After Bob Weir’s sit-in on Thursday night in Sacramento on “Friend of the Devil” and “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door,” John Mayer again tapped into the Dead repertoire, playing an electric cover of “They Love Each Other” at Mountain View’s Shoreline Amphitheater, a venue at which The Grateful Dead have a storied legacy.
In early June, Mayer performed on the same stage as a member of Dead & Company (“They Love Each Other” also made an appearance at the Sunday show), and, on Saturday night, brought his solo act and band back to the California venue.
“They Love Each Other” appeared during the second full band electric portion of the show prior to the encore and was one of five covers during the a show that also saw performances of songs by Stevie Nicks (“Leather and Lace”), Tom Petty (“Free Fallin”), Robert Johnson (“Crossroads”) and Pine Top (“Every Day I Have the Blues”).
