• Detroit saved by Kid Rock beer

  Craig GroblerDuring my first (and only) semester at Missouri Southern State University, I had a roommate who would play Kid Rock at ear-splitting levels every morning in the shower. Since he was on the football team, that meant his wake-up calls were around 6 a.m. After a talk with him about the music and a discussion about him being a linebacker versus me being a short communications major, we both agreed to the following: I was going to shut my mouth, he was going to play Kid Rock whenever he

• Strum and Twang: A Look At This Week's Top Five Country Singles

  Rap and rock are about rappers and rockers, about virtuosity or bad-assedness or some other salable trait specific to an individual performer. Country hates all that. Instead, it takes as its subject its own listeners. The only boasting you'll hear from the hatted pros concerns their audience: that they're decent, humble, and everything that's right with America.

• Concert Review: Kid Rock and Lynyrd Skynyrd at Capitol Federal Park at Sandstone

  I don't have a gun, a trucker hat or any cutoff denim clothing. I refuse to drink PBR, I drive a Japanese car and honestly, motorcycles kind of freak me out.
