    Show Update

    It's this simple, If you bought tix to tonights show and can't make it, YOU WILL BE GETTING A REFUND, STRAIGHT OUT OF MY POCKET. I've never ripped any of my fans off, EVER!!! I have also NEVER missed a show. I know there are people who drove here from Memphis and Oklahoma, been in there cars all day driving and dealing with this shitty weather, the same as me and my band have the WHOLE TOUR. You so called "fans" on my website bitchin and moanin and saying i'm greedy, can GO FUCK YOURSELVES, plain and simple. Throw out my cd's and lose my number, I don't want drama kings and queens like yall anywhere around myself, band, crew, family or my fans.

    Thank you to the real fans who not only understand my situation but defended me. It's not easy to tour in these conditions and also be stuck on the road with a teenage son at home and in high school. I make alot of money, no question, but i've never ripped anyone off to do it. I have sacraficed alot to live this dream and play music for all of you, i wouldn't trade it for the world, but the fact remains. To the people who made it too tonights show, I WON'T LET YOU DOWN. Now, time to make a set list and get ready to ROCK. Hope everyone traveling gets here safe!! Kid Rock (straight from the dressing room!)

I don't know who even has a right to b*tch about anything. It is winter. They need to get over that fact. It isn't like you waved a magic wand to bring these monsterous snow storms. Don't take it to heart. They need to put their big boy and big girl panties on. I would have driving through a snow storm to see you had I been closer to see you perform! You are #1 in my book~~ Rock On!!!!!

Any of those "knotheads" who do not understand the personal and physical demands of an entertainer should spend a little time readin' up on it and keep their selfish mouths to themselves. You deserve all the best. You are a wonderful entertainer today, you have always been a wonderful entertainer and guess what you will always be a great entertainer because you have what it takes Music in your soul, been their since birth I am sure...that is the way it happens. Some can write the words, some can sing the tune, takes a great entertainer to do both and that is you (and Sheryl and Bob and Kracker and Willie LOL)

WOW! I think its great how you stood up and told it how you see it straight from your heart.. The so called fans need to realize its rough out there with the weather and its heartbreaking leavin your son at home while your on the road.. You give everything to the TRUE REAL FANS, and on top of it risking your own life along with the bands etc being out driving in bad weather conditions, PEOPLE need to appreciate that, they need to count their blessings you and the band and crew made it to your destination SAFELY!!!! I as a single mom have teenagers and I would be furious with the terrible comments people make...I have MYSELF traveled to see artist to other states in bad weather, and drove in bad weather myself to see a artist..its scarey, and yes im sure you relate very well you worry about your kid/kids back home..I have never seen your concert yet but hopefully will,,soon...I hope you have safe travels to every where you go through out your tour.. I also hope your son back home is okay as well as I know teenagers worry about their parents...you truly have a heart of gold givng to your fans, takin risks with this shitty weather,. and ur so right , people need to f&ckin need to learn to appreciate the trouble ya'll go thru as well on the road,...I willl continue to PRAY for YOU, your band, crew and your son as well...Take it easy BOB... my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, band , crew etc as ALWAYS nancy ndm38@aol.com 30-463-4262 360-

Can't wait to see you in Chicago! I bought tickets for my 10 year old son to see you on the 26TH and he cannot wait. He has been memorizing the Born Free album for the past 2 months, he has Rock n Roll jesus down already (i keep him away from a few other albums, sure you understand, but I own them all!) PS-- Anyway you can say Happy Birthday Cory durning your Chicago Show?? Just thinking out loud...

You will never make everyone happy and to be honest there is a hell-of-a-lot of people out there that just plain like to be miserable human beings, they'd bitch if you gave them a solid gold bar and dropped it on there toe. You are an amazing artist and I for one appreciate all your try.

I was so glad you made it to Wichita KS last Tuesday, and guess what - last night was just as bad as last week, this time of the year sucks but I was SO GLAD you made it last week, and if you didn't, who wouldn't understand, the weather has been crappy! This was the first time I have seen you and you guys did great pulling it together with your band still on the road-risking themselves-keep up the good work, I only have one complaint-I wasn't the girl up on stage asking you the question and getting my shirt signed! You are great!! I can't wait to see you again-just hope I get myself a better seat. Be safe out there! In a couple months you will have the tornadoes!

Hey Kid! I am sorry that so many fans here were hateful to you! I love what you stand for and who you are! You are raw and real and that is awesome! I did post that I was disappointed you were not rescheduling but it's because I want to see you perform! I'm so bummed! I also said that I was upset about losing my money and I want to apologize for that! I never claimed though that it was because you were greedy. But I did say it nonetheless and I'm sorry. I do understand that it was a tough call for you. I hope that you will come back soon so that those of us who could not make it get to rock with you eventually! Just know that not everyone here in Arkansas is hateful towards you! We are all just very frustrated and wishing we could be there right now!! Take care!

I don't know how you do it when all that negativity comes at you? I just hope the sincere and positive energy that comes your way helps to balance all that out. You give everything you've got when you're on stage, however you're also human and it seems people tend to forget that. They also don't understand there are many things outside your control. We're all connected in this game called life. Visualize all those people who truly care about you and your well being, their love lifting you up, and God's light and love carrying you through to tomorrow. Sending you peace, and love. Oh, and most importantly I don't expect anything in return. :) Have a great show!

Well Hummm, How do we get this refund you talk about out of your pocket? I would have been there if the roads was not closed. tried to go another way out of town BUT only to fine the damn cops turning us back. Not PISSED off at all. Not your fault! you do not control the weather any more than I can. But would like to have my money back so I could buy tickets for the memphis show!!! Let me know how to get my money back OR if I can use these tickets for the memphis show either way is good good good for me!! Love ya!! ROCK ON!!!!

I was hoping to see you in concert in Wichita, KS this month, but just didn't have the funds. I heard you put on a great show despit the terrible weather and your band being snowed in in another city. I hope this terrible weather and bad press doesn't turn you off of touring, I'd love to see you come back to Wichita so that I can see your show. Thanks for the great music, you keep me young!

I am so sorry that there are people like that out there. Fact is i love you n your music so much, i would love to be there tonight. But our funds are very low so we set here n listen to your CD's. That by the way are great!!!! I love blue jeans n rosery (sorry spelling bad). It is so much of me in there. Please don't let them people hurt you by saying shit. Your are awesome at what you do!!!!

Kid, Your a great guy and a great entertainer! I was at your show a couple weeks ago in Grand Rapids, and had the time of my life! Please come back and visit soon! I love that you always can say what is on your mind and heart. A true man there folks! Assuming you saw the Chrysler for the Chrysler 200, which I love the city of Detroit and sport my own Chrysler PT (QT) cruiser, would have been much better if you were the star :) Maybe we will see you at a couple Tiger games this year? If you want to come back this summer, I would be willing to show ya around West Michigan, and take you to a West Michigan Whitecaps game, where the stars are born! :) We love you Kid!
