put on what I felt to be a great show. After they weredone, I thought that the eighteen dollars I spent to buy a ticket was already well worth it. Fuel has many songs on the radio, so the fans sang along and seemed to have a good time. I also found myself getting extremely into their performance at times, and screaming outtheir lyrics in unison.

On the up side, I enjoyed one of their songsa lot. It is called “All Lit Up”. It gained great airplay on the radio a couple of years ago,and I actually have it in my collection at home. When Buckcherry performed this song Ifound myself jumping up and down along with the crowd. It is a real mover, and I relayenjoyed it. Buckcherry exited the stage after a mediocre performance. While we waitedonce more, loads of fans seemed to filter into the arena. This time Everyone seemed tohead straight for our general location. I asked my friends if they felt crowded also, butthey replied that it was all part of the experience. So we stayed. Finally, the act all hadbeen waiting for, Kid Rock. Kid Rock and his crew entered the stage with an explosion. They were loud, outrageous, and out of control.. Their performance took me by greatsurprise. I had not expected this much energy on he fans’ part. As Kid Rock started torock, the fans around...
