    Full moon and all
    just because says (15 Aug '11)

    This was only our second show this year but the first time for VIP.  Can't  imagine going back to regular seats again.  Being able to see him smile up close and not just on the big screen was worth the money.  We had such an awesome time.  We got downtown a little late but made it to the block party and got our BADASS beer.  Then back to hotel to freshen up and meet up with family. The Friday night show was perfect  full moon and all!  I am so grateful to the man for creating these venues for us to make memories and share the good times.  Saturday morning we headed over to Eastern Market and bought some goodies, yum.  I love the sights and smells of a fresh market.  Had to wait for slab of ribs (for my hubby)  from street vendor to complete our weekend.  Spent Sunday looking at photos and video.  It was just the best time.  The last couple of years have been rough so it was really nice to spend time with family and friends just lettin' loose and having fun.

@AJAY I thought I read in one of the articles after Comerica that they were filming both nights for the dvd and it was to come out around christmas. Would make a nice gift.

PKL Yes, poor poor Bob!

Wonder if BOB feels like a cheap piece of HAM sometimes I bet he thinks SURE thier men take these ladies to my show I take my shirt OFF and help THEM get Laid all I get is to walk backstage WRINGING with sweat and a fresh shirt handed to me...POOR BOB...winks.

RSMS: I'm going to take a sign to Allegan that says "Take It Off!!" so I make sure we get a shirtless shot or two...:)

You guys are pretty new to the camera take in deal i see. I been doing this for years now. Most places you don't even have to haggle with them they let ya. Long as it isn't pro gear. If it is pro gear you gotta have a press pass. I take mine in even when they are banned. I smuggle it in. I can't tell you how or some asshat might catch me the next time.

AND you have video on almost every digital camera. I usually record 1 song. Usually one that i like best by the artist. That is why i like it when they announce the next song prior to it starting. I don't do a whole show as that would be totally wrong.

Old Kid Rock still don't have a live DVD. I might have to remedy that and go to a bootleg sight that pretty much has bootleg live shows you can d/l. I would rather have last tour bootlegs though. With LS and Black Stone Cherry. We see...I keep waiting for it to be announced that he has a live DVD coming out and yet nothing.....Heard a nasty rumor he was filming up in Canada then nothing else past that...

No, no pics, Comerica said I could bring in my flip video, but no, I couldn't tape anything, the security warned me they would take the camera, we put it away
which is fine, just wish I brought in my camera which would have been allowed, but no big deal. Look forward to seeing your pictures.

Thanks. I put up our three best photos.

I will try to post pictures soon.

No, no, you're not a moron, I said it too. Just didn't want to steal someone elses thunder. Gotta give credit where it's due.
Did you get great pictures or video with those seats? We got some good some not so good. My husband took video of this girl in front of us dancing (mostly her butt). As we were watching it he keeps sayin' "I really wasn't trying to record this" (her). And the funny part is I know he wasn't recording her on purpose cause he fumbled all night with that camera. Finally by the end of the show we had all the settings right. Oh well, I have my memories :)

no prob-I'm cool with it. Wish I would have met y'all. DEFINITELY need a congregation booth!!!!
Had a blast all weekend and counting down to Raleigh (going with a girlfriend)!!!!! WHOO HOO!!!!

KRLO's picture

Fine I admit it I am a complete moron. Mrs. Cedars and RSMS, I apologize.

just because's picture

Well, can't really take credit for KRC booth idea either. I think it was RSMS who mentioned it first on another thread or maybe Mrs. Cedars. Anyway, good idea!

@420 and @jJust Because, I did get my posts mixed up, and I apologize.

420allday's picture

We were in b row 7 15-16 but Nucleardynamics did not show up. So we were able to move into 17-18.
I like the idea about the booth, although i don't want to take credit for that. That idea was from JUST BECAUSE. Maybe you got our post mixed up.lol I am already booked on the cruise and can't wait.

KRLO's picture

@420, we were section D row 5 seats 1 and 2, peed my pants when I knew for sure we were right next to the catwalk. Your idea for a KRC booth is excellent, would have been great at the block party. Maybe next year if he does Pine Knob, I'll make an unofficial one. Yes I am feeling let down, my feet and calves are still sore. Hope you get on the cruise, we were booked for last year and had to cancel 2 days before, nothing serious, just got blindsided w/ a bill we didn't expect. Boo Hoo, but the refund money bought our VIP tkts. Won't be able to do it this year, 3 kiddies in college. Hate the money crunch, wish money trees were for sale, because my kids sure are convinced there is one growing!! Oh well.

@PKL Would love to see that moon :)

@KRLO Good for you, standing your ground. Where were your seats again? We were D row 24, seats 7&8. We were like 5 or 6 people away from the corner of catwalk. I've never had seats so good. Looked for a sign or black hat with name to meet any of you but didn't see any. It would be cool to have a KRC stand. Any of you feeling that let down like you get after vacation ends? Like now what to look forward to. Would like to go to Allegan but don't know if we can fit it in. We wanted to try going to MI Fest at MIS. Not sure if we'll do either. I got on waitlist for cruise but don't have anything saved up yet. Just too much fun not enough money! Story of my life.

Wish I could have met everyone also, knew there would be an issue when my hubby's brothers met us. Love them lots but they simply can't make a decision. Brother one... Lets go do event A, Brother two, no I think event B will be more fun, Brother one, Well that's too much money for event B. The final straw came when they suggested going to another bar near the old Tiger Stadium site. I looked at them and almost imploded. I yelled at them, usually we just laugh at them, Told them in no uncertain terms that this was my weekend, we weren't doing anything they suggested and they could come to the block party or stay I did not give a F, needless to say, they came to the party and had a blast, and followed my instructions like good brothers in law's should.
