Kid Rock, Kellie Pickler, and John McCain heading to Sturgis

This year's Sturgis Harley Davidson rally will be a little different. ArgusLeader.com:

A Sturgis rally expected to be smaller than recent years still will be an interesting cultural crossroads when KISS, Kid Rock and Sen. John McCain all are in town at the same time.

"The single biggest thing people ask me about is Senator McCain," says Rod Woodruff, founder of the Buffalo Chip Campground where the presumed Republican presidential nominee will take part in a ceremony to honor military veterans Monday.

McCain will find himself the opening act for Kellie Pickler, who will perform when the veterans tribute concludes, and for the evening's headliner, Kid Rock. Sturgis Mayor Maury LaRue sends his apologies for not being able to hobnob with his fellow public servant.

Readers of this blog know I admire Kellie Pickler and Kid Rock for their trips to the Persian Gulf to entertain US troops.
