Видеоклипы
Appreciate cameraman for zooming in on the shoes
The amount of skill on this stage is ridiculous
Ridiculously, incredibly, gooooooooood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so true!!!
Seems a little awkward to me. Metzger seems ...
I love seeing how happy JM is playing this. This is him. The dead released his true self
So true
Yes, true.
WORD and he is most excellent at it
For as big as John Mayer is a star I have seen him jam more times with local bands more times than I can count. Awesome.
dude just loves playing guitar lol
I hope you understand that this band is far from a local band. More of an all-star lineup… Mayer is kinda the least technically proficient dude on stage lol
@timpelser1 you obviously don’t know this band or much about Grateful Dead music. John is amazing but he is a padawan next to the Jedi on stage with him in this clip.
So much space in the music for the amount of people on stage. True professionals.
LAZY - You're the man for getting this dude. Love it!
Love your vids Michael!
thanks Mike! glad u dig it and keep up the great work!
You should do a react video to this. It's INCREDIBLE
A goat video without a doubt
Michael, I don’t even play guitar but love watching your videos. You’ve inspired me to try and learn to play. Keep doing your thing my man.
PS loved the Ghost Prague vid 🐟🤙🏻
Mayer has an awesome talent,& his dream was always to play with the Dead, "Without love & a dream it'll never come true" So glad his did,& he gets to share his awesome skills with the Deadhead family. The amount of talent on this stage is incredible,thank you for sharing. My Moms favorite song ❤
When JM leaves the snark tuner on the headstock the entire time
Hayden Gunson I like your name
can't see how peeps dismiss and take Mayer lightly, he's a serious and heavy hitter
The next generation keeper of The Dead, hope it continues for another 50!
At this point in his career, he's kinda proved himself. Most people i know that listen to him know how good he is.
And also now he doesn't have that 2007/2010 whatever f*ckboi image, dude's got respect.
are you refering to the Deads people as not very accepting with Mayer or just people in general?
@@beachmasterX people in general
Great stuff, love it, super playing, love the changes in tempo, such a good song too......lovely that Dead tunes have a life of their own...
If I'm ever lost or stranded in the deep woods, I hope I have a John Mayer solo to get a fire started. I'm feeling warm already, time to roast the marshmallows and make S'mores.
Man this absolutely SLAPS.
This song is hypnotic
cant get enough of this version.. utterly amazing
It makes me so happy to see John just loving these songs. 20 YEARS AGO WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT!!!??
Man that drummer marched them threw that song amazing how they all got threw that song that's being a professional I even saw Mayer communicating to the singer wow. Wow John ended with a bang. To many wow moments or not enough.
Sounds amazing, I'll need to listen to this a couple 100 times now
My 12 year old is having to listen to this while playing Minecraft as well
Mine too and endless Phish songs!
Thats just solid parenting
Serves him right
Meanwhile I'm 20 and choosing to listen to this while I play minecraft
I love that the young peeps love this music!!!!!! It makes my heart sore with LOVE!! and boy do we need more of that today!!!! Peace n Love to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The guy on the keys is on fire
Definitely one of the greatest tunes ever
I made the mistake of choosing Tedeschi Trucks Band at the Beacon over JRAD this night after going to the 10/12/17 JRAD show the previous night. There were Mayer rumors on the 12th and I figured it was BS.
I was lucky enough to get a Warren Haynes surprise appearance at TTB, which was awesome. But it didn't compare to this, which is better on RUclips than what I saw in person at the TTB show that night.
The best part of this Althea (which is Mayer's favorite Dead song) is that Metzger and him and trading equally great solos. Mayer isn't the best guitarist on the stage during this song. Him and Metzger and equals. And neither of them are playing arrogantly. They're letting each other switch off taking lead. It's a beautiful thing.
pretty nice JRAD/TTB back 2 back, love TTB and Warren but yeah, bummer man.
This is one of those versions that really highlights how well the bass really holds this song together.
The drums were certainly imaginative and had good moments, piano was good too.
John is no fuckin slouch either, I feel like his early career may have turned off the very people he is try to appeal to, to him. I think hes been great at introducing a new generation that wouldnt have listened without his involvement. His style gels with D&C perfectly, even if his voice doesnt seem like the best fit sometimes.
I love the look dave and scott give john when he drops it back into the main groove - a little after the 16 minute mark. nice breakdown and heavy drop back in. great vid, of a great band! LONG LIVE THE DEAD!
