[JamesJ3312]

i watch this video everyday and by no means does it ever get old

[spanky2964]

@JamesJ3312 Thank you! I have watched it so many times that I began to think that there was something wrong with me.He just rapes that guitar,steve jordan has to be an alien,pino never misses a beat,tight as fuck for a three piece.J

[JamesJ3312]

@spanky2964 oo dude i think the same way like this perfection if there ever was such a thing, that intro riff puts me into endorphin

[TylerGillMusic]

Pino I want your babies

[iFonk79]

By anychance, does anybody know what Ride cymbal Steve Jordan is using? It's sounds great! I know it may be tough to see from the video, I'm just curious.

[flphinatic]

holy shit he actually messes up at 0:28-0:30 this is literally the only time I've ever seen him mess up

[Smartiesvreter]

Lol John is high as hell.

[PinkFZeppelin]

@Smartiesvreter He's open about smoking weed, which I think is bad ass.

[Twanger73]

John is so lucky to play with these guys lol

[wasoto]

[Mojmit]

[p0rsch997]

[derriev1967]

mayer rules

[Yamazuki23]

Shit Steve Jordan Beats The SHIT outta those drums!

[geekyt4]

i honestly believe John Mayer has created his own genre. I find myself trying to listen to blues and, it's hard! Unless I only like blues rock.

[JThundered]

i love how at 3:06, the drummer pounds the drums and John starts playing Power Of Soul by Jimi Hendrix.

[tempuramonster]

Steve fucking Jordan everybody.

[MarcoSassetti]

@tempuramonster yeah!



[riffman1218]

[nicollas1011]

[McKeee0326]

@863games I heard from johns bio that t around 17 he had a bad heart problem that hospitalized him and changed his life. Maybe that's why. But he has it either way

[Slaty123]

Steve Jordan play so tight!!!

[utubedestroysmytime]

these niggas are straight up blazed

[MrVeeRob]

Whenever I read a comment from someone saying this musician is better than that musician, I immediately decide the poster knows absolutely NOTHING about music, and prefers to spend his/her time engaged in fan warfare.

[spanky2964]

@MrVeeRob Amen my friend,merry Christmas

[MrVeeRob]

@spanky2964 Merry Christmas to you as well.

[863games]

The thing with blues is it's either a god given gift or you've been through a lot and it comes over time. There's no way he's been through a lot as a child. So I guess he ws born with the blues.

[namejeppe7]

Those three guys are my heroes :D When it comes to blues/rock noone does it better today ;)

[KhillzDoode]

3:55 LOL he's getting a blow job..

[nostabssor]

Cocaine man

[13CIRCLE]

Wow....John Mayer comes from a super rich jewish family. What Blues does he possibly have in him?  Jew boy play blues...trying to sing like SRV..

[bifenacueca]

Stevie FUCKING Jordan

[matthewmuliadi]

damn steve jordan....

[DiamondMusicChannel]

Did Elvis just walk off the stage at the start? I thought he was dead.

[derriev1967]

@DiamondMusicChannel he returned just listen to john mayer

[jcart09]

Holy shit, that was absolutely amazing.

[mikeAREA7]

[Tricksalot]

@Mrgoodfella2468 the fellow on the drums is steve jordan, if that's the man you're referring to

[Mrgoodfella2468]

@Tricksalot naw man, i was referring to the bass player, pino, jamming to steve's sick drum beat. thanks though

[Mrgoodfella2468]

this song pumps me up

[manutummi]

WHY THE HELL THE AUDIENCE DID NOT SCREAM AND CRY AND HAVE SEX WHEN THE SONG FINISHED?

[manutummi]

This guitar is for sure older then me

[calebonar]

@manutummi Its actually a 2007?..06?... Custom Shop baby!

[CAPT4INSL0W]

@calebonar the first "black 1" that he plays everywhere was made in late 03 I believe. Lots of Continuum was recorded with it.

[dylanmarshall8]

I don't care how much of a nob I would look.... I want the glasses.

[569013]

at 1:20 the guy behind its saying :  wtf? is he playing that and singing at the same time?

[beleloy808]

@569013 i having problems singing this song while playing it >,<

[artyspawn]

There were a couple of moments in this vid where I thought Steve Jordan was going to go out of time for the first time in his life. The streak continues.

[spanky2964]

Holy Fuck,The Dumble,The Two Rock,Pino and Steve!When you play in a three piece you Have to be so fucking tight,there is nothing else to cover any mistakes.I do not have a gay bone in my body and I could have sworn that my pants were on when I started watching this video!

[TubeYourTV]

...... copying, there's STILL a good reason why you keep hearing everybody thinks you're a douchebag. Stevie would probably ignore you

[JonnyZywiciel]

@TubeYourTV

If SRV was still alive, I'm sure John would have collaborated with him MANY times - don't be so blatantly jealous of John, your rationalizations aren't fooling anyone.

