John Butler Trio / Funky Tonight

[TwoBucksShy]

look how many people are wearing hats.

[njd247365]

Probably the best video on youtube. EVER

[edoardoallertsen]

6 people couldn't make it in buying the tickets for the fuji rock festival :)

[tellytubby468]

This is soo much fun!! What an amazing performance!

[lubbooliver]

How the hell, he looks like he isn't even concentrating :) lol

[amandaedwards15]

Looks like a good as time, with some good ass music! Love John butler trio

[Alikidd999]

John likes asians, i've never seen him so happy :P

[nerdalert12345]

the thing i love about this performance is how much fun they're having. i have respect for every single artist ever, from justin bieber to lil wayne to john butler, its all music. but some of the other artists look almost forced to be playing. theses people are doing it purely for there enjoyment. its amazing :) <3

[thewhole100]

The audience is just awesome !! It must be a big joy to play in these stage! and we can see it on the faces of John Butler trio :)

[RafaCapilla]

6 people have lepra

[Lucenablues]

FANTASTIC!!!!

ALL THE BEST!!!

[BassicalyRock]

I love this video so much, obviously because of the amazing music, but also because they look like they're having so much fun onstage!

[rexorusus]

japanese people really like to wear hats...

[onewayproducts]

does anyone know how big his stretchers are ?

[Teunvz]

Damn, i miss Michael Barker and Shannon Birchall...

[kisshog]

John Butler looks like a hairy John Malkovich! Both of them are awesome, though... Great clip, btw!

[Pestashios]

5 people have no arms.

[mahapat3]

5 people tried to get funky tonight and failed. They are incapable of maintaining funk. They have Funk-tile dysfunktion. They require Funk Viagra.

[GotchaAhu]

yeahhh.. the japanese guys got style!!!

[supermuble]

Man, if you can finish this video, your brain will explode from pure joy.

[supermuble]

Never heard him ever before in my life, and I'm sold. Freaking amazing :) So talented, makes many other artists look so boring.

[918Transmissions]

4 people really don't like gettin funky i guess. like seriously who the hell? Look at em'! shakin the earth! yes. i know where i'm movin...

[japa8721]

Spread Love...

[MaracuJah]

É de se ficar com os olhos em bico... Ahuuuuuu muita bom flow!!

[jk1473]

serious, SERIOUS talent

[brane121]

I saw them already 3 times (lucky to live in Australia) and will do it 103 times more.THIS IS MUUUUUUUSIC!!!!!!!! This is top of the tops....people.....listen to the JBT!!!!!! How can you get anything better than this?????

[MrMaguinas]

THIS IS MUSIC!

[jewilzing]

what a great show! everyone dancing and messin around :) really cool

[wedjafly]

Perfeito! ;)

[pumukellll]

i love when musician have this honest smile  :D

[drmirandaxiv]

@pumukellll how can you not smile honestly with such an earnest crowd :D

[greatfallscarguy]

I lucked into a JBT concert over Labor Day not know what to expect, and they blew my mind..the best version of this song, is the version you get when you see them live!!!!

[Pestashios]

Fan-Fowkin-Tastic!!!! What a Smile !!!!!!! Next on the "To Do Before I Die List" : See JBT Live!!!!!!!

[jamesroberts466]

This. Is. AMAZING!

I love how JBT has so much fun while they're performing. :-)

[iAussieGuy]

john butler is a god, the best version of this song, love this song

[letshakehands]

Great Video!! Could you please upload more of the concert in this quality, thanks so much. :) Thumbs up if you want to see more, in HD.

[oorestisime]

best version of the song. Absolutely stunning....

Peace Love Respect

[quantumarchivist]

Shannon Birchall and Michael Barker were the REAL JBT. How does John fire his mates ?? Sad, this lineup is WAY WEAK in comparison !! At some point I will post my video to prove it :) The drum solo is as generic as the fedora hat. More and more like Jack Johnson everyday. At least he stands up now

[twigzn]

@quantumarchivist i actually prefer the new guy to the old set up, the old bass player had no personality, and the old drummer was good, but didn't get involved like this one does. I am looking forward to seeing them in concert tonight.

[jimbo5631]

@quantumarchivist shannon birchall actually left by choice as did micheal barker and nicky bomba was with john butler before micheal and left to do his own solo stuff after sunrise

[Gfunk200]

Just saw them live at Live at Squamish, and they rocked it like this for the best 40 mins of the festival. Keep it up guys LOVE IT

[BlackMirtes]

This. was. awesome.

[RimuJohn1]

Why do people dislike someone's music because more and more people are reconising good and very talented musicians instead of listening to the mass marketed, mass produced shit that is force fed to the public. who cares if he becomes "mainstream" he is still making amazing music

[TheTruth2769]

@RimuJohn1 in JBT case your right, other people def right to pls the mainstream, he still pretty much do in alot of the same, song structures of some newer songs are def in a mor pop format.

[AndrewHajek]

@RimuJohn1 because people are fucking stupid. Only like unpopular music puts you into a massive group of people that is ALSO marketed to by big business. No market is untapped. Who puts on small indie music festivals? 99% of the time it's beer companies.

[nopp1]

@RimuJohn1 John Butler isent mainstream stupid.

