Kid Rock
So, as you may have heard, Kid Rock was in the news this past weekend for lighting up a cigar when he shouldn't have. But I think there's a bigger story here. And that's that he was doing it at a Travis Tritt show. I guess Kid Rock and pal Uncle Kracker wanted to see the show, so they joined the roughly 1,000 people there. I love that Kid Rock loves Tritt enough to go to a show when he comes to his hometown. Tritt has always had kind of a Southern rock sound and had some of the same lyrical themes as the Detroit rocker. So I can see why Kid Rock wanted to take in this acoustic show. It was on Friday night (Jan. 13) at the Andiamo Celebrity Showroom in Warren, Mich. Now, Michigan has a statewide ban on smoking in restaurants and bars. And Kid Rock has since apologized, saying,"My most sincere apologies to the patrons I may have offended and a big middle finger in advance to all the haters and attorneys who will try somehow to find an easy paycheck in this." So maybe he had the best of intentions.
