- Prior to playing the Crump Theater in Columbus, Indiana in September 2008, a venue he first played as a fledgling artist in October 1976, John sat down for an in-depth interview about his career that comprises an insightful 60-minute documentary. Members of John's band and family add their insights to the piece, which is followed by segments of John's 2008 performance at the intimate Crump Theater.
I've been following you John , my friend , sung the song of my life , I had to dance like you and walk with that swagger , still today I tell my son each , buddy you are the most handsomest , talented boy in the whole wide world , I had to dress like you and they your songs I talked like you , I have been to four of your shows over the years and look forward to taking my eleven year old son to a show soon , I will be sixty this year and John you have made my life a lot fuller with your music , rock on my man
Totally underrated and unsung; this man is genius - full of heart, and soul and MUSIC.
I've seen John Mellencamp for the first time in concert in the 70s and then I think I saw him again in the 80s and I might have went to another concert in the 90s but every time they played their asses off and it sounded so good like the album. all three concerts were badass if you ever get a chance to see this guy he's getting old but he can Still Rock and they do a great show. I remember them doing the long encores as well which no one complained about.
His Home Town Ppl Really ,Wholeheartedly, Honestly Love There Hometown Rockstar! It's Just
Sooo Wholesome!!
I have loved this talented good looking man since I was 14 years old and I am 61 now I have named my dog's after him right down we have one alive named mellencamp, I raised a bird that fell out of a nest, with no feathers mellencamp, a cherry bomb tattooed on my right hip, and I see God has blessed thee well with his career and family that is a blessing, and thankful for him keep it up John God bless you
That’s awesome
Good story
I used to sing Jack & Diane for my AIDS patients when I worked for Hospice
Liked the man since I can think of. John's music always reminds me of the premise: "Keep it simple". As simple as many of his songs may be, there is always a certain power in that. His lyrics have content, but they're also made for singing along. Perfect as can be...
I remember the first time I heard John sing, it was on that show called Solid Gold and it was the song Ain't Even Done With The Night.
It's a funny thing I've seen him in concert three times back in the seventies eighties and nineties how I missed, I ain't even done with the night it's a very unique and awesome tune. but maybe he didn't do it the times that I saw him. I only remember hearing that song like 5 years ago and I was like Wow how the f did I miss this. So the great thing is the songs new to me even though I've been a fan of the guy forever since day one he's probably got a couple more songs that I've never heard that I would love.
So glad I saw John live in Sydney,WHENEVA WE WANTED TOUR, Great Entertainer, Loved him since Hurts so good, Would love for him to come back to Australia xx Love listening to all his stories , Beautiful Humble Man xx
I 1st saw him when he was Johnny Cougar. I saw him at Denny Cordell’s roller disco. I went to school with Jeff Silbar at Tates Creek High School in Lexington, Kentucky.
Best music that was ever made ....
One of my greatest influencers of my life and always will be ❣️💖🤗
At 32:36 is John's cousin. Named Bobby Clark. He wrote "grandview" song that John recorded.
Bob is a joy to play music with.
I've known Bob and his family for over 20 years. I seen Bob at our local grocery store last summer. I accidentally grabbed his bag of tomatoes when I went to leave. He came running out hollering at me ! Lol. I actually lived in Grandview in a trailer a few years back.
Awesome songwriter. Great band. The real shit
Has achieved artistic level of a Steinbeck, Norman Rockwell magnitude of Americana
How different are these band mates of this John, to those weaklings from CCR with John Fogerty.
These guys could see, recognise and respect their lead singers strengths and talents, supported him, and stayed with him for years.
Whereas John Fogerty's bandmates were irritated, thought his passion and perfectionism was uncool. They were pathetic and ended up making John's life hell.
These guys were a big encouragement for JF's comeback. Love them for it. Interesting that the drummer on this doco ended up doing a lot of work with John Fogarty. How refreshing that must have been for him.
Very true, love all of him
Very true, love John Melloncamp, & his band members!!!
you got to love this JCM said he wrote music with melody that anybody could sing to... including me and you
There is so much truth in Mellencamp
Thank ❤️ You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! , Keep Doing What Your Soung You Look Great , God Bless You !"
I do like JM and watched and enjoyed his career since I was a kid but for me I gotta see Kenny behind him. It’s a must.

I wished they mentioned Seymour's own great Larry Crane who play with John for many years.
