John Mellancamp
Knock out performance by Mellancamp. His gritty take on our tumultuous times was bracing. Band was s-o-l-i-d. Electric violinist soared. The great Emmylou Harris was not in the best of form vocally but still a treat to heat.
Solid surprising performance
Although the old movie introductions and dummies on stage raised question marks ( at least to me and my wife)-the performance did not-solid sharp upbeat a good two hours-never saw him live until now and it was well worth the wait. if you did not enjoy the performance just not a fan of good music. Or maybe you were the ones yelling political remarks in back of theatre that he asked to quiet down.
Still Rocking with Mellencamp
Wow! Stunning and brilliant performance. I saw him in 87 and 88, tied for first greatest concerts in history, mind-boggling energy. 35 years later the impossible energy is gone, but the performance was as good. I sat in the 7th row with my granddaughter and she was surprised she could sing along with 5 songs, and she was touched by many others! Brilliant lyricist, powerful storyteller, amazing evening, thank you John for rocking with me, a 78 year old man!
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!
My Bucket list concert. Loved it
John Mellencamp was great. Every minute of this concert was my dream come true. To all you people who put him down you are the ones who suck! I guess you people aren't true fans. John I will come see you every chance I get for everyone else f off you don't know a legend
AWESOME PERFORMANCE
This was my first time seeing John perform. I was thrilled. I paid a lot for my ticket and I was not at all disappointed. He performed some classics and new songs. He's clearly not lost any of his talent. His band is exceptional. I found John to be smart, funny and quite captivating. He relates to his audience by including them as he's singing and makes eye contact constantly. He is humble and it's clear he appreciates his fans and shows his appreciation by the way he interacts to the extent he can. I would gladly pay the same amount to see him again! What a truly gifted, talented man. I continue to listen to his music daily and appreciate what a true storyteller he is. I'm sorry for those who didn't or weren't able to appreciate the talent he brought to the venue they visited. THANKS JM AND BAND!
