John Mayer in St. Louis, March 20: "I don't even know what napalm means," "Chubby, Married Cougar who needs hugs" and Fifteen Other Nuggets

Categories: Show Reviews

The RFT was denied reviewer tickets and a photo pass for John Mayer's show at the Scottrade Center last night. Why? No clue -- depending on the artist performing, sometimes these things just happen; you can't get too worked up over it. So instead, because Mayer's Twitter account is legendary, I perused the tweets of those in attendance and plucked some pearls of wisdom. As of this writing, by the way, he hadn't said a word about St. Louis on Twitter -- save for a note about slow Internet forcing him to "rotary dial his tweets."

Apparently, preparation for the show started early yesterday:

Opener Michael Franti & Spearhead -- whose leader hit Southtown Yoga earlier in the day -- drew mixed reactions from the crowd:
