I think it's funny how he first says showing off your skills is not the most important thing, and in almost the same sentence he says that it (waiting on the world to change, part 5) was not the best performance he ever gave
This is so very true, there has to be some living time, your own experiences to feed the songs.
If you are 18 and expect to write a genuine rendering of the heart maybe you should give it some time and concentrate on the craft-after a while you will have something authentic to give.
I've wanted to go to Berklee since I was sixteen. Unfortunately, I couldn't afford it and always felt I was never good enough to be a student there. I just turned 21 last week and next year on Feb 14 2012. I will audition for this school for the first time.
Its people like John Mayer who inspire me to say "Its time to try for something that seems unreachable".
Watching this clinic gives me a whole new respect for John Mayer. Oh! If you listen to the way he describes certain things throughout the clinic, he TOTALLY has synesthesia.
@Hucho He's talking about how when you look deep inside yourself for inspiration. He's saying how your inside is saying to your outside to "get down here" to the inside :)
Thums up if your name is Kristen...
