    Kid Rock, Crow Lead Party At Comcast Center

    Since 1998, when he broke through to the mainstream with his head-rattling, rump-shaking explosion of rap-rock swagger, “Bawitdaba,’’ Kid Rock has shown remarkable staying power.

    Others may be better songwriters, singers, or rappers, but few artists work as hard and have as much fun as the relentlessly proud son of Detroit. Over the years Rock has shrewdly, and sincerely, refined his good-time sound to land comfortably at a spot where Bob Seger intersects with Run-DMC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and AC/DC. That’s a hell of a crossroads and Saturday night at Comcast Center, in front of one of the season’s loudest crowds, Rock worked it like the world’s most badass and excitable traffic cop.

    With the able aid of his crackling Twisted Brown Trucker Band, and with the occasional assistance of pole dancers and pyro, Rock sprinted through his catalog - from wriggly-browed raunch to heartfelt heartbreakers - with a natural-born sense of showmanship and the mischievous grin of a man who knows the party whereof he speaks.

I've been to six of Kid Rock's concerts and although all of them were amazing, this one was clearly the best. I had so much fun, sang every word, and even shed a tear when he sang "Care". Kid Rock puts on one of the greatest shows. He brings so much energy and makes sure the crowd is enjoying every minute of it. Awesome, awesome time! I'll never forget this one! LOVE YOU!

My son just turned 7 years old and he loves Bawitaba when we get in the car he says mama put it on and boy can he sing he rolls down the window and plays the air guitar and tears up the back seat. In the house he plugs in the headphones to his dads I pod and sits in the chair and plays it over and over it's a sight. We are taking him to the show to see him on the 13 we got Lawn seats but he is so excited this is his first concert I hope somehow he gets to meet Kid Rock it would make his life.

My only sadness is that my camera was lost after the show and I keep calling hoping someone turned it in....on the off chance that anyone who reads this found a little blue fujifilm finepix camera please please please turn it or at least the memory card into the Comcast Center. Thanks.

Awesome Show. Never disappointed in a KR show! Both Boston and Hartford shows were great. The energy you and TBT send out in concert is hard for any other musician to compete with. Love U!

Mr. Rock, We understand the concert with you and Mrs. Crow for July 23rd at the ND State Fair is cancelled because of flooding. Would you consider doing something outragous and crazy by moving the concert to Bismarck-Mandan (100 miles south)....North Dakotan's need our spirits lifted and you and Sheryl are the presciption! Take care, RAS

It was defintely a night to remember. I've been to my fair of shows and this was by far one of the best I've seen this man put on. I don't think I've ever rocked so hard in my life. Had great weather, great seats. It was BEYOND mind blowing. I swear I can still feel the pyro on my face.
