    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!)

Hey Kid You of all people know that you can't please everybody no matter how hard you try. There is always someone that has His or Her panties in a bunch. Anyway just wanted to say I saw your video ( Feel Like Making Love) for the first time a few days ago and loved it. Welcome to the Club!! LOL Take care, Be safe and ROCK ON !!! Papa

You are the man Kid!! The weather was a fuckin bitch tonight. We left at 230 from Memphis for the show. We never made it. There were atleast 30 vehicles mostly tractor trailers jack knifed and stuck in ditches on 40. Traffic is backed up for miles. We were really disappointed not to make the show. But we know the weather isnt something that can be controlled. It just really really sucked!!! Im sure the show was rockin as usual.

I'm a fan. I have to admit I was a little upset because I couldn't make your show because of the hazardous weather. (We set State records with the winter weather this year.) I wasn't to the point of saying terrible things about you, but that was a harsh comment you wrote to your fans. So I took some offense to that..... I'm glad that you still performed for the fans that could actually make it. Please don't be upset with those of us that still adore you, but would like to have our money back. The Economy Sucks for us all. Trust me, My economy story from riches to rags would make you cry. We still love you !

Whoa, too bad folks are so rough on you for things you can't control. I was at your birthday bash and I'm still rockin' from it. We made a big sign and asked a security person to give it to you - hope you got it. Hope the weather clears up so the tour can go on safely. Be safe and see you back in Detroit!

Glad to get a refund. I bought six tickets but we couldnt make it. First concert of yours Ive missed in Little Rock. But I never doubted your loyalty to your fans. You have my respect and I am a fan for life. Keep on making music. Its real, I feel it.

think you are an aweaome person and I am a huge fan! I purchased 4 tickets for tonights show that I was not able to use but I never once complained about being ripped off to anyone. I was heartbroke about not being able to actually see you this time though. I bought tickets back before Christmas and have been looking forward to this show everyday since. I understand that there are a lot of upset people that were not able to make it, but it is sickening to think we have lost that money without the chance to see you in action. I am not bitching nor asking for a refund, but I guess some people just need to vent to make themselves feel better and surely that is all they are doing.

Thanks for the refund and understanding the common man and the weather situation. No one was more pissed than me about not being able to make the show. I've seen every show and intend to see this one on another venue. The refund will make it possible for me to see you at the next show. Hellava White Guy! ROCK ON!!!!

Hey Kid! I was 1 that did not get to come because of the roads. I was at last nites show n Bossier & last Thurs show in Grand Prairie. I was just afraid of the roads. I battled that shit all last week during the superbowl, and ever show I've ever seen of yours are fucking awesome!! I'm glad you didn't cancel the show tonite & I knew you wouldn't. I'm just sorry I didn't make it. I love your ass, so keep rocking baby. I'll see you in Ok. Sheila G Jones Texarkana. Texas

Well all I can say is it was up to each of your fans to get there or not. I personally just flat coulnt make it and am just miserable over it. I am a single mom of two girls that I had to make sure to make it home to. I just couldn't risk it no matter how BAD I wanted too. Please understand that. I hate that lots of fans are downing you and Live Nation. But it is what it is and you are right, you have to deal with the same thing and people should appreciate that you risked your life and bands life to rock in LR, AR. God Bless you and be safe when you continue your tour. I personally would like tickets of same value to another concert close by then get a refund. Either way Im still a life long fan!
