A Kid Rock concert in Minot, North Dakota got quite rowdy after severe weather prevented the singer from performing.

Concertgoers were extremely displeased after hearing the cancellation news. Chaos ensued, with fans throwing beer cans and trash at the stage. One attendee rushed the stage and was tackled by security before being escorted from the venue in handcuffs.

Kid Rock spoke about the cancellation in a Twitter post. “SO PISSED OFF we could not play for a sold out crowd tonight in Minot, ND (because of high winds) – I know it sucks but none of us can control mother nature,” he wrote. “Please be safe leaving and take care of each other. -Kid Rock.”

The North Dakota State Fair released a statement regarding the show’s cancellation.

“The cancellation of the North Dakota State Fair Kid Rock Concert was a decision made by Ward County sheriff, state fair management, Kid Rock’s management, the show’s producer, and the stage production manager. Due to the safety concerns of the high winds, lightning, and severe weather in the area, the Kid Rock concert was cancelled as it posed a serious threat to the safety of those individuals attending or setting-up the event.”

Kid Rock’s Bad Reputation Tour will be stopping in Cheyenne, Wyoming for his next show. The tour is set to run until early October.
