MAYER'S ROCK-Y ROAD

Remember back in the before times when concert on-sales were connected to album releases? Could it be a sign of the “new normal” that John Mayer has announced an arena tour on the day his latest Columbia release has dropped?

Mayer’s Live Nation-produced Sob Rock Tour will kick off 2/17 in Albany, N.Y., and run through 4/28 in Chicago. Stops include the new UBS Arena in Belmont Park, N.Y. (3/1), and Madison Square Garden (2/20), as well as two nights at The Forum (3/13 & 15).

Tickets go on sale 7/23 with pre-sale registration beginning Tuesday. Two pairs of front-row tickets will be auctioned off for each show to benefit the Back to You Fund.

Sob Rock, Mayer’s eighth studio album, is his first solo set since 2017’s The Search for Everything. He also released a video for “Shot in the Dark” today (scroll past dates to eyeball).
