In his first solo show back since the pandemic began,John Mayerpaused mid-set to tend to an audience member who appeared to have passed out.
“Stop the show for one second. There’s a medic situation right here. Stop for a second. Are they conscious? Give me a thumbs-up if they’re alert. Need an AED? Well, that’s not someone who’s alert,” the musician called out in the middle of “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room” during SiriusXM and Pandora’s Small Stage Series at the Hollywood Palladium on Wednesday.
“I’m going to step off the stage for a second,” Mayer, 44, said as paramedics moved in to assist and the venue lights came up as the woman was placed in a wheelchair. He returned with his band minutes later and further addressed the incident.

Mayer’s 90-minute set then continued on, with the guitarist thanking friends and fans — includingJeff Ross, Heidi Klum and Tom Kaulitz, Olivia Culpo and Vanessa Hudgens and Cole Tucker — for their attendance.
“After a couple years, with so many changes and so many new things to watch and read and listen to and play, you still came out to see this show,” he said. “That means a lot.”
