A summer tour is expected to follow and details will be announced as they are confirmed.

This is Kid Rock’s first tour behind his latest album, Cocky, which debuted in late November. Last year he spent some time on the road with Buckcherry and Fuel supporting The History Of Rock. The 15-date, new year venture saw the bands playing to many sold out crowds in 7,000 – 12,000 capacity venues.

The outing was the first for Kid Rock since August 2000, and the first since the death of his diminutive sidekick Joe C.

Several shows are already on sale, with tickets in the $20 to $30 range.
