    Just toured the Jim Beam Distillery with Fred Noe (if you don't NOE who he is, read the side of a bottle of Beam!!) It's no longer "sippin' whiskey out the bottle" it's now "drinkin' whiskey out the barrel!" Thank you to Jim Beam and Red Stag, for not only makin' Kick Ass bourbon, but for also helpin me, help to keep the ticket prices low for the fans! and for thier dedication to our troops and there families with "Operation Home Front". - Your the best- Kid Rock

Let me try that again... Did someone get LUCKY in KENTUCKY ??? LMAO I miss my home state but I love the sunshine & beach in FL. Did anybody make you Bourbon Slush (it's a KY drink) ? If not, when you come to Ft. Liquordale, FL in March (can'nt wait) I'll hook ya up. I would LOVE to meet you again (and be a little more sober this time LOL), 93 Rock is no longer on the air and they were the ones that made the meet and greet happen when you rocked the Filmore in Miami on your Rock & Roll Jesus tour (that was an awesome Bday for me), so what's a girl suppose to do ??? I know, Baby Rock On !!! ;) At least I have my screensaver & Facebook picture of me giving you a kiss that night. Enjoy Kentucky, PEACE & LOVE. Maria

MJKYLADY LOL thats so funny, in a good way, because thats what would happen to me.. just when its time to sing it gets quiet enough that im the only one they hear scream out a song lol... I dont think i can sing well at all let alone i tell everyone im rhythemless as well as tone deaf LOL.. Years ago my friends and I went out to kareoke and they had me get up with a freind of mine to sing I LOVE ROCK AND ROLL , oh dear god,, they set me up, i was DRUNK remind you, then they turned off my friends microphone and left mine on and i was too drunk to notice tilll near the end when they told me what they did. so from then on I NEVER sang kareoke, ..LOL

Kid, just got home from the concert here in Louisville. I've been counting down the days like a crazy lady and I must say that it was definitely worth the wait!!! I was near the stage, and I sang, danced all night. I do think I got a little carried away at one point. You were singing "So Hot" and you paused at one point for the us to sing...well I didn't sing it, I screamed it. I saw you laugh, because you were having a great time like we were. Then it hit me that I thought my voice sounded a bit louder than the audience. So when the song was over I asked the two guys (who I had been talking to all night) "Was it just me, or did I sound louder than everyone on that part?" They laughed and said "Hon, I heard you over the band!", I said "Oh, you're just kidding me." The other guy shook his head and said "yes you loud on that part." I wish that I could blame it on drinks...but I don't drink...well I had a Coke..lol! Thank you for officially initiating the YUM Center as it should be!!! You gave us one hell of a show. Have a safe trip for the rest of the tour! God Bless Love ya Kid and TBTB

Welcome to Kentucky! My dad worked at that very plant for 37 years!!! I worked there a few months, temporary, during the holiday season.....It's a cool place to work! Glad that you had time on your way to Louisville to stop in. Enjoying your new CD and glad you are getting the respect and recognition you SO deserve!

Now this is what you call a "Kid" in a candy store - paying homage to the motherland of Whiskey! You look very happy and comfortable here! ;-) Stay safe on your tour; you're fighting a good fight with the crazy weather and all. Thank you and please come to Utah!
