Kid Rock arrested in DeKalb after fight at Waffle House

While promoting his latest CD, Kid Rock vowed he was putting his days of made-for-the-tabloid antics behind him. The man from Michigan says he wants to be known for his music, not as a gossip-column item.

This weekend in Atlanta, Kid Rock managed to do both.

Saturday night, he rocked a sold-out Tabernacle at a show supporting "Rock N Roll Jesus," currently the No. 1 album in the country and the first chart-topper of his 17-year career.

A few hours later, Kid Rock, who calls his genre-bending blend of country, rap and southern rock "hick-Hop," was arrested after police said he and his entourage beat up a customer — at a local Waffle House.

The sum of his career should have him working at a Waffle House.



Mug Shot of the tool smiling like a bugman.

:eyes:

It seems a cosmic path has gone full circle. :-) MKJ

It's wrong on so many levels.

for the politics, appearance, idiocy and music of detritus like Kid Rock and Ted Nugent. We can't do everything right. :hide:

I didn't realize they were both from Michigan, though.

Alice Cooper, El Debarge, Eminem, Glenn Frey, Kid Rock, Madonna, Jason Newsted (of Metallica), Ted Nugent, Diana Ross, Bob Seger, Del Shannon, Uncle Kracker, Stevie Wonder, and......

MOTOWN! :)



(I found all of those names here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Michigan_musicians )

Except the Terrible Two, of course.

It's funny how things change. In the 70s, when Nugent would play Grand Rapids, the fundies would protest outside his concert, holding up signs and such, about what a pig Ted was (I guess "Wango Tango" was too much for their clean, dutch hearts). On one occasion, Ted ripped one of their signs and threw it in the Grand River (the concert venue used to be the old Welsh Auditorium, which I assume is long gone).

Iggy Pop and MC5!

I hear his public service announcements for business opportunities in Michigan all the time on XM.

Kudos to Mr. Daniels for not forgetting his roots.

Americans.

Please don't demean Waffle House just because some celebrity a**hole got into a fight at one.

I don't know if I can say the same about Kid Rock, though.

I missed that one.... better go do some reading.

He embodies the loud, obnoxious bully culture, in both his professional and personal life.

He makes a lot of money, all with having no particular artistic talent.

:shrug: MKJ

... he DID work his ass off for a long time to get there, though. He played the "starving artist" for many years before he got a break. (Doesn't make him any more talented, of course.) :)

It's the same mugshot, but in context, you can see where he belongs.

(No, I'm not attacking the down and out, just a useless tool.)

;( ;( ;( ;( ;( ;( ;(

Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears are just as un-talented as him and come from the same pool of white trash.

The tool should make some calls.

Kid is pure DU. ;)

And this is for the questions that don't have any answers
The midnight glancers and the topless dancers
The candid freaks, cars packed with speakers
The G's with the forties and the chicks with beepers
The Northern Lights and the Southern Comfort
And it don't even matter if the veins are punctured
All the crackheads, the critics, the cynics
And all my heros in the Methodone Clinic
All you bastards at the IRS
For the crooked cops and the cluttered desks
For the shots of jack and the caps of meth
Half pints of love and the fifths of stress
For the hookers all tricking out in Hollywood
And for my hoods of the world misunderstood
I said it's all good and it's all in fun
Now get in the pit and try to love someone
