That's the BEAUTY of Life :-)

Usually I can use my email acc for notices on comments to blogs that I've posted. But for some reason from home this is the only social site I can access. Prob cause this little thing I am using while mine in shop, idk? Can't get to fb either. I try to recall the ones I joined in on and go back, sorry again for delay! :))) Hope posts still can be placed. It always seems to be jealous fellas that do the negative articles. Seems that way to me, anyway :)

Bobbie Jean_2's picture

I'm here Blue - I'm here - Absolutely use my name!!! THANK YOU BLUE!!! :)

Bobbie Jean, still waiting on you.......they seemed to have changed the comment section over there since the last I looked too.
Give me a call, K?

~Low IQ Kid Rock Fan ---Yes--I fucking am.~
Continue on with your Ambassador Title to the Massengill Islands :-)

Good-bye."

I was newly pissed off again when I re-read this article. And then the comments---GRRRRRRRRR

bluesuedeshoe's picture

I sure will as long as I can use your name. If the comments are still open, they may be closed.

Bobbie Jean_2's picture

ps - thank you Thank You and THANK YOU BLUE, BLUE, BLUESUEDESHOE :))))

Bobbie Jean_2's picture

Hey Blue! How are you? supa dupa I hope!
If you would be so kind, can you post my comment attached to follow. I can't get on FB from the house for some reason and it's required to sign on social site to leave a comment. Please, Please :)))
Just short and simple, for the simple mind that wrote the article. Here it is:

I tried to see your point while reading the above article, but all I gathered was, "bla, bla, bla" and "I'm so jealous of that Successful Robert Ritchie aka Kid Rock" I don't know, I mean that's it right?

bluesuedeshoe's picture

Dunno, I saw a lot of pro Bob feedback. But I didn't check it regularly. So Gawker deleted all the positive comments? Turds.

1bbshirlee's picture

Yelp thats why I said its a loaded question.

MsBehavin's picture

Well--I was just "Chatty Cathy" in this thread last night---lol
I was wondering why no comments that didn't agree with the "author" weren't on there---
THANK YOU ANGEL :-) for clearing that up

This guy is a dick plain and simple.

KRSVal's picture

LOL Angel, he is a hater and a poser..Loser with Capital L
Altho he does have talent providing comedic relief--perhaps he can get a job with tosh.o??

When I said who cares what he thinks- I meant the guy is truly a pompous ass. It comes out in all aspects of his writing. He has no respect for America and no respect for anyone but himself. So this guy's opinion is the end all? I don't think so. People will see right through him. I did not say to not comment back at him. The problem is, you will never change this guys way of thinking. He's self absorbed. Anyone who starts an article complaining about having to think about soldiers on Memorial Day already sunk himself in the eyes of most readers.
I really miss the days of true journalism. Sorry, but that was what I was trained in; ethical and fair reporting. What is being passed as news in today's world is frankly, for lack of a better word, crap.

The chickenshit asshole is deleting any posts that dont agree with his opinion. I guess freedom of speech isnt something he supports either..

bluesuedeshoe's picture

Welp, sure think Bob's PR wagon should care what gawker posts. And as fans of Bob we should too. Over the years of watching, certain performers end up being bullied by the music press for stuff they let the last three "esteemed performers" pass on. It stinks, and they should be called on it.

1bbshirlee's picture

who cares what this BOZO thinks? Eww thats a loaded question...Human Arrogance...I care and is why I try to free myself from such....I do a pretty good job but keeping up with a Rock Star kinda messes it all up... (Damm yad think Id learn something,. oh I have and just like alot you have to sort through the B.S).

bluesuedeshoe's picture

Oh, and I should add Mellencamp joined and hawked FarmAid for years...

How is that any different than Bob chosing to dedicate his efforts to supporting the troops and Michigan recovery?

