"Surely you would agree that there is a significant difference between merely saying it from time to time and recording it for the ages. Most of us have said things that we would never commit to paper.

Regardless, it's not so much the words as it is the concepts, the "pictures he paints" with his lyrics. From what I've read here, there's little of value there, mostly a lot of filth. "

Quite frankly, I am not familiar with Kid Rock's lyrics. I understand that they're crude, at least on some of the songs. Doesn't matter to me. I don't listen to them. But...and this is important: Young adults listen to Kid Rock. Our troops in Iraq seem to like Kid Rock. He apparently supported Bush strongly during the campaign.

It's the Bush twins' party: I suppose they can invite whomever they wish to perform there. I advise not attending if you don't like the kind of music that will be played there. Myself? I wasn't invited.

Let's move on to stuff that really matters and forget which popular performer is playing at some party.

Me, I'm just looking forward to that Glee Club performance. </sarcasm>

I had already done so before I started -- and obviously before I finished -- my post to you. ;O)

Sheesh, I seem to recall quite a bit of noise being made here when Whoopi Goldberg used foul language at "some party." Heck, people here were shocked, shocked, I tell you, when a song by Billy Joel was played at a venue where Hillary Clinton was going to be arriving for a senate campaign event. It seems the particular song had the word "masturbate" in it.

Kid Rock is okay because he's for Bush, and the twins should be allowed to have a little fun, and even though this is part of the inaugural it's not like he's going to be on the podium for the swearing in, so who cares. At least he's our vulgar white trash rap star, unlike that no good Eminem.
