I'm going to jump ahead of annoying rock magazines and before John finally getting smoe recognition when he's old and say that this performance features one of the best guitar solos of all time. Greatly underrated. It's not a shred. It's not a jam. (And he's done his share of both.) It's just a smooth ride, classy, soulful and mellow. As a guitarist myself and lover of a sweet solo, I know how rare a beautiful solo like this one here are these days and appreciate this one. Thanks, John!
this song was on repeat all summer... and now it's cold outside, my classes are getting harder, and all i want is to go back to summer, so it's on repeat again.
Seriously, I can't get enough of this. I feel like every artist on that stage is just like. F%$^ yeah so laid back. . . we chillin supa dupa cool. You can tell they all love what they do, but at the same time totally appreciate how good the people are around them especially JOHN MAYER!!!!
for all those confused about why the black drummer has a good feel... well im from South Africa (we have A LOT of black people) and they just have rhythm all of us dream of! its just natural to them. give a black guy a set of drums and yu can just jam along coz they have rythm... hope that clears things up :)
oh and holy shit John Mayer and his band are amazing!!! wet dream material i rate
@Aidy132 I don't think anyone was wondering. And I should say, as a black musician myself, drumming skills isn't a matter of hereditary--it's a matter of personality. We have to practice just like anyone else. With anyone, it's just a matter of being immersed in cultural influences and developing your personal tastes. If you've got mad love for it, you're going to have mad feeling for it. I know plenty of dudes who aren't black but got mad beat. Take my boy Darren King from Mutemath.
@UkzzFinest11 It has since come out that John was using pitch correction equipment through most of the show- which upset a lot of people. No way he could hit those whistles on "stop this train" so well.
@drizzler618 It's to be expected. He's not overdoing it or anything. There's no way that he could play Neon so perfectly and sing at the same time. It's even harder to play on guitar than it sounds.
@nicollas1011 There's a little guy in Minneapolis who has been the "new version" of Jimi Hendrix for the past 30yrs or so. Goes by the name of Prince. Ever heard of him?
Hello. My name is Colin Brooks Huntley. I am an acoustic rock/ blues guitar. My greatest influences include Gavin Degraw, John Mayer, The Fray, Jason Mraz, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and so many more. I have 3 professional videos up on my channel and i'm working on more. Please give my videos a chance!
To those who say this is completely auto-tuned: John actually "sings along with his guitar" in some songs... Meaning, watch him pick... He plays the same notes that he sings while he is singing, and solos when he's not singing.
He does it multiple songs when he plays live, namely: Gravity, Half of My Heart, Perfectly Lonely.. Etc. What a talent though.. I'd kill to play backup for him.
This man's pure musical talent and vocal gift can transport me to a completely different world, no matter what is going on in my day...and see him live!! Oh my god, nothing will EVER musically compare. Thank you JM, you have taken music to a whole new level....

