Kid Rock is deciding to change the name of his upcoming tour after being sued by the owners of Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus.

The tour was going to be called “The Greatest Show On Earth”, but you know, trademark infringement and stuff.

According to Rolling Stone, after Feld Entertainment filed a lawsuit against Rock he said,

“While I firmly believe that I am entitled under the First Amendment to name my tour after my song, I have changed the tour name because I did not want this lawsuit to distract me or my fans from focusing on what is important in my upcoming tour – my music.”

The show must go on – but it will now be called the “American Rock ‘N’ Roll Tour”.
