Même si Mayer est pas super connu en France, y'en a quand même beaucoup qui l'apprécie à ce que je vois (moi y compris) :) Reste plus qu'il vienne maintenant :D
What a performance ! John is the only current (to my knowledge) artist who's worth to see live. I wish he will come to France soon, he's not famous here, but when some dude is "bluesing" his guitar this way, fame doesn't count, music is the only rule !!
When I first started playing guitar, this solo inspired me to keep practicing so that one day I could play it. Now I can play is (although not as great as John) and it's awesome. :)
John has this way of mixing passion with dynamic and awe inspiring guitar playing. Notice how he goes from full on SRV style solo to a soft and passionate heart felt solo and back again to a SRV inspired solo. The best Dynamic guitarist alive today
I don't know why anyone calls this rape. I'm pretty sure the guitar had a really freakin' good time doing this, too. Just 'cause she's a screamer doesn't mean she's getting raped.
this song in itself defines his talent. because of his pop music, he'll never get the respect as a guitar playing that he should have. at least other musicians have taken notice. Not just anybody is invited to Eric Clapton's Crossroads guitar festival for several years, or asked to tour with Double Trouble to fill SRV's spot...
When I was younger, I couldn't watch Any Given Thursday because of these jeans. Now that I'm older and more mature, they don't phase me as much. The music's just too beautiful. Wish I could wear jeans like that and still get girls.
I can never tell whether John's off his head or whether he's deeply in to the music, the latter I suppose. Regardless it's one of the best perfomances i've ever seen, big Mayer fan!
Saw this same show in Madison, Wisconsin one month before it was recorded and knew when I heard that song that this guy was definitely one of those rare musicians that only comes along once in a great while. Must have been less than 1000 in the audience in a stadium that seated 5-6,000. I was ecstactic when this DVD came out, knowing I could hear this song again before the media grabbed him and he "grew up". Just purely awesome!!
This is easily John's best performance. It is even better then his Gravity performance from Where the Light Is. To put it simply John is the most talented musician that is out currently and all future guitarists should aspire to be like him.
@silentsniper900 haha there is already a massive guitarist following of him
but the gravity solo is better.. this solo is heavily influenced by SRV.. by the gravity solo, his style is a lot more John Mayer than SRV.. the gravity solo is simpler, and to me it evokes emotion more than any other solo has done ever before
i'm not saying this solo isn't brilliant! i'm learning it atm! haha
Just heard this song for the first tim a few weeks ago. My mind is completly blown. I dont even know where to start. I cant put the way it makes me feel into words.
Goosebumps all over my body. John's putting all his feeling in his guitar, it's beautiful. The passion and feeling in his playing, that's the thing what John makes one of the best guitarists right now. It would be fantastic to sit down during your own gig, to play beautiful riffs and everyone in the crowd is listening quiet. It's sad that not many people know this song, but they only know Half of my Heart and YBIAW. Good songs, but this is the real John Mayer.
My favourite performance from anybody to ever live on this earth. I love how he puts his whole heart into the song you can tell how much he loves what he is doing in this performance. And his guitar playing is sooo good, better than Ive ever heard. Love him :)
I don't think I've ever seen someone performing with such a deep feeling, feeling the music and playing from within his soul, f*ckin amazing ability to put his feelings into his music, few musicians can do that... beautiful video..
This might be the best performance ive ever seen of any kind. Youtube or not i dont care, this was fucking aweseome. Hearing those nice blues licks really touches my soul and certainly tells me that SRV is not dead, not even close and wont be for long! Amazing!
@wainerkorven Toss up between this one and "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" on 'Where the Light is'. Both are amazing. For pure, get down and jam awesomeness... its this one. For incredibly melodic and emotional fusion... (I guess thats the right word?) ... its probably Slow Dancing. Either way... superb artist, and this is definitely one of the bestlve performances out there. :)
@20GuitarZero07 Wow! I havent checked in here in a while. 10 months and so many thumbs up! I can still say i listen to this song almost everyday. And yes, i agree with you, slow dancing isnt bad ^^ I even have a clip of me playing it here, few months old, to prove that its also one of my favourites :)
