John Mayer could be seen taking part in guitar and taking solos throughout Dead & Company’s most up-to-date present, regardless of having one finger strapped up.

He not too long ago injured the index finger of his left hand however vowed it wouldn’t be a difficulty when he hit the stage because the band nears the tip of its residency on the Sphere in Las Vegas.

Last week Mayer confirmed off the protected digit and blamed a truck door for the injury, writing on Instagram, “The first thing that went through my mind was, ‘I really need that finger in a week.’ I need all my fingers, but the left index is the team captain of my fretting hand.”

He continued: “It will heal just fine, but will be out of commission for a while. In the meantime, I have spent every day practicing guitar using the other three fingers and I think I have it sounding pretty good!

“I’ve always felt like every part of me belongs to these shows, and it’s my responsibility to return to the stage each night without screwing up the equipment, and I’m sorry for the misadventure here. The power of the music and the love for these shows will prevail!”

He added that the venue offered the chance “to delight and surprise people more than they expected … with this big empty canvas and this really big palette.”
