    It's this simple, If you bought tix to tonights show and can't make it, YOU WILL BE GETTING A REFUND, STRAIGHT OUT OF MY POCKET. I've never ripped any of my fans off, EVER!!! I have also NEVER missed a show. I know there are people who drove here from Memphis and Oklahoma, been in there cars all day driving and dealing with this shitty weather, the same as me and my band have the WHOLE TOUR. You so called "fans" on my website bitchin and moanin and saying i'm greedy, can GO FUCK YOURSELVES, plain and simple. Throw out my cd's and lose my number, I don't want drama kings and queens like yall anywhere around myself, band, crew, family or my fans.

    Thank you to the real fans who not only understand my situation but defended me. It's not easy to tour in these conditions and also be stuck on the road with a teenage son at home and in high school. I make alot of money, no question, but i've never ripped anyone off to do it. I have sacraficed alot to live this dream and play music for all of you, i wouldn't trade it for the world, but the fact remains. To the people who made it too tonights show, I WON'T LET YOU DOWN. Now, time to make a set list and get ready to ROCK. Hope everyone traveling gets here safe!! Kid Rock (straight from the dressing room!)

Outstanding show last night Kid! I'm from Clarkston (worked at Oakhurst for a while, saw you and the family out there often!), but never got to see you while I lived in Michigan. You're doing great things for the city of Detroit and the state of Michigan. I'm very proud to have been born in such a great state and I'm proud to knwo that you're from Michigan, too! I also appreciate all that you do for our men and women of the Armed Forces. As an Air Force aviator, I can tell you that we are very proud to have Real Americans like yourself give back to us in whatever way you can. Thank you for putting on such an amazing show for us last night! I'll be back to as many concerts as I can, hell, maybe I'll see you on your next USO tour when I'm deployed. Keep doing what you're doing!

All you so called fans that think KR owes you something need to FUCK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! He owes you nothing and his true fans will defend him till the end. So dry up your tears and take your whiny asses off his site and stay away from his shows. His true fans do not welcome your type.

Kudos to ya Rock! And to the fans who braved the elements. Wind, rain, sleet and snow..... the show must go on! And you know that arena ROCKED with nothing but the most die-hard and loyal fans! Now all that being said..........Any chance you're gonna make your way out to sunny California anytime soon............ ""I got no time for the fakes and the phonies....the crooks and the creeps and the cops and cronies...."

Seriously this is rediculous your are an incredible performer and I would travel through anything to see you. Don't sweat this crap. Be safe and get home to your kids and if anyone wants to throw away your number they can throw it my way! I'm sure this concert will rock without all of the poser fans in the way anyways. Enjoy it to all of you that can be there. I would love to be there! Screw it all kid and come back to michigan and I will drive through a Snowmeggedon like we just had to see you. I'll take the sleds if I have too. Roll On!!!!!

Thats the way we do it in Detroit!!!! Amen to that!!!! I had a blast at your birthday blast at forty field by the way. And the year the super bowl was in Detroit I drove through all that shitty weather just to see you. Anyone who purchases a ticket should take in concideration there might be weather conditions in the winter time.. LOVE YOU KID ALL YOUR SHOWS ARE FANTASTIC AND WELL WORTH A BLIZZARD OF ANY TYPE!!!

I am a new fan. You can't control the weather, and it is very generous to offer refunds. People should not be upset with you. I live in Missisiippi and have not seen weather like this since I was little, by the way that was a long time ago! The Born Free cd is awsome, and a lot of the songs will be played and listened to by many generations.

Your response is awesome, this is one of the many reason why I'm such a fan of yours, you say it how it is. You are so down to earth, I love that, you never forgot how hard you have worked to get where you are today. You should come to Mid Coast Maine, I know you can make a lot more money playing in large cities, but it is beautiful here, and in the summer (the best time to come) the sites are breathtaking. Hey, Obama came here with his family last summer. I even know where you could play. Well think about it, if you ever get a chance to read this.

You NEVER let the fans down. You give 150% all the time. I agree about the bitchin, this is a fan site, not a place for people to talk you down. You can do no wrong in my eyes that's for sure. You rocked our ass off in Wichita even though we were in the middle of a freaking blizzard and the band was late getting there. Please stay safe in all this crazy weather. I can't believe all the horrible weather you guys have had to deal with on the road. Makes me nervous with you guys on that bus so much. Can't wait to see ya again the 25th in KC!! Love ya!

Dude! Why do you let these people get to you? This is the second rant I've read on here, your gonna give yourself a heart attack. Go out do your thing, the right thing, and fuck the rest of them. Your never going to please everyone all the time.

Kid, I was at the Little Rock show and it was awesome!!! I thought it was more up close and personal without all the weenies there. It could have been four feet of snow and I still would have been there. I also wanted thank the people at Verizon Arena for letting people move down and get closer. Stick to your work ethic, some of us have to work in all kinds of weather, it ain't easy but it's our job. Keep on Rollin, and thank you for being there...

You deserve every dime you make. To hell with the whinners. Some people are never happy even if you stood in front of them and entertained them personally. I can only imagine the stress you must have with what you do. I have only been to one of your concerts but would give anything to be able to go to more. I will concider it a privelage if I'm able to go again anytime soon. Be safe in all your traveling.

Hey Kid, Enjoy yourself like you always do at the show. Don't waste one more second on the negativity of others I miss the hell out of you. This is one of the weekends that I would normally see you in Atlantic City, it always makes my Vday extra special. So when the hell are you coming back to NJ?? Until then..... Peace out, and keep on Rockin'!!

Not true Bob . Download festival 2008 you cancelled just before you were due on stage and i drove 6 hours just to see you perform, so you missed that show....definately not saying you were greedy though! Don't get me wrong i love your music and despite download i drove even longer and further to see you in hammersmith later on (being a true fan) but even so that day i felt very let down

Damn....pretty much what I just said!! Don't sweat the idiots Bob, you all do what you do so well! Fuck them if they don't get it, or you. Michigan will always Love You! I wouldn't refund shit to them, this is a free country, it was their choice to buy the damn tickets, if they didn't go to the show it was their choice and their fault! Do they think you can control the weather? Maybe they just need to learn to drive in it? If I'm not mistaken you and the band were out driving in it too just to come entertain them! You & TBT Rock their shit then wave bye, bye they don't deserve your talent! SEE YOU ON THE BOAT!!

I walked 3 miles in the snow when my ride bailed out on me at the very last minute. I didn't stick my thumb in the air, but this is Arkansas and someone stopped and gave me a ride to the show then someone else picked me up on the way home. I have a rear wheel drive car and it would have been in the ditch. I want to thank Jamey and Bobby for a great show as well as the folks who took the tickets, served the food & drinks and the men and women in blue who provided security to make it such an awesome evening. The fans, we were there because we wanted to be. The workers had to be there. I bought two tickets and only used one, but I don't want a refund. I'm proud to live in a country where I have freedom to come and go as I please and I'll gladly walk to see either of these LEGENDS again if that's what it takes!
