John Mellencamp: No Better Than This

Join John Mellencamp and his band at the State Theater on November 22 and 23.  The No Better Than This tour, brings Mellencamp's music to theater-sized venues highlighting all phases of his artistry.

The State Theater notes-The tour's "opening act," is a documentary film by Kurt Markus entitled It's About You. Shot on Super8 film over the course of last year's Bob Dylan-John Mellencamp-Willie Nelson tour of minor league baseball stadiums, it chronicles the creation of No Better Than Thiswhile serving as a cinematic 'think piece' on the state of the country at the end of the first decade of the 21st Century. Markus, whose still work has put him in the front ranks of contemporary American photographers, has been cited for his extraordinary vision of his work documenting the American West and is the recipient of Life Magazine's Alfred Eisenstaedt Photography Award.
