I went to his concert for my birthday. It was years ago and I still reminisce about it

Many thanks from France for all your wonderfull music Mr Mellencamp!

We saw him twice--- both EXCELLENT !!!

Hell of a artist, dam good musician and singer. Icon for sure. Wish I was at this one!

He is so real! No bullshit fireworks, light shows dancing girls-just pure roots rock! And a voice that has been frayed and roughed up with life's hardships but still kicks ass. He is one cool cat! Great band as well! Thanks for posting mate👍👍

Will see Johnny Couger Mellencamp LIVE tomorrow night 🌙 in Kansas City, Missouri❣👍🏻😘

I am so happy folks are still enjoying John's live shows. For me his life shows in the mid eighties to early nineties was the best in Rock n Roll. And there were a lot of great musicians on the scene. In my humble opinion his band was hitting its peak led by Larry Crane and Kenny Arnoff. It really was special. Check it out during the 1990 Farm Aid. I recall my 90 year old mother sitting down and listening to the show. She looked over at me after the set and said " Now I can see why you like him so much" First time she had ever seen him live. God Bless you Mom , you were so cool. lol

John is the best male vocalist of the century.

STOP with your nonsense, I love John but he's not even in the top 100 greatest vocalist, and more importantly, HE'D tell you that. You want names, send me a reply and I'll educate you. Ridiculous comment by you.

Hear him latley..sounds like he smokes threee packs a butts a day. threatens his fans, calls them C@ck3uckers then walks off. He thinks he is there to preach his wke politics.

I was at this concert March 22 nd. Ball state University, Muncie In .wow ! 🤠👌🤗🥳🥳🥳🤗🥳🥳🥳🥳

It's okay. We all get old. Even you. Haha. Dude gave us some of the best music.

I am in love with that drum set

I saw him Wednesday night and although his voice has become a little weak and gravely, he still put on a great show. The crowd was very into it. I think Paper in Fire was my favorite of the night.

He's sucking allright...sounds terrible, if he lasts half a concert before he gets pissed and walks off.

I love his style of music and storytelling that like so many great American songwriters have done and have put the USA on the world map. His authenticity is great right down to his favourite old leather belt.

I been listening to John mellencamp since 1979, he can still write good songs and put on a good show, keep it up Mr.Mellencamp.

Saw him in Richmond, Ky. just a few days ago....really glad I went. As someone said below, he's one of those artist that you HAVE to go see live! Bucket list checked!

John ALWAYS gives his ALL

I love this man and his music!

I've seen him only once back in 1988 in Montréal. One of the most entertaining show I ever saw. Did not like his big mouth at first but fell in love with the man and his music around 1984. I have to catch on about what he did since the year 2000

My Main Man! Oh My! The concerts, the fun, oh goodness!!!! Dancing, 2nd row, 8th row, never a dull moment! My Brother Gary (Rest in Peace). he took me to my first concert in 1987....we went to his concerts every time he toured until Gary passed last November..............I just have to listen to him and think of fun-and OH YES, MELLENCAMP is fun, MUSIC AND WORDS are the BEST!

All of my heroes are old.

IMPRESIONANTE JOHN MELLENCAMP, MUY BUEN CONCIERTO , BUENA BANDA, BUEN SONIDO, BUEN ROCK.

Mellencamp is a great concert to see in person - and this video is one of the best concerts I've seen - and I've MC'd a lot of big name acts - he's an artist who stood up for himself in the beginning, and his music has given him added credibility & integrity by transcending into commentary while keeping it fun, alive , and still Rock n' Roll!

wish I could have seen this show, had tickets to 4 shows in Australia and they were cancelled, twice...so I'm left to watch his shows on you tube, thanks for uploading this.

Pink house is greatsong . I have liked this song since I was18years old. 🇯🇵

Nice job great arrangements still sounds fresh!

Badass

He was an icon! Guess you’d have to be at one of his concerts to appreciate his music and voice!!

I have seen John in 92,94,97 and 2000 and although i moved on to managing a Christian Extreme Metal band; I still enjoy checking in once and while with John! Brings back many memories of listening and watching him perform! I dont think he has lost anything but,maybe some higher notes he used to hit! I love his deeper vocals and the band still sounds amazing!! hang in there,John,still a fan since 1979!!

+Sherri Ross Let me throw this weird idea out there. I think his high register is good and it's the lower register that's gone! When he sings "better stand clear" that's a very high note. It's the low stuff like Lawless Times that comes out mangled. If you get a chance to see this current tour, do it. Phenomenal show.

He can feel the drums. I learned about low frequency, infrasound, noise exposure and how it gave me post concussive disorder. Too bad people don't understand how devastating sound radiation below 20hz really is. Got to say since I appreciate music artists so much :)

Men are usually upheld for aging well. John Mellencamp is the exception. He said in an interview that his lifelong habit of smoking enhances his singing voice. Not anymore.

@RetroSoulGirl

8 жыл бұрын

+questianna Lol I agree. His voice is not that... great. But I still love him and his music so I will continue to see him live while he's still around. He sounds WAY better in person I must say. And it really depends on the song too. I think he said that the smoking enhanced his voice as a joke... because everybody knows how horrible smoking is. Bob Seger is another example of a classic rocker with a bad habit of smoking. I've seen him live, too. He ain't soundin' too bright either. He's a little better sounding than Mellencamp though, and I think that's because Seger has like a 30 piece band to back him up. I mean I love both artists but with the recent deaths of Glenn Frey and David Bowie, I'm really getting desperate to keep all these rockers while we have 'em.

+Mr.Sickboy Mellencamp never had the same strength live since the heart attack, which I know was long ago. Between that and the normal decline in vocal range you're going to get as you age, plus the smoking, you get what you have now with Mellencamp. Sad, but you really have to take care of your vocal cords if you want to hold up into your 50s and 60s.

@RetroSoulGirl

8 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I that's true. I know he has cut down his smoking a LOT since that heart attack though. He said on good days he smokes 2 cigs, and on bad days he smokes about a pack. (Better than the past, I think he used to smoke like 2 packs, I don't know how he's not dead lol) But he does eat so much better now and he exercises a lot more. That's probably why he's still alive. He's just addicted... he said he's tried quitting a million times. He also seems quite educated in cigarettes and what they do to your body in some interviews I've seen. I don't know, I guess it's just... bad luck that he's addicted. I mean everybody in the world has tried to get him to stop. I know he wants to stop too. This is exactly why I will never smoke.

My belief is vocalists should retire before their voice declines...at least continue to create and produce music, but stop singing. Sheena Easton is another example.

I don't particularly care, it's their voice, they can do what they want with it. I don't think Mellencamp's voice is all that bad. It just is different. You honestly can barely even tell his voice is different when you're actually there at one of his concerts.

If I could create my own Mellencamp playlist for a private show... "Warmer Place to Sleep", "Play Guitar", "Grandview", "What if I Came Knockin'", "Get a Leg Up", "Whenever We Wanted", "The Big Jack", "Between a Laugh and a Tear", and "Minutes to Memories" along with what he played here - makes the list. How about you???
