    Little did 'they' know. How big John was going to turn out. *And for the hosts, they are now unemployed.*
    An awesome performance of this song from John's 'Heavier Things' album. 👍👍 🎸🎸
    Nothing 'junior' about Mayer! 😉

  • @alexcorll90
    @alexcorll90 3 года назад +64

    Still one of my favorite performances by him. I think he's actually a better acoustic player than electric possibly, not too many people play acoustic with this level of complexity. Definitely inspired me as a player to use the whole neck.
    I can't really think of anyone else that came after him who plays like this. Dave Matthews sort of preceded him, though they're very different artists overall. John is in some ways the last singer songwriter guitarist to really make it big.

  • @incognitojoe1087
    @incognitojoe1087 2 года назад +33

    The sound he gets with just himself, his acoustic, and a bassist (a hell of a bassist at that) is just incredible. Goes to show... it doesn't take much when you're the real deal.

    He really looked hurt when they started jabbing back at him. I really couldn't hear what John said but he normally has a pretty good sense of humor so it couldn't have been anything too "harsh" or "off-color." Don't really think he deserved to be roasted like they did to him.

    Bcuz he is a multi grammy award winner and wildy popular - not to mention insanely talented. He knows his way around a 6-strings - that for sure. I am not a big JM fan, but how is these auz-holes don't know him.
