As he’s been doing throughout the tour, John Mayer took the stage solo with an acoustic guitar to kick off his second set of the night. Mayer ran through “Emoji of a Wave” and “Daughters” before covering Tom Petty‘s “Free Fallin'”. Moving back into his electric arrangement, the second set continued with a take on Jackson C. Frank‘s “Blues Run the Game”, “Queen of California”, “Rosie”, “Half of My Heart”, “Slow Dancing In a Burning Room”, “Why Georgia”, “Waiting On the World to Change”, and “Gravity”.
