The event listing on the Fillmore's website teases the special event, called Controlled Danger, saying, "You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll have bragging rights amongst your friend group for weeks to come."

Tickets for the two shows go on sale at Live Nation on Friday at 10 a.m. and will be offered for will call pickup only. The site also notes that cell phones and smart watches will not be allowed at the show, though the Fillmore will provide assistance to those who do bring such devices.

The dual talent event isn't the first time Mayer and Chappelle have worked together. In a "Chappelle Show" episode that aired in 2004, Mayer appeared in a sketch called "White People Dancing," wherein the rocker played electric guitar in an effort to get white people to dance on the streets of New York City.

Most recently, Chappelle appeared in two comedy specials for Netflix; Mayer announced a world tour in support of his most recent album, "The Search for Everything."

Chappelle also already sold out an unlisted show Thursday night at the Punch Line SF, the comedy venue confirms.

Controlled Danger featuring Dave Chappelle and John Mayer takes place at the Fillmore in San Francisco on April 28 and 29, 2017, at 9 p.m. Tickets go on sale at Live Nation on Friday, April 28 at 10 a.m.
