John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat
Fuck him and his overrated music.
Does he think he is giving a symphony performance when he's on stage and expects the audience to politely golf clap after each song?

Any mention of his outburst on XKR or RQN, or are these stations pretending nothing happened?
I strongly suspect ZZ Top will treat their concert goers much, much better in a few days when they play Toledo!

Re: John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat
I can't think of a single song of his I like, or even tolerate.
There are other artists from that era who I've heard had similar outbursts. Chrissie Hynde comes to mind.

I don't know if XKR or RQN have mentioned it because, well, that would require listening to XKR or RQN lol
Nonetheless, some artists' egos know no bounds.
Don't want the audience yelling for Jack and Diane (or Born in the USA, or Roxanne, to name two other artists I've heard accused of stuff like this)? THEN DON'T FUCKING GO ON TOUR.

Re: John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat
I'm more disappointed that he used a slur than that he behaved like a two-year-old. Self-indulgent behavior and rudeness is just par for the course with rock stars.
Re: John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat
That people would spend more than about $50 on one of these shows is why these guys get a disproportionate sense of self-worth.

If I were in that audience, I'd want my fucking money back

Re: John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat
I am not fan of the guy and he owed it to customers to finish the show.
But the number one person to blame is the heckler in my opinion.
I haven't been to a concert in decades but I think telling a story on stage is not uncommon. Further more the play list is set before the show starts so telling a story isn't exactly in lieu of a song.
So the heckler is essentially saying get the songs over as fast as you can because I want to leave.

Elton John did a similar thing in Detroit about 1989.
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.

Something I found noteworthy was Carlene Carter as his opening act. Nothing against her, but she hasn't been relevant in years...makes me wonder if 'ol John has burned a lot of bridges among his peers

I've never even heard of her, so you're at least one step ahead of me!

She's the daughter of June Carter Cash (Mrs. Johnny Cash) and her first husband, Carl Smith. She had a number of country hits back in the 80's. If I were her, I'd steer clear of Mellencamp going forward.

This is solely on the performer to not engage the heckler.
He had the audience, he had control.
Once he lowered to the heckler level, that was it.
