On Christmas day, it seems I blew the engine on my car. I will be unloading my Kid Rock collectibles, Paradime Collectibles, and TBT Collectibles. My Car is going to cost me 3 Grand to repair, and I need all the funds I can to make sure I have a vehicle. So, in the upcoming days, be ready to bid, donate, and help a cause much greater then u may think. I am also organizing a benefit show...
Happy Trails
NEW YORK (AP) — Kid Rock is a scalper.
The 42-year-old Grammy winner, who is launching a summer tour where most tickets are priced at $20, said he's scalping about 1,000 tickets from each show to make up for the cheaper regular price.
"I'm in the scalping business, but you know what? We told everyone. A lot of artists have been doing this for years behind fans' backs, taking all these backdoor deals," he said. "We look at StubHub and other places and see what they're selling them for and we just undercut them."
Kid Rock's "$20 Best Night Ever Tour" kicks off June 28 in Bristow, Va., and the

I got one fer ya-- I woke up from a dream a Devil without a cause had a dream of a black chick ,white guy in the background i heard the Party Ode.Today im feeling like a Gangster from the Oldschool.
There's no reason to work for the man in this wonderful country of ours. Just met with my husbands , now my business partner to go over the details of the new company . He and my spouse ave been working on patents for sometime and he's has quite a few and other ventures and seeing how he has some free time now we decided upon our venture of passive income bringing in about 15 g a day to start. I'm gonna be busy doing the marketing portion since I have all the contacts until it gets going and off the ground and then well, fishing, writing a few songs.
Tell me how people can be selling tickets to the show for over a thousand dollars, it really makes me mad, a true fan would not sell their tickets, especially since they don't have them in the first place, my understanding is the tickets are will call. Luckily I got a ticket and I will never sell mine.

No true fan would ever sell his or her tickets. I took a look on ebay and yeah there are quite a few being sold for over a thousand. There is no way for an artist to control if someone sells their tickets for inflated prices, it's up to the buyer not to pay for them. Just thought of something though, make it will call like KR has done, but also make it mandatory to enter and not leave till the show is over. No way to pick them up and sell them that way. :)
There is also some guy selling the presale code for $15.00 on ebay. I was under the impression that each code is different. I hope he gets stung and has to refund everybody that bought one.
Well their butt is going to have to be in line to pick up their tix this time, and then re-sell them, if I am reading the will-call rules right (as opposed to sitting behind their computer, reselling them, and mailing them out.)
Should be interesting when peeps try to pick up tix not in their name if the scalpers try to pull tha one off...
you're right-they aren't fans.
