    Dear fans and friends, Myself, the band and crew have worked harder on rehearsing and putting this tour together than any before. I want people to come and have the best time ever, be moved, motivated, touched and walk out of the show feeling GREAT! I do not want it to be spoiled for anyone attending. For those of you around the world and in the States who can not make it to a show, of course, can get bits and pieces on the internet. I have struggled with the idea of not allowing anything from this tour to be posted until AFTER it is over, probly the end of the summer / early fall. It absolutley pains me to know people can see all the suprises and different songs we have worked so hard on after the first few shows! I can NOT however bring myself to do this, as I know so many good people who can't attend will want a little slice of the new tour, even if it is a camera phone recording with shitty sound and video! I will suggest however, that if you are able to come, you would not spoil it for yourself and try to refrain from, all of our addictions, to the quick satisfaction of the internet until after you have attended. We are gonna try to our hardest to post lots of goodies and insight on the road through Kidrock.com and other social media throughout the tour.We have a basic setlist outline for the tour, but will be switching up songs nightly to keep it fresh for you and for us! We are beyond excited, prepared and ready to play some music for all of yall', Hope to see your face in the place! Happy New Year - Kid Rock.

I have struggled with the idea of not allowing anything from this tour to be posted until AFTER it is over, probly the end of the summer / early fall......... Seems some Fans after only two shows did not get the message???? Either that or I mis-understood. I took it that Kid and the Band requested that any STAGE Props, ANY Back Drops, Costumes associated with the Concert Series NOT BE POSTED PUBLICLY---I can see if fans want to post pics of themselves with other fans- Kid really can't request that to stop. But only after two shows I've seen the stage, the wardrobe, and have heard of some of the surprises. Human Nature???? or Misunderstanding???

How about the request is just plain wrong. Industry standard. What surprises? Should invest some of his cash in getting his providers to do what is says they will do to in his contracts and protect his dollar bills. If that's even his issue. It's free advertising.

A show is so much more enjoyable when you don't know what to expect. I will be attending my first ever Kid Rock show in less than 4 weeks in Greensboro, NC and can't wait! I have always heard that there is no live show like a Kid Rock show.

Hey Kid not to be a smart A-- but what your telling us to avoid the 10 most annoying concerts behavors LOL. Maybe I was wrong your view from the stage can get quite wild! But You are the King of party till you drop! I agree I don't want someone to run my good time at the concert. See you Soon Feb 15th!!! Congrats on your joint venture with Harley Davidson.

I totally get this, but DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO GO SEVERAL MILES TO A CONCERT YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING MONTHS FOR AND "NOT TALK ABOUT IT" I'm going to the first 3 and that's going to be hard, but I respect your wishes, but does that mean no pics. to be posted either? This is a tough one, as I have yet to ever see a bad performance, or have a bad time at one of your shows!!!! WE'RE KICKIN IT OFF IN KANSAS CITY!!!!! I GOT THE TRAVELING BANNER............WOOT....WOOT!!!

I'm sure every fan appreciates everyone's hard work, but I can honestly say I've never been to a bad show. They are all spectacular in their own way and I can remember specific things I enjoyed about every show I have been to. That being said, since you made a point to say ya'll have worked harder on this tour than any other, it makes me even more excited for the tour!!! Didn't think that was possible.

Hope that you announce your Detroit dates soon, came to both shows 2 years ago at Comerica. Best concerts I have experienced in 35 years. In regards to Rock's statement, I understand what he is saying. Two years ago, very few people were surprised by the little twists and turns the show took and this must be frustrating because of all the work they put into it and for anyone to rag him for that, point to another relevant artist who does what he does with his licensed music without chasing you back into your house threatening fines. Keep up the good work Kid and like I said, can't wait to see you in the D!

Hmm. Well, that is certainly food for thought. Your idea around owning someone else's interpretation of the show is a little out there...being that they purchased the actual participation ticket allowing them to see your show thru their eyes. Which is what they do share on the internet. It is not about spoiling it I don't think I think it is more about the actual experience they are sharing. I mean it really is awesome to share with people. Especially if its great. So if you want to own it you better put out your own video/dvd of your tour. Did you happen to know about 3d concerts, the cable company will also charge for certain concerts etc. I mean how do you spell gay with 12 letters? One direction. If you wanted to you could go that route as well. Just saying. Also if you choose to start working twice as hard tell everyone fuck it you have to tell everyone you possibly can. Its like a birthday party. If you don't tell anyone you won't get any presents nobody will show up. On the other hand if you do tell everyone there is a pretty good chance you will have guests as well as a lot of presents. Tell everyone. And capitalize on it. I am just saying I cannot even remember the last time Tom Petty put out a song. Do you really want to go that route? Who is he again?

I am hoping you and Bob Seger can work out more dates later in the tour... hopefully in the Southeast! Just saw both NYE shows, going to Greenville, SC and Knoxville, TN and waiting for more dates in the South to be announced... It's going to be a GREAT summer!!!
