If you paid a lot of money for your tickets Jeff then you obviously bought them from a scalper/ticket broker..They rip everybody off, because they're in it for the money KID IS NOT..KID Rock and TBT do their very best to keep the tickets at a reasonable price.. Sorry to hear you we're disapointed by the length of his performance, but 1 1/2 hours of non stop rockin' hip hop country and soul music is about the norm for Kid.. Wish I could of taken your place Jeff cuz I would of had a blast, and yes at the end I would of probably wanted it to continue too, but not because I felt like I didn't get my monies worth but because I never want a Kid Rock party to stop...

I just read a review that said the Silver Springs show was 105 minutes long.

I'm with you Beckxy, I don't time the shows...Although they seem a lot longer when I'm drunk vs. sober!

It's probably harder to do a setlist for small clubs vs. his usual arena tours...Looking at some of the youtube videos it looks like they are using every trick they can except for the strippers and pyro!

Sorry you didn't have a good time Jeff. I've had bad experiences too at KR shows - but it's never been because of KR or TBT!

I'm curious what you were expecting?

He played Times Like These during the second encore in Atlanta. Kid Rock puts on the best show I have ever seen. I have never been disappointed, but I hate that you were.

The setlist seemed to be exactly what Bart put up for NYC.. I don't recall hearing 'Times like These' tho.. anyone else hear that song?

For Real ?? I thought the show was incredible !! I honestly didn't even check the time once.. nor did I check to see if they did enough songs to cover what I thought my money was worth.. I just knew my money was going to go to a very good cause.. so I don't understand how one could be so pissed off. Plus.. with presale and all.. we got really good seats at a very reasonable ticket value.. which back in the day.. I've spent way more to see a show then the 70 dollar ticket I spent for this show.

Thing is we were having so much fun that time wasn't of the essence. I didn't bring my stop watch.. and time them..lol. I thought they covered a ton of songs.. but had no clue on the time when we all left... perhaps it was the couple of drinks we had.. idk.. but the show was awesome imo

This is the setlist from the Fillmore in Silver Springs, MD from 72 hours earlier....I'm sure they didn't change it up much....If this is the setlist in Chicago - I'll be very happy and I've seen him 25+ times.

SJBOWMAN I dont know what shows you have been to but 45 minutes IS NOT the norm. Jeff 1 and a half hrs is a pretty standard set. Sorry you thought it was short but hey man time flys when your haveing fun. There are bands out there that play longer (Green day 2 1/2 hrs Foo Fighters 3 hr Goo Goo Dolls 2 hrs to name a few) and it would have been nice if Bob did more then the bare minnimum and gave you a longer show....I get that.

jeff_134's picture

jeff_134's picture

They played almost everything that They played in Atlanta---maybe someone (in the band) didn't feel good :-(
From experience---90 minutes on stage is a long ass time----
i've been a fan of this band for a LONG time, Jeff---and i can PROMISE You this--They give 10000% ALL of the time. Every time. The scalpers are the ones fucking the fans. When i bought tickets for Atl for the Care show show thru the Krc---the tickets were 49.50 each. And that was the very BEST KrTbt show that i have ever been to :-)
I feel so bad that You didn't have a GREAT experience :-(
Have You ever seen Them Live before?

jeff_134's picture

yes