I see why the girls wanna sleep with him. I know I do (i'm otherwise straight, by the way). Sure, there are other guitarists whose musicianship may be better, but he makes his instrument sing man, you can feel the emotion coming straight from an otherwise inanimate object. Love it.
SRV, would love John Mayer. Glad to hear the influence coming out of John's music. No one will ever be Stevie, but John's not trying, merely, sharing his love of Stevie, B.B., Waters, Clapton's music........, his way.
I really don't understand the problem people have with Mayer being strongly influenced by SRV. If anything, I personally believe that any SRV fan out there should be content with Mayer's work and how it will keep Stevie's style around. There's no wrong in learning from guitar elites and letting them influence you, in fact I find a lot a good in it. Please stop the hate and understand that he's simply appreciating stevie.
JOhn mayer has admitted the use of auto tune. But I've got a question, isnt auto tune an effect wich is applied after the recording? because i've seen footage of this show recorded by people on the crowd and it sounds the same (including that robotic "your future" at 2:46), when they should have the "non auto tuned" version.
@gavbag1234 Well I am not trying to bash JM he's actually an amazing artist but yeah it seems that every musicians use autotune nowadays. Just watch man he says it word for word in this vid. Just type: John Mayer - UStream - On Autotune
i am a HUGE mayer fan, but at 2:46 my worst fears are confirmed: he used pitch correction in this concert. also listen to the very very end of "why georgia" from this show. the last time he says "why, georgia, why" is a very obvious robo-tune. it is undeniable and i am surprised that mayer allowed for this to be released.
@ThunderRock41 John has openly said he's used Autotune on every album since Room For Squares. Who cares?! He's an incredible musician, especially live. Tweeking a few vocals from a concert where he sings 20+ songs? No. Big. Deal.
@TheTK3 Exactly, these songs are being released to the public, trying to sell millions of copies, and he's playing 3 concerts in one night basically. There going to need to do some tweaking to make his listeners more satisfied and attract others who have not heard much of him. I'd say its a perfectly plausible move.
@ThunderRock41 you are a fool. Of course he is going to use it to clean some stuff up. It's a live dvd. It's not like he was playing with it live. and he for sure doesnt use it for his live shows.. hes just fucking amazing lets leave it at that
Do love Jm's stuff. This one reminded me of SRV but with a flavour of Police. Next time I get weed this is going on. Plus Gravity. Plus Slow Dancing... well, at least the first couple hours will be JM.
@musymusic John have used auto-tune on every album he has made actually. Even this show is auto-tuned. you can clearly hear the pitch-correction at 2:47 he smiles cuz of it. Still John is an amazing artist but I think he would be better off without auto-tune
Hi i am a 12 year old BLUES guitar player. I would say that John Mayer and SRV are my biggest influences. I really want to share my music with other people to get feedback on how i can improve. I really don't want to do anything else when i'm older than play music, and i feel like if i have people that aren't close to me give me advise i can really get an opprotunity to improve and eventually get to be an artist. Please check out my channel and tell me what you think.
This should have way way way more views. That intro is pretty much the greatest thing ever. And that solo??? Are you kidding me??? Ugh. This song is pure sex, basically.
Ah the horns in this are so great. This song is just straight sexy in general, but the horns at 4:03 and then 5:20-5:45 are just so slick. They sound like they're straight off D'Angelo's "Voodoo". This is some artwork in motion people!
@Carevillepeasant Cuz the concert was played as three sets, Acoustic (First one or Intro) than John Mayer Trio ( 2nd) and that had Pino Palladino as well as Steve Jordan there, that's why those 2 guys come back to play with the complete band again after a few songs, while the whole band is there its the Band set, and there he plays his more popular songs, Belief, Gravity, Slow dancing, Georgia etc.
i listen to this just for the solo sometimes, but it feels like its missing something. so i go back to beginning to listen to the whole thing, and then the solo comes in...mind=blown.
mayer doesnt "try" to be SRV, there are definitely flashes of influence, but SRV plays A LOT more aggressively than mayer does. mayers music tends to have more of a low key - mellow sound
@mikejimmymitch He's got major influence from both Clapton and SRV. And who the hell can blame him? He's created an awesome sound all his own, with heavy influence from two of the greatest.
@mikejimmymitch you hit that on the button mayer is tooo smooth where as SRV was Smooth but raw and energetic as hell at the same time. Obviously though you can see the influence cuz without guys like SRV, Eric Clapton, amongst many others Mayer wouldn't be where he is today
@mikejimmymitch John always is constantly saying that SRV is one of those greats that influenced his playing and when he, and others, try to emulate him, they almost always fail, but produce a sound of their own that define them.
This performance shows John Mayer's skill on the fretboardand + with guitar effects. He's got a stage presence similar to Hendrix's, some guitarists couldn't EVEN dream of playin like him AND HE FUCKIN SINGS WHILE PLAYIN.
@marleyJR100 lol singing while playing isnt hard. He is a really good guitarist tho and he has good taste. But i've been looking into him using autotune, cuz someone pointed it out and when i listen i think i can hear it.
porn for girls.

@Carevillepeasant Cuz the concert was played as three sets, Acoustic (First one or Intro) than John Mayer Trio ( 2nd) and that had Pino Palladino as well as Steve Jordan there, that's why those 2 guys come back to play with the complete band again after a few songs, while the whole band is there its the Band set, and there he plays his more popular songs, Belief, Gravity, Slow dancing, Georgia etc.

@rachelnsmith13 my kid turned me onto john mayer music. great stuff, from a young guy, with an old soul.
I have CP. was fortunate enough to get to 1 of john's concerts, i don't think i've ever had a better night out.

i listen to this just for the solo sometimes, but it feels like its missing something. so i go back to beginning to listen to the whole thing, and then the solo comes in...mind=blown.

mayer doesnt "try" to be SRV, there are definitely flashes of influence, but SRV plays A LOT more aggressively than mayer does. mayers music tends to have more of a low key - mellow sound

@mikejimmymitch He's got major influence from both Clapton and SRV. And who the hell can blame him? He's created an awesome sound all his own, with heavy influence from two of the greatest.

@mikejimmymitch you hit that on the button mayer is tooo smooth where as SRV was Smooth but raw and energetic as hell at the same time. Obviously though you can see the influence cuz without guys like SRV, Eric Clapton, amongst many others Mayer wouldn't be where he is today

@mikejimmymitch John always is constantly saying that SRV is one of those greats that influenced his playing and when he, and others, try to emulate him, they almost always fail, but produce a sound of their own that define them.

This performance shows John Mayer's skill on the fretboardand + with guitar effects. He's got a stage presence similar to Hendrix's, some guitarists couldn't EVEN dream of playin like him AND HE FUCKIN SINGS WHILE PLAYIN.

@marleyJR100 lol singing while playing isnt hard. He is a really good guitarist tho and he has good taste. But i've been looking into him using autotune, cuz someone pointed it out and when i listen i think i can hear it.
