Kid Rock walked offstage after cursing the audience out during a performance at Bon Jovi keyboardist David Bryan’s birthday bash.
The party went down at Jon Bon Jovi’s JBJ’s Nashville bar, but Kid Rock became irate over the crowd’s low engagement.
Rock started to sing his classic “Proud Mary” but the crowd wouldn’t sing along or clap even though he stopped the band to ask them to.

In the video clip, the audience is barely moving, seemingly umimpressed with his performance. They did cheer loudly for David Bryan during his keyboard solos.
“F–k them. F–k them. Hey, hey, stop,” he said. “If you ain’t gonna clap, we ain’t gonna sing. That’s how it’s gonna go.”
The crowd did start to sing but quickly stopped again, prompting the rocker to throw a tantrum and exit the stage.
“You know what, f–k y’all. You ain’t gonna clap; I’m gone,” he said before quickly making his exit.
