For the first time in my life I paid AUD$90+ for a ticket to see a musician play live. It was for April 12th which was a long awaited date considering I bought the ticket in November the year before.
And it was all for John Mayer. We had great seats, we could see everything except facial expressions. I only wished that my camera had better zoom lens. The crowd was amazing and so was John.
He commented on the clever signage where fans had constructed stop signs with a picture of a train in reference to ‘Stop this Train’ from Continuum. A fan from the back yelled ‘Bring it baby!’ to which he improvised mid-song ‘I’m staying right here.’
It was what I’d expected after watching ‘Any Given Thursday’. A mix of pop and blues. A whole lot of jamming and strange dance moves. A respectful crowd there to bop their heads and sing with him.
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t trying to spot Jessica Simpson in the crowd, but with no luck.
