Free Kid Rock Concert

Anybody else check out Kid Rock for free tonight? Sure, you had to watch from the gates outside of Comerica Park, but still, it was free. We caught over an hour of rehearsal, and he was still going when we left. Not sure what time they kicked off tonight. Funniest thing he said was when the lighting was off during what is supposed to be a crowd participation situation.

"Try and turn the lights on the crowd when THEY are supposed to sing, otherwise, it's just stupid. Don't let it get you down too much though, as tonight has been anything but seemless so far."

LMAO.

Sport, nothing personal if you're a fan, but you'd have to pay me to watch him.

I'm not a fan either but I'm going with the wife tonight. Shes a huge fan. I'm looking at it like this. Lynard Skynrd is going to be there tonight and I've never seen them.

At least Kid started some new jobs in MI with his new beer. I heard it created about 300 jobs.

I heard that, at the show tonight, a brief nod to Michael Jackson was greeted with some booing.
It's comforting to know that the knuckle-dragging redneck racist contingent is still willing to come "down" to Detroit, what with so many of "those" people always being around here, brandishing guns & knives and leaping out from behind dumpsters and shrubs, and all.

Maybe they weren't booing because of his ethnicity, but because he was a pedophile?

i agree, or because the typical Kid Rock fan feels it isn't macho to like Michael Jackson

Maybe you should have went to the show for yourself instead of making racist claims. Great times had by all except for maybe the girls who had to wait in hour long bathroom lines. Wish more shows like this happened downtown, awesome fun time.

Free Concerts and more free events from lot of people with good hearts. That's how we beat corporations who collapse our global ecomony. This is early pratice of Democratic Socialism in America.

The U.S. will be socialist. The Worker's Party of Union will rise again.
