough..It was freak'in hot in a lot of ways.lol..thanks for the party..see you next time...ROCK THE SUMMER!!!!

I loved the concert! I also saw you in peoria last feb and honestly that show would be impossible to beat!! I loved the cincy concert but I liked care better when you sang it with your back up singer.She did a great job.Everyone around me thought you were going to bring Sheryl out then and that would work. I missed the light up pimp coat but I know it was to damn hot.It was great seeing you and sheryl sing together.I'm so glad I saw that!You changed the show enough I didn't feel like I was seeing a rerun of peoria. It was a great night and the crowd was having a blast right a long with you.Thanks for being you!

It was AWESOME of course!!! Loved the mix of old an new songs. Worth every penny!!!

I had tickets to attend but could not because my son who is in the Air Force is being deployed to Iraq and came home one last time before he was deployed. I'm terribly upset I missed the show but I'm grateful to see my son one more time before he leaves. I know you support the troops and understand how I must have been torn. I hope it was a good concert and maybe I can make it to another show. Unfortunately, you won't be too many places close by so I guess that may not be possible. Upset in southern Indiana

Ive been to several shows. And Bobs ability to put together such an awesome show where he has to satisfy fans of all of the stages of his career is the most amazing thing to me. I started out with Devil without a Cause, like most. But I ...went back and jammed to the early stuff, Grits Sandwiches etc. and I can honestly say I love it all. But some don't some people are there to see the Sherryl Crowe duets and Born Free stuff, we all got an amazing show. The only notable omission was "Devil Without a Cause" we miss Joe C!! "Fu&@in 40" was amazing! Bob knows "Somebody's gotta feel this" and he made sure we all did. Thanks for an electric performance. See you in Indy and on the Cruise!!
