I got one fer ya-- I woke up from a dream a Devil without a cause had a dream of a black chick ,white guy in the background i heard the Party Ode.Today im feeling like a Gangster from the Oldschool.
First...I'd like to say Kudo's with much respect to Kid Rock and TBT for showing their gratitude & appreciation to their loyal fans aboard the Chillin The Most Cruise. I must admit I was surprised to read the email I received from Sixthman, stating that Kid Rock & TBT would be meeting, greeting, and taking a photo with each and every fan aboard the Chillin Cruise. I was surprised in particular that Kid Rock himself would be doing such, as over the years from reading (watching) manyKid Rock relatedmedia articles, interviews, as well as fan club posts...have drawn the conclusion that Kid was reserved and shy so to speak, with meeting fans, especially in suchlarge numbers, or among crowds of fans.
Yet again I find myself in amazement of what considerate, appreciative, and respectful people Kid and each member of TBT are. No doubt it will take hours for them to accomplish the goal of meeting & taking a photo with approximately 1800 admiring fans aboard the ship. I didn't think I could gain any more respect for Kid & TBT than what I already held, but I was wrong...my respect for them as a fan continues to grow with each year I've been a loyal fan, which is a decade long now.
That said, I've had the honor and privilege of meeting & chatting some with Kid Rock in the past, and there really is nothing I can think of to say to him that is ofgreat importance or significance. Therefore, the thought occurred to me earlier this evening...of the many fan clubthreads I've read over the years relating to what fans would say to Kid Rock in particular, but TBT as well...if given the opportunity. I know there are many fans of which would love to be aboard the Chillin The Most Cruise, that for whatever reason are unable to. I wish we all could be aboard, however...that is in a perfect world.
With reflecting upon those past discussions related to meeting Kid Rock and what one would say to him...I thought of starting this discussion thread here at the fan club...offering each of you not able to go on the cruise, a chance to say something to Kid Rock in particular, but also TBT. My idea is for you to post your message to Kid and TBT in this thread, please keep all replies to the point, not replying to one anothers posts in this thread...as I intend to print the entire thread and hand it to Kid Rock personally, and will take additional copies to TBT also, assuming there may be messages for the band as well.
I have heard that Kid Rock keeps all things given to him by his fans, and assume that will be the case with the printed thread of personal fan messages to him. I assume he will at some point read through all the messages when appropriate, possibly after the cruise and in his more leisurely alone time.
So here's your chance my fellow loyal Kid Rock fans...say what you want to Kid Rock and TBT, andI give you my wordit will be personally delivered to them by me when I'm given my 'fan' opportunity aboard the Chillin Ship to meet Kid Rock and TBT...no middle ground, no mail sorting, etc....rather your message hand delivered in person by me, and you are assured it will be receivedby the man and his band directly. :)
I intend to print this thread Tuesday evening some time, as I fly to Tampa Wednesday morning the 28th.

Mr. Ritchie,
Take good care of my girl Connie she needs a fun vacation more than anyone I know.
Thanks,
Your Favorite Phyll
Mr. Robert Ritchie,
My name is Jack, I live in Ontario, Canada, about an hour west of Toronto.
I have been a fan since 99. You have awesome dedicated fan base and this website is proof of that. Your music and I have grown together over the years. I am a business owner and have modelled you in various areas, most of all your ability to do what you feel is right regardless of what other people think, and your ability to express all your different tastes and musical talents without giving a !@#$ what people think. Especially the team you put together, to execute your vision "The Twisted Brown Trucker Band". I had the pleasure of meeting James Murphy, and Freddie Beauregard after one of your shows, great guys, it was nice to see them take the time to mingle with fans. I have seen all of your Toronto Shows and when you Displayed the 1/2 American and 1/2 Canadian flag and wore the Canadian hockey Jersey at your last concert here, that was very impressive and well supported by all. You have the best live show that I have ever seen and look forward to seeing you in Toronto July 21, with Bon Jovi. Thank you and T.B.T. for keeping it real. We are patiently awaiting for your next album. So hurry up! lol God Bless!
oooopsy - I thought the cruise was this wk end.... thx Connie Jo for the opportunity.....
? 1 - To Kid Rock - " Have all your dreams come true?"
? 2 To Stephanie of TBT - " Was has been the most difficult moment being on road as a lady?"
?3 Jason - " You really made all the difference to some folks... do ya know that? - Well, God does :) "
?4 - All TBT - "Where and how did so much talent come together as one?"
gotta go.... watchin pretty woman... one of my favorite parts... R Gere, takes here to the store where the girls were mean to her .... and makes them eat .... welll you know...
be safe and have fun!
God Bless :)
Dear KR and T.B.T,
All I can say is thank you for everything. Your music has helped me through rough times. 2009 was a tough year for me personally. I was injured at work and found myself nervous about what would happen in the future (like trying to find a job in Michigan). I found happiness and comfort in your music and baseball; I am a die-hard Tigers fan. Seeing you on Opening Day with the Tigers was something I will not forget. I suddenly realized everything might be ok. Everyone was cheering and having fun and all my problems were gone. Then you performed at Comerica Park and introduced the song "In Times Like These" and it hit home. I want to thank you for everything you do for Detroit and Michigan. You are a hometown hero and even in rough times in Michigan you are still here rooting on the Wings, Tigers and Pistons and randomly showing up at artist shows (Bon Jovi, Martina ect.) Thank you for your music and just staying you and keeping it real.
Katie

