The 36-year-old singer, who had earlier played at Atlanta venue The Tabernacle, was dining with his entourage at a nearby branch of the fast food restaurant when Rock became involved in a brawl with a male customer.
Mekka Parish, a spokeswoman for DeKalb County Police Department, said: "Kid Rock and five members of his entourage were involved in a fight with a male customer inside the Waffle House. A male customer recognised a woman with the party and exchanged words with her.
"It escalated to a physical altercation between Kid Rock and that male customer, and moved outside to the parking lot. At one point the customer punched out a restaurant window."
Police were called after the 'Cowboy' singer had left the restaurant. Rock's tour bus was stopped about a mile from the Waffle House and he, along with five members of his entourage, were taken into custody and charged with a misdemeanour charge of simple battery.
After spending 12 hours in DeKalb County Jail, Rock was released on Sunday evening (21.10.07) after posting $1,000 bail.
The male customer involved in the tussle was charged with a felony for smashing the window.
