Hey gang, sorry to inform you that the John Mellencamp "Small Town" concert tour is a gag.It is, of course, April Fool's Day.
We appreciate the calls for "tickets" to the faux show in Morris June 20th, and we really appreciate the good natured reaction from everyone that called.
Lots of laughs, and "good one" comments from the listeners today, and that was exactly what we were hoping for.
As was the case last year with our Brett Favre gag -- which you can read about in the previous post -- we snagged some audio from a previous interview (this time, from Farm Aid 2008) to snare a couple of quotes about small towns, etc.
The "Small Town Tour" is actually a pretty good idea -- does Mellencamp read this thing?
