Looks like Mr. Rock means business.

Kid Rock is ready to make changes regarding concert ticket pricing.

On Saturday, December 14, the 53-year-old musician — a staunch supporter of Donald Trump — took to his Instagram to let followers know he wants to work with the president-elect's Attorney General nominee, Pam Bondi, to make ticket prices reasonable again.[i]

In his caption, the "All Summer Long" singer explained he plans to go after the people and companies trying to charge absurd prices for concert tickets.

"What a treat to break bread with our soon to be Attorney General @pambondi. I look forward to working with her and the whole administration to help fix the fiasco of buying concert tickets," the Michigan native wrote.

"Gonna open a can of whoop ass on the bots, scalpers, venues, ticketing companies, managers and artists alike who rip off and deceive the public with the horse s**t that has gone on for decades and only gotten worse. Whoever in charge that wants to help fix this, get your ass to the table, otherwise, F**k Around and Find Out. Kid Rock #MAGA," he concluded

This guy?   https://tasteofcountry.com/kid-rock-scalping-concert-tickets/

Ya, he doesn?t seem to be the most ethical guy, but it does look like he has the ear of Trump so maybe he and the new AG might be able to shake up the ticketing industry.

I would love for them to go after Live Nation/Ticketmaster.

There?s an actual case against LN at the moment.
