    What a weekend!

    What a weekend! I am still on cloud 9 from the shows this weekend with Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Band. If you were there, you know what I mean. I am beyond inspired and have already written one of the most honest songs of my career about it. Not sure where or when i am gonna pull it out or release it, but it sends a chill up my spine when I pick up my guitar and play it. I am not trying to tease any of you about it, just wanted to share how inspired and great I am feeling (for the first time, in a long time) especially after being sick with that nasty bug I had. Of course, like alot of people, I can only hope we have some more shows together in the future! (and yes especially something in our home town!) I am not sure what the future holds, but I am hopeful! Thanks to Bob and his crew for making us feel so welcome and allowing me and the band to share a stage with him. What an honor and a few nights I will NEVER forget. I am so ready for these last run of shows on the first leg of the "Rebel Soul Tour" - See some of ya tonite in South Dakota! Rock n Roll Never Forgets! - Kid Rock

What a weekend is right! Friday evening in St. Paul there was so much electricity in the air you could almost hear it crackle. Spent some time pre-show in the bar across from the Xcel Center and the crowd was psyched, some were there for Seger, some for Kid, but mostly for both of them and you knew it was going to be a historic night. And it was. The bands were tight, the sound was fantastic and both Bobs were having the time of their lives and the fans knew it. Best concert in years. I would have loved to drive up to Fargo to see an encore on Saturday but was too damned hungover. Instead I drove through a small blizzard and caught Mondays show at Sioux Falls. Kid was still pumped from the weekend and put on a hell of a show in a much smaller arena. The TBT band and Kid are really firing on all cylinders, don't miss your chance to see them when you can. ROCK ON.

Kid - to hear you found inspiration from the two shows this past weekend and applied that to last night's show in Sioux Falls, warm's our hearts :) To see this experience fuel your fire will only benefit your fan base in the end, so thank you, in advance. Hopefully, the cruise helped you, too. You looked very relaxed everytime we saw you out & about. Thank you for being apart of our memories for our 4th year and God willing, I plan to return for a 5th next year. In the meantime, I look forward to upcoming shows in the D and this Saturday in Columbus!

Bobby, the show in Sioux Falls kicked ass tonight! Thank you for sharing your new song you wrote. Your energy was felt up in Section P! Enjoying a Devil's Cut nightcap before turning in. See you in Omaha, MoFo! Rock on! Jo

It was awesome tonight. Love the venues that seat 7000-10000 people, its's a much more intimate setting. Not a bad seat in the house at the Sioux Falls Arena! Thank God the Sheraton is 50 yards away! Having a Devil's Cut nightcap before turning in. :-)

Anna- it was an awesome concert tonight! Better than the show in Wichita five weeks ago for sure. Love the venues that seat less than 10,000 people. Bobby played his new song he mentioned in his post...I was almost in tears. Sheer joy tonight on his face, he was definitely energized! I will give Mr Seger credit for that. Cannot wait for his 3/29 show in Omaha. Hope you get to see him in Grand Junction! ,

Thank you so much for sharing!! I so wish I was able to attend this show!! When I seen you in Memphis this month I was hoping Bob was going to be there with you!! In my book their is Elvis, Bob Seger and you!! I hope I can see the both of you at some point in the future. Glad your feeling better and really look forward to hearing your new song!! Btw, your show was awesome in Memphis even though you were sick.

God! Wish I could have seen this! Being from Michigan; this would be a dream come true concert! My two favorite artists!!! Shit, I just know that you will do Detroit and I have already spent my concert budget for the year on Toledo this Friday. Oh well, it will be one to remember! Michigan men!!! Just something about them!!!

Well we are thrilled for you! I am trying to get in as many KR/TBT AND Seger/SBB shows as I can--you two are running me ragged! Great news about the possible Hometown show...we are ready! Excited that you are so inspired, but how could you not be? Keep doing what you do best, Country Boy!
