I’m all for “branching out” and reaching “the kids” when it comes to tech marketing, but this is a bit much. Kid Richie Rock-Anderson will be performing at the CEDIA trade show in Denver on Saturday, September 16. For those not in the know:
CEDIA is an international trade association of companies that specialize in designing and installing electronic systems for the home.
This means hundreds of chino-wearing, custom-install polo shirted tech geeks will be starting in rapt wonder at a smalltall man from the country wearing a porkpie hat and singing “Cadillac Pussy.” Maybe I’m missing the demographic here - I probably am big-time - but wasn’t there a mall for him to open that afternoon?

Couldn’t agree more, John — except for one thing: Kid Rock (Mr. Anderson) isn’t a “small man from the country.” According to one fan site, he is six foot five.
I’m sure those “hundreds of chino-wearing, custom-install polo shirted tech geeks” won’t be expecting to catch of glipse of Mrs. Anderson.
Matthew, he’s not even close to 6 foot 5. Met him at an event last year and he’s no taller than 6 foot, maybe 6 foot 1.
