some people might not know this but chuck norris picked a fight with john butler many years ago and the 12string hes using in this video john butler used to kill chuck norris in an epic fight, he is now scarred for life and chuck norris flinches whenever his name is said.
Everytime i hear this brings me back to some really magic moments...... listening to them for free at roebuck backpackers in Broome WA...generally inspire Freedom what ever side of the planet...it great and knew them before broome
On 30 June 2009 John Butler announced the new bass and drum musicians of the John Butler Trio to be Byron Luiters as the bassist and Nicky Bomba as the drummer and percussionist. Bomba, Butler's brother-in-law, has previously been a member of the John Butler Trio.
im enchanted. this is beautiful. HE is beautiful. id give anything for the ability to play like this. for now, i'll just sit and listen. pure class. ^_^
It defies description, but ill try. Simply the most beatiful song out there. To bad the common public havent been exposed to this kind of performance.
I'm a metal fan too. An enxtreme metal fan actually, listening to Children Of Bodom and In Flames. But this kind of playing; instrumental is awesome. I love this song. So beautiful <3 : D
i went nearly 300 kilometers to seh him in munich and he did not play peaches but still if he ever would be again in germany ill be there haha PEACE :)
in one way this makes me want to go out and learn how to play a 12 string and in another way it makes me want to shrivel up and cry because i suck so bad compared to him
Yes he is incredible. I saw him in Boston last summer and have tickets to see him again in August in Boston once again. If you ever get a chance to witness the truly religious experience of his show live, do it!!!!!
wow this is aboslutely fantastic.... there is a lot of similarality of this music with some Indian ragas. Something very pure and divine about this music form. Never mind if it doesnt hit the top of charts.... this is simply the best
@Spirit11 yeah ... but at least , thank god he's not just a busker anymore ! I think he actually does quite well out of music . That's at least a nice achievement for such a musician ... plus , when i see how jimi hendrix dealt with being a legend ... i know being the superstar is not the best place to be for a musician which wants to create . But yeah , i'd love if his music was on radio 24/7 . It's so good !
What a privlage to be able to hear this beautiful man play.

If you look closely, you should notice that its not a 12 string guitar but an 11 string guitar. His 3th string (normally the G) isn't double
