John Mayer in Concert




I have to say, it was pretty dang awesome. He sounded much better in person than he does on his album. He played mostly stuff from his new album (Continuum - you should go grab it if you haven't already), but he also did a couple of songs from his older albums too.

We sat pretty close to the front even though we got there only 40 minutes before the concert started, so that was cool. Tammy tried to hold our turf with the blanket, but after one song we wrapped it up and stood for the rest of his set. There was also this really overzealous JM fanboy next to us that reminded us of someone mentioned in the previous post. I thought he played for the other team because of his fervor for John Mayer. He knew all of the songs that he was gonna play either before they started, or after one note was played. it was pretty awesome. And funny.



John Mayer played second before Sheryl Crow, so that allowed us to leave right after he finished. Surprisingly there were still a grip of her fans there at the venue, but most of them were probably 35+.

And to top off the night, some dude almost got his head crushed by a train right in front of our eyes. I don't want to type up the whole story, so here is the condensed version.

Waiting at crosswalk. Train things come down so we have to wait. Train is damn long, and we wait for 10 minutes. There is no end in sight. Train suddenly stops, and the traincar in front of us is just an empty platform. We jump onto and over the car to get to the other side. Victory. The train starts moving all of a sudden. Fat guy stuck on top of train. He sits on edge to jump off. His friend holds his hand. He jumps, but because the train is moving so fast (< 1mph), he falls forward, and then slowly slowly falls backward. His head is less than a foot from the train track. His friend watches. Tammy and I think that it all happened in slow-motion, but realize that it happened in real-time. It's just that the guy is slow and so is the train. Bad times.

And then we got yogurt.

John Mayer



Tammy and I are going to see this man tonight. I am so excited.

Mr. Roymund told me and Andy that we couldn't go with him because he didn't have tickets for the show in Irvine. Therefore we were really surprised when he just happened to have extra tickets for the show tonight. He was nice enough to let us pay double what he paid for tickets, just to let us know that he magically pulled some "extra" tickets out of his black foot.

I just hope Sheryl Crow gets off the stage real quick.

Ok Go



So fun. I miss the old days. Thanks Ken.

Friday Fun



This made my day. If you look closely, you can see that there's a face on the front of the truck.
