Kid Rock scores big with the 'rents So I was watching this hockey game the other day - Red Wings vs. Nashville - and during the intermission, Kid Rock shows up. Of all people. And my parents are in there watching, and I guess I thought maybe it'd be a little awkward. True to form, Kid Rock is wasted when they interview him. He was pretty hilarious though...

"Did you ever play hockey when you were a kid? I mean, you're from Detroit."

"Yeah man, we kids would get together and put on our hats and mitts and figure skates and shoot pucks at each other. It was lots of fun."

"Is that right?"

"Yeah man, we were poor, though. We couldn't afford haaawwkeee skates."

"So are you enjoying the game, Mr. Rock?"

"Oh yeah, definitely, man! But you know what? They need to bring Stroh's back! Remember Stroh's?" (Gulps the rest of what was a giant glass of beer).

...my parents couldn't stop laughing. And I kept wondering, didn't he grab his crotch at the Superbowl when...you know, Janet Jackson did her thing? Or am I thinking about Michael Jackson grabbing his crotch several superbowls ago when he was slightly less weird?

Anyway, speaking of dirty old men, I was thinking of covering that Kennedy song...you know, nobody loves you, like your momma loves you, but who's lovin your momma? I am, I am! Maybe at parties...I don't want to wreck my bleary-eyed, downer, take-yourself-too-seriously stage persona that has done so well for me.
