Uncle Kracker Explains The Rock Star Life To Us

How many of us have heard musician gripe about how their life is just so complex? What with the pain of touring, seeing the world, meeting millions of people, making loads of cash, recording albums on their own time and the ever-dreadful interviews, how do they survive?

Worrying as to whether or not Uncle Kracker (now a solo artist, but best known as Kid Rock's DJ) is on the wagon to sellout with the success of his debut album Double Wide, we here at ChartAttack asked him what life is like as a rock star. Fear not, little rockers. This boy ain't gonna give up the debauchery any time soon.

"Other musicians make it too dramatic. It's like all of the Pearl Jams and Nirvanas a few years ago. What the fuck are you complaining about? If you don't want to do it, don't do it. Go back to the fucking garage and play there. Give the money back," he says. "Those kids were waiting for Eddie Vedder to do something — anything, and he flaked out. He had them in the palm of his hand and he didn't do a fucking thing. He could have started a revolution or something. That's why Kid Rock has taken off so well. He's the real deal. He lives the lifestyle kids want to see their rock idols living. You know that when you step off the plane and see a newspaper headline quoting Kid Rock: 'I Came To Fuck Bitches, Snort Cocaine And Get Laid' in big, black bold that something big is gonna go down. For a long time."
