Kid Rock’s Rock the Country Tour Heads to Red States Only, “Only God-Fearing Patriots Allowed” (Page 2 ) | November 14, 2024

Stops on the tour include small towns like Livingston, Louisiana, and Ocala, Florida—areas that Rock believes embody the traditional American values he seeks to celebrate. The schedule, which spans from April to July, will also bring the festival to places like York, Pennsylvania, and Ashland, Kentucky, each of which has been carefully chosen for its “down-home, red-blooded American spirit.”

Kid Rock has made it clear that he chose red states for a reason. “This is for the fans who still wave the American flag with pride, who still believe in faith and freedom,” he said. “I don’t need to take this festival to places where people don’t respect those values.”

Critics argue that Rock’s decision to exclude blue states is divisive, but he sees it as the opposite. “This isn’t about dividing anyone. It’s about uniting the people who already feel like they don’t have a place in today’s culture,” he explained. “We’re giving them that place, no apologies.”

The lineup of artists reflects this ethos. Alongside Kid Rock and Nickelback, country icons like Travis Tritt, Tracy Lawrence, and Aaron Lewis will take the stage. For Rock, the tour isn’t about catering to every taste—it’s about speaking directly to those who already resonate with his message. “If you’re here, you’re family,” Rock said. “We’re all on the same team.”
