WTF?
Alright, Kid Rock's on and...he can't sing. Seriously, he can't sing, there's no tune there, there's no change in the pitch of his voice. Now get ready to be really sad: Jerry Lee Lewis is playing piano and singing back up. Jerry Lee Lewis. You can actually hear his backing vocals going above and below the douchebag's. He is still a great piano player, he's still a great singer. Sure he married his 13 year old cousin. But that was...okay, I have no justification for that. But he's Jerry Lee Lewis! Let the man perform alone. Did they think Jerry Lee would make Kid Rock bearable? That's not how it works. Caviar don't make shit taste classy, shit makes caviar taste like shit. Also, all these cosmopolitan country acts straight from the Nashville factory labels that sound like Top 40 are exactly what pushed Johnny off the charts in the '70s only to return when the rock world embraced him in the 1990s (Nashville never came back to him in his lifetime). So screw that too. Allison Krauss though? She's superb, let's just have her do the whole show.
Update: Kris Kristoferson and Nora Jones are pretty good too. I mean, you gotta give it up for Bobby McGee himself.
