John Mayer messes up playing Sucker (LIDO DECK 2008)

[LNOL]

Can any artist really mess up his own song?

[JoeAlvEsp]

John Mayer made a mistake and everybody clapped and screamed... He's even good at missing!

[jonkarbon]

what if I say, that JM is in between pop and blues,,

[BurgerGrabber]

@jonkarbon that would be an accurate statement.

[jonkarbon]

i dont know what it means, but this shopld be kool

[Yekralc17]

I'm yet to see Mayer live, being in the UK, but I know the day I do my life would be complete.

But if he played even just a small section from either Sucker, Love Soon or Man on the Side, I would just die. On the spot. My heart would melt, and then I would die.

[rmed30]

@Yekralc17 : For the sake of this planet, I hope you get your wish.

[nivlas1]

Great stuff.

[TheSqueezze]

Love how he doesn't give a shit 0:54 - 1:00

[hamzie11]

wheres the mistake :/. i must be drunk myself to not have spotted it

[JDChicago]

He's basically a tool. And I cannot wait someday to blow him off the stage.

[atomicbobb]

@JDChicago you're a tool.

[123infomaniac]

@JDChicago I doubt if he'll let you blow him, either on or off the stage.  If you are better than John Mayer why are you not out on tour instead of posting on some remote you tube page?

[kharlos84]

My respects for this guy. I didn't like him first then I have to cover one song for a show and it took me more time than often to figured out the song properly. Very good guitar player excellent technique

[awalktoremember82]

good...the first time i have seen a great guitarist forgot his cords...which shows that afterall they are human....wuahahaha...funny..bu­t always like john mayer.!!!

[McFilipa30]

lenny /man on the side <3

[McFilipa30]

he's a god XD i love him so much, every new video i discover, i fall even more in love with him. JOHN MAYER ROCKS :D

[Hydramus89]

It's always funny when new fans think an old song is a new song :) It does make the old fans (like me) feel a bit more enlightened, doesnt it? lol

Wish I was on that cruise!

[theatomizer]

Lol, I think he wished he had a cold beer. xD

[sidegum]

hahahhaha, he's so drunk, but i love it.

[ramonesnicole22]

him messing up just shows that hes human and makes mistakes. i love himm <3

[xOutMichelle]

@ramonesnicole22 <3

[AnaMenendez05]

@ramonesnicole22 At what time dos he messed up? I dont get it.. hahaha

[ramonesnicole22]

@AnaMenendez05 at 0:56

[13SquaredTV]

@HOMEnHIGH haha sooo right!!

[HOMEnHIGH]

John Mayer never messes up...they wrote the song wrong...simple

[creativeassembly45]

lmao i was on this boat and i think he got in trouble the night b4 this for pissing off the balcony late at night... classic

[sarahj56222]

ah he is even sweeter when he is drunk - ha! And more sex appeal when he is loaded too :) I would drink with him anyday Very Sexy. I want to go on vacation - but wondering if there will be a MayerCraft 3? Now that is a cruise I would go on!!!

[theatomizer]

I thought John Mayer was a robot and he couldnt mess up!!!

[A7X514]

@theatomizer when hes drunk he become human again thats what it is

[ohelloeveryone]

what a fucking adorable guy! hes so talented and this just shows that hes a normal person too.

i'd get drunk with john mayer any day, thats for sure.

[leegodspeed]

oliverfranzon i too would go gay for this man

[oliverandm]

Mayer is so fuckin stoned - haven't you seen him and Steve xD Man those guys smoke nepalm or some shit... they are fuckin high in some of the small videos :P And you can see it on Mayers eyes!

[ohelloeveryone]

@oliverandm what videos are you talking about where he's stoned? and which steve?

[alanportfolio]

love sooooon!!! yesss

[oliverandm]

i have a feeling that he is drunk...

[ericpratt1112]

hes high man:P

bigggg stoner he is

its fannntastic

[Makinblack]

More like stoned.

[jmforlife83]

I love that he says he will mess up before he does... its genius!!!!!

[livelovelaugh202]

<3 <3 <3

[MCRAPPER91]

so Whose better JMayer or JFruscainte?

[fraud1980]

No comparison.. Fruscainte has written symphonies compared to John mayer jingles...

the only thing mayer excels at is playing some blues scales a la srv...

[heylookitsmatty]

Frusciante cant sing worth a lick. and all hes got is solos. no soul.. lol

[fraud1980]

listen to Albert King, John lee hooker and B B king if you want proper blues guitar... not mayer... Mayer is great by all means but not original..

[sickstringking]

I believe people are stupid to compare JM and JF......because you can't comepare them.....they play different styles....JM can kick anyones ass at acoustic styles and can rip at electric gtr.....JF is all about rediculous licks....and and lyrical guitar stylings......plus they both play different genres

[graffitio1992]

everything is more fun intoxicated lol :P

mayer is god!

[GoLuckyOops]

John Mayer is so good live

[OliverFranzon]

i would go gay for this guy !

[msfrankie]

o my

[ocho88loco]

sounds like its already too late for you

[MikeysFan]

Funny, I've heard other guys say that, too! lol

[manusadomizer]

@OliverFranzon what the fuck !?!? :|:| fucking gay!

[y78345]

lol

naked john

[thiagorabello]

even better then the new songs, not that they're bad, it's just this is more.... pure i don't know how to explain, it takes more felling to like the old songs!

[ruipsoa]

great improvising song :P

[ams914]

wtf is up with his shoulder? scars?

