Remember the Waffle House deal?  Kid Rock, aka Bob Ritchie, was sentenced to a year's probation and a fine of $1000, plus eighty hours of community service and sixty hours of anger management counseling for his part in it:

The October incident involved a predawn fight at the suburban restaurant after Rock's gig at Atlanta's Tabernacle. According to reports, a man named Harlen Akins, 39, got into a verbal altercation with a female friend who was accompanying Rock's crew. The argument escalated into a physical scuffle in the parking lot with Rock and five members of his entourage, during which Akins allegedly broke a window at the restaurant. Rock and his crew allegedly hopped on their tour bus and drove off, but cops stopped them and arrested Rock and the five other men on misdemeanor battery charges. After Rock pleaded no contest to one count of simple battery in the case, four other counts of battery were dropped. Guitarist Jason E. Krause and group member James W. Murphy pleaded no contest and got similar sentences, while charges were dropped against the other three men. Rock's attorney said his client was "not terribly unhappy" with the sentence, though he still didn't think the brawl was his fault.
What?  Bob don't need no anger management.  Level-headed and serene, that's our Bob.  He's so laid back he's practically comatose.  He just shoulda got outta there faster after he chased everyone once around the parking lot in his tour bus, that's all.  Uneasy rider indeed. In case you're wondering just what did happen, here's some video of the fight.  Six on one, huh?  Make up your own minds.
