Speaking of the LCA, here’s the last show I saw there.
Kid Rock Brings Two High-Powered Shows Back Home To Detroit
Kid Rock played two packed shows at the Little Caesars Arena over the weekend. As always, he poured everything out onto the stage and no one left disappointed. The Twisted Brown Trucker band was on point, ripping through every era of “Rock” from “Devil Without A Cause” material, right through last year’s “Bad Reputation” album.
For me, there’s a circle of friends I only see at a Kid Rock show. From his team – band, security and others – to mutual friends of mine and Rock’s I’ve interacted with throughout the years. It’s always great to catch up!
A big Thanks to everyone who swung by the broadcast location both nights. Awesome to see and hang with everyone!
Thanks to Darryl Brooks for some killer pictures from his seat way up by the stage.

Meltdown started on the mighty WRIF on the evening of Halloween, 1995. Technically, his first on-air shift was the morning of November 1st. Moving to the Motor City from Buffalo, N.Y., he has built a career and family. Over his almost three-decade stint at RIFF, he's had the privilege to work with some of the biggest personalities in Detroit radio history. He boasts of being just the second-afternoon drive jock in the station's illustrious 53-year history.
Along with his love for rock music and attending concerts, he's also an avid Harley-Davidson enthusiast and hockey player. He plays year-round and manages to squeeze in a few charity games throughout the year. Meltdown writes about the Detroit Red Wings, rock music, and Detroit concert venues.
