    RUDENESS @ Hard Rock in Hollywood Fl
    Annette Vivona says (11 Mar '11)

    One of my favorite things to do is to see Kid Rock live, ANYWHERE!! I live in SW Florida and have been all through the state to see him, Detroit for his 40th, and Jones Beach Theatre in NY....

    This tuesday, March 8th, I was at the Hard Rock Live in Hollywood Florida, and I was appauled by the immaturity of several people throwing bead necklaces at Bobby onstage!!  I am originally from NY and am a NY'er to the bone, but have been in FL for over 20 years...  I can't tell you how pissed off I was after the FIRST bead necklace was thrown, which Bobby had the ability to ignore, as he did with the SECOND, THIRD, and FOURTH!!  It wasn't until one too many necklaces were thrown onstage, and NOBODY from security did ANYTHING, did Bobby say something out loud.... How he had the composure to continue to put on an amazing show, as always, I will never know!!  But THANK YOU!!  If I could've seen WHO was throwing the beads, I would've started a RIOT!!  But I was on the floor, and am only 5'2'', so I couldn't see who was actually doing the throwing..  I was extremely offended by this behavior, and hope that this doesn't affect Bobby coming back again.... Hard Rock is a nice small venue, and I enjoy going there.....But would understand completely if that was the decision...

    Thank you, for everything you do, and keeping us entertained despite of a few assholes....

    Can't wait until the cruise!!

Well, being from the Detroit area, Ive seen him at prettty much every venue, from the emerald to the joe! I spent some time in Florida and I caught a show at the hard rock live a few years back! Lets just say it wasnt what I was used to. I guess im a little spoiled from all the detroit shows!!!! I can also say that almost every concert I went to in florida was lame compared to concerts in Michigan. Im talking about all acts. Those people dont know how to rock down there!!!!

Most venues have rules. They catch you throwing shit on stage once you get warned. After that they can and will throw your ass out. I don't think Riverport/Live Nation in St. Louis/Maryland Heights, MO allows it. Other then they don't throw a fuss if some chick throws her panties or bra up there. Most performers don't mind that though. I am sure Rock wouldn't throw a fit over panties or a bra wrapping around his face. Hard objects of any sort is bullshit though. I have seen performers get hit with bottles, plastic cups and all kinds of shit. It isn't cool to do in the least...

its one thing if you are in front and ya HAND him something...thats one thing or like I did leave it with a bus driver and he told me where to place it so it wasn't in someones way. * The best gift ya could give him is allowing him to be in LOVE , everyone needs someone. not to judge her and verbally bash the crap outta her. if HE loves her there has to be something GOOD about her. don't stalk them by POSTING PICTURES UP and speculating OH that the Girl. be respectful HE doesn't follow your every move and post Photos with your intimate partners does he? talk the talk but also...walk the walk ~

i was on the floor as well. lucky enough to be right in the front and tall, but I had some girl with a giant paint marker pen and a hat, constantly shoving her hand literally in my face. I saw the person who thru the beads on my side, and Mr. Rock surely got rightfully pissed. I hope Mr. Rock comes back again, ive seen him twice, and find him for sure an amazing performer and extremely talented, plus easy on my eyes thats for sure! Apologizing for all assholes, I hope you make more apperances here. Your a definate privlage!

good post. Theres an old video out there that shows him getting hit smack in the face with a frisbee. It makes me cringe everytime.

What the idiots maybe dont realize is when you are on stage there are BRIGHT lights shining right in his face. He cant see shit!

Do not throw anything at the rockstar Please. Even if it doesnt hit him he could slip on beads and bust his ass. NOT COOL