Great moment! it was the perfect time to drop back into it too!
John took them in limbo, for awhile, Russo wondering what's next(a lesson from Bob to John to Joe), a few notes of Althea, band catches it, ends it great. That was old school Dead style preview from John? Well done! Love the non verbal communication! Timeless tunes!
ultimate15clb what a joke, JM comes up on my stage & has more volume than the lead guitarist, wire snips to his cord. Their guitarist was doing fine, his solo was well done. And they smashed his poor hands in my dream.
@@Notcorncowsorchickens heaven forbid John Mayer challenges these great guitarists
allansaline this video is taken from a camera literally a few feet away from mayers amp. Of course he will sound much louder
guitar into a tube screamer powered by a battery into his amp, no extreme pedals just tone from his fingers man
Wow John Mayer loves this misic
john mayer is this music
@Garrett Welch As in he bleeds feel through his playing when playing dead material. He embodies it. It flows through him. Not to even to mention being the deads current guitarist, well.. yeah, I'd say he is it! Apologies if that was a tricky sentence for ya but I really didn't think this amount of explaining was needed but you're right, this is youtube and there are obviously those ignorant people posting their ignorant comments(;
@Garrett Welch Oh don't get me wrong, I much prefer Jerry!! But my point is that Mayer certainly does a better job than most when it comes to his style. In an interview Mayer said whenever he's playing Jerry's material, he's constantly asking himself "is this cool Jerry? is this close to what you would do in this situation?" and I respect that especially having played guitar for over a decade now, learning the acrobatic playing style of Jerry. I'm just boggled because it's not often you see a musician with such fluid versatility as Mayer has.. And ya know what, at the end of every debate, it always seems both sides agree with eachother all along, just miscommunication and being quick to shut the other down makes it impossible to truly understand their side. Not being bashful, I just want things to be seen for what they are. Anyways, thanks for your time if you've made it this far. Peace!
This is the song that turned Mayer onto the Dead! When he was at a pool party listening to Pandora, he had to stop everything and go see who this awesome band was! Before that he had very little knowledge of the Dead! Thanks to Don Was ,he introduced Bob Weir and Mayer ,the rest is history!
Mayer doesn't try to replicate Jerry, he channels Jerry - like he's the portal between us and Jerry. He's freaken fantastic
Best version of althea i have ever heard. Awesome!
George Costanzo Dead and co really nail it also.
Are you guys for real no could ever play this better than Jerry no matter how many times they try no disrespect to any one because I love this
Garrett Welch I’ve seen the original Dead 20 times and was lucky to see a few Altheas but they never blew me away. However, I really think Mayer took the solo to a new level.
Garrett Welch No. I saw them from 85-95. Wished I’d been able to see them in the 70’s. Thing is, Althea was always a “meh” song for me as Dead tunes go - until I saw Dead and Co blaze one into the Stratosphere. But I’ll check out the one you suggest.
Garrett Welch Not saying better - but I definitely like some songs better the way he plays them - longer more soaring solos. Others were better when Jerry did - but I never saw them in 77’ during the arguably best tour they had and I’ll agree that the scarlet-fires then we’re WAY better than those I saw in the late 80’s. And yes, I’ve loved many of the wall of sound shows I’ve seen on RUclips or heard. But again, Jerry was in his prime then.
This is such a BEAST. I keep coming back to it. Unreal.
Thanks for sharing... caught this on the live stream. Love the jam going into Althea.
This is my first time seeing and hearing them. Love it. The jamming is amazing. Thanx for posting this.
Killer footage you rock!
love it when homie Russo jabs at homie Mayer’s shoes lolololl
Hey man. Gotta take care of yo feets!
Joe always pokes fun at Mayer when he comes out for a guest appearance
10:51 that groove change and Metzger following right along is pretty fucking good. Don't let Mayer's brilliant fucking solo (really really enjoying how he built his solo up to this fucking fire right at 13:19) distract you from Metzger's - he's still very much up there and amazing!
Expert level.
Eh..
Great job filming sounds like mixing board feed. thanks.
Excellent. Great audio quality, great video quality and great music. Thank you!
Absolutely mind-blowing. Amazing.
Wow!!!!!! With crazy fingers Johnny added to the mix what a magical night thanks for posting this as I couldn't make the show rather have me goosebumps
WOWW, EXCELLENT - Love it listen to the keyboard,
I thinks it’s The Best Althea I’ve ever heard, it’s a badsass Jam
🤘🏻 🤘🏻 🤘🏻 🤘🏻 🤘🏻
B R A V O 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼Damn their getting down
Baddass video. I’m sharing this and saving it on my playlists i gotta
play this one, and often!
