wow.One of the True Live Artist of today.His instrumental works with Greg Howe is out of this world ,this guy plays ,Jazz Fusion,Shred Neoclasical and Blues ..Plus his singing is awesome
Comparing John Mayer to Richie Kotzen? I'm all for everyone having their opinions, but in mine, the only comparison between these two is that they both are known for playing strats. Mayer is a fine guitarist, but Richie is phenomenal one. Frankly, Mayer's voice makes me angry, Richie's makes me want to cry. If you think Richie's a good blues player, you should go pick up some of his old instrumental shred albums and see just how versatile a guitarist he really is.
Great stuff!! Do you have Firehouse DVD live bootleg from Circo Voador made by Dead Montana Productions? Could you upload some videos from this show? Thanx in advance
I like Mayer fine. He's got his own kind of blues style. Its simple but effective. Its like everybody tries to be so complex, but Mayer just kept it simple and down to the blues and it works fine for him. But yeah, Richie is a god. Great guitar player, and a really dynamic voice.
john mayer??? first off when Ritchie was in his teens he could SMOKE mayer on guitar in all style, he was a damn good shredder, and ritchie's voice is much cooler that Mayer's...mayer is totally ripin off SRV vocal wise..pop fag
he still sucks at guitar. and i mean badly. it's like calling axl rose a great singer. or britney spears a great singer. just because they made it big, and idiots like that confuse that with being good..... sry. no way. slash sucks.
john mayer is a great blues player. but he can't even touch richie kotzen. not the same league. of course compared to slash, john mayer is incredible. slash can't play.
I play guitar... he is a competent player. Sure, he doesn't have the chops of a jazz fusion player, but he doesn't need them. Music isn't about the skill of the musician, its about the music. He writes catchy riffs, and his solos are simple yet melodic. As a result, GNR became the most popular rock band in the world. If skill made the music, Slash would be unknown compared to Buckethead.
Oh come on please! There are some much better younger blues players than Mayer. Like Joe Bonamassa, Kenny Wayne Shepherd etc. Mayer is wanna be blues player! Kotzen is Space Shuttle for Mayer.
I always remember you

Slash doesnt suck, these things are all very subjective, guys.
IMO, Slash is decent but a bit overrated due to prebuscent kids.
Oh and, Paul Gilbert ftw.

it's feedback at that point. it feeds back an octave up, but it's not really playing a harmonic.
