Cheeerssss

"take ya on a bit of a journey mayb." nuff said

[Dam121594]

this song is so amazing, i saw the John Butler Trio at the Pavilion in Boston August 5th, and Ocean was easily the best song he played.

[xxLedZep420xx]

This man kidnapped my conciousness mad sweet love to it then placed him back to reality

[countroshculla]

Amazing what this dude can do with a 12 string guitar.

[celebritymax]

@countroshculla 11 strings dude

[cwwiss1]

nailed it!

[Aquashkhar]

It takes alot of experience with the guitar as well as in life to create an instrumental with such feeling and emotion in it. It sounds like John Butler put his entire soul and existance in this song. Gotta love that.

[pacheeks0896]

amazing song... truly inspiring

[maguewlito]

all those motherfucker who don't give a shit about us!

[raxsade]

the best acoustic guitar instrumental

[xaimepacheco]

Impresionante!!!!

[cityondown78]

Doesn't need words.

[supertom85]

I'm pretty sure JB isn't human, because no human can play guitar like that. Ergo, he is a robot.

[CoeurDuPetitPrince]

@supertom85

No robot can feel and inspire like that :)

[sjaxxun1]

This is an astounding piece of music whatever your preferences. I am a more classical person but the pulsing energy of this piece is incredible. To quote a line from the movie Amadeus, "I did not think music like this was possible!"

[mcoady4]

what city was this?

[lankz69]

amazing

[lamboga89]

WAKARUSA 2010!!!

[duuude907]

im still getting used to the new look, i mean short hair first and now gauges? not saying it looks bad just so different from old him. but his music is still soooo amazing and inspiring

[spotify59]

Joint up the hat

[EnragedImp]

8:26, who cares whose next we want john!!!

[PrayForSnow5]

Could hurt yourself playing this

[louisegirl90]

Favourite bit is 6:33 So goooood

[Zeke420]

Saw him when he was not very well known. Walked right past me and my buddy and on to stage, and preceded to blow our minds.

[VicFirth59]

it´s so amazing

[pbprof21]

I still remember this exactly as it happened. And when I look back on it I feel warm and happier inside, it reminds me of one of the best summers of my life and my amazing time at Lolla that year. Jon Butler Trio definitely made that a music festival to remember.

[rockblueslove]

absolutely mesmerizing! all out! thank you john butler trio!!!

[sitarooman]

my favorite version

[PatMurph245]

he's been playing that exact same version for a year and a bit now.

[prjctcivilian]

not the exact. maybe on the tube but online you'll find enough crazy versions

[xxLedZep420xx]

pure ecstacy

[penguinharry]

love his nails

[SurfieLove]

I also saw him at the Byron Bay Blues Fest. Mind Blowing again lol ♥

[SurfieLove]

He played this on spicks and specks once, mind blowing.♥

[cwwiss]

that is what we all are...from dust to dust..we are made of such stuff as dreams are made on and this little life is rounded with a sleep...Shakespeare

[cwwiss]

What a piece of work is a man, how noble in reason, how

infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and

admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like

a god! the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals—and yet,

to me, what is this quintessence of dust?

[xxLedZep420xx]

what do u mean 'quintessence of dust'?

[cwwiss]

Absolutely amazing..this is the 7th version of ocean i've got and bugger me if that one didn't bring a tear to my eye..damn!

[shenze11]

I WAS THERE!!!! ...and after the show hes was chilling on the street behind the stage in a golf cart...just him and his buddy...got to shake his hand...sweet moment for me being a guitarist and all...

[shenze11]

what a treat this was for my life....

[jam4real]

unbelievable...pure musical genious this man

[shakenbake228]

this is pure joy

incredible

[JeanLouLeHotDogDuval]

Bravo mon Johnny

Nice job;)

[mhtths]

I was second row, my favorite song performed at lollapalooza by far. John is a great festival performer. He has fun on stage with the crowd, doesnt try to cram songs in, he jams out every song its awesome a must see!!!

