Confused on why Ed Sheeran fans did not seem to know the song Neon. John's guitar playing alone should have been enough to win over a crowd that didn't know some of his songs. He's a true talent. I bet Ed Sheeran was watching and listening to John during that set. :)

[@torduc22]

I’m guessing many of Ed’s fans are younger so it’s understandable they don’t know Neon or any of his other older songs

After David Gilmour John Mayer is my favorite guitarist. What a brilliant musician. Would love to watch him live.

John come to Argentina, we will applaud you like you deserve!

[@ADDLOOPS1]

Thanks for this @chris-taylor. This captures the RAW format of John at it's core. This is the stuff aspiring musicians need to see instead of the professionally recorded and edited perfection. John is HIGHLY expressive and this highlights it so well.

Nice to see Ed Sheeran fans hearing some actual music.

Imaging he started playing dead songs and actually started ripping it! An hour later... sorry ed, just practicing!

[@TLopesz]

You guys were the luckiest!!

Confession, I jumped on Stubhub Saturday morning and purchased over priced club seats when I learned John was opening for Ed. I was sadly misinformed about Saturday night's show, but it did NOT disappoint. Instead, Ed cast a spell on me and my husband with his loop pedal sorcery. ❤

@Christopher Taylor I really appreciate you sharing this ❤️

It was an awesome show. John came back out later and performed with Ed

[@Travisdin]

Ed Sheeran's music is mad popular and garnered world's attention to the billions, but John Mayer's songs make me be lost in a billion galaxies with such awe. Ed Sheeran's concert would be fun and entertaining as hell, but John Mayer concert would be extraordinary, breath-taking, reduced to tears of joy; appreciation and gratitude. John Mayer all the way!

I have a feeling this John Mayer will be big in the future. People should keep an eye on him!

I've seen JM several times, and his recent solo concert! He is out of this world insanely musically gifted. To come to an ED concert, and John Mayer just walks in to open up, I would be full of emotions. I love love love JM so much! ❤❤❤
