What really comes through, however, is the duo's ability to entertain an audience. As veteran performers will tell you, entertaining is not a talent that develops overnight."During the decade of the '80s, I was home, like, 22 months," Mellencamp says. "I can't remember the exact number, but the rest of the time I was on the road or making a record. On one tour, I did 149 shows. I had to actually have the name of the town taped in front of me."Chesney can identify with the confusion of the road, noting, "You keep going so long ... I was onstage and I found myself -- just for a second -- kind of going through the motions. That's not what people pay $65 to see. They didn't pay that to see you going through the motions. I caught myself doing it -- and I hope I never do it again."