Guess my best advice to Bob on this one:

From another thread here:

mon, 06/04/2012 - 1:08pm — BLUESUEDESHOE
Just checked http://www.setlist.fm/. The two dates are up, but no info yet. Wish someone would add them, he's doing some new stuff on this Jim Beam tour, like Mellencamp's Pink Houses. Which for some reason, peeved the guy at gawker.com no end. LOL.
Funny because if you know Mellencamp's background....Johnny Cougar, managed by Tony DeFrieze, wealthy family background and childhood, first band Crepe Soul, freak band "White Trash" (google a pic of that band for a chuckle), etc., in his early days he was considered pretty much the way Bob is to some now. One of his record people was quoted in an article that John "would sell is grandmother for a hit." And another decade of work, and now Mellencamp is "sincere" compared to Bob. I love the music business, lol.

MSB: I used to go to that White Castle..small world!
As for the article: who cares what this BOZO thinks? Obviously he's an a$$ and no one I would even want to speak to, let alone read his opinion.

KRSVal's picture

@ MSB, I kinda read that comment on the News page as referring to the shit Bob got/gets for sampling...their loss

MsBehavin's picture

And last but not least--lol (sorry Cindy :-)
LATE one night ---when I was about 19 years old---working midnights at White Castle at Telegraph and Michigan Ave. with my room-mate and best Friend Geri----this HUGE British dude walks in (with 2 other huge British dudes :-)and wants a sack of White Castle Hamburgers----it took me about .5 seconds to realize that this was Lemmy from from Motorhead and the rest of Motorhead---lol
Geri grabs me and says "Do you know who that is?" I'm like yah---I know who it is :-)
We made their burgers---hoped they liked um :-) ~lol
With that---I am off to bed---I have a Dr.s appt early----taking a Unisom---otherwise---I won't sleep. HATE!!!!!!!!!!! going to the fucking Dr.s--

MsBehavin's picture

HE didn't have to say a thing---that is one sorry--jealous--pathetic--excuse for an "author".
I wouldn't have said shit to that piece of shit either. May his writings proceed his paths to wherever he's headed. How's that? And a lamp from me will cost. I don't like mean assholes. Period.

Happy Birthday Billy
Posted by Kid RockJune 03, 2012
My friend and engineer brought over a beat with "Wherewolves of London" looped over it and said "isn't this cool?" I thought it was but just kept noodling on my guitar as it played. I hit a "D" chord, than a '"C" followed by a "G"......!!!!!! Holy Shit! It was the the same progression as my favorite song of all time 'Sweet Home Alabama!' I thought I would do something that had not been done before by mashing the 2 songs up and writing an original melody and lyric over them. I had no idea the song would be a worldwide hit! I'm proud it was, despite what alot of sour puss's think, that I just stole a song, blah blah blah, if it were that easy, they would surely be doing it rather than talking shit about me! But besides all that, the thing I cherish most about that song and space in time is my old friend Billy Powell. He is the MOST underated piano player of all time, PERIOD. Not only was I able to tour with him and his little band Lynyrd Skynyrd!!!!!!!!!!, I was able to become friends with him. I can't exspress to you all enough of how great of a person this man was. When I was almost finished with "All Summer Long" I called Billy and told him what i had done and asked him if he would re play those incredible licks from the original song on my new tune. He went out of his way to drive from another city to my studio on a day off, walked in and played his heart out for the next few hours. My jaw was on the floor watching him play as well as everyone else's who was with us in my studio. I called him a few days later and asked where I should send payment for his services.....HE GOT MAD and said, "Bobby, were friends, that's what friends do for each other." he was offended i offered to pay him and refused it!!! What a beautiful soul and a true American treasure this man was and always will be. Billy would have turned 60 years old today. Happy Birthday my old friend,

LOL----Bob was actually was very diplomatic and cordial---and never even mentioned "ole dochebag's article"
That---is why I have nothing but TOTAL respect for the man. He said it---without saying it :-)
He didn't have to say "Go fuck yourself" literally ---it was said!!!!! with WAYY more class than the author---or his gaggle of commentating idiots ---could ever say. BEAUTIFUL :-)
Read it Blue :-) You WILL be impressed :-)
