KID ROCK STORMED OFF STAGE because the audience didn’t clap: “F**K YA’LL… I’m gone”
Kid Rock cut his performance in Nashville short on Saturday (February 8) after he got upset that the audience didn’t clap enough, leading to an outburst from the musician.
The incident took place not at one of his own shows, but at a birthday celebration for Bon Jovi keyboardist David Bryan, at which Rock made a special guest appearance.
Rock was singing Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary” when he momentarily stopped the performance, getting upset at the lack of crowd participation.
“F**k them. F**k them. Hey, hey, stop,” he said as he shoved aside a female singer of the band, which included birthday boy David Bryan. He then demonstrated what he wanted the crowd to do. “If you ain’t gonna clap, we ain’t gonna sing. That’s how it’s gonna go.”
A few people in the audience then started to clap along as the band resumed playing, but that only lasted briefly as Rock decided he was done.
“You know what, f**k y’all,” he said. “You ain’t gonna clap, I’m gone.” He then stormed off the stage.
The band seemed shocked, with Bryan looking at the audience with a confused expression after Rock’s departure.
