    I'm sick. I have been sick since after the Nashville show. I have done every shot and steroid to get better and have only gone more downhill. Time to take care of me. Hopefully be better by Memphis. Off to doctor to get more tests done. I hate this bullshit. Sorry.

Hopefully you are healing. If you are prescribed levaquin, please think twice before taking it. It's likely you will wake up with lupus or arthritis in a year or so. Doxycycline is the way to go, but your doctor won't suggest it. Praying for you....

I had seats right beside the catwalk in Greensboro on Tuesday and could see that he wasn't feeling well :-( his lil nose was red and eyes were weak. The show was awesome as always and a must see for all that are fortunate enough to check it out. Big hugs and thank yous to Kid Rock for giving us 100% even when he wasn't feeling 100%.

Sucks being sick and don't I know it-more ways than one -still remember how all the band was so sick for Care tour and you guys didn't cancel cause of it being to raise money and all you guys were troopers for that!!! So yeah do what you got to do for you cause if you don't have your health you don't have much-and trust me I know this for real!! Hope you get better soon and so agree with tests, going to doctors sucks, right there with you on that!!! Take care Robert and God bless :)

So sorry to hear you are sick! Everybody has got it. I have been slamming Emergen-C drinks everyday to stay healthy for the cruise. Please rest and maybe....just maybe....you will have enough down time to actually read all of our posts some of us write every day to you. :-) Sending prayers for a speedy recovery! We love you Bobby!!

Sooo sorry you are feeling so bad. Get well soon! My husband and I just saw you on Feb 7th in Texas..(17th time in 10 years!)....and the concert was PHENOMENAL, as usual....but somehow even better than the last few times we've seen you. I know your fans are the most important thing to you (other than your son), and if you can't give them a show that is ALL of you, you'd rather not do it. This must mean you are very sick.....FEEL BETTER!!!!

As one of your biggest fans, I've traveled all over the "Greatest country in the world" to see you perform. Tuesday I'm to board my 1st CTM cruise which wasn't easy to get on. Becuz I traveled to 5 states last yr to see you in concert, I had to beg, borrow and steal (Steal Everything, Right?! ha!) just to step foot on the Norweigen Pearl. Initially I was devastated, in a selfish way, but then stepped back and realized YOU ARE MF'n SICK because you NEVER draw a moment of sympathetic attention to yourself. I know this cuz I've followed most all your posts online. I hope you get well very soon (Tuesday please ha!) cuz the downtime alone must be killin ya! I'm sorry, I wish I could help.

Today is my 41st birthday, my daughter surprised me with tickets & we drove down this evening & later found out the concert was cancelled. This would have been my third time seeing him in concert & as luck would have it- the other 2 times were near my birthday as well. So Yes, today I was a little disappointed but anyone that has ever saw him in concert- I'm sure they can tell you, he is one hell of a performer, I've saw a lot of great bands in my time but Kid Rock gives more than 100%- you leave his show feeling you didn't pay enough....lol, you more than get what you paid for!!!! I am soooo thankful, he recognized the fact he was sick & decided to cancel the show & get some much needed rest & just take the time to get well again & anyone who may have ill words to say about the show being cancelled isn't a true Kid Rock fan as I believe in my heart-(being a huge fan from the late 90's) he is one hell of a performer & has always struck me as being a man of integrity & also one whom always ALWAYS puts his fans 1st!!!!! & to Kid Rock.......PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come back to East TN, I truly would love to see you on this tour. I take care of my mom whom has cancer & my brother who has complete kidney failure & is on permanent dialysis. It is very hard for me to stay away from home very long, making it impossible for me to travel very far & I am sure there are a ton of fans here that love you as much as I do :) Get well soon Bobby.....Take Care!!!!!

I saw your post and I took care of my mom and step dad as they were going through there last years.My mom got sick and past then her husband right after.I was running over helping them as i lived next door.3 in the morning then 5 in the morning then all day.The part that hit me hard was in the 3 years i took care of them i didn't see any friends,or other family.I never left the house for 3 years.So im sorry you didn't see the show I know how it is when you get out you have to cram as much fun as you can.But like you said you aren't a true KID fan if you don't understand him being sick!!!!I hope you get to do something fun and you DONT STAY HOME because you need that time and space away.You can be very proud for what you are doing for your family.God bless you. :) and KID ROCK up and down the block.......

Hey, I am a healer. Seriously... a gift from God is the only way to explain it. I have a few clients you must know, or know of. I have also just driven for 2 days with another to go to get on the boat, so please, if conventional western medicine is not working to heal you, let me help. I imagine your web person has access to my email address. Sending you light and ease....

Feel better soon hun, I turned F'in 40 in the bed with the flu and double pneumonia, so the only thing to do was post-pone my birthday right? I just got released from the doc to go on the CTM#4...like I would miss it anyway...HA!...I had shots, steriods and prescriptions and over the counter meds to treat the symptoms for a month...the key is REST...we LOVE you and need you HEALTHY...my doc recommended Airborne until the beginning of Summer because of all this sickness...i'll be chasing them with drinks on the cruise and passing them out if I need too...REST HUN!!!

DONT LAY DOWN IF YA HAVE PNEUMONIA!!!!!! I know ya feel like shit and need plenty of rest but sit up as much as possible, people think ya have smokers cough and let ya rest and really your drowning and dead in little time! i know from personal experience this can happen. Please listen, i love ya and so do so many others. Have people check on you. Pneumonia takes a long time to recover from, up to a year i know of some people, take time off and stay in one climate, this is very dangerous.
