Kid Rock says God will "cut down" journalists from the "fake liberal media" for reporting on his $5,000 tour tickets



Kid Rock has said that God will “cut down” the “fake liberal media” who reported on his $5,000 (£3,714) tour tickets.

Earlier this week, tickets for the country star’s upcoming ‘Freedom 250’ tour went on sale, and fans were surprised to see some high prices for “first class” packages. Those who wanted to nab front row tickets would have to pay a whopping $5,000 at every date on the tour, while second row tickets were priced at $4,000 a pop.

The pattern continues for $3,000 for the third row, $2,000 for the fourth row, and $1,000 for the fifth row. No added benefits are apparently listed for purchasing tickets for the first five rows.

Now, Kid Rock has responded to the media that reported on said prices, taking to X to write: “The fake liberal media says I’m charging $5,000 for front-row tickets.”

He then goes on to confirm that it is indeed what he’s charging for the top face-value tickets, but adds: “They know damn well that’s not the full story.”

As if there's a God in the first place. But that's a topic for another forum, I suppose.

though those people weren't shelling out thousands of dollars to see him. Who has that kind of money to throw around?

11. Maybe Kid Rock bought the Ark of the Covenant and can wheel it out to smite the unrighteous himself.

I would actually pay for a ticket to experience that. Just don't look at it.

He can't even sue them because they told the truth it's not a lie.

He's pathetic

that's it. No question about it. Speaking for a deity is the pinnacle of vanity.

For the record, all those "special" tickets are still available. You damn libruls obviously don't appreciate the fine talents of Mr. Rock and whatever the fuck a *checks notes* Big & Rich is. Yeah it's right at the start of rainy season in an outside venue, but dammit when fate provides you the opportunity to pay $5000 for front row seats to see Dirtbag McSpaghettiArms lip synch his way through lyrics about the pleasures of underage girls, you thank your Coors Light God and participate.
