This would have been perfect for White Trash Wednesday. I don’t know how I missed it. Dammit!
Almost-inauguration-performer Kid Rock got in a scuffle with a D.J. at Christie’s Cabaret in Nashville Tuesday night, then wound up in the slammer.
The fight with the club’s DJ was over the music the DJ was playing, police said.
The DJ, Jay Campos, was punched in the face, police said. He had a red mark on his face and his glasses were broken.
But it didn’t stop there. Rock even managed to get a Vandy rent-a-cop in trouble on his way to another strip club.
At some point, the officer requested and received from Kid Rock his autograph. As the result of an investigation, Vanderbilt determined there was sufficient cause to terminate Officer Juan Minerez for the perception of giving preferential treatment.
Damn! You’d think he was Steve McNair or something.
