This post is dedicated to my brother, Keith, who texted me on Sunday to say, "I'm officially a John Mayer fan after looking at your blog." I haven't talked to Keith to find out exactly what it was that converted him to Mayer fandom, but I'm guessing it must have had something to do with the video I posted on my birthday blog of John doing an accoustic version of a song called "In Your Atmosphere." That song is one of two favorites from the accoustic part of that particular show, which took place in L.A. last December. I had the pleasure of attending this show with my friend Amanda, and I have to say this was my favorite Mayer show of all time...and I have 7 others to compare it to! :) I loved it so much because it was ALL Mayer...it was like he was the opening act, the main act, and the closing act...and what's not to like about that?! Anyway, below is the video of my other favorite song from the accoustic part of the show...an excellent cover of "Free Fallin'" by Tom Petty:
And just because it was truly a classic and favorite Mayer moment, I'm also including video from the show I went to with Stephanie this past July. Axl Rose has got NOTHING on John! Start watching at about :45 to miss the birthday song and go right into GNR:

I was listening to just the audio version of this (you know how he did that whole thing from the tour on his website) and I randomly found it. No one told me a thing about it. I didn't know there was a video! Fun! I can always count on you Amy to keep me up to date on Johnny, since I'm not the fan I use to me [hanging my head in shame, single tear rolling down my face] hahaha!
Okay, sorry for the second comment, but I didn't watch the whole video before I commented the first time. Bad form, I know. Sorry.
But seriously! I am dying over here. Laughing my head off! I have N-E-V-E-R in all the years I've been a fan or been to his shows seen him be like that. That was AWESOME. Now my tears are ones of joy! haha.
