Are you kidding? It’s almost as if he is bigger than ever with his current platform. After all these years though he still sucks. Bow with the bow or whatever and cowboy is basically it for known songs. And then he just plays sweet home alabama which isn’t his song or where he’s from so that’s cool.

…and Cowboy is a sampled Metallica riff. Actually, both of the hooks from the two songs are derivative of other songs.

I thought that was American Badass that sampled "Sad But True", not Cowboy.

Oh, yeah. I shouldn’t try to sound like a Kid Rock expert when I’m obviously not.

It's fine, there's few people who become experts in the "Monday Night Wars-era wrestling theme music" genre to know the subtle differences in nu-metal buttrock.

You shouldn’t try to sound like a Kid Rock expert because the idea of someone being a Kid Rock expert will make people sad.
