What a great break for music lovers.Kid Rock Cancels Shows in Texas as 'Over Half the Band' Battles COVID
Kid Rock's two shows that were slated to take place in Fort Worth, Texas, on Friday and Saturday (Aug. 27-2 have been canceled due to COVID-19.
The rocker, rapper and sometimes country singer was scheduled to perform at Billy Bob's Texas in Fort Worth on those nights. He turned to Twitter on Thursday (Aug. 26) to give fans the news of the cancellations, writing, "I am pi--ed. Over half the band has f--king covid (not me), and before u s--t for brains bloggers and media trolls run your mouths, many of them, like me, have been vaccinated."
Kid Rock goes on to say that he wanted to keep the dates anyway and "at least try to entertain u good folks," even if he had to play an acoustic set, deejay or juggle.
"But seriously, s--t is way out of my hands on this one," he adds. "I am beyond upset and you real ones know I would never cancel if I absolutely didn’t have too. For this, I am sorry."
Kid Rock returned to the stage for the first time since quarantine began with a headlining set at the Sturgis Buffalo Chip during the 2021 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, S.D., on Aug. 8. He turned to social media afterward to share a picture of the packed, maskless crowd, telling fans how much he had missed performing and adding a defiant message.
"There is nothing the mainstream media or internet and social media trolls can do but look at this pic and weep, knowing they will never beat us," he wrote, adding, "F--k them, love to you all."

He'd only recently returned to the stage.tasteofcountry.com
they're back and strutting like peacocks around town today. they're so annoying.Sturgis you say...
the only way to make a dent is more vaccine and the way to do that is through removal from society. private businesses will soon be vaccine card at the door.Welp … here we got another anti vax Floridian eating at hell’s table.
Florida radio host who called himself ‘Mr Anti-Vax’ dies of Covid-19
A conservative radio host from Florida who criticised coronavirus vaccination efforts – and called himself “Mr Anti-Vax” – before contracting Covid-19 himself has died, his station said on Saturday.
When Bernier was hospitalised with Covid-19, three weeks ago, WNDB operations manager Mark McKinney told local media: “If you’ve listened to his show, you’ve heard him talk about how anti-vaccine he is on the air.”
In December, Bernier told one guest: “I’m not taking it … Are you kidding me? Mr Anti-Vax? Jeepers.”
The Volusia county sheriff, Mike Chitwood, said the station told him Bernier, 65, died on Saturday night.
“I’m numb,” Chitwood told the Daytona Beach News-Journal. “To me, this is a death in the family.”
As the contagious Delta variant spreads, states led by Republicans resistant to public health mandates, Florida among them, are struggling with a surge of hospitalisations and deaths.
The overwhelming majority of hospitalisations and deaths from Covid-19 in the US are among unvaccinated people.
According to Johns Hopkins University, nearly 637,000 people have died of Covid-19 in the US.
Covid deaths among conservative media figures who opposed vaccination or other public health mandates continue to attract national and global media attention.
Now …. You would think conservatives / anti vax spreaders would see “ the forest thru the trees “ as it were.
But no … bodies will continue to pile and at the end , scratch their fucking heads in disbelief.
Stupidity is the catalyst of Covid.

I used to cough to hide a fart. Now I fart to hide a cough.so do i. if i hear a sneezer in aisle 5, i skip it.
Is this something you trust? Are you sure that it is legit and not just just non-peer reviewed nonsense from radicalized nuts that is designed to confuse people into tricking themselves into thinking that they should stay unsafe during a pandemic?“SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees had a 13.06-fold (95% CI, 8.08 to 21.11) increased risk for breakthrough infection with the Delta variant compared to those previously infected, when the first event (infection or vaccination) occurred during January and February of 2021. The increased risk was significant (P<0.001) for symptomatic disease as well. When allowing the infection to occur at any time before vaccination (from March 2020 to February 2021), evidence of waning natural immunity was demonstrated, though SARS-CoV-2 naïve vaccinees had a 5.96-fold (95% CI, 4.85 to 7.33) increased risk for breakthrough infection and a 7.13-fold (95% CI, 5.51 to 9.21) increased risk for symptomatic disease. SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees were also at a greater risk for COVID-19-related-hospitalizations compared to those that were previously infected.”
“This study demonstrated that natural immunity confers longer lasting and stronger protection against infection, symptomatic disease and hospitalization caused by the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, compared to the BNT162b2 two-dose vaccine-induced immunity. Individuals who were both previously infected with SARS-CoV-2 and given a single dose of the vaccine gained additional protection against the Delta variant.”

Edit:
Also interesting is how that paper does not evaluate people with both doses and had a break through illness for their risk of another breakthrough, I wonder why that is? I think that the answer to that might be worth thinking about.
So no you don't have any reason to actually trust that information?
Lol why wouldn’t I? I don’t understand what you’re getting at here. There is plenty of evidence that natural immunity is just as good, even better than so-called vaccination.So no you don't have any reason to actually trust that information?
I was under the impression that a vaccine is a preparation of killed microorganisms, living attenuated organisms, or living fully virulent organisms that is administered to produce or artificially increase immunity to a particular disease.So you're super fact based, but then use words like "so-called vaccination", as if to imply that vaccinations don't do anything. Can you explain why you phrased it that way?
Just saying that doesn't make it true man.Lol why wouldn’t I? I don’t understand what you’re getting at here. There is plenty of evidence that natural immunity is just as good, even better than so-called vaccination.
This is at best outdated from the impression I am under.I was under the impression that a vaccine is a preparation of killed microorganisms, living attenuated organisms, or living fully virulent organisms that is administered to produce or artificially increase immunity to a particular disease.