[Shawn8184]

F*%@#&^ amazing as always! It dosent get better than JBT!

[Bjordahl]

I have yet to see him and it pisses me off. he and his band are the best in my book.

They spelled his name wrong...?

Peace

[NapkinMurderer]

i was at this performance, and met him and his band after, they were all the nicest dudes!!

i felt like i was in a different universe when he played this btw.

[WayinTruth]

I was center stage. This performance gave me goosebumps. It was absolutely mind-numbing.

[eschlera]

i was there, i damn near cried

[shreddTlife]

no offense, but he isn't doing much himself, those concerts actually put a drain on the economy realistically looking at it, and the environment still get affected by it... but whatever i love Johnny B as much as the next person

[WayinTruth]

How the fuck does it put a drain on the economy? Local shops and businesses get maybe triple the customers in chicago, not to mention, ticket prices and the transits. Chicago is a booming metropolis to begin with, but when 60,000 more people pretty much take over downtown chicago's hotels, food & drinks joints, and transportation including busses and subways. Not to mention the vendors who sponsor the concert and sell of bottled water, beer, food...a lot of money went into that concert...

[shreddTlife]

sorry i meant the environment

but what you said right there is true

sorry

[spartan9185]

and who gives a fuck about the environtment anyway?

[jeremythezombie]

haha i was right in front smoking a bowl during this show... so orgasmic.

[pjvedder2]

ya, At&t can really spell good cant they?

[dalekid1]

cant belive they mispelt his name.

[Austrailian4Beer]

This is SICK!!! Thanks for posting. ONE LOVE!

[pureashoney]

I had the pleasure of seeing them this very day! Let me say this performance is so inspiring,, words cannot describe how I feel listening to this, right now!! I've watched this at least 30 or so times tonight! Bless you guys for making such powerful and moving music!

[Idoknow19]

@pureashoney I remember seeing this number. We had just wandered in at the end of the song before this, sat down because we liked the sound, and were left absolutely speechless. What an incredible moment.

[shenze11]

@pureashoney I also was there. :) . left the festival after his show and walked on the street behind the stage, and there he was sitting in a golf cart with one of his buddies... got to shake his hand... havnt washed it since... haha jk.

[rqbrdshp19]

i got chills watching him play this song and the rest of the set, so good, i get chills just listening, sooo talented

[minilou84]

Quite simply awesome !

[richieasc]

JB = GOD

[floydfan8]

DEFINITELY a major highlight of the entire weekend

[hewsthat]

most amazing thing i saw in all three days

[rhcp1393]

yeah man this was pretty sick, was one of the top 3 performances of the day by far

[shenze11]

I WAS THERE, and I shook his hand after the performance...i thanked him for a great show and said thanks alot... i wish i got a picture or autograph but i just walked away cause i didn't wanna be an annoying fan...but what a fukin honour

[butlerzboy]

that stuffed his name up down the bottom left,

[MicheleADelic]

THIS was so memorable.... my mind was blown... i had never seen something so glorious in all my life... in person!''YAY LOLLA!

[youngbla]

[blitz3211]

this show was one of the bests concerts ive ever been to. just watching john butler play was amazing.

[NapkinMurderer]

I WAS THERE!!!! IT WAS AMAZING!! i was in the 3rd row the whole time, u can see me in this vid!

[hmac2222]

This absolutely blew my fucking mind live.

[shenze11]

one of my favourite performances of the festival... i saw him outback on the street after his performance just chilling in a golf cart with a buddy... i was in shock, not just because i was gonna meet him but because he didn't have a crowed of people around him... but i still had the privilege of shaking those magical hands...one of the highlights of my weekend...

[DudeAsInCool]

WOW!

[cubbyblue272]

unbelievable song, great performance at lolla

[cubs1204]

one of the best live solos ive seen, that and the fact that i was baked off my ass when i saw this made it an amazing fucking song, i wish they played longer than an hour

[Seymore190]

This was my first time seeing JBT live, and it was all that I could have asked for. Ocean is such a wonderful song.

[floydfan8]

this was AMAZING
