Grammy Award winner John Mayer performed in Mumbai as he made his India debut on February 11, a few weeks after he was originally scheduled to perform in the country for the first time ever.

While his performance was simply mesmerising, Mayer, who interacted with the crowd during his performance, was his goofy self in so many different ways, that he kept fans engaged throughout his 90 minute set, but not without appreciating Mumbaikars.

Among the many aspects, he complimented Mumbai men for their haircuts, saying, "Men, your haircuts are fantastic. I've never seen more care, and talent, and skill put into the fade, and softness, and I want to run my hand through all of your hair, you're gorgeous. Suddenly, I feel like I don't have anything going on here."

It was only one of the many wisecracks he had during the performance, that started with some of his biggest hits that included songs like 'Slow Dancing In A Burning Room', continue with 'Love On The Weekend', and ended with 'Gravity'.

Hoping to return soon, Mayer also apologised to all fans who couldn't make it to the performance, produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live, on the rescheduled date.
