    Got to spend some time in Kansas City today before the show with Make A Wish child “Alex”- We played “Born Free” and “All Summer Long” (at his request) in a private soundcheck today for him and his family, He is even the first person to wear my “EMSP l.e.d. hat!!” Had a blast spending time with him and I think he’s gonna have a great time tonite! Truly a young man god has his hands on. Rock On Alex, from your friend, Kid Rock.

When you give yourself and do something like you did for Alex, this is what makes you a true STAR!!! You have always been a favorite of mine and this shows what an extra specail person Kid Rock aka Bobby truly is.

No suprise to see Kid take time to spend with Alex. "If you can't see his heart, you must be blind"

THAT is so sweet man!! Alex I really hope you enjoyed the show honey, Kid Rock is an amazing person in my book. His songs have meaning - everyone of them. They have gotten me through so much in my life, I too hope to meet him one day!! not because he is famous though. Because he is such a caring person. I want to shake his hand and thank him for all he has gotten me through... who knows , maybe i'll wind up in michigan one day and i'll be there to stay. I need to get away from all the crap I gotta put up with. But Alex, you are Gods child. Live it well. And you remember tonights experience with Kid Rock. You will hold him dear to your heart ............ I do.

It is great to see someone like you to take time from your busy schedule to make a child smile. This comes from experience I had a stroke last summer and it helped having people who cared to visit or call it made the hospital staybearable I still have a long way to go but I will make it , Pam S

omgosh...bless his heart, along with all the sick children...adults having a disease is bad but when u see a child and the fact that u just know their days are numbered will tare ur heart apart...I know, I had a niece to pass away from Cystic Fibrosis, it was really bad, she passed 2 weeks after turning 8....This is really good of u K.Rock....God Bless You and Your Crew While On Tour...

You are truely a great person . I know my kids agree they enjoy the autographed pictures and the letter you wrote them about their dad. They also listen to the cd's everyday. My brother in law was in Iraq when you sang for the soldiers . He told you the story about their dad passing. Airman Brian Dashiell he also helped get things you needed for the show. Anyway we really love you and I will be seeing you in E'Ville IN on Mar 1st . I would love to meet you in person. Love Tina Eck

Kid, once again I am proud to say Im a die hard fan for life. Once again you brought tears to my eyes. You dont only put on the best show but you are amazing with people. You think of others all the time and are not afraid to show you care. You have the biggest heart and god sure has his hands on you my friend. Im sure you made Alex dream come true, and gave that precious little guy a day to remember. This is another reason why I truly love you for all you do for the fans. Making dreams come true for those who matter. Anxiously waiting for the next show in the D. I am in need a a KID ROCK fix. take care my friend, be safe and have fun Deb Reid (Windsor Ontario)
