From ‘Small Towns’ to the big city, John Mellencamp announced this week that he will be touring the U.S. next year. 76 stops have already been scheduled taking the Hoosier rocker through the first half of the new year. John turns 71 next week and has been busy this year with his new album, ‘Strictly A One Eyed Jack’. No word on who, if anyone, will be on the tour, but of course we’ll keep you up to date. Fans, especially in Indiana, are eager to hear him perform his classic hits that date back to when he was originally known as Johnny Cougar Mellencamp.
