The day his new album, “Born Free,” hit stores, Kid Rock announced the first series of dates for his 2011 “Born Free” tour.
Things kick off with a 40th birthday party Rock is throwing for himself at Detroit’s Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions football team. The stadium will be renamed “40 Field” in honor of the occasion.
The special show will include surprise guests and plenty of surprises. Tickets for the Detroit celebration will go on sale November 26th, tickets for the tour will go on sale December 3rd and 4th, depending on the market, through all the usual outlets.
Rock plans to add more dates later in the year; he’ll be backed by his Twisted Brown Trucker Band.
