Great show. Wish Bobby would mellow his tone out a little though. There’s a little nails on a chalkboard going on in EOTW.

I’ve been to many many shows - and this one was special. There was electricity and magic in the air in the Forum on the opening night of this tour.

Nothing beats the sound system in forum. Eyes jam with the stars in the ceiling was unbelievable

Really fun start to the last tour ever. First set first night was one of the best parts of the weekend. Stephen got deep and 11 was great. Deal is just better than it has been in ages. That Eyes, well it was rough. Sugaree was excellent but that New Speedway was unexpected and was killer.

Great show with some caveats.Love Shakedown Street but thought the jam could have been better, didn't get me boogyin like it usually does, kind of flat instead of bouncy. The jams in Half-Step were totally awesome. I noticed my friend having a peak experience during They Love Each Other, prompting me to eat another mushroom. St. Stephen took me to a new dimension and I finally got to hear The Eleven! DEAL stole the show though, absolutely mind-blowing fun! I was literally laughing and don't think I've ever moved like I did during that jam!! Sugaree was great but not as good as last time they played it at Hollywood Bowl when Mayer unleashed blasts of high frequency energy at us. New Speedway Boogy was great too. I noticed that Bobby's guitar sounded too grating during some of the songs, and I even complained about it during Eyes. He soloed during what is usually the best part of the song and would have sounded pretty good if it wasn't so tinny and screechy. Not sure if they had his guitar amped up too high intentionally or not, but it's not a good sound for lead. Estimated Prophet had a really juicy jam and one of best songs of the night after Deal and St. Stephen. Wharf Rat and Sugar Mags were standard fare, but Black Muddy River was stunningly beautiful. Night two was f***ing amazing.

FORUM shows were on point!!!! And as another reviewer said, first set was fire the whole thing from start to finish and the second set all the way thru to drums/space then the wheels fell off (no pun intended), wheel was okay but after that it was like Mayer just stopped driving the jams, like he was just going through the motions, Bobby too. You could really tell with the sunshine daydream which is usually a scorcher, just fell flat. But all in all it was a great show and a great weekend and it made me want to hit the S. F. shows to end the tour and am gonna get tix, I can’t miss it if this is any indication of what the tour is gonna be like. It was really like being at a show back in the 80’s, the feeling, the music, the whole vibe was there for the first time, at least for me.
