Kid Rock ends hibernation this winter

Detroit rocker Kid Rock, who has been off the road since late last year, will end his touring hiatus with some early 2006 shows that include a two-night stand in his hometown just prior to the Super Bowl.

So far, Rock has lined up four late January shows, as well as the aforementioned two-night Detroit engagement, set for Feb. 3-4. Tickets for most shows are on sale now, while those for planned stops in Verona, NY; and Dayton, OH are scheduled to hit the box office Saturday (12/10). Details are included below.

To coincide with the tour, Rock is reportedly readying a live album that is expected to surface in February. His most recent release is his 2003 self-titled set, which features his cover of Bad Company's "Feel Like Makin' Love."

Before heading out on the road, Rock plans to cap 2005 with a New Year's Eve appearance at Las Vegas' Jet Mirage Nightclub, during which he's scheduled to a be a guest DJ. More information is posted at his website.
