Vh1 Classic Rock Nights: Mike Wanchic Interview Excerpt
10.26.2011 -
Vh1 Classic Rock Nights with Eddie Webb.
The fall leg of John Mellencamp’s No Better Than This Tour kicked off last
night (10/25) in Boston. Like any good group, John and his bandmates
rehearsed before hitting the road, and surprisingly, like many younger bands,
they did it in a garage. Mellencamp’s guitarist, Mike Wanchic, explained
it to us.
“We have a recording studio in a little town called Nashville, Indiana, which is
right outside Wilmington, had it since ’76. It was a converted house.
It had a garage built into a hill out of blocks. That is our rehearsal
space. We actually rehearse in a garage, just like I did in the eighth
grade. It’s a nicer garage, but it’s a garage.”
Mike and the rest of the band will be crossing the Eastern, Southern and
Midwestern regions of the country with John, playing shows through November.
