I had a phenomenal day last Saturday, and what really made it perfect was ending the night at the John Mayer Concert. I have been to a couple of concerts of John's before, so I expected a lot out of him...and it came through. His knowledge and love for music really comes out when he plays live. His band was a little larger than most groups have, but it was needed to capture all of the styles of music he plays. He had the standard drums, bass, keyboard and guitar, but added 2 other guitarists (1 being himself), a trumpet player, and an alto saxophonist. His lighting and stage was a mixture of an 80's style with the addition of computer lighting. I really thought it looked nice, but my sister did not like it at all.
One of my favorite songs on his new CD was sung at the concert. The song is called "I'm Gonna Find Another You. It is a slower ballad, but really sounded great with all of the instrumentals on stage. It is my favorite song on his Continuum CD, and I would have to say the song was my favorite at the concert also!
One other exciting note was that Jessica Simpson was at the concert! She was sitting in the sound/light booth, and was trying to not be seen by the crowd...but it is hard to hide when you have 15 security guards escort you out of the arena before the concert is over!
