1  MELLENCAMP DISCUSSION / I Knew Him When He Was Johnny Cougar / Re: First time i REALLY heard John on: September 19, 2010, 02:55:38 pm
The first time I heard John I was 11 years old My parents had bought his Album at the time . It was 1978 I Believe I need a lover was on that album . But I really became a fan in 1983 I was 16 years old and was going thru the rebel stage and his music really hit home with me The Authority song and Jack and Diane Etc.............. His music was my escape from the troubles I was having with my parents . I have been a die-hard Mellencamp fan ever since. I have seen him in concert 6 times and have enjoyed every concert I have ever attended by him . Him and his band always puts on a great show . No matter who is in his band they still put on a great show . I must admit I really miss Kenny Aranoff at the drummer spot though he is such a talented drummer he really added a lot to the sound of the band . Anyway being a fellow hoosier i have always felt like I can relate to what John writes and sings about . I definitely share his political views Country Gentleman hits the nail on the head when it comes to the Bush Era ..........   LOl thank God that is over  Anyway Thanks John for everything you have given us in your lifetime please dont ever stop performing .
