I am a huge fan but usually spend most of my money on my kids. I am finally spending a little on myself and going with a girlfriend to my first Kid Rock concert in March in Atlanta and me and my husband are going on the cruise this year. First time we're going anywhere without the kids in about 15 years. I would love to hear ya'll do the more bluesy demo version of Care Live. It's my favorite!

I was at the Friday show and thaught it was awesome, as always. I have been fortunant enough to see you multiple times and have never been disappointed. I love the fact you play a little from every CD. Bawitdaba is one you have to keep though and I loved fuckin forty. I especially like the fact that the Dow Event Center is only a 15 min drive back to town leaving enough time to still make it to the bar after the show, so please continue making Saginaw a stop on your tours. I must saw I was a little, no alot, disappointed I missed you at the bar by your hotel on Wed., hopefully next time. Thanks Kid & Twisted Brown Trucker Band for a great show and keep up the great work!

It was awesome both nights, but i think i liked the first night better. The Rock-n-Roll Jesus before the encore was great! These will probably go down as my most favorite shows. They really were great. Loved Beavis and Butthead! You should put a kid rock shirt on Beavis instead of the Metallica one. I took my mom to the Saturday night show, she ended up right next to the end of the catwalk. I think, no i know, that she was starstruck.. It was great! THANKS!! I am excited that my interview made the website!! See ya on the cruise, Kristie Stasinski

I attended your Friday show in Saginaw. I wouldn't change a thing. It was simple and classy at the same time. All the bells and whistles aren't necessary if you are a true, solid performer as yourself. I think your Born Free CD is some of your best work. Thank you for sharing your talents with Saginaw. God Bless you and your band. Have a safe touring season.......ML.

I enjoyed both of your shows in Saginaw, MI and also when you came with Rev. Run awhile back. You rocked on both nights. I just love your shows and for coming to Saginaw. I hope you always keep my hometown on your tour list. :)

I had front row seats for Friday's show and it was amazing. I also went to your birthday bash the weekend before. I will have to say both shows were a blast but the Saginaw show was definitely my favorite. this is the second time I have seen you at the Dow and I love this venue. This is my 6th show and can't wait to see more. I also have a special place in my heart for Born Free because that video was filmed in my hometown in the UP and I love watching that video, especially during this winter, to see beautiful Miner's Beach and Pictured Rocks. Thanks for the entertainment!!!!!!!

I wish I could have seen the show. I bought four tickets, two on the floor and two lower level. When my wife and I went to get seated on the floor, we were told that our seats were not available and we would have to move elsewhere. We didn't understand why and questioned the Dow Event staff. They didn't like being questioned about our seat location and asked us to leave! No choice. I was really bummed - the tickets were a Christmas present to my wife. Needles to say, we were not happy campers. It was all she talked about for weeks, the chance to see Kid Rock. We were escorted out alongside a drunk who had started a fight. I had to wait until the concert was over to pick up our friends that had the other two seats. I saw you [Kid Rock] at the Palace several years ago, but this would have been up close. Really bummed...

Just looked for VIP tickets to the Chicago show which is on the day of my 35th birthday and there are none left. That is so depressing, it would have been one of the best birthdays ever if I could have celebrated it with Kid Rock.

By far my favorite concert! I've seen you 4 or 5 times and this was my first time at the Dow...I love it cuz its such a small arena and we had 10th row but were RIGHT next to the run way! I loved every second of it. The only song I'd like to hear is Welcome to the Party... that song is my theme song and I play it everytime we go out and can rap the whole thing. Also one of my favorite part of your shows is when you go around to every instrument and play... just shows how talented you really are. Not many artists can say that. Way to go kid!

I'm looking very forward to the show in Nashville next month! I'm sure it's going to be as awesome as you are! We're taking some friends that have never been to see you, so I can't wait for you to show them what a REAL concert experience is! I've been a big fan for many years and think you're just so talented & amazing...the only thing I wish you'd do is offer more chances for your fans to meet you and that didn't cost an arm & leg! I haven't heard of many opportunities to meet you here in Nashville. And I love you and all, but I can't really afford to give up a couple of paychecks just for one of those VIP tickets for a little face time! I'm sure you're worth it...lol...but it's just not a responsible thing for me to do with my money since I have a family. Maybe you could do more contests in each city or something? And give your congregation first, if not exclusive, dibs! Other than that, just please keep doing what you do! I listen to you every day & it's made my 2 hour commute to work much more tollerable! Have a great day!

