restless sleep, ears still ringing
i had probably the worst night's sleep i've ever had.. imagine being tired, but not really because it's only 1AM and daylight savings has kicked in so it's really 2AM and you NEED to get to sleep cause you have to work.. your body has other ideas and it wants to stay up and party, so it wakes you up (after you tried so hard to fall asleep) every 20 mins or so... grrrrr i'm a little ticked off with myself this morning
anyway, the show last night was AMAZING to say the very very least. if anything, John Mayer is a genius (in some ways) with his guitar work. you can tell he was born to do this, and he does it WELL. alot of times, the whole crowd (i have no idea how many people there were) were dead silent for his acoustic of 'comfortable'. you could hear every note and every breath he made, my eye balls and ears were peeled, i tell ya. i was trying to remember the set list, but after three songs i just let it go.. i know that he did play a couple of new songs 'Covered In Rain' and 'Something's Missing'. the set list was similar to the ones he's played on his tour here anyway - almost 2 hours of JM-goodness.
i didn't realise, but i took ALOT of photos last night. (more than usual which is strange for me). i don't know how i took so much because i stopped so many times just to listen, and dance, and sing along.. but i'm glad i got a couple of good ones to post (you know me .. )
here we go :
i was thinking the whole time i could get better pics down near the stage (we were up on the 2nd rising).. but i didn't want to get trampled on and screamed at by a over-zealous female (there were alot).. but anyway, to remind myself and others, he will be at

They are awesome pics Tracey! I was down near the stage trying to get pics with my digicam but like you said, it was so crowded with screaming people & the lighting was pretty hard to get good quality shots.
Comfortable was beatiful, I was mesmerised.