[kkick]

I think they're tattoos..covered up by sun burn or something.. lol

[baygrl518]

it's a tattoo. he has an entire sleeve on his left arm too.

[stupidfaceweirdo]

he doesnt have the sleeve yet in this video. it comes later

[drummerboy8153]

Yea there is a Mayer Craft Carrier 2 towards the end of March. I'm pretty bummed I couldn't get the money to go.

[lotristhebest]

how much was it?

[davidos90]

"Environmently friendly carrier"

[guitarskater11]

on this thing did you get to like hangout with him and stuff or was it more just he has a concert 4 days in a row and they just happened to be at the same place so you got to see them?

[20machinm]

yeah 'Mayercraft Carrier' is the event, there's another one this year I think... Mayercraft Carrier 2...?

[dsrecs]

How did people get tickets to this mayor cruise did you have to win them?

[Levidamanguitar]

You can just buy them like anything else

[vallabee]

wow he's amazing, even drunk.

i love these songs..

[heysogo]

haha he's so wasted

[thedondadah]

Well, he wasn't smashed, but he was definitely blush. I'll take him either way. Talented men are so sexy.

[JoanaMRt]

you read my mind

[Skarific088]

@heysogo And it was still really good. darn you john mayer haha

[supern00b]

wasnt he wasted

[tefybelle19]

I LOVE UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

[utoobjoe]

Love Soon & Sucker = Absolute music masterclass

[thedondadah]

Legend in the making

[aseriousoffender]

already one...

[dynamitekydd]

his older songs are great, but it seems like he's trying to break away from them a bit. still amazing

[DJFoltzy626]

love soon and sucker are amaxing songs and I wish he would play them more... even when he did mess up, he still sounded great and he is still the best! Playing guitar drunk is probably pretty hard to do and Jmay still rocks it out

[dannyknapp]

I have no idea how this song goes. gets applause. wow, it must be nice to be famous ! haha.

[hotdawg471]

lol.. he messed it up but who cares!

[rawkicks89]

Wow wish I was there Sucker and Love Soon in that order were the first songs I heard that got me into John Mayer and then they were the first ones I learnt to play on guitar!!

[DBZO12]

Yea, i went to the marysville concert tonight and he busted out with man on the side and NOBODY in the crowd knew it, but is was the best part of the concert if u ask me!!!

[gavinthesavage]

uh burning down the house and Mercy in my opinion...

[damaband41]

how often does he play this song in concert? Isn't it pretty rare, which explains why he forgot the lyrics (although I'm sure drinking didn't jog his memory)

[EggaChoppaDooey]

drinking def. didn't jog it lol...but what's up with his lisp??

[damaband41]

where at specifically? Isn't that the way he always sings?

[junckzproductions]

Drinking dos give you slurred speech sometimes...

[bbonta]

dude. i love john mayer dont get me wrong.

like

i love him to death

but he messes up SOOOO much in this video.

its really bad.

LOL

still love him to death.

[mikefalzone]

god i miss me some love soon

[bassplayinman87]

DUDE! put your arm down!

[Faure45]

thanks for sharing! :)

[CalebMarks]

Man on the side is my favorite song!!!!!!

[1BrknHrtdRomeo]

did any of you guys actually got to talk to him during the cruise?

it would be cool if he could teach me a thing or two on the guitar xD

[tike0rz]

I was there! It was hot, sunny, but this concert kicked ass! The impromptu was the best part, undoubtedly.

[superface5853]

i love seeing john like this, so lay back, he should get blotto more often if he's like this.

[loquaciousthe3RD]

I LOVE SUCKER! :D

[15akn]

omg i love john mayer...been to two of his concerts and a third coming up this summer!!!!

[incncvbl]

Some of us in the crowd did respond! You are so right this was one of the most memorable parts of the cruise. I am a Mayer newbie and have since gone back to learn all these cool clever songs. The man's a genius...

[chella83]

Wow, I can't believe he brought out my favourite song after aall these years! Heres hoping love soon will make an appearance at the TO show this summer <3

[PinkAndGreenTogether]

DAMN he is good looking....

[autofied]

jm live and drunk is better than jm in the studio and sober any day of the week

[thedondadah]

ditto!

[misssupreme]

I love that I know some of his songs (his older ones) better then he does, haha. He should've just let the crowd take over :)

[brihayden]

man...can we have just a moment of silence, for his clever words and his shirtless self.

[jmil6]

amen.

[HollBeth]

I'm a JM version as far as live performances, so I want to know about "Sucker." Is it something he has ONLY done live? I have never seen reference to it on any recordings, though I have found lyrics for it. Anyone know? He's so magical...

[hashdribble]

"Sucker" isn't on an album, but you might be able to find a recording of it on Limewire or something

[HollBeth]

Thanks, I'll keep looking. And meant to say "JM virgin as far as live performances" (never seen him in concert - yet). I just see a lot of stuff on lyrics pages for him that aren't recorded and guess he must be singing them live only.

[Aardvarked88]

google for "My stupid mouth forums", they regularly post live jm sets and hard to find songs.

[Topazno]

John performed Sucker during the early days when he played at Eddie's Attic in Georgia. You can only find the song from live recordings of his older gigs. He hasn't played some of the songs in this medley for years. Thanks for the vid. I was there but had a crappy view so it is great to see it closer. Best five minutes for sure!

[angeldee3]

i really love how drunk john is. and damn hes good looking without a shirt.

[ibelieveinmiracles2]

Thanks so much for posting this...what memories! This really was a treasure!

[heckyes2727]

he is so drunk lol

[Hesterswabedissen]

Love it!!!! (L)
