(CBS)  Chicago Tribune entertainment columnist Terry Armour was among the "lucky" guests who got to see Kevin Federline perform at the House of Blues in Chicago Wednesday night — the day after the rapper's wife, Britney Spears, filed for divorce.

"It's very surreal to a certain extent," Armour told The Showbuzz, describing the atmosphere at the show. "It's almost like you and everyone else in the room is there watching a train wreck."

Ticket sales were slow for the event, so House of Blues ended up giving them away for free.

A Quote

"He mumbled some stuff and pranced around the stage for about 45 minutes."

Chicago Tribune columnist Terry Armour.
"I just don't get the K-Fed phenomenon," he said. "They gave away all these free tickets, and I really think that a lot of people snapped up the tickets because some of them just wanted to see what the K-Fed thing was about."

So how was the show? "He mumbled some stuff and pranced around the stage for about 45 minutes," said Armour.

The crowd actually reacted quite well, chanting "K-Fed, K-Fed" before he came out.

"At first I thought a lot of it was sarcastic, but they really were cheering him to come out on stage."

Some "haters" did show up, though.

"There were some people there with some signs that were unflattering of Kevin," said Armour. "But I think on the whole, most of the people were there because they either were fans of his — or at least fans of Britney Spears."

Armour said he didn't hear K-Fed talk about Britney directly, because he was on deadline and "thankfully I was able to leave after three songs."

But, People magazine reported that Federline let the females in the crowd know he's now on the prowl

"Hey, I see a lot of fine ladies in here," Federline said. "You know I'm a free man, right, ladies? You wanna dance with a pimp?"

This guy Fed-Ex gives parasites, leeches, vomit and diarrhea a bad name. Where's the retroactive birth control pill when you really need it?

The best part of this dirtbag ran down his momma's @sscrack.

A day after his wife files for divorce and he's trying to pick up chicks. And he's trying to prove to people he's not a jerk!? Great way to start. And he was supposed to be so emotional after he got the text message about the divorce. His ex-girfriend may be telling people to give him a break, but he shows time and time again that he has no class.

And what is it with all these stars text messaging divorce news to their spouses (I believe Jessica Simpson did the same thing to Nick Lachey)? That is just so common. Hey people - grow a spine. If you are going to divorce a person at least you should tell them to their face. Text messages and phone calls are just the easy way out because they don't have to face the person. They obviously didn't have any respect for the marriage or their spouse. I just think a thing like that should be done in person. Cowards!

Ya know, the more I look at him, the more he reminds me of Vanilla Ice. They could be brothers.

I'd sooner pay a cover charge to go to K-Mart before I paid for a ticket to see K-Fed. And if I wait a bit perhaps I'll see him working there....