[TubeYourTV]

@JonnyZywiciel BULL F'N SHIT! Just because Stevie was an awesome, genuine person doesn't mean he would've "collaborated" with any DICK (Mayer) who can play a guitar. Mayer is a major ASS on steroids! NOT talking about his music. Musically, he's great (except for the flamingly GAY falsetto shit he always pushes into practically every song...so annoying.) But, 90%, I like his MUSIC. HE as a person, as a human being is a total DICK, and he sucks ass in concert. He doesn't give a 'show" at all.

[TubeYourTV]

@JonnyZywiciel Furthermore, even IF SRV would've collaborated with Mayer (AKA DICK), that doesn't mean shit! The ONLY reason why Clapton and Buddy Guy even have anything to do with Mayer is because like I said he plays well. BUT that's where it ends! I SERIOUSLY doubt any of those guys or much less SRV would have hung out or been good friends with MR. DICKHEAD Mayer. Again to recap: Mayer music=good Mayer as a person= Huge Dick and Douchebag wannabe.

[TubeYourTV]

@JonnyZywiciel I bet everytime Mayer gets a chance to gig with those blues greats he thinks to himself, Wow, I fooled them again! Haha! Whereas when Clapton gets to play with Buddy Guy or BB King, he thinks to himself, "Cool, I get to hang out with some of my friends." Mayer is a TOTAL outsider and the REAL reason he even gets to play with those guys is cuz he SELLS well. BUt, he's still a 100% Pure dick. I'd LOVE to have a chance to break his teeth if I ever saw him in NYC or LA doing whatever.

[TubeYourTV]

@JonnyZywiciel One more thing.Read the bio for some of the blues greats. Many have at least a couple things in common: 1.) They are from POOR beginnings. 2.) Most importantly, they've suffered with something, e.g. alcohol, drugs, other addictions, serious family problems, tragic DEATH of very, very close loved ones, ect. The bio of Mayer the wannabe reads like a label of a can of soup: BORING. Born and raised in Connecticut, upper middle class, 1 brother, older Jewish parents, Berklee College

[crashofzar]

@TubeYourTV you sir, are a dick.

[JonnyZywiciel]

@TubeYourTV

I'm not going to argue with you because you seem very entrenched in your belief that Mayer is a "100 % pure dick". I happen to disagree to a large degree, but I don't know the guy personally so I won't judge. I also don't believe that playing the blues has anything to do with the aforementioned "tragedies" you articulated, but that's a personal notion and I can understand that. I do believe, however, that he's introducing funk, blues and soul to a generation largely

[JonnyZywiciel]

@TubeYourTV

unfamiliar with the genres, and he's doing it quite well in my opinion. He's doing much more good than he is harming anyone. Try to do the same.

[MrGoble66]

@TubeYourTV So let me ask you a very important question, and let it be known that depending on your answer one of us is going to come out a winner and the other will come out a total fucking retard. Do you Mr.TubeYourTv personally know Mr.John Mayer?

[TubeYourTV]

John Mayer, biggest DICKHEAD DOUCHE to ever pick up a guitar. Anyone who wears THOSE sunglasses belongs on the Jersey Shore or as the asshole on a high school spring break. SRV wannabe!! Hey Mayer, you can buy ALL of Stevie's equipment, the Dumble, even use Rene his guitar tech BUT you'll NEVER come close!! Haha! AND YOURE NOT FOOLING ANYONE! Stevie loved Hendrix and covered his songs. But, when did you ever see him try to buy the same Marshall full stack? Anyway, even if he did, apart from the

[LAGUPE]

@TubeYourTV

I don't know the feeling... but, in this level, jealous hurts?

[gromshit101]

Just to let everyone know this song is SOOO HARD to play and sing, props to john!

[Jasss10]

0:25 im the king!

[beefy19841192]

Seven people deserve to be punched in their stupid faces....

[DHicht]

what's this guitar ????model ???please, tell me!!!

[epicalice]

@DHicht its his Black1 signature strat.

[bastardokwatro]

Thumbs up for Steve Jordan and Pino Palladino! And of course, for Mayer, too. I hope this trio releases a new album soon. A different kind of blues.

[luksik2]

pino paladino respect!

[GerryB1110]

Best ever episode of theatre of life

[1952Telecaster]

time for a paint job on that strat

[Ragz25T]

@1952Telecaster You get a better sound with less paint.

[MJGirl94]

THIS IS EPIC

[DUDEFROMDUTCHLAND]

Love it how the drummer kicks in :D

[chickenmarbles1]

@DUDEFROMDUTCHLAND ya steve jordan is a beast

[drumslinefreak]

Stevie Jordan, AMAZING

[Joostieboy]

Stevie reincarnated through Mayer's soul

[ZeppelinFan6980]

1:09 - If I wasn't watching a video I would bet my life that was SRV.

[SplitSpades11]

@ZeppelinFan6980 you know the part that could have been SRV was 3:24! The way he shook the guitar and held the bends was so SRV! Reincarnation...I don't think so. But he really is one hell of a "good as it gets" nowadays!

