Mellencamp to play the Schermerhorn?
I heard recently that John Mellencamp will likely be booked in the near future for a show at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center. This would be a great venue to hear a great artist, especially if Mellencamp plays all or part of the show acoustic, so I hope this works out. I’ve been in the SSC about five times now for receptions and for meetings, but never for music. It is a spectacular building visually, and I can only imagine how good music must sound inside the concert hall. Nashville is fortunate to have such an amazing venue.

I honestly thought when i first read “Mellencamp to play the Schermerhorn” you meant that he was going to play him in a made for TV movie or something. I could see some people seeing him as a young Kenneth…though i think it would be a bit of a stretch.
I wondered how long it would take for the SSC to start booking more ‘pop’ acts beyond classical and jazz.

That would be something, Paul. SSC is such a beautiful venue, and I’m glad they’re looking for other ways to expose locals to it beyond the symphony. Don’t get me wrong: I enjoy classical music, but variety is always welcome.
