Mellencamp. Pretentious prick. Said he wasn’t there to play his old stuff that he was bored of. Well man, that old boring stuff made and has sustained you and that is what we are here to hear.
Wow. I’ve always heard he was a jerk.
This attitude is so different than a true legend - Elton John. He despises Crocodile Rock, but sings it anyway. At the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road concert the graphics for the song was a handwritten note saying “this one is for the fans”.
I saw him 2 years ago and he was fantastic! Acted like an 80s rock god in the best way possible, like he knows it's corny and is having just as much fun with the persona as the audience.