[jlebesis]

I love music that's just played with so much passion...all the musicians on this stage are a perfect example of that. And I'm not even a huge Mayer fan, but fuck you have to admire that!

[EBB47]

Press 9 for orgasm....

[MrDietz7]

I came at 0:29...

[drumkendrum]

STEVE JORDAN the only man i know that can pull off the duck face and look good!

[Rockdog371]

he's everything, hendrix and clapton

[SimLar86]

God! I wanna be John Mayer...

[BryanSmith66]

Hendrix from Band of Gypsies at the end ... badassville, only thing missing was octofuzz

[BassGuitarUke]

STEVE JORDAN EVERYONE!!

[DarkVoid22]

"Good Afternoon..... I'm gonna play the shit out this guitar real quick"

[bobagton]

muito foda queria ta nesse festival, eu iria ficar lokão!

[MrGuitarb1rd]

I hope that guitar was at least 18.

[spinasweetness]

he damn well better have bought that guitar dinner.

[TheBsk5150]

@spinasweetness that is the funniest fucking thing I've ever read on YouTube. I'm stealing it.

[charliePRsk8er]

if i were that guitar, i could sue john mayer for rape

[SuperWillBass]

@charliePRsk8er You could say that for the bass and the drums too, theres pretty much 3 counts of rape happening at once and everyone is powerless to stop it!

[asharfina4186]

@charliePRsk8er it's not rape if the guitar wanted it :D lol

[rizwantakkhar]

It's artists like John Mayer that make me miss SRV like crazy. -_-

[CMSpida]

2:47 Gandalf the Black YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

[eliasffs]

That drummer is so awesome

[JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@eliasffs The drummer????? Hahahahaahaha

[eliasffs]

@JusticieroDeLaMuerte Yes? :p And of course the other two! Haha. But I love his style, sooo much power!

[JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@eliasffs Hahahahahaahaha... Steve Jordan, man!!!!!!! MR. FUCKIN' AWESOME STEVE JORDAN!!!! That's the drummer's name :DDDDDDDD

[mikemantle14]

2:15 synchronized head bangs lol

[karlremus83]

2:06 hehehe

[konstapelwalander]

imagine being the camera man in the background... must... film... straight....... must... headbang....

[banazo00]

@konstapelwalander i literally just lol'd

[NathanPeacockFilm]

Steve Jordan ladies and gentlemen!... Oh yeah John Mayer and Pino Palladino too..

[Bluesisnotrock]

It is John Mayer Trio

[Mrgoodfella2468]

STEVE JORDAN!

[tatahbh]

john lindo, sara logo

[MrSongman71]

@MrMarkIvee........No offense....don't get me wrong. But you and I both as musicians, know that it always isn't about the best players getting together. It's about the chemistry. I think they MUST have found that in Jordan, or they wouldn't have chosen him. I'm sure they dident have trouble finding people to audition.

[CabbatheHot]

damn that drummer is awesome!

[MrVeeRob]

I love how each instrument is like..... right OUT THERE...nothing gets lost. Each of the players is a master in his own right....and the brilliance comes through in every note for each of them. This is the perfection via the rule of thirds, the golden mean.

[KeyserZoso]

This is how you should drum. Thank you Steve Jordan. We need another Trio album stat!

[MrMarkivee]

@KeyserZoso i think you meant to say "should not drum." simple mistake, no worries.

[RoKr93]

@MrMarkivee i don't pretend to be an expert on drumming...but steve jordan strikes me as a damn good drummer. what don't you like about him?

[MrMarkivee]

@RoKr93 compared to the legends like Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, Steve Gadd, Carter Beauford, Dave Weckl, and others, Steve Jordan is at best a "good" drummer. Dont get me wrong, I mean dont mean to demean the guy. He's made a living in music so definitely good for him, but I've been a drummer for nearly 20 years and all my life i've heard the names that i've listed above. it wasnt until this year that i heard the name Steve Jordan. All i'm saying is that John and Pino could've picked better.

[MrMarkivee]

@MrMarkivee no offense taken, and you're probably right about that. I guess my frustration comes from the fact that people say that Steve Jordan is one hell of a drummer, and I know that I can drum circles around him. True talent is overlooked, and people only look for the "name" now. Ask any true drummer who Buddy Rich or Gene Krupa are, and they'll know. These new people who think Steve Jordan is the absolute greatest, have no idea who these legends are. It's that naivety that frustrates me.

[sadiQium]

I'm a champ  0:27

[princecaspion]

Another example of a stage not being too big for John Mayer...

[AlterBridgeRule]

I must of watched this video about a million times in the past two days. Phenomenal, thanks for uploading!

[schimitar18]

now u know how JM's cum face looks like

[KhalDrogo76]

@schimitar18 isnt that every song when he sings?

[schimitar18]

@KhalDrogo76 well most of it haha