Thx for posting it. I greatly appreciate it. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤍🫶🏻
That Mayer deconstruction was insane. Those guys are just killin' it with my fave Dead song. Thanks much.
Never in the 90’s did I think I would trust John Mayer after being present to Garcia…. Now I trust the musicians who play. I miss Jerry and I let John allow me to enjoy the sound I search for.
Just found this......love these guys!
Thanks for posting dude! Coudn't make this weekend as I was a mile high
Mayer loves playing, he always gets in his zone "Go Johnny Go,Go, Go Johnny Be Good" 🎶
2:23 John takes a clip-on tuner out of his pocket and tunes his guitar like a normal non-famous person
LOL. Love it
You'd think he'd tune up BEFORE taking the stage. On the other hand, this has got to be the BEST HD resolution video I've ever seen on youtube. Outstanding!!!
@@simonsbuddy1806 fresh strings pull out of tune pretty easily
i saw a video once of Chris Martin from Coldplay hand his guitar over to a tech for it to be tuned (it was a little acoustic set thing) and ive truly never looked at him the same. just do it yourself!? takes 1 second. does he not know how to!?? LOL
A+ internet observation/comment
this was sick...whoever took this video...I was standing right there next to you at the Bowl...love love love seeing this again.
wow this sounds amazing, great jamming, vocals, great visual quality. want to go to a dead-related show soo bad now
These guys are incredible. Saw them in Madison this past Sunday. 1st set, 1:15 long (I think), didn't stop once. Melting song into song into song. Friggin' amazing.
My god, John Mayer is great
also love how Tommy offer vox up and Mayer says, “no thanks! im good...”
theweniscoqui hahaha I thought that’s what was going on.
This audience was blessed
I see a bunch of humans on stage who love music. Nothing more. Family
Scott’s tone is outstanding.
Great stuff.
Excellent.
I love this.
Goose Bumps @ 3:15
Goose Bumps @ 16:00... and that Russo > Mayer "yeah that was cool" smile right after
I love this.
Mayer is just in another league entirely (soul wise) though I love joe Russo, but is awesome to see them push him to a higher intensity then is common in dead and co. Just killing it
I saw those guys at the Mardi gras Show in New Orleans, last week !And got the chance to take my flight back to NYC right next to the Bass player :Dave Dreiwitz and he is a handsome bass player!
Straight fire!!!!
This song was a great ride!!
No offense to Weir but it’s so nice seeing JM play with people that can keep up with him
You ain’t lyin
Stupid statement.
Offense to weir cause he sucks
@@dylanbob3909why are you watching this vid then 😂
@@brotherdarkness6118 cause he’s not in it?? 😂
John murdering this ! WOW ❤️
amazing
One of the great Altheas!
Never thought i would say this but John is the best man for the job. Way to go JM
Keyboards at 9:14 amazing touch!
love how theyre not in any hurry...
get the groove going first...
abslutely love this band...
Stumbled upon this & WOW! I only saw the Dead 4 times (2 nites Chicago & 2 nites Vegas, summer of ‘93? or ‘94?) Funny stuff happened. Lego stadium/people...Dead skeleton logo imprinted the back of my brain...that’s all....😂😎 normal things...
That look on john mayer face 15:39 says it all . Great lick
I would like to emphasize my thumbs up on this one. Play Althea For Me!
It's cool to see someone just get up on stage, tune in to the jam and start playing. Adjusts along the way but a true professional
lmao all the time changes! love it! John seems to play better here than I have seen on D&C videos, idk whats the deal
RickBaconsAdventures I think the deal is you haven't been to enough Dead and Company shows! ⚡
Because BOBBY won't let him do his thing. Bob thinks he's the show. Absolutely wrong. Bob should hang it up and go pull his pud in a dark corner. He's only good for vocals. Give him a stool and tell him to STFU
The keyboard player is really good
Love when he went to the piano, and especially the ending "trickles" into the vocal line. And he jumped right in! Most Grateful Dead keyboard players waited for their place(shy?), and would come in late, like, can I play now? lol. He doesn't hesitate! Impressive performance! And Joe looking at John before opening line with "you?", John gives quick head shake, nah, it's you! Your band!", lol. No real words between them, but quick communication! And John takes them in to limbo, almost stopping the song. A transition coming? Now what? A lesson he learned from Dead and Company, passed on. Russo's looking at John like "where we going"(fun/scary as a band, but what the Dead loved and lived for!), and then with a few notes from John, they're prepared, and end it nicely! Interaction lesson from Bob to John to Russo. If only Jerry could have been there, after John's solo, for some real gunslinging playing, with a few "lessons" thrown in! Keep it going! It's all about the songs, the music! Timeless! Never expected much after Jerry passed away. 50th anniversary show w/Trey playing was painful to listen to, for me. Trey played terrible! A few months later ,and Dead and Company with WHO? JOHN MAYER? That pop star, heartbreaker? And I was shocked by his excellent playing and knowledge of Jerry's style. Still strange, lol, but he's the man now! Dead forever! Longer than my comment, lol!
