I hope that didn\'t cost you more than 20 bucks...

Personally, I didn\'t like the Ben Folds set too much.. The first half sucked IMO, but the second set was alright. Seemed like they grew some balls and rocked it out more in the second half. I thought it was really cheesy when the keyboardist got on top of his piano and got the crowd to sing the two notes of \'\'\'AAHH aahhh" over and over and over again even though the teeni-boppin girls seemed to be very into it. I did however enjoy it when he threw his chair at the piano at the end of the set. As far as John Mayer goes, show was ok... Highlights for me were "Gravity" and the encore acoustical versions of "Slow Dancing" and "Your Body is a Wonderland". nothing out of this world just a nice relaxing time with the girl you like on a nice summer night. I must also add that this was my firts sober show in a very, very long time.

ben is worth it. I really didn\'t care one way or another if we stayed, it was my friends birthday gift and she didn\'t want to see mayer so we left.

We were in the lawn for the first two opening acts just chillin in the sun. We had 4th row center seats (her b-day present) and sat there for John Mayers\' set. It would have been nice to have seen you there though. Just to say hi and take a picture or two. Hope you two had as much fun as we did.
