John Mellencamp will spend the better part of April on tour, making a stop at Merrill Auditorium on April 20th.

Mellencamp has played Portland at least three times that I know of. I remember seeing him at the Cumberland Country Civic Center back in the eighties when his album Rain On the Scarecrow came out.  He doesn't jump around onstage as much as he used to, but his music still kicks butt!

It's the Plain Spoken Tour, and it's in support an album by the same name released last year.  You'll hear stuff from that along with some of his greatest hits!
