Liberals cannot tolerate dissent.
A little ditty, about Jack and Jonny Cougar…
Mediocre musician, commie jerk
Overrated, way.
He sounds like an arrogant jerk.
His fans didn’t pay to get lectured, they paid for a show. The guy sounds like a total “doosh.” He needs to shut up and sing and not be such a snowflake. If you can’t handle the heat, get off the stage.
When I saw Styx at the Cow Palace back in January of 1980, at one point the lead singer said that the crowd was louder than the band, according to the sound engineer. He wasn’t unhappy about it. (just for the record, that was an amazing show.)
Just an overgrown pretensious baby as are most liberals.
The Gatlin Brothers opened for Kenny Rogers back in the early 80s. Larry stopped a song in the middle to tell everyone to shaddap. I wish I had a tomato.
John Cougar has always been a douche.
Being lectured to IN the song ain’t such a hot deal, either.
But at least it has a beat and you can dance to it.
John Mellencamp Tells Fans ‘Shut the - Up’ or He’ll End Show
“Your terms are acceptable”
Love his music and hate his politics. But he probably hates mine, too.
Springsteen and Mellencamp seem to have forgotten how they started, with their songs about small town values and born-in-the-USA patriotism.
He fought Mediocrity, Mediocrity always wins.
What was this single anti-American comment?
Seems the wrong headline. They say one person complained. Then they don’t tell us exactly why the complaint.
I know it could be bad coming from Cougar, but this isn’t convincing.
Mellencamp is 71 years old.
He’s officially an angry old man
“You kids get off my lawn.”
It was a great concert, Jimmie Vaughan killed it too.
My very best friend Wendy lives next door to John Mellencamp’s childhood friend and long time bandmate, Larry Crane. She was best friends with Larry’s wife before they got married and every year Larry holds a concert in his backyard for her and his wife whose birthdays are very close together. Luckily for me, Wendy has invited me each time and and I have been fortunate enough to have had several conversations with Larry and other musicians in Mellencamp’s orbit.
The common thread that arises in every discussion with those that know Mellencamp well is... what an asshole he is. The word “narcissist” has been used by several of these people when discussing their interaction with Mellencamp and that should be a surprise to no one. Anyone who’s been paying attention knows there’s a very heavy connection between narcissism and left-wing activism.
Bottom line is, he is not a nice man and I wouldn’t pay a dime to see him play live.
A sucko singer who sings sucko songs.
The Beatles used to try this.
