Why see John Mellencamp?
The Legendary Roots Rocker
Singer-songwriter pioneer John Mellencamp continues to tour playing music from his back catalog as well as more recent albums, including 2022's Strictly A One-Eyed Jack. In addition to his musical career, Mellencamp is also an accomplished painter, actor, and film director. Don't miss the 'Voice of the Heartland' when he takes to the stage in your town this year!
Mellencamp's career stretches back some over thirty years, and he has molded his brand of dusky heartland rock to every new genre and style that comes along. From Springsteen-Esque anthems to stripped down, T-Bone Burnett produced country songs, his sharp and simple lyrical style that is unerringly able to pinpoint the mood of the nation has continued to shine through. Among his best-known tracks are 'Jack and Diane', which spent four weeks at Number 1, and 'Hurts So Good'. Along the way, he's been awarded a Grammy and been inducted into The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Paul Holland
Outstanding Authentic Passionate Artist
It was not a concert, it was a performance where we got to meet the man and see how creative, interesting, and authentic he can be. He is passionate about the causes in which he believes and that came through in his performance. Only a few Clevelanders were boorish and difficult but enough of them were loud enough that they almost derailed the show. THANK YOU JOHN, for toughing it out. It was one of the best shows I have seen! I remain a lifelong fan!
It was an adults only show but not over the top, a couple of f-bombs and a discussion of love-making but nothing crazy! Absolutely solid!
Rain on the Scarecrow is still one of my fav anthems; so great to see it live! Outstanding! ... Read more

John Mellencamp Cleveland
Honestly I think everyone could've done without the bits of movies that played on for 30 minutes at the beginning and I hated the people who were drunk by the time the band hit the stage. It was a little uncomfortable when John called them out and reminded everyone it was an intimate venue. Finally I was very impressed by the energy and presence of the band and I thought he sounded true to himself! Took me back in time and left me smiling. ... Read more

Mellancamp Still Rocks!
Saw him in concert last week. The beginning half hour was bad, but the concert itself was OUTSTANDING! what did these other people expect from the concert. If they know him and his music he has a message he wants to portray in his songs. I'd see him again, if given the opportunity. Money well spent. As for the disgruntled, stay HOMW! ... Read more
