kid rock fan club, consider me your newest member

last night, via invitation from our guest-listed friends, doug and kelly, i attended my first kid rock show. this was actually a part of a promo for this year's 50th grammy awards ceremony, but for me, it was a kid rock show in a tiny venue (compared to his normal tours). the granada is a favorite concert venue of mine, small and intimate. i was mildly excited about the show beforehand - i like kid rock, he has some fun songs, but i would never have labeled myself a "fan." early on i was rolling my eyes at most of the crowd, feeling like i was at a nascar race more than a show at the granada - basically i was being a snob.

it took about ten seconds for those feelings to wear off. i am very suprised to be saying this, but like an easily persuaded child, last night i became an instant fan of kid rock. that was the most fun i have had in a very long time and definitely the most fun i have had at a concert in years (all U2 shows are held aside for obvious reasons). kid rock is an entertainer and i can't believe i am saying this, but he is also an incredible musician. that man is a ROCK STAR! i'm totally on board next time he goes on tour. sign me up for the fan club!!!
