    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!)

Coming up from Cape Coral to see you in Orlando - I'm sure you're ready for some Sunshine down here in Florida! As far as show tonight, it's like the old days if YOU made it there to perform the show is on - to anyone who couldn't make it you lose, plain & simple! I missed plenty of concerts in my lifetime when I lived in NW Indiana bc I couldn't make it in to Chicago due to terrible winter conditions. I NEVER got refunded my money & never expected my money to be refunded. NOT YOUR PROBLEM Kid!! You keep your ticket prices real, you put on the best concert to date, don't let bum bitches work you over & take advantage of your realness by refunding them their money out your pocket - you have no control over this shitty weather what-so-ever! Concentrate on more important things.... ROCK ON! :)

Thank you soooooooooo much! I hated missing the show, we got the tickets for my Christmas present but I just couldn't risk the drive. This is the first time I have missed you in Little Rock but hopefully I make it to the next one!

Being a HUGE Kid Rock fan from AR, I can honestly say I would be there come hell or high snow! We drove 12 hours in a flood from Memphis to Nashville to see Jimmy Buffet in May and KID is sooo much more awesome, so I would deffinately be there. but since I'm on the other side of AR that doesn't exist to the rest of the state, We'll be seeing you again in Memphis for the 4th time! ROCK ON!

Your TRUE fans would NEVER turn on you or talk shit about you! The reason you make a lot of money is because you love what you do AND you love your fans...and it shows!!! You've made a lot of sacrifices in your life to get where you are today, and your fans thank you for that because WE are the ones that benefit. Thank you for doing what you do and for being who you are...we love you :-)

Hey Everybody, I love Kid Rock. I love every song. I listen to his music because his music speaks to me. I have a lot of respect for Kid Rock because he does everything for his fans. I have never seen Kid Rock in concert because I was born and raised in Germany. Since I was little, I wanted to go to a Kid Rock concert. I moved to America about six years ago and Little Rock was my first chance to see him. I was looking forward to see him ever since I bought the tickets. It was a dream come true to me. I could not make it to the show because of the shitty weather. I bought the tickets from my hard earned money. I am college student and I will become a father in August, and I am sure my kid will be a huge Kid Rock fan. I would never blame Kid Rock for this. It is the weather which screws everything up. I just hope Kid Rock will come to Dallas soon so I can see him. I would like to know how I can get my money back, because I have to work hard for this money, and I need to save every cent I have. Again, I love Kid Rock and the Twisted Brown Trucker Band! God Bless Everyone involved with Kid Rock!

Go Bobby! I haven't had the pleasure of seeing you in concert yet but hope to someday! I'm not a fan of huge crowds and hope to get the chance to see you in a little smaller, more intimate, venue. My daughter Jenni, who danced with you in that little dance studio in the basement....lol...has seen you a few times and says your concerts rock! I love your music and think it's so great that you are living your dream! It can't be easy leaving family behind and I'm sure it's not always ideal conditions you travel in. Screw the complainers...they're selfish and don't have a clue! Keep on rockin' Kid!

I have been upset all day KR because number one, I couldn't get to your show...I tried...and wrecked my car this morning trying to get there. How do you expect me to feel. I have always admired you as an entertainer. I am sadden I can't be there tonight, I was taking my daughter for her birthday who has loved you since she was a kid. I couldn't wait to see her face when you walked out on stage. Thank you for being a good person and refunding our money. The money for those tickets was hard to come by and now it gets to fix my wrecked car. As mad as you are at your fans, we were hurt too. Arkansas is not like states up north and not of all us can handle that weather. Our lives were put in danger. Again thank you for restoring my faith in you and doing a good thing whether you feel it is or not. This is the Kid Rock I have grown to love.

Why does everyone have to be so ugly & negative on here?!? There's really no point in being haters. With that being said, I am reposting what I posted earlier since it's not negative or rude & ugly nor filled with all kinds of bad words. Those that were trashing earlier all have a different tune to sing now which I find sad but unfortunately just part of the world we live in these days. I am glad that I wasn't one of them. Thanks for proving them all wrong Kid (which you shouldn't have had to do in the first place). I'm so glad that I wasn't ugly even though I was disappointed that we couldn't make the show somehow I knew in my heart it would all work out one way or another....I even posted the following on the Verizon arena facebook: Everyone who trashed & bad-mouthed Kid should go look at his website kidrock.com & see what he has said about refunds....think alot will see he's not what alot of you have said. I still hate that I had to miss the concert tonight but we have already bought tickets for the Memphis show in March & I'm proud to say we did it BEFORE we knew about the refund statement. Looking forward to Memphis in March! Btw.....how do we go about getting the refund for the first set?
