John Mellencamp brought hits, deep cuts and lots of cussing to Grand Prairie on Wednesday night.
There are still some performers who need no introduction, and John Mellencamp is definitely one of them. But just in case you need a refresher, he’s been a radio mainstay since 1979 with 22 songs to reach the charts. He’s a Grammy winner as well as a cofounder of Farm Aid with Willie Nelson, and he's been a member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame since 2008.
He started his set with"John Cockers" from 2008, one of his lesser known numbers. After a few songs, including"Small Town," Mellencamp addressed the crowd saying, “I came out from Indiana. I'm gonna play some songs for you tonight. Some songs you know, some songs you don’t know, some songs you can dance to and some songs you can sing to. Let’s all try to have a good time together.
One of the most touching moments of the night was when he performed an acoustic track from his most recent album. Titled"The Eyes of Portland," the song is a sad statement on the rate of nationwide homelessness. Mellencamp hasn’t lost a beat in his songwriting chops. This one hit the crowd intensely.
