He's not smiling because he's stoned of his ass... Look at his eyes. And why blame him? He was in the Netherlands, where you can get stuff legal. 2 days after this concert he got sick, why do you think? :P Strong stuff
Of course he's not smiling. He's too busy impregnating that audience with his swag(2:41, 6:08, 6:50) to be thinking, "well golly gee, should I turn my frown upside down?"
The song's called "Gravity," folks. Not, "If You're Happy and You Know It."
if nobody ever copied anyone else we would be stuck with gregorian chants from the middle ages. that is how music evolves, through taking music that exists and adding variation.
he fuckin stole licks from srv's life without you. what a prick. the one hand legato playing is srv too. and the guitar on the floor playing is copied by him again.
@MrKalashnikitty srv took licks and played them in his own way, mayer copied the lick and inserted it into his pop ballad hit song. can you find the simmilarities?
@sepultribe666 The guitar on the floor playing.. Wasn't Jimi the first one who introduced all those gimmicks! Go fuck yourself.. Jimi Hendrix: "When I die, I want people to play my music, go wild and freak out and do anything they want to do!"
@voodooblueskid hmm alright alright, maybe a very little, but look at 0:06 then!! Come on, you're at a huge festival with 60000 people, and you cant even put a normal smile on your face? too bad...
@Rickos1803 come on! its part of his job to perform, to entertain people! If you have to entertain someone, do you do that by not smiling at all? Besides, I dont blame him, do I? I just said it was a shame he didnt smile... Peace out
stfu about guitar skills, they're both probably about 45489778x's better than you. And on top of that, john is widely accepted by legends such as BB king, buddy guy, eric clapton etc. to be the next great. Joe plays blues, but i feel like he just plays licks and really good improv. i don't FEEL emotion coming out of him when i listen. John's guitar tech was Stevie Ray Vaughan's(the legend of legends) guitar tech and he said "john's the only one who knows how to make a strat sound right."
so john is a good blues man... ok, I agree. He is a good guitar player. He is not a guitar god, like many people says.... for the love of god, see joe bonammasa, and then listen john again. but i don´t respect a man that pretend to be a blues man but records shitty pop songs just to get laid with teens. sorry.
@hungerstriker27 he doesn't pretend to be a blues man in any way shape or form, he likes it and incorporates bits to make his pop stuff better. its what makes him different and more diverse than joe bonammasa
I was there. John was sick that day, cancelled the rest of the dates in europe after that show. and STILL gave me the vere best preformance I have ever whitnessed in my entire life. thank you Mr. John Mayer.
@josh2steel tworock/dumble amp, guitar, reverb, some delay, a nice clean boost and a nice modern overdrive like a zendrive or a lovepedal or something.
@party1beast because this is youtube there is no point explaining why what you said is fucking dumb. so i'm just going to copypaste: you're an idiot, frankly.
no quiero morirme sin ver a este tio en directo! Es uno de los mejores artistas, guitarristas y compositores del mundo, espero que nunca deje de tocar ni de sacar discos!
