Well drh plays rhythm for Mayer pretty much any other time so that’s not really a good way of measurement. Drh is a great player and does what he does really well, but JM is on another level
@@agungwayne3090 damn right they're all uniquely amazing players, Sharky especially, John is the best blues player there but Sharky is on some crazy shit
@@davidlub8982 he had this huge cocky douchebag & playboy image on the 2000s, but had matured ever since, dude now is like that weird but zen & cool uncle on family gatherings (in a good way)
John has always been a generous player but Dead and Co really taught him how to lay back and be a part of a unit. You can see the progression from star to band member just by going through Dead and Co tours
So my goal is to edit one of these videos and insert into the small screen my terrible ass playing terribly, and have this dude reacting like it’s amazing
"put your hands together, cmon stomp your feet" is a P-funk chant from the 1975 track "good to your earhole." I love when bands like this show you a snippet of a deep influence only few would recognize. great video man thanks!
Dude, nothing sounds like a 335 on Earth.. did they stop making those when Gibson went down? If there was ever a guitar to never stop making in the Gibson lineup it is this one. I don't even bother looking at them because I'd never do it justice.. you better be a badass if you walk out with that big hollow fucker... Oh and you might want to invest in a good sound man if you're planning on getting too loud..
@@prkeene yeah that would be a tragic event if I ever knew one. On a semi-unrelated topic though.. went into my first guitar center about 18 years ago. They had the Sam Bush signature series f5 mandolin.. the edges of the frets were so ragged I thought I was going to need a tetnis shot when I left.. and it was on sale for like $7,999 ONLY! Since then I have owned a Gibson f9 which is bare bones craftsmanship with none of the bells and whistles and it was easily the winner of the two instruments as far as play and sound goes. I just wanted to tell that story because it happened in Memphis and it almost turned me off to their whole line of 'new' instruments.. oh yeah the f9 was a steal at $2500 cash money.
That drummer is so tuned in it’s sick! I suck at music but have some rhythm, so I’ve played drums, but that guy is a professor to my kindergarten skill level. Incredible, and he’s not even a feature player in this performance.
I love Everything about this.... everyone on that stage has earned their way into a humble, collaborative, highly skilled and generous class of magnificent players and humans. As a guitar player this gives me chills, as a music lover the horns, flawless band leading, harmonies, groove and soul makes me shed a tear, as a long time musician, seeing Mayer being a real band member makes me proud, as an improviser the next level keyboard/vocal solo busts me open, as a man.... who the hell is the petite redhead with the amazing voice and attitude?!
I saw John Mayer live a few years back. I would suggest that he is an amazing band member, period. He passed the ball to everyone in his band throughout the course of the evening. Every member of his band was an absolute monster, and could have led their own group. So, maybe I could say something like: he is a very gracious band leader for his solo stuff. In any case, for someone who is or was a self-identified ego-addict, I think that he has done an amazing job of tempering that when it comes to collaborating with other musicians. I love your videos, Michael. I am working through your GIT Masterclass on Udemy and then I plan on joining your site at GuitarGate. You are a very gifted instructor and your passion for music and the guitar is infectious. Thank you for sharing your light.
Can you just leave all that "ego" crap. You literally sounded like a mad non musician. I dont care what he said 13 years ago. That doesnt define what he is today, and if you think it does , you are not the one that would actually make the comments any worth using. And i dont think if i give a f' about the personality of a musician , i just care about music.
@@mattgee4867 yes i am mad. Cause prople say stuff which is filled with ignorance for eg this comment. Anyways i now have learnt to not care about what these shiholes say.
Markus Bruun I do and I don’t think this is John’s greatest playing to the extreme excitement that Michael is showing. It’s theory may be exciting to him but there’s zero interest in melody.
Your discussion of the band "getting" what John was doing after the 23 minute mark is what Duane Allman And Dickey Betts did every night. They'd jam on songs they knew and when one of them wanted to go somewhere new, the whole band went right with him. When they had someone sit in with them, the band acted as if the new guy had always been with them. It's a skill the best develop from endless playing and jamming. Most of us have work lives, home lives and personal lives...then guitar/music. For those people, the music is first. Makes all the difference.
Each one on stage is unique and stand out as musicians but Mayer's solo was so freaking sick. I had tears rolling down my face the first time I heard and watched this. You don't know why or what I was feeling, Im SO sorry for you.. Im so glad and lucky "The Blues" will live on long after im gone.
