The closing night of Kid Rock's recent run of sold-out shows at Detroit's DTE Energy Music Theatre was one for the record books.

It took two decades, Eddie Murphy and a five-year break from the Top 10 for Bob Seger to score his first, and only, No. 1 hit. On top of all that, after recording for the same company for 20 years, that hit single was on a different label -- a one-off song cut for a soundtrack album.

George Jackson, who wrote countless rock and soul songs, died on Sunday morning (April 14) at his home in Ridgeland, Miss. after a year-long bout with cancer. He was 68. Jackson is best known as the co-writer of Bob Seger's classic 'Old Time Rock and Roll.'

Evie Branan, the 79 year old Michigan woman whose first words after emerging from a coma that lasted five years were, "I want to go to a Bob Seger concert," got her wish and more last night (April 11) when she met the rock legend backstage.

Flint, Michigan native Evie Branan, 79, suddenly awoke from a 5-year coma on May 7, 2011, and her first uttered words were, "I want to go to a Bob Seger concert." It's been two years since and Evie is finally getting her chance to attend that concert.

There he is, on the road again. Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band are off and running on their 2013 US tour. The tour got off to a good start last night (Feb. 27)  in Toledo, Ohio. Seger and band pulled out hit after hit, with the usual suspects like 'Night Moves' and 'Turn The Page' as well as deeper catalog numbers like 'Beautiful Loser' and 'Ramblin' Gamblin' Man' gracing the two-hour show.

While he works toward the completion of his 17th studio album -- and first since 2006's 'Face the Promise' -- Bob Seger is also warming up for another run of tour dates that will see him back on the road with the Silver Bullet Band throughout the winter and early spring.

In a move that seemed somehow inevitable, rock legend Bob Seger and the irrepressible Kid Rock have announced that they are teaming up for a pair of shows in March. The rockers have been friends since 2000. Kid Rock was on hand to induct Seger into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, and he also made a guest appearance on his 2006 'Face the Promise' album...

Bob Seger‘s career as a songwriter was acknowledged on Thursday (June 14) when he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. The ceremony was held at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York.

Typically a Hall of Fame nod signifies someone who is coming toward the end of their career, but that’s hardly the case for Detroit legend Bob Seger.

Forget the final three, the ladies have spoken — Phillip “Phillip” Phillips will be your host this evening, your prom king, quarterback and master of the boudoir. Girls upfront love this guy, cheered for him a few too many times during the night’s final performance, and hell, he’s why they’re sitting upfront in the first place. Oh, he also sang ‘We’ve Got Tonight’ by Bob Seger.

Awards, awards…someone is always handing out awards! The Songwriters Hall of Fame has announced their inductees for 2012 and the list includes Bob Seger, Gordon Lightfoot and Jim Steinman. Canadian born Lightfoot, known for a string of hits such as ‘Sundown,’ ‘If You Could Read My Mind,’ ‘Carefree Highway’ and ‘The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald,’ began his career in a manner similar to that of ma
