John Mayer - Who Did You Think I was (Live in LA) [High Def!]

[157rocker]

What a solid performer! Definately inspired by JH, but with his own voice and talent...

[ifilmandotherstuff]

LOOSE AND COLOURFUL.

[yalami7]

i would loooove to have this dvd! ♥

[SuperGamer87]

@yalami7 Buy it. You'll never regret it. He starts it like a boss, he keeps it like a boss, he ends it like a boss. It's one of those solid concerts on film people 20 years from now will call one of the best.

[MrViktorPersson]

@yalami7 No! On bluray :)

[Niatsirc]

Pino!

[MrAltairee]

In the 70's, there were less haters.

[puyol120]

If John did THE SAME THING in the 70's, he would be considered an legend, just like Hendrix. But nowadays people are more worried in talkin' shit bout new artists than recognizing them.

[vanhart89]

he tore it up on that guitar

[Chloannabell]

... Legend

[Tucker8720]

if only more people knew how amazing John was at playing guitar. Everyone knows john mayer for his pop stuff and a lot of people dont like him for it, i think its great though. But this stuff just blows me away. He's so damn talented. He really needs to do some more blues stuff.

[Dvermoet]

@Tucker8720 i totally agree! people don't like his pop songs or stuff but DAMN his blues songs are freakin awesome and his guitar skills are absolutely amazing! he is so freakin talented wheter you like it or not haha

[HectorGS1000]

Gran bajeo!!! Great bass line!!!

[fehbabones]

Nice... the bass line after the music is a part of Power - Marcus Miller

[tinch716]

Love there are 0 dislikes :)

[AchillesTheSwift]

The Michael Jordan of drumming: Steve Jordan.

[christianraccstar]

Sex....

[MrCheesepizzaisgood]

Then wouldn't that make him a legend too?

[benbrenn]

Amazing guitarist, great band

[xxxGuZZixxx]

heh Pino is destroying that bass

[nea1451]

Fun. Wit. Groove. Heat. Just like good sex. Love it!

[MiSTeRGrilL127]

awesome guy""... I like you... sO SO

[dreamquarter]

i think he wrote this song to everybody who thought that he was just a pop guy.

"am i the one who plays the quiet songs? is he the one who turns the laides on? who did you think i was?"

[dookiebabii]

@dreamquarter isn't this a hendrix cover? :o

[dreamquarter]

@dookiebabii the second part of the video is a hendrix song

[SubsistenceSC]

@dookiebabii No... he wrote this song... Hendrix would never write something like this. The riffs are similar to his styling, but the lyrical content....no. No, no, no, no, no.

This proves that John Mayer is so good that people confuse his songs for the legends... I bet if some people knew this was his song, they'd instantly say it's shit despite them liking it in the first place...

[dookiebabii]

@SubsistenceSC I totally agree man! This proves how good he really is!

[conbaz106]

@SubsistenceSC

actually the lyrical content is right up the alley of hendrix..."i carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand" would fit right into Voodoo Chile

[300sec2midnight]

@SubsistenceSC absolutely right man.

[lnr08f]

@SubsistenceSC You don't know for sure that John Mayer wrote this song. A lot of artists, including Mayer, have ghost writers.

[bellybuttoncheesewiz]

@lnr08f he went to Berklee. People who go to Berklee don't have "ghost writers".

[SubsistenceSC]

@lnr08f Mayer doesn't have a ghost writer.......

[nostabssor]

@SubsistenceSC not for the trio but he does for his solo work. doesnt matter though b.c the trio is all that really matters

[Donut1337]

@lnr08f Mayer writes all his songs... I mean he probably jams with other artists and adopts things in his songs but he is a songwriter

[17agarreaud]

@SubsistenceSC hey this is actually power of love by hendrix. its my favorite song by him and i instantly knew it was his. John did a cover!! you know, covers DO exist!!!

[palmster56]

@17agarreaud Hey, the outro yes is Hendrix, but the actual song in which this video is titled is Mayer.

[SubsistenceSC]

@17agarreaud Yeah, the outro is Power of Love by band of gypsies. He usually ends the song on variations of that riff. Check out his Crossroads 2010 performance. He does a better impression of Hendrix on that outro than here.

[BryceShuster]

@SubsistenceSC The ending song riff was all Hendrix...just wanted to point that out. Solo was obiviously improvd

[sockmaister]

@dreamquarter it's a cover smart one.

[MichaelDamaniMusic]

@sockmaister @2:35 its a cover. but before that it's their song.

[SubsistenceSC]

@sockmaister ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? THIS IS A MAYER ORIGINAL!!!!! 

Shows how much you know, "smart one".

[loho174]

@dreamquarter who cares the fact that he chose to play it and in this style shows that he wants to show his true blues side...and of course all his crazy ass skills!!!

[koen160]

0:45
