    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!)

you go ahead and never mind those who grip about you, there will always be those ppl. YOUR GREAT..... my grandson at the age of 5 took me to the music store to buy your cd (his first ever) (and also made me a fan of your music) he didn't know your name but he knew the song and recited the words so the guy at the music store could help us find it....lol. He is still a fan today at age 14... and I shall always listen to your music. Thank YOU KID Rock, a grandma in MICHIGAN....(jackson)

Thank you for being willing to give a refund to those of us who COULD NOT make it to Little Rock for your show. I had 22 inches of snow in my yard and there was no way I could get there....believe me, I would have been there if there had been any way possible!! I have been waiting for such a long time to see you!! I have read about the refund but I haven't been able to find out how to go about getting it. Could someone please inform on how to go about it??

Well Kid, c'mon back to Michigan where your fans live that really appreciate your talent. We deal with all kinds of weather here and if there is a set back you suck it up and move on. I have enjoyed your concerts from Northern Michigan Boyne Mountain to your awesome birthday concert ar Ford Field. You are doing a great job. Dont let anyone tell you different.

Awesome concert last night! My girlfriend and I braved the storm and weather and drove out from Tulsa to kick it with you! We were so delighted to be there... We missed Wichita due to the huge storm that hit us then, and while we got hit again - we saw floor seats open the day of, jumped in the SUV and made Little Rock! Totally worth it!! Highlight of our year!! Thank you Kid!!

Seriously, Kid, I was more disappointed in not being able to make the show than not getting a refund! I had no sitter for my kids b/c of the snow. This concert was a birthday date for my wife and I. We really hope you can find time to have another concert in Little Rock, and let us use our tickets for that show!

All I can say is Rock On Baby, Rock On! Fuck those cry babies! Glad to see you are a real person and you should stand up to them! I can't wait to hear that you are heading back east (Boston), as I'm a detroit girl living in snow country. Keep the faith and enjoy what you do, as you do it WELL! Ciao

Bob..I don't know how you deal with all pissing and moaning from some of these "fans". If it was me I would head up to the UP and live in the middle of nowhere.....btw, I almost shit my pants when I saw the Born Free video and saw what beach you were on. One of my all time fav spots in the world. the Pictured Rocks is beyond words. Anyhow, keep doing what your doing and have fun. Ignore the whiners...and keep representing Michigan and making me proud.

Good for you standing up to assholes and haters. I'm a Detroit girl living in the South - I grew up on the East Side in the 70's. Not since my teen years going to every Bob Seger concert I could - sitting on the "hill" at Pine Knob - have I felt this way about an artist. I love your new cd and listen to it every day... Your soul shows through in your lyrics and melodies. Your song "times like these" gives me a renewed sense of pride about the town I grew up in and a new appreciation for what my parents and grandparents contributed to make it the great city it was - is - and can be again! Your concert tonight will be rockin and I'm hoping my tickets come through to see you in Greenville, SC on Saturday.

Hells! I live in NLR and yeah the weather sucked, but do people think you can just reschedule because of one town's weather? Don't they know you're probably booked up for the year at least? If you rescheduled in every town with bad weather, well that could get hairy. People are ridiculous, sometimes. Most of the time, actually. Nice sofa.

Thanks for keeping it real there are things we can't control like weather. It's also heartbreaking not to be there for your son. They should put in there CD's and be happy your touring and leaving your family to do it. See you in Peoria!!!!

Actually, what would be really cool is if you could hold another show this summer in Little Rock and everyone that did not get to attend could use their tickets for that show. If they wanted a refund then you could just issue those who are not your true fans one! I know as one of your true fans I know that I would just be disapointed that I did not get to see you on tour. Also if I were able to make it to last nights show then I would still pay to attend another one of your concerts. I wish that I could go to every show in every town that you play. I look so forward to when you release a new album and announce tour dates. I hope that you are all safe in your travels! Can't wait to see you in Kansas City, where they have pretty little women! Peace!

Kid......GREAT CONCERT!!! My girlfriend was NOT a fan, but NOW she is. That is all I need to say. If you had a 4 wheel drive there was zero issue getting to the concert. It was actually the easiest concert I have ever been too. There was nobody on the roads. They stopped selling beer early, but that is not your fault....can't talk today from yelling.

Kid.. Can't please everyone, no matter what decisions you and your team make. Make the best call you can, and go! I know I'd be upset if I had to miss a show due to weather, but life's a bitch and shit happens. Last time I checked, Kid Rock don't control the weather. Also, please come to Denver! We didn't seem to make the list this time?? You should have your people set you up at Red Rocks this summer (no snow...), perfect venue for this album. Ray the "other" D (enver)

Hopefully the comments of some of the "fans" won't sway your decision to play Verizon in the future...lol....I couldn't make it last night but certainly don't think YOU owe ME a refund because I couldn't get there. I am just disappointed that we were unable to attend and hope that I have another opportunity to see you SOON!