@@timturk1899 Agree 100%. Forever grateful!
marcooooooooooo
His Name is Marco Benevento. Look up his solo stuff it's so fun
the goodest
Mind meld achieved
Oh man they tore the F out of this one!! 😎🔥🔥🔥
Instant smile
LOONIE GUY sayin Hello brother. hope you are doin well and keeping safe... best wishes for 2021 and beyond. hope to see ya sooner than later ✌🏼☮
Mayer knew he had to step it up after Eric Bogosian's solo
Jfc, criminal that have an ad in the middle of this beautiful Jam
this guys,changing time signatures and not missing a beat
I like the way you play the bass and the faces you make. Said in the voice of Mr. Rogers.
you say wimbley wambley wombley….
@@curtbayer8144 excellent!
THAT WAS SO RAD!!! Holy shit I love the what John Mayer did the the dead
Look at the Solo part. The 2 guitarists just standing there and listening to each other’s solo
John has the look like, Damn I should be playing with these guys instead because they really fckn jam!
13:18 - wow.. Scott Metzger's reaction says it all.
can't tell if appreciative or slightly butthurt.
Me personally, definitely appreciative. I'm thinking Metzger was in a state of amazement/bewilderment. To me, this is Mayer's best solo take on Althea. As soon as Tom gave him the signal at 12:00, it was on.
It's really the first chance he's had to take on an uptempo version. I like bobby's "vision" of the band with Jeff/John/Oteil/(probably russo)/ .... oh god, who do we find to be the new bobby? Need to have a booming voice and be able to fill that weird guitar role.
^YES! Couldn't agree more with everything you said. A solo Russo would take over the dual drum role perfectly. Probably the only drummer alive that could actually fill both roles. Looks like we have a lot to look forward to
Also, both Mayer and Oteil have shown a huge desire to learn the music and keep it fresh and evolving. I can't wait to see what they bring this fall tour, but as much as i'm loving D&C, age is going to remain a constraining factor...though after blossom>2-night wrigley, they really really impressed me. IDK any other band with members in their 70's still banging out 3-hour shows that are good (and not completely scripted) from start to finish.....
Plus the drums/space stuff has really brought a lot of younger kids into the fold. They love all the "jamtronica" and that's fine/great/dandy. Experimental is what all the other incarnations of GD lacked.
That lick John does at 3:24. Good lord
wow these guys are good.
Tommy at 11:58 is perfection. The point, the fist, and John brings the response.
no fancy gear needed, all pure skill
....the hero of this clip is that SNARK staying attached to Johnny's headstock....😂😂😂
thX
Shredding
7:00 Marco Benevento everybody. Enjoy
Jerome Garcia All attention would have been on his performance had it not been for the Mayer name recognition. And that is by no means a slight toward Mayer because he straight slayed but holy fuck man was Marco on point.
I was there this night! My buddy was like, "yeah people are saying Mayer is here tonight," I was like "oh alright sure..." Then, second set I'm 20 feet from him playing with the boys. Damn.
Don't get much better than that!!
love the drummer "slow down" at .55-ish. "I got exited there...." he says. HA-HA....done that before behind the kit. My excitement pushin the tempo a bit....
Mayer simply rules....don't hate just embrace...smooth as AF
I want a John Mayer Bobble head , too!!
I've come around to JRAD Jerry
Some one get a whole Pail of water just to cool him down!!! Mayer is on fire🔥🔥🔥
So Bitchin!!!!!!
John does an aaaaaaamazing Althea
this peformance is sponsored by Fender Amplification!!!!! :)
And Paul Reed Smith guitars!
11:58 for John's solo
hats off to the rhythm section on this....
