Single Valentine's Day

So, it's that time of year again. That time when everything changes to pink and red. Little paper hearts and cutout cupids stick to store windows and the silver wrappers on Hershey's Kisses become a red shiny color.

A time of year to show your significant other that you love them.

These soul brothers play their hearts out without taking breaks between songs as they sweat in bassist Chris Barth's tiny basement.

Kid Rock has little to be 'Cocky' about

The musical realm of Kid Rock is a place where white trash reigns supreme, intelligence is non-existent and it's cool to wear wife-beaters and derby hats.