The best piece of music I ever discovered because of you. Since the first time I watched this video, I've listened to the original one at lease 400 times. So fucking good.
I share your enthusiasm dude, one of the best performances captured on vid I’ve ever seen, everything is just pure joy, so glad I’m not alone in thinking this. I posted this clip on a UK guitar forum and it got one comment - man I need to leave that forum.
Wow, that is one tight group. That is what you get when you put together a group of people that are playing because they love music and not focused on their own ego, fame, or money. They hear the whole groove and not just listening to their own self. You can see how they are all connected to making music and not showing off. Mayer solo was not only just killer by itself, but the way all the others were perfectly involved in the groove made it extremely rare. The ending of Mayer’s solo was mind blowing. The first song I remember ever noticing a band being perfectly synced was the Allman Bros Whipping Post. I get more impressed every time I see/hear Mayer play. I can see that he is connected to the music like you pointed out SRV was it you reaction to his.
I'm SO happy you did a video for this. I don't have many friends I get to really enjoy dissecting this with in this way without feeling like my usual John Mayer guitar nerd fan freak. Thanks dude!
This is half of Mayer's touring band he had last year, only mainly missing Pino Palladino on bass & Aaron Sterling on drums. The grooves they concocted were out of this world...
Nathan Sturgess yes lol that’s true people who cannot actually paint well, will not understand full to what the artist is trying to convey, thus giving off an affect of most common people not Understanding a particular beauty in an artwork
What's great about this is it's basically a combination of a bunch of bands that JM has toured with, but with DRH leading it instead of John. Incredibly cool.
It's so cool to have someone point out some of the theory and understanding. I can say I was born with music in me and feel everything these guys are doing but I cannot contextualize it like you. It's a feeling I've had since childhood to hear the music, the notes and the band. I play too but am just after 20 years starting to learn more theory. Love what you are doing! I could see hanging out at a club and listening to a band and just high fiving each other all night as we watch.
@@federicogatto2635 yeah he did and continues to, I couldn't tell you what year he started but as far as I know he's the most recent lead guitarist since Robbie. Sharky and David ryan make a killer duo
Mayer is just absolutely incredible and can adapt to whatever situation and band he is thrown into.I went to see dead & company last year and I couldn't see the stage as I was walking up from the ticket booth, just listening to them play before even seeing him and them on stage, he had some of the Jerry stuff down SO good. It really did sound like I was going to a grateful Dead show. I've seen Jerry five times, ratdog, Phil and Friends,etc... I know my "Dead".... They were so good I went home and subscribed to "nuggs"just so I could download a copy of the show I was at & burn it to a CD so I can listen to it in my old car.
Michael, I have to tell you, man. I learn so much from watching these and your passion for music is UNPARALLELED. Been playing a LONG time and you are inspiring brother. Thanks for these, 100 k soon you deserve it.
I've seen this one and it's a "feeel gooood" show 😁 I like how John stands in the back and lets the musicians and singers do their thing, not trying to steal the spotlight or anything.. just enjoying good music 🤘🙌
Damn - as if I didn’t have enough to thank you for, you show me this! We’ve been in lockdown for over 200 days of the last 18 months here in Melbourne, and the one thing I’ve missed more than anything was going to see live music. This clip just took me right back to my live gig happy place! And what an epic lineup! Thanks MP
Epic jam and so much fun watching you break down this jaw dropping display of “in the pocket “ playing! Just subtle and ferocious at the same time...Thank you
At this point in my life the number one thing I want from my band members is... every person playing to the music. Each person doing the best they can to make the "whole" as great as it can be. That's why I love groove music so much and don't really have time for anything elso. This band is a prime example of that, I love it
Enjoyed watching your reaction and insight. Been grooving on this for weeks. Incredible group that just captured lightning in a bottle with a near-perfect groove.
I figured out its a no pick bend, he just slides into it... Sounds so ghosted! And the licks after, he just knows how to play softly and use that dynamic range for impact so well.
That video was absolutely incredible. Thank you for breaking it down and showing us what is going on. I really think all musicians want to aspire to be that good. What happened here takes hours and hours of playing together and also a humbleness to know your place. They are all stars in my book and i love John Mayer a ton but David Ryan Harris and Isaiah Sharkey are playing amazing stuff here. Cool, different, and interesting. What a groove! Thanks so much for sharing....this made my day!
