John Mellencamp

“Troubled Man” from last night’s “Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.” Lu’s turn next week!

Ha! The best thing about that record was his grandmother singing? Great line! I’ve heard her sing, I couldn’t see her, but I heard her at a concert in Bloomington, was always huge, the Little Indy 500. I had a seat on the field but it was practically the last row. I was standing on my seat and still couldn’t see her, either 1985 or 1986. Scarecrow tour.

This is a great write-up! John has done a 100 shows with Bob? 😆 He ALWAYS has issues with time frames. I guess saying doing a 100 shows with Dylan sounds pretty good. He keeps insisting in interviews this past week (plus the press conference at FA) they have been doing that gig for 27 years now, yet he was corrected at FA Press conference it’s been 29 years, and yet, last night, on Fallon, when asked, he told him 27 years…

There are a lot of JM haters out there, but he killed that cover of “All Along The Watch Tower” – he had an amazing back up band.

Oh, and I have a picture of me at the airstream – we saw it parked in the parking lot a few years ago at Farm Aid. I’ll have to post it when I have time. 😛

Thanks, lefty, for the post!