We were fortunate enough to get tickets to Friday's show at the Dow...and WOW!!!! Both my husband and myself were amazed! It was our 1st but certainly will NOT be the last! Wish we could have met you-maybe someday. :) Along with the rest of Mi (and the world, right?). There was a big group of us there and we all agreed that this was the BEST concert ever!!! Don't change a thing! And I absolutely LOVE how TRUE you are to Michigan...I'm almost 39 and my family has been here for generations and we love it as well (altho' visiting palm trees is sure nice in our very cold winters :) But you can't beat the Gr.Lks in summer! a.k.a NORTHERN MICHIGAN). I was also amazed at the amt. of instruments you played and my niece and I both loved how HIGH you jump, ha ha!!! Looks like you enjoy what your doing!!! Our 9 & 6 yr olds even love your music (well most of it under mom and dads discretion of course ;-)). I also liked your comment about your son-it's great that you keep him grounded or try-you have a very different lifestyle than most of us and it's so important to stay close to family. And last but not least, we also love how you praise God in many of your songs-you know He is responsible and hopefully that will touch lives and make people realize that without God you don't get very far! Thanks for all your hard work, and your band and the people that help make all you do possible!!!!!

I am trying hard to be constructive. Honestly, I wake up every morning counting down to the day of the concert in Dayton. So awesome that that is a Saturday night. I am sure you will play God Bless Saturday. Whatever you do will be breath taking. Thanks for making great music. Its hard to come by these days. Much love beautiful man! XXOO

My husband and I have seen you everytime you've been in Saginaw. The concert was no different than any other time... AMAZING!!! This year we took our two sons (10 & 11) to see you for their first concert!!! They have been listening to you since they can remember. We are big boaters and it seems you are never on the water without a little Kid Rock!! You & your band do an awesome job.. nice mix of new & old songs! Thank you for coming to Saginaw. My kids had an amazing time and rocked out the entire show :) They were out before we hit 675~ Don't change a thing!!! Oh, I'm glad to see you'll be at Jazz Fest!!! I was wondering why you weren't performing in New Orleans!! Hoping to see you there!!! KEEP ROCKIN!!!!

It seems that once again you're kicking ass and your band with this tour-but of coarse:) I told you a few years back that a whole new generation loves you plus :) Hopefully since this will be I and my sons last time seeing you and the past is in the past, Rock On, which we have:) I would really love to hear "When You Love Someone" and "Only God Knows Why" Feb. 25th at the Sprint Center. Have great ride this time around again and as always God bless!

We absolutely loved saturdays show in Saginaw. The only advice we have would be for you to play "Only God knows why" acoustic. We were also a little bummed that we didn't get to meet you, but we understand you are busy. We will definitely be back to see another show on this tour. We would love to get our "Upper peninsula" flag signed by you so we can fly it while we are over in afgahnistan. Thanks again for a wonderful show! It was absolutely worth the 7.5 hour drive from the yoop.

I was there on Friday and Saturday, and they both ROCKED! Thank you sooooooo much for playing Rock On both nights, I LOVE that song! I did notice Saturday came with a couple of challenges for you, the Dollar sign not dropping, the guitar not working, the chandelier not dropping, lol...but nobody even cared! As always, not just your music, but your stage entertainment, is second to none! Oh yeah, and thanks for carrying around the peach thong we threw on stage, for 3 songs...we thought we were really BAD ASS...lmaooooo

I was disappointed to see an 11 year old girl directly in front of us (floor seats) with her dad. He proudly proclaimed before the show that it was her birthday and this was her first concert. The whole night she would look at her dad in fake amazement/disgust everytime she heard a curse word. Would clasp her hands to her ears and her eyes. She sat with her head between her legs looking down at the floor when the strippers danced, but often would jump up on the chair and then peek at the screen and repeat the whole scene. I hate to say it but I'm wondering if there should be a minimum age limit!! In reality, parents should know their kids and know the concert content a bit better before buying tickets - lol!! It was sooooo distracting, but the concert ROCKED!!
