The tour, in support of the album launch, makes perfect sense because fans will get a chance to see the raw energy and superstar power of his concert up close and personal. "Kid Rock shows are major productions, from pyro to pounding speakers, Littlejohn Coliseum will be a fan-packed hot-house on April 6." Marty Kern, director of major events, said.

"LIVE TRUCKER" finds the multi-platinum Son of Detroit and his band lighting up home state arenas with their genre-smashing high-octane musical brew. The album includes volatile versions of Rock's biggest and baddest hits, from hard-driving faves like "Cowboy" and "You Never Met A Motherf*cker Quite Like Me," to powerful ballads such as "Picture" and "Only God Knows Why." Needless to say, no Kid Rock concert collection would be complete without full- blown takes on Rock's classic anthems, including "Bawitdaba" and "American Bad Ass." "LIVE TRUCKER" features guest appearances from longtime Twisted Brown Trucker members Uncle Kracker and the late great Joe C, as well as the "Redneck Woman" herself, Gretchen Wilson, who joins Rock on-stage for a special rendition of "Picture." In addition, the album includes a previously unreleased cover of the funked-up classic, "Outstanding," originally made famous by the legendary Gap Band. In addition to selling more than 18 million records in the U.S. alone, Kid Rock has proven himself to be an inveterate road warrior, blowing the roofs off of theatres, arenas, and enormodomes on countless cross-country and international tours. With "LIVE TRUCKER," the Pimp of the Nation gives his legion of fans the chance to bring the live experience home, capturing the power and glory of Kid Rock in concert any time they want to hold their lighters high and let the rock loose.