Dear KR--
Your music means so much to me and to so many others. It cheers me like none other. I am amazed that you give so much of yourself to your fans and your community; I wish that I had the opportunity to tell you how much its appreciated.
I hope you find peace, joy, & privacy for yourself & your family, too.
Cheers, Jade
Dear Stefanie--
I'm a huge fan. I wish you could be up front more, so to speak, so I could see you more often. But I do love watching you beat those drums! I also wish you much peace, joy & privacy... but I also wish you gave more interviews (or hung out in my neighborhood in Brooklyn) so I could learn more about you!! :-) You keep on rockin'!
Cheers, Jade
Bob, TBT and everyone involved,
I wanted to say thank you for all the joy you have brought into my life. Your music has been there when there was no one else was. Your music has been with me while walked away 90 pounds (no one else wanted to go, lol). I've never been to a concert but you are an important part of my life. I love music and Kid Rock and TBT go everywhere I go. For over 10+ years now. It's funny. When given the opportunity to say what I really want to say, I find myself at a loss. All the hard times, and all the good times, you've been a part of that and I couldn't have done it without you. When I didn't think I could take another step, pop on the music and off I go...That's the truth from my heart.
Thank you...hugs

Rock,
The woman handing you these letters is one of the greatest fans and promoters of the band you could have. Shes had a really tough year and deserves a great time on this cruise..... Make it so, Please.
We are so Proud to be Kid Rock fans. We appreciate everything you do for our warriors overseas and their families at home.
On a personal note, Please know that your music helped me get thru My chemotheraphy and Radiation this last year for Breast cancer. And with American Bad Ass playing loudly in the Cancer center, I think we picked up a few new fans. lol
Love and Respect
KidRockAngel

Dear Kid,I got to meet you in AC when I was standing in the FRONT ROW of the Gypsy Bar for the Wedding ceremony Ministered by Rev Run.I just wanted to Let you know PERSONALLY that I did EVERYTHING I COULD AND THEN SOME to be there with you on your cruise and when I discovered that It it wasn't going to work out for me thru NO FAULT OF MY OWN,I took it so hard that I was REALLY beating the shit out of myself for a few days over it.All I can HOPE for is that you CAN have another journey like this so that I CAN AND WILL JOIN YOU on your NEXT ADVENTURE as well as being able to plan your next cruise IF it does exists ACCORDINGLY.I AM REALLY HOPING THAT IT WILL.THANKS SO MUCH for taking the time to read my E-mail and PLEASE thank Connie Jo for taking the time to REALLY HELP those Many fans of yours who CANNOT be there for one reason or another.Sincerly yours,Greg P.(grego11743@hotmail.com)
Dear Kid, I can't believe I missed out on such an opportunity to be privleged enough to be on a cruise ship with you and your band. I'm actually sea sick just thinking about how much fun it would be to be there! Maybe someday I will get to meet you again on solid backstage ground or possibly another cruise. All in all I met you in 2004 and I cannot find the photo I got to take with you. I'm so bummed out, I hope I can get another one someday since you are my hero. I feel like Joe Dirt right now! Thanks for fullfilling alot of my wildest dreams, just by being you. You are a true fantasy for me and I hope you stick around FOREVER!!! I can FEEL IT. Let's face it....you look good and we can see it, you sound good and we hear it, it's marketed right so we buy it......and since it's real we FEEL IT! Thanks for grabbing something deep in side of me and pulling it out for every one to see! And ya know what? They get scared too!! I love it! Thank you so much! Until we meet again, I'll keep on dream'in............Luv, Adena Dodds xoxoxoxooxx and lots of laughs! Peace Out and Rock On!
