@Huberns yeah, it pissed me off that he wasn't mentioned in Rolling Stone's top 100 guitarists. More original and contributory than probably 95 of them. 'Course, you have to play to realize it.
@rben777 Tim is amazing. He's been a session guitarist on everything. What makes him so amazing is how he uses harmonics and drop tuning to accentuate not only Dave's guitar but also his voice. When they play together Tim uses his giutar to harmonize with Dave's voice.
@hammeredscout He and his wife are super humble. My friends' wife accompanied him on a business trip. She made friends with a woman and her kid at the pool. They discussed why they were therer. Dave's wife simply said her husband was playing a show nearby. My friends' wife asked where. Mrs. M replied " just a local venue" It was the Gorge. When she told her husband the story he flipped. Very humble, very cool.
this song is about dave getting into a car accident while drunk I am so glad he was fine and wrote a beautiful describing and reflecting on that memory
@Mikl0004 why are there always people pointing out the obvious? does it give you some sort of higher sensibility knowing that youve improved the world wide web for the greater good?
People are too concerned with what doesn't matter to them... If you ask me those who try to be mature by saying they know something as obvious as racism still happens today and then go as far as to complain about it... well that makes them as childish as they come
Thats not racist mate, its a satirical joke about the injustice of a black guy being turned away at a restaurant because of the colour of his skin. Try wiki-ing satire.. maybe you'll learn something. He is the patron of so many charities all over the world and a staunch liberalist.
@charliemurphyslaw Well, I dont' think Youtube will let me say it, but basically he boasted about the fact "Black people love me", Mayer says that he has been asked what it's like to have a hood pass, which he replied to using the, for lack of a better term, N-word, and said, "I can't really have a hood pass. I've never walked into a restaurant, asked for a table and been told, 'We're full.'"
@pseudogenesis Now if a black man said "White people love me." No one would care. Why is it that when a white man says the same thing about black people he gets shit for it. Its typical double standard that white americans put up with far to often. But as far as him saying the n word that was wrong but i think somewhere in there he was trying to make a point but his words really made no sense. I dont think hes a racist but someone who used a poor choice of words.
@charliemurphyslaw Did you happen to read past the first 20 words of my post? I recall saying that he called a hood pass a N--ger pass, and then told a racist joke. This proves that he is either racist or has no common sense. He honestly didn't even consider making generalizations about African Americans might stir up a little bit of controversy?
no one has a voice like his! its so unique! it closes my eyes and lifts my spirits! beautiful! dave has been my favorite for many years and his music has always helped when life disagrees with me, but a few years ago i was a passenger in a serious car accident that took the life of my friend sitting next to me. i almost couldnt believe my ears the first time i listened to this song. his music can be such a good friend during terrible times. thank u dave
I love the message. Dave you are a worker bee my friend, and that firey side reminds me so much of me...probably why I love your music so much. PS I love your wasted rambles haha!
good, but a few to many rounds there at the end maaaan.
