  1. Maybe you should have a place for people to sell the copper wire / catalytic converters/ and meth that your clientele are known to have instead of money there Bob Ritchie

    No handouts! They should pull themselves up by the bootstraps to pay full price.

    But this man hosted the most successful Superbowl Alternative Half Time Show of all time!

  4. Free tickets still too much for this garbarge music. He should be paying Americans 5k a pop to attend his terrorist rally.

    Lol. What a loser.

    I don’t think people would go even if it was free. These ppl are so delusional.

  6. Here’s the thing – Kid Rock fell into the category of “music you secretly kinda like but don’t really talk about it.” Most regular people could bounce their heads to a Kid Rock song and even be fine with seeing him live in some type of festival or tour with multiple bands. When he was just being a dude that wants to just play rock music all night, most people (yes, even left-leaning liberal people) were fine with it.

    But then he had to hitch his wagon directly to Donald Trump, attack Budweiser for an innocuous ad campaign, and ultimately make himself a complete pariah to about 2/3rds of the population. This festival normally would be selling tickets regularly like any other festival, he’d make money, have fun on stage, and then everyone would go home happy.

    But nope, he just HAD to link himself to Trump, and now he’s in freefall. He deserves every bit of it for being stupid enough to think it would make him more popular to do this when most artists know connecting yourself to Trump can really fuck your career up.

    Ask “The Piano Guys” how doing something for the Trump Administration goes for your career. Spoiler: their videos on YouTube went from getting millions of hits to almost nothing overnight.

    If he would have just pretended not to be a POS, I would probably see him cuz I grew up listening to him with my bio-dad. I imagine a lot of people are in that boat.

    But absolutely not now

  8. You couldn’t pay me to go for under ,oh say, a million. 

    Who am I kidding. I’d go as low as 350k. At least my house would be paid off

    Tell you what Kid Rock, you pay me and I’ll come see you. Then I won’t show up.

    Having seen Kid Rock live, back in 2004 before he decided to publicly fellate Trump, my advice is for people to spend their money at SixFlags instead because they can watch one of those rock n roll revue shows between rides which is more or less the same thing.

    The thing about bandwagon fans is that they jump off just as quick as they jump on.

    It would be hilarious for a bunch of people to go in drag and just party hard and chomp over his shitty set.

    We can’t afford to go to the dentist or to eat, Kid, let alone festivals. Plus you’re a gigantic pile of shit human being, so it kind of works out sorta.

  14. There is no amount of money you could pay me to willingly sit through a KR show. Seriously I’d rather remove my own appendix.

    Wasn’t his whole schtick like 10 years ago, that he was the one of the only artists still offering 20$ tickets and 5$ beers?
    How the mighty have fallen.

  16. He’d have to pay me like 10,000 dollars to show up. I would show up for that much just to have a laugh.

  17. I’d go for if he’s willing to pay to be seat filler. My rate is $20k a day or $50k for the entire festival plus travel and meal expenses.

    Well no shit. His tickets are more expensive than Taylor Swift’s era tour tickets were initially.

  19. It must be some kind of feeling to be at the absolute peak in popularity at one point and then now offering discounts to your music festival. I hope he has the day he deserves.
