Anyone who attended the first two shows in Saginaw, MI, the band and me would love to hear your input....what ya liked, what ya thought we could of done without, songs you liked or songs we didnt play you would like to hear.

43 also feels like 39:) I'd love to be able to provide some constructive criticism regarding your live performance, but looks like you don't plan on touring on the west coast...or do you? Any plans to come to Southern CA? San Diego, specifically?

I haven't made it up to Michigan in a couple of months, but I've got plans for several of your shows closer to my right now home. ;) I've got at least 98 different Kid songs and collaborations on my iPod. I'd love to see Prodigal Son on your set list since it's my all-time favorite and it's just such an amazing song. Is your Loretta Lynn Tribute of I Know How on your set list? I love that song and bought the cd as soon as I could! I do have a request specifically for the Bridgestone in Nashville because it's where I sat through my first NHL game in celiac misery. I'd LOVE to hear When It Rains in that building for that reason. I'll be back there for the Wings on the 5th and you on the 18th! Can't wait for February! I've also got tickets to the YUM! in L-ville for the week in between. P.S. My Mom is coming to Evansville with me for your show and really wants to hear Run Off To LA. It's the song that got her hooked on you in the first place and she loves it!

Change nothing! The Saturday Saginaw show was fantastic and best concert ever. We had so much fun! P.S. Lansing would love to see you do Common Ground though! You should consider it this July or next Summer.

Another KooL thing I purchased several years back from The Who @ Arena at Harbor Yard in BPT, CT, it's cd/dvd of that exact show I attended. They do it for all of their shows. U can buy CD or DVD or COMBO options online of the show U would like to purchase. U can pick any show U want, I chose the one I attended, but I think it's a really good idea! I hope U will consider it for UR shows too. :)

My sister got me tickets for Christmas and was the best Christmas present I got!! You never disappoint!!! Your shows are always amazing and have never found a reason to complain. Thank you for such a good show! The only thing I would have liked of course for it to be longer! :) Nothing was bad with the show, I love the old music and the new music! Your stage presence is amazing! Again thank you for a great Christmas present!!! Thanks for always thinking of your home state and spoiling us!!! Hope to see you again really soon!

My husband and I went to the Friday show and was the best I've seen! Although, our view was slightly obstructed....side stage couldn't see the video playing.......we were still blown away! We don't get out together much and he would say (he's quiet) it was WELL WORTH the money! Cant wait to try and see you again...with better seats!! Would loved to hear Only God Knows Why, but there is so many to choose from and I'm sure you mixed them up for the other shows? Jamey Johnson is also one of my faves and could've listened to him longer too. That means we would've been listening into the next day and so on! Great job with a lot of great decent people!! Tons of people I know all agree!

Thanks for such a good time, truly the best concert I have ever been to and at 46, that's a lot. You really know how to reach the audience and entertain, not just sing. It was a great show and I will be attending next time you are in town. Great job, love you! Sheryl in Saginaw

Was at the Ford Field show. Liked the old mix where you even threw in some "yodelin in the valley". Like that you threw it back to the roots. Only thing I didn't really like was that with all the thanks you gave to everyone from your parents, to Kracker to the band, you never mentioned Joe C. I think that just some sort of gratitutde in his memory would have been nice. Just a missed point of the night in my opinion. Thanks for the great entertainment!!!

And holynsmokes, Sheryl Crow should ALWAYS be there! Do a double show. That would be so cool cuz she is one of the coolest chick rockers, and you, well, can't say enough how much I dig you. I loved when she jumpednyour bones and yourbdancing together. Wish it were me! Gayle

Attended the concerts on the 22nd and the 15th. Loved them both and can't wait to see you again in Toledo!!! All of the song choices were great!!! As a member of the military, I love that you save "Born Free" to the end. It was awesome having Anita Baker sing the national anthem at Ford Field and is too bad that can't be included in every concert since you always inspire others to think more about the great country we live in. Thank you for what you do for the troops and Detroit!! You are a great American! Everyone around me also loved the comment about the Badass Beer and reduced price on Saturday. I believe that we all tried some and liked it...a lot! We appreciate that you look out for us by trying to price your goods/tickets fairly. Also liked the extended stage to the sides in Saginaw. I ended up with 2nd row seats when you/the band came out to the side platform on Saturday which was a very, very nice surprise. The hard work is absolutely noticed, and everyone I saw left smiling from ear to ear. It's an amazing concert packed full of energy. I can't think of another performer that I would want to see 3 times a year...let alone 3 times in 11 days! My hard earned dollars were well spent!! Can't wait until Wednesday!

Hello and Happy Belated Birthday! I'm an elementary teacher from Nebraska and unfortunately don't get to many of your shows. The school district kind of frowns on teachers missing school days to go to out of state concerts since we're supposed to be educating the youth of our future and all that. ;) Just wanted to tell you I appreciate your incredible talent and music and hope you get back to Omaha some time soon. I'd love to see you in concert again! Best wishes for a successful tour!

Last night was amazing!!!! You and your band put on one hell of a show as well as Jamey and Ty. We have been to several of your shows before, but this was by far the best! I love how you shared your 40th with us and when you sang you were singing with all your heart and soul!!! You are an Amercian Bad Ass, but you are so humble and caring. I'm still running on adrenaline from last night! As far as the song selection we would love to here ALL of them, but guess that's not feasible :) It was great and I wouldn't change a thing!!! Keep Real, We LOVE you and your whole gang~

I was there last night and at Ford(y) field last week and both show was awesome as always :) I liked the set but would really have liked to have heard Purple Sky last night. I love that song. Loved all the old school stuff. Had the pleasure of meeting Jimmy and Jason at Damon's and gotta say they where pretty awesome. You guys rock. Keep on Keepin on :)

Can't wait for you to hit Louisville (Louieville, Louaville, Lull-vull) in three weeks - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do "Cocky" - great song that epitomizes your public persona. You are such a brillant businessman - "a million dollar talent and a ten-cent brain" my ass! You put on a fabulous show; it'll be awesome whatever you decide to perform. Wish I could talk to you; you're way deeper than most people know. So glad you didn't become a car salesman!!! Belated happy birthday to you - it just gets better and better... : ) Love, Gina

Amazing concert (as usual!!) last night in Saginaw Bob!! Drove through horrible snowstorm from Chicago to see you and it was all worth it!! I just want to say that I appreciate all the hard work & dedication you & the band put into making each and every show an amazing event for those of us in the audience. Your hard work shows in the quality of the performances. Just wanted to make sure you knew that it didn't go unnoticed. :-) I have never been disappointed with any of your performances and this one was no exception!! One of the best "signatures" of your performances is how engaging you are with the audience. As long as you continue with that (which I know you will because that is who you are), you can pick the songs/arrangements that you enjoy playing because your fans enjoy seeing you having fun!! Can't wait to see even more shows and some "down time" on the cruise!! Happy 40th Bob!!
