"If you want to buy a live CD from John Mayer, purchase "Any Given Thursday", a double CD also, which is without question much better. If you are a hard core Mayer fan and your looking for a few gems, there are 2 or 3 great versions of songs you already know on this. This is only for the hard core fan, but I am glad I bought it."
Enjoy it!

"As a hard core John Mayer fan, I enjoy this double CD set. I especially love "Blues Intro" and John's rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues/Make Me Wanna Holler." The rest is same ole, same ole, but the set is worth having if you love John playing the blues as much as I do. In concert, he does his old standards in all various ways, so no single one is ever the same. It's just fun to hear John in concert without actually being there."
Never to dissapoint
