John Mellencamp never disappoints! This is the 7th time I've seen him and he always puts on a high energy show. The concert was advertised to be about his new record, NO Better Than This. So what did you expect. If you like an artist, you need to appreciate what that artist does. Weather it's similar to old stuff or something completely different. One of the things I really enjoy about seeing Mellencamp is the cohesiveness of his shows. Of course he put a country twist to Jack and Diane. It fit with the style of music being preformed through this show. A lot of the song that he picked to perform for this concert fit the style and the feel. How sad that you write reviews and didn't get that. His story telling was not confusing it was humorous and lent to whatever song he was about to sing. His performance of the new material was great. He puts his heart into his performance. If I could go again tonight I would. Both me and my husband really enjoyed the show. Thanks John for another great performance!
