Hoosier Mellencamp to Tour:

John Mellencamp will bring his "Words & Music" to cities across the United States this spring on his first headlining tour in three years.

Sixteen stops have been announced for the first leg of the tour, which opens in Savannah, Ga., on March 23 and ends April 17 in Louisville, Ky. The tour is dubbed the "Words & Music Tour" after Mellencamp's recently released double CD greatest hits collection.

"Going out and playing is a great way for me to keep these songs alive; it's what I've done for my whole professional life," the 53-year-old rocker said in a statement Monday. "We're keeping ticket prices down so as not to exclude anybody who might want to attend one of these shows."

The top ticket price will be $45 for all tour dates in March and April.

--If anyone hasn't seen him in concert, he does a GREAT show. You should check it out!
