Others, on the other hand, have condemned the tour as divisive, claiming that Kid Rock and Shelton are alienating fans who disagree with their political stance. One reviewer said,
“This is just catering to one side and adding fuel to the fire.” “Music should be about uniting people, not further dividing them.”
Shelton and Kid Rock, however, don’t seem to be bothered by the criticism. Kid Rock commented, “Don’t buy a ticket if you don’t like it,” in a subsequent post. That’s precisely why we’re not here to satisfy everyone.
Shelton maintains that the tour is more about honoring principles that he feels have been overlooked than politics, despite detractors’ claims that it is politically tinged.
Shelton assured supporters, “This tour is about freedom, family, and fun—it’s not about politics.” “All we want is to enjoy ourselves and play music without feeling the need to restrict ourselves.”
Shelton is known for being an approachable, down-to-earth celebrity who has made no secret of his desire to keep things lighthearted and easy.
