John was soo right on doing his awesome show that night. Don't let fing terrorists win at all ever......,

facts. it sounds like im right at the kit.

DTF Ever hear that song *Who’s gonna fill their shoes* ? There really is no one who can fill those shoes you’re talking about 😢

Amen

The shelves are empty.

Blackberry Smoke comes to mind. IDK pretty tough shoes to fill.

It’s the end of an era.

Incredible.

​@@BaahBenkg of kk mnoooooo

Completely agree with you!!!

If you remember, John gave away the little pink house in Seymour.

So true! What an amazing album too. I saw them a few times even got backstage. He didnt have time of day for me but drummer Kenny Aronoff did- great guy (I do not hold that against John)

No it should not! It was that anthem and what it represents is what inspired this song. God bless 🇺🇸

this is truly honey to my ears!!!!

I would have done the same ! It's a gift of music

@@trumpking4874 Dude... Your name is Trump King and you think the liberals are brainwashed. LOL

I wish he wasn't such a liberal.

Norma Rae

Martiason Consulatins do you mean Martha say? Which is a great song as is Jackie Brown from from the dame album Big Daddy

True dat

one for the workin peoples!

wish to have been there he is a good leader hey why not vote for him just a thought

I totally agree. this version is by far the best one ever. I find my self listing to this over and over again. Exactly correct. At the 4 minute mark is the start of the best version ever of this song

- @@dkmi - to poszukaj John Mellencamp& Kid Rock Pink Houses - To jest wersja!!! ( Translator ;)))

@@charleswestfall622 I saw him a few times in the 1990s. Once at an outdoor venue, and once in a theater. He sounded great both times. It’s unfortunate that he smoked his vocal chords out of existence. I would have liked seeing more of him. One thing he was always good at was hiring talented musicians to back him. Kenny was on drums both times I saw him. Lisa was on violin. Would have killed to be in the audience of the MTV Unplugged special. That version of All Along The Watchtower should have been released.

Thanks for your comment and constant supports has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️

Great new song with Bruuuuce!!

Watermellon up his ass

Too bad he is a total socialist. Had no idea till he spouted Communist propaganda all night at a concert. Never really listened to him again. Not a patriot by any means.

@@pdrhound anti racist != communism. if you listened to the lyrics of his music you wouldn't be surprised

😎

Even the people from México.👍🏻👍🏻

I just want to talk to you I won't do you no harm I just want to know about your different lives On this here p***y farm

Just like posted, music 101

He still writes and tours so people will hear his music. He plays his old hits but he says we are not an oldies band. He plays new stuff too and its fantastic.

🦸‍♀️🦄🐸🦊🕊

Actually I have been to hundreds of country and rock concerts, and most artists acknowledge each band member at least once during their shows. It’s pretty standard.

He's 5'8"

He’s actually listed as a short 5’7” and having met him in person I doubt he’s that tall.

Thanks for your comment and constant supports has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️

Do you know, who played the fiddle?? Lisa Germano?

@@realist8977I believe that was Miriam Sturm. Lisa rejoined is tour in 2023.

Very very true statement. This is pure raw talent. It amazes me the "tricks" pulled off today. Even guitar tracks use pre-recorded live tracks during solos not, it socks. The few like John will sound great live forever like Tom Petty and Joe Co ker did keeping it real.

There are plenty of modern musicians that are still timeless... they just aren’t mainstream. You have to dig deep for the gold now

@@jourdanrolland522 unfortunately everybody is "polishing" their music with help, even ones that could be great. To me a real live show shows the real talent but these days EVERYONE uses recorded tracks live. Today in a live show when one puts the guitar behind their neck to play its usually a recorded track, even guitar heroes, the great ones do it.

@erik Knudsen oh that’s absolutely true. My point is though, that there are plenty that don’t. Tyler Childers, Billy Strings, Rebelution, Iration, Slightly Stoopid, Passafire, Colter Wall, and Sturgill Simpson just to name a few.

@@jourdanrolland522 I agree, even some you mentioned (I will check out the others) are doing it raw and great, we just need to find them. The industry is a wreck unfortunately. Even ones back in the day got shelved because that one band on the label made it and that's where the money went. Back in the 50s and early 60s the labels released everyone but slowed down in the 70s and stopped in the 80s. Thats why so many one hit wonders came out early on. Its a shame too.

What's the "silent majority"?

Who is the silent majority? John is an awesome guy and a proud liberal if that's what you mean.

@@michaelmurphy987 All the people who will be voting for TRUMP in 2020 ! Thats Who......LOL

Larry Klawiter ….you’re not the silent majority and never were, also you should really read the lyrics/meaning of the song if you think this is a “blind patriotism” song. Also Mellencamp’s legal team has sent cease and desist letters to certain republican politicians and organizations when they tried to use this song for their rallies and he disagrees with their stances.

I don't think liberals are necessarily the biggest problem in U.S. many of them are patriots, it's the extreme left that I have issues with. My wife and I are middle of the road, liberal on some things, conservative on others. I don't think these guys would put on these concerts if they didn't love the U.S.

Thanks for your sincere compliment and love, I’m not complete without you as my Fan 🌹🎻 I have you to be most thankful for 🎻🎻🌹

Denise Dillon WHY ALL CAPS

I thought Dylan started it.

Amen

his drummer always looked unorthandoxed but he could play the songs better than 99 percent of us ;)

Thanks for your sincere compliment and love, I’m not complete without you as my Fan 🌹🎻 I have you to be most thankful for 🎻🎻🌹

Pam Sheffield, where do you place Paper and Fire on your list ? 😊

He's real, not the learned blues that so many sing with skills they acquire by practice.

It has been a perfect playing for me having a lovely and awesome Fan like you, thanks for your love, I have you mostly to be thankful for 🎻🌹🎻🌹🎻🌹

Dtsff dead reeererrr reeder is rrrrrty y it ya guy huh uh huh u ugh

Your cowbell comment reminds me of the Saturday Night Live skit about Blue Oyster Cult's "Don't Fear the Reaper" with chris walken ...crazy .....more cowbell!

Linda Poole-- Hello from the Buckeye state.

Hi from OHIO :)

Wow, Thats a preposterous and ignorant statement.. You just closed your mind in the 80s. How sad. Pop music of all decades is mediocre, but if you dig deeper you will find gems, masterpieces and timeless visionary music to this very day. Free your mind and your ass will follow. open your mind and open your ears. Your efforts will be rewarded.
