An Open Letter to John Mayer (Part 2)

Dear John Mayer,

I forgive you for not contacting me about the concert tickets.  I’m sure you must be very busy with your new lady friend and the tour, so you may not have as much time to google yourself anymore.

I won’t lie and say that I wasn’t a little disappointed, but life goes on.

Luckily, the Universe picked up your slack and we ended up eventually finding someone who was trying to unload tickets. The Universe must also know that I’m really cheap because the seller gave them to us for under face value! This was really peculiar because everyone else we found selling them were trying to get double the face value.  I swear it was fate that sent this very nice woman to us.  And just like that, my faith in the power of The Secret was restored.

I must tell you that you are an AWESOME performer!!!  I’ve been to many concerts and I really like how you mix things up.  One minute you are singing your own songs and the next minute you throw a little Aerosmith, Duffy, Tom Petty and Van Halen into the mix. It was like five concerts all rolled into one. Loved it!

Although I wish you would have done “Your Body Is A Wonderland” (yes, I know it’s kind of played out and doesn’t really go along with your new arm-sleeve tattoo and serious musician image) I will say that you made it up to me when you did Van Halen’s Panama. 

Ok, so I don’t really even like that song very much, but I LOVED the idea of you not wearing a shirt while performing it.  Best part of the concert for sure!!! (Sad to say that my camera’s battery chose to die at this exact moment and I only got a few seconds -stupid, stupid camera!!! )

I really do think you should have done the entire show without a shirt, but I’ll take whatever I can get.

Thanks for a fun night!

Love,

Jen

(And my husband who says that you are his idol for dating half his laminated list.)

    No, not glowing just wet from the rain. It was POURING!!! Luckily we did end up getting pavillion seats, but the rain came through the tent. I could have cared less though once Mr. Mayer took the stage. ;)

    Lucky you for someone to swoop down and pretty much hand you over the tickets. I’m sure John read your letter, but he’s a busy guy and just had his people do it. You know how that goes.

    See, now I can wag my finger at you and tell you that the Universe loves you! Oh yea of little faith. But then see, I’ve been told lately that I am NOT a nice person…so I would totally do something like wag my finger in your face.

    Now I’m tellin ya, getting out of a speeding ticket is just around the corner. Yes grasshopper, you have the skillz…mad ones at that!

    That’s AWESOME!! That’s exactly the reason why I’d want to go to his concert, cause he throws in the random non-Mayer song or two in the mix…I’m so glad that you had fun!

    Oh! And thank you nice woman!! It’s so hard to find people like that nowadays…

    “Lady friend” – LOL!

    Did you scan the front row to see if Jen was there?

    Also, was Jessica Simpson on your husband’s laminated list?

    Just wondering.

    Awesome!! Glad you were able to go, sounds like you had a great time!!

    San Diego Momma–Jessica is on my husband’s laminated list. As is Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Love Hewitt (well, I don’t know for sure if she and John did date, but there were rumors).

    We actually had seats that were off to the side and we had a view to the backstage area, so I kept looking to see if Jen was there, but didn’t see her. No sign of her upfront either. I think the two of them are an odd match.

    Obviously it was your destiny to attend.

    You crack me up.

    I hope he takes your advice and goes fully shirtless in future.

    So glad you scored tickets! And a picture of yourself on the blog? What a big step! I know everyone is happy to see your face finally.

    It’s so cool that you got to go! I was reading the first post (came over from POW) and was like, “Oh I hope she finds some tickets!) I am a little bit of a fan myself. I can’t believe he performed without his shirt though.

    Love the last sentence of this post. Pretty funny that you guys have laminated your “lists!”
