Sorry, but what is the point of your post? Please let John live his life the way he wants to, without imposing your own beliefs/religious views on him.

I think 90 min. per headliner is a bit too long!LOL! It would take all evening with no room for other artists.

More grey, less beard, I think most of us can agree with that :-)

Rene, why would he not continue to live in the house he has lived in for so long? I\'m sure his kids will still be there half the time that he is in B-town. Plus there\'s Meg Ryan and her young daughter who seem to spend a lot of time there.

Could People mag have picked a WORSE picture of John and Elaine. They both look awful in it!

That was my point. There's more countries out there who would love to see John perform!
But yeah, it's good that he's clearly having fun and continues to do tours.

Show evidence, Rene. If you don't have any - other than that old picture and fake soho sightings - then don't make claims. This has nothing to do with putting people on pedestals or whatever.

Oh well, what matters is that these two people are obviously happy. So who cares anyway. Won't be commenting on this thread no more.

Very interesting!

But not so very good news for those of us outside the US 

Show us a recent photo of her smoking then (like from the last ten years) Rene. There aren't any that I could find. Nobody says they are saints. They are far from saints, they are humans just like the rest of us with their good sides and bad sides. No reason to dislike them for that.

Will the fall tour be US alone or other continents as well?

Nice to see John has his family with him on tour and they got to celebrate a happy occasion!

No, she is not a 'known' smoker, Rene. Quite the contrary. She rarely ever smokes. Even in these photos her cig is never lit. Contrary to those of John.

Here are a few links to some Danish articles with (positive) reviews and photos:

Don't bother with a translation. BZ is a tabloid. The article is filled with mistakes and a fake quote. Typical of their celebrity stories  The only thing they got right is that they were out and about in Berlin for a few hours.

[Mellencamp publicist Bob Merlis wrote in an emailed response: “deny.”]

John's people deny as well

Herald-Times

An Internet site named allvoices.com and various celebrity-focused sites are reporting that Bloomington-based rock star John Mellencamp and actress Meg Ryan plan to marry in July.
 
When asked to confirm or deny the report, Mellencamp publicist Bob Merlis wrote in an emailed response: “deny.”
He declined to comment further.

Not even two days later that same Herald Times now report they were wrong (DUH!). Of course, they restricted access their follow-up article for members-only. Silly really.

Thanks for these! Much appreciated.
