Watch: John Mellencamp Storms Off Stage After Being Heckled at Toledo Concert

Here's a pro tip for anyone planning to see John Mellencamp tonight (3/19) at the Wharton Center in East Lansing:  Shut up and enjoy the show.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Famer stormed off stage Sunday night after trading barbs with a heckler at his show in Toledo.

John Mellencamp:  Musician + Storyteller

If you've seen John Mellencamp in concert, you know he likes to share stories between songs from his massive catalog spanning the last five decades. It's what the Indiana-born singer likes to do, and oftentimes his anecdotes are entertaining and funny.

If you just want to hear 'Jack and Diane' and 'Pink Houses' without interruption, may we suggest you stay home and build a playlist?

Heckled by a Concertgoer in Toledo

As the Scarecrow singer launched into a story Sunday night at the Stranahan Theater in Toledo, he was interrupted by a member of the audience who shouted "Play some music!"

The crowd of about 2,400 began to boo in disapproval of the fan, seemingly knowing that Mellencamp has a reputation for not responding well to audience members who challenge him during his shows.

The exchange continued as one or two other audience members joined in, and Mellencamp retaliated with a profanity-laced sass, before threatening to cut the show short.

"Tell you what I'm gonna do. Since you've been so wonderful," he said sarcastically. "I'm gonna cut about 10 songs out of the show."

He then launched into an acoustic version of 'Jack and Diane' but stopped abruptly after the second line.

"You know what? Show's over." Mellencamp quipped as he stormed off the stage.

Back on to Do a Few More Songs

While some concertgoers began to shuffle out of the auditorium, reports say Mellencamp did come back on to perform several more songs after the heckler had been removed from the crowd.
