    I'm hoping to check out some of the Northeast shows. I'm hoping they do some stuff together.

    I remember back in the day John tried to get Ben to guest on Room For Squares but their schedules didn't work out so it unfortunately didn't happen.

    I'd see Mayer if it wasn't too much money.

    Yeah, definitely would have been really cool although I'm not sure which song they had talked about. I definitely see some potential for collaborations on the tour though, I'd be shocked if they didn't play 1 or 2 together.

    Maybe I can find out from John if they've got anything planned.....

    John Mayer is such a great guitarist but I cannot stand his vocals and his music bores me to death.
