Please thank Karen from me for allowing you to share these pics. You see, dumb arse that I am was too stupefied to do anything except stand there biting my pinky during the entire ordeal. It was quite surreal. I didn't take any pictures or video on my phone while this was happening. I managed to become coherent enough to grab a sharpie a girl passed me so he could autograph it, but aside from that I could do nothing else. When it was over I said a little prayer hoping somebody would post something on YouTube (which they did, kudos to them too) and today I found these!! I do admit the sign is obnoxiously large and borderline stalker-ish, but now these pics are going to allow me to be able to someday tell my grand kids some pretty amazing stories about my experiences at the Ford Amphitheater in Tampa. So thank you again, you have no idea how much this means to me. And while I did not get to go backstage after the show and meet John, I did get to meet some pretty amazing people during Summer Tour '08. Shout outs to Nate and Patrick from the Blackberry team (hence the photo on the poster from the meet and greet at Jones Beach) Peace-OneLove ~Sophia<3

I was at the Tampa show and I have to agree that the show was amazing...
I was in one of the back sections although not on the soaking wet lawn, poor people. The one complaint I have is that this shows audience was one of the rudest and un-John like as they come, at least where we were sitting. A lady behind my group started screaming after the second song to sit down and then proceeded to lecture, yes I said lecture, us on how we should think of other people and that we should commit a "random act of kindness" and sit down. After this scene a few minutes later a fifty something man tried starting an actual fight with my boyfriend because he was standing. I actually couldn't believe what was going on as it was happening. I mean, really, at a John Mayer show?! Am I completely wrong in thinking that at a concert people stand?! I didn't let this get in the way of the amazing stuff John was doing but here is to hoping that next time I'm surrounded by real Mayer fans.

Wow that sucks about the people sitting around you. I had a great time.........and I was standing for the whole show. How could you not??? If they wanted to
sit for the show they should have got a lawn ticket. It's not your fault you had better seats then the crazies behind you!!! John Mayer was great & the
show was awesome.
