I never considered myself a huge Kid Rock fan. I like most of his music and will listen to it when it comes on. I have passed on a few of his shows but have heard he puts on an awesome show. Now that I know he is a stand up guy i might have to make the next show that comes to town.

Yeah, all reports are he is a stand up guy. Good to see. And one of "us." I am not a huge fan of his music by any stretch, but he has talent, is a good guy, and leans conservative. He is A OK in my book. Exactly this. I'm not a huge fan of his music either, but he is talented and an awesome guy. This proves it. He doesn't have to do things like this but he does. |

seems like I have heard he makes a bunch of trips to visit with our troops
almost as much as Robin Williams did... thats all I need to know about him |
|
|
I guess I can cut him some slack on having to sit through all those damn Chevy commercials with his "Born Free" song blaring in the back ground. Good on him.
|

Good on him. I prefer his rap/rock stuff compared to his country crap, but that is awesome and made that guys night.
Too bad more "celebrities" aren't like this. |

Kid Rock has a history of doing good things like this. Whether it be visiting the troops overseas (many times), buying a soldier a home or singing happy birthday to this young man!
He's definitely a cool dude. |

I saw Kid Rock in concert years ago with Metallica in Minneapolis. A coworker of mine was at the concert also. His kid was some kind of medical condition (asthma attack or something in the like) and some how Kid Rock found out while Metallica was playing. Kid Rock came out, riding a small scooter, from his dressing room and made sure everything was OK with my coworkers kid. Kid Rock sounds like a great guy.

He's a good man, he does a lot for the folks of the US and during the holidays he gives out gift cards to needy families and many other things.

We had a young man in the town we moved from that had Down's Syndrome, his mom owned a pet grooming place and he worked in there bathing dogs... I was in there one day and he was bathing a pooch (under supervision, mom was in the room) I have never seen someone that was as gentle and did such a thorough job as he did. He was in heaven just being useful, he was talking to the dog he was bathing and the dog was being super still and just absorbing all the loving he was getting. View Quote I am amazed by the sense dogs have for this sort of thing. My nephew has Down's Syndrome. My in-law's have a small dog that is very playful and will jump up on people and can play somewhat rough some times. The dog will not do that to my nephew. The dog is very calm around him and very gentle. And the video is awesome. Pure joy! |

My sister in law worked in a small cafe in the Bitterroot Valley during grad school and waitressed for him and his crew. That was probably 11-12 years ago, and she said he was very gracious and a great tipper.

He is never in Detroit without his gun:
IPad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaEau5_LiCo Love his music and he's a cool dude in my book. |

Took a page from Hasselhoffs book!
Its nice to see someone not letting fame get to them. Good people still exist. |

He's done more USO tours than almost anyone else.
Last year I was in Vegas and talking to the shuttle driver for Bell Trans, asked him how many limo's they had. "800 of them, I'm usually driving a limo, drove for Kid Rock last weekend" Which Kid Rock was in town. "oh yeah, how was that?" "That guy is the coolest person I've ever met, I was instantly part of the entourage, had dinner with him and his band (some high end place) spent the night with him hanging out rather than waiting at the curb". He also said that Kid Rock kept trying to get him to drink, said the last thing he needed was a DUI while hauling Kid Rock around LOL. The LA NAACP couple years ago were ripping into Kid Rock because he uses a rebel flag in some of his shows and he's racist. Odd part is he was just a guest of honor at the Detroit NAACP yearly dinner LOL. For year's he's had a black female drummer, he's now got a black guy doing back up vocals and his kid is half black. To say he's racist is just |

Quoted: Also, there was this: KID ROCK BUYS SOLDIER’S FAMILY A NEW HOME Macomb Township — Army Sgt. Davin Dumar gave a lot to his country and people like Kid Rock wanted to thank him. On Saturday in Macomb Township, Kid Rock joined Dan Wallrath, founder of Operation Finally Home, and representatives of the Pulte Group to present Dumar and his wife Dana, with a free new home. Rock and members of the Dumar family waited inside a Pulte Homes model home to surprise the young Mount Clemens couple. As they waited quietly for the couple to enter, Rock joked, "Don’t anybody screw this up and say happy birthday.” Dumar and his wife were shocked to see Rock, their family and the media waiting in the living room of the model home. As the couple entered, the crowd listened quietly as just before entering the Dumars told the Pulte Homes representative they liked the location because it was close to family. They are going to be starting a family soon and would be needing babysitters, the couple said. When they entered the living room Rock and others clapped. Rock told Dumar they were chosen to receive a new home built especially for them. "We are all grateful for your service to our country,” said Rock. He's OK in my book. View Quote Awesome!!!

Quoted: I think he showed up overseas, with Robin Williams and Gary Sinise, on every one of my trips over there. So yeah, I think he's a stand up guy! View Quote |
