John Mayer - Sweet Child O' Mine - July 30, 2008

Unfortunately I started recording this song too late to catch his dancing like Axle Rose. He sang this to one of his guys whose birthday it was. I love his sense of humor. Starts out sideways, then I realize I should turn the camera.

JM's not being serious here. He was just chilling out and having a bit of fun on-stage. Trust me, if you saw him when he's serious, you wouldn't be hating. This is the man who covers Hendrix like a boss, got Clapton's respect (and became so close to Clapton that he's merited the nickname "Slowhand Jr."), and got mad respect from his hero Buddy Guy--this was just done all just in fun here with the audience. I mean, can't you tell he's purposely mimicking Axl Rose's mannerisms? JM's humorous.

@PeteManic uhhh Les Paul.

[deejack1414]

actually it's for his sound engineer Chad Franscoviak. You can hear him say "Chad's got eyes of the bluest skies..." and I think at one point he even sings "Sweet Chad of Mine".

@PreppersTactics I think that most of the early Zep stuff was recorded on a tele rather than a strat though I might be wrong...

[PreppersTactics]

@PeteManic you know that most of led zepplin was recorded on a strat

@PeteManic Nice comment ! hahaha..... Can't believe he didn't throw down on Slash's most famous solo. I figured the only reason he did the cover was to show he could play the solo. Cuz he is kind of a show-off on guitar.

Sweet Child on a Strat? Jesus wept.