[jdkit]

Iv seen John Butler trio live on a few occasions, but not since the line up changed last. how do the new guys compare to birchall and bomba- cause they were fuckin epic musicians. and does anyone know why he keeps changing it? is just to keep the sound fresh?

[TPBXDRicky420]

Hipsters.......*facepalm*

[Zementkopf1]

So

many

fedoras

[zaq147369]

I used to Like John Butler until he went all mainstream, like seriously, almost 40,000 views?

[pastyourhorizon]

@zaq147369

That's because he's good and deserves to be more mainstream than most artists right now.

[jimbo5631]

@zaq147369 yet him playing to a crowd as big as that isnt mainstream?

[DeLachuga]

@zaq147369 wahhhh

[EToemmermo]

Wow, this is just incredible. Thank you John Butler, for making wonderful music!

[Esjar207]

@FreeMan549 nop since 0:00



[remixerbec]

ugh, holy crap. amazing.

[87paulsmith87]

his nails scare me

[DeLachuga]

torrent please someone help!!! just the audio please helppppp!!!!

[tophu1021]

is there a tape of this show?

[stancsssss]

@tophu1021 Maybe not this show, but judging by the setup and stuff for this tune theres a gig at Red Rocks which i got on amazon for a tenner, cd and dvd aswell :D

[paco024]

Bass player has horrible improvisational skills. Please John, bring back Shannon...

[theycallmenavid]

seeing them on the 17th!!!

[salamoon1]

is this the original line-up ?..the bass player and drumer seem to be different here than they used to.. the original guys looked like a bit better musicians IMO..or is it just for this kick ?

[jdkit]

@salamoon1 . this is the third possibly even the fourth line hes had. the last two guys are prob who you are thinking of. shannon Birchall and Nicky bomba

[St3vE011]

ONE M0:00RE TIME! :D

[leukocyte0325]

I don't think I've ever seen an audience w/ so many hats! what would be the adjective for wearing a hat? hatted? behatted?

[Red1k]

@leukocyte0325  Hatred ;))

[TheBadal35]

The audience have really the show's spirit =) This is great to see =)



[TheBadal35]

[riccik3]

[highwaytonowhere666]

JOHN BUTLER MAKES MY DAY HAPPIER!

[v3nus2020]

[freekvdbroek]

One guy is a complete retard!

[leopoloful]

@seanemm1195 The guy disliking this wonder, of course ;)

[sawssage]

seriously one of the bests things i have seen in my entire life. WHY isn't this the #1 most viewed video in the world?

[leopoloful]

Wowowo! One guy must be desperately deaf!

[seanemm1195]

@leopoloful what guy :L?

[osuracp]

his face in the beginning is priceless!!

[jlkdotcom]

its nice to see no dislikes. thats because only dudes with (for me) cool taste find it,and we know what is to play music straight from your soul,heart.That also explains that people like JB jam songs even more.

peace,love,respect,freedom

may good thougts be with you

[emuscles]

i like how he's asking them to do that wave, and they're all like nah-- i speak japanese dude.

[zizaludba]

the only vid on youtube with ZERO dislike :)

[seanemm1195]

@zizaludba except for half of his other vids lol

[MarloesJoost]

NICE NICE NICE!!!

[ScrewYootoobPolicies]

I wish I was there. Oh... my... gawd.

[theycallmenavid]

why is youtube only showing my views?

[drdiotte1]

Kick ass quality!!! Can't wait to see him again in September this year.

[theycallmenavid]

i saw this live, blew my mind. they did the drum thing too. amazinggggggggggggg

[drbas81]

it is sad, that someone, who plays such nice music, must have red communistic star on his hat... communists would put him into prison for such a music in my country 20 years ago...

[TheNickthequik]

i have been a big butler trio fan for about 9 years or so now... and to tell you the truth... i started to loose it a bit with the latest slbum.

HOWEVER!!! after watching this fuji rock gig.... i got my stoke back with the band! i mean don't get me wrong.. i dig the last album... but i definately prefer the older stuff personally... big 2 thumbs up for the energy in this gig.

peace and love.

[AndreasZimmerman]

I very much enjoyed the over-reverbed cowbell :B

[Mountagon]

i hope he'll never stop making music

[HughWheelerDrums]

that was amazing!

[MrSekes10]

where can i find the whole concert?

[JDvzs]

@MrSekes10

I'm afraid you can't man :\ They've already deleted the video where it was just John playing Ocean. I've already downloaded this one so I can keep it ;)

[hmn4466]

He is so much talented. I discovered them one year ago and he still amazes me. Such a unique style of playing, great voice, great tunes, amazing jams. Man... they are so underated.

[Timmahhh86]

[TheSozimal]

There was a version of Fuji Rock 2010, where JB plays Ocean (in HD). sadly it got deleated :( Can anybody tell me how I could get another copy of that? Or could anybody please upload it? There are no good versions of him playin Ocean in HD. Its too sad! P.S.: Thanks in advance!

[dm037728]

[massesy]

Kinda seems one of the best live things by JBT here on youtube! Just amazing!

[swally2005]

i have NEVER, EVER seen a japanese crowd this energetic and responsive...usually they are very polite and reserved. you can tell that john is just feeding off the energy. AMAZING!!!

[MrSkagDaddy]

I've just discovered these guys today and it's been the best day ever! Every video I see is beter than the last!! This blew my mind! MUCH respect to these guys!