He’s backed John Mayer for a while. I remember seeing him live with John Mayer. You can see him live with John on where the light is concert. It’s very nice to see John backing him. It’s awesome to see that.
John actually found David’s music when John was just starting out. It’s a great story...DRH has done some interviews about it. They’ve been buds for 20 years.
Michael's reaction to this was the same as mine the first time I heard it. I have watched and listened to this a dozen times and it never gets old. Isaiah is an absolute freak!
The album “Lightyears” by David Ryan Harris is an absolutely top-notch experience all the way through. Everybody that likes this band and groove would love the album. Do yourselves a favor and check it out.
@Guitargate I loved watching this video! Nice to see how exited you are! I also liked the explanation of the things the're doing in the video! Great job man! Love it!🙂🙌🏼
You hear David Ryan Harris say, "This is the last Train, the last Train Home" then Johns ears prick up with that being the name of his single this year a year and a bit later. Maybe it was a tip of the hat from David because he had already heard it way back then or John got the idea in that moment. Ahh I love Music, Mayer & Musicians in general. Thank you Michael.
Wow that's a fun observation! You can see Isaiah and John looking at each other at the same time and smile. It could be a coincidence but I don't want it to be.
Mike, I just got here. Your subscribers who are suggesting all these songs to react to are a BAD ASS bunch of people. I have increased my library significantly because of them/you. I LOVE how you pick stuff apart ... even though I don't play guitar at all and barely speak music from only a singer's point of view. I am HOOKED on this channel, yo. Kepp it up.
I've watched this video of the jam a 1000 times , tried to play over it so many times but I get a little lost , so glad I found this video of yours man! Subbed!!
I just saw this for the first time and I listened to it like 10 times before bed last night. It's just so good!! I can't even.... As Sharky is playing, I found myself numerous times just laughing out loud at the mastery of it. You can tell who the musicians are in the audience. Especially the guitar players, lol.It makes me sad, in a way, becuase I have no one to share my love of this and jazz with. Everybody i know is like, "Yawn," lol. I need more good-music-loving people in my life! Sigh.
I cannot find the original video anymore. It makes me really sad. I am very happy you made this though - hope it stays up! Such an amasing performance!
Ok I gotta suggest John playing with the legendary Pino Palladino and Steve Jordan covering Jimi Hendrix. This clip is balls to the wall the whole time; never letting up. The John Mayer Trio was a hell of a project and I’d love to see you break it down. ruclips.net/video/q-uSnRVy0Fs/видео.html
When I saw them years ago it blew me away. Idk how but those three guys filled up a 30k stadium with intimacy like it was in my bedroom. One of the best gigs I've ever seen.

8:05 - the trumpet player is Rashawn Ross of Dave Matthews Band.
Guy is a nasty horn player. Love that dude.
That drummer has the most perfect reverb on his kit. Whoever ran that sound setup. Also sharky took the prize for hardest on the stage that night.
was just thinking the same
I love how no guitar player can listen to this jam without playing along.
That's how I know I'm a bad player :/
and damn im terrible compared to them but at the same time i just grab my guitar every time i watch this video, this jam is amazing
For sure, had to pick my strat up while watching this one. Great stuff
DRH's tone is fiiiilthy. I need a 335 in my arsenal.
Mate, you do, they can do everything. You won't regret it, you might I suppose if you play 'authentic' 😂

The album “Lightyears” by David Ryan Harris is an absolutely top-notch experience all the way through. Everybody that likes this band and groove would love the album. Do yourselves a favor and check it out.
jondoesgym on it
@Guitargate I loved watching this video! Nice to see how exited you are! I also liked the explanation of the things the're doing in the video! Great job man! Love it!🙂🙌🏼
Yea watched this sick, humbling, inspiring jam when it came out... your love of music shared so openly is beautiful here brother. 🙌🔥
29:42 had me rolling 😂😂 Great job dude!
You hear David Ryan Harris say, "This is the last Train, the last Train Home" then Johns ears prick up with that being the name of his single this year a year and a bit later. Maybe it was a tip of the hat from David because he had already heard it way back then or John got the idea in that moment. Ahh I love Music, Mayer & Musicians in general. Thank you Michael.
Wow that's a fun observation! You can see Isaiah and John looking at each other at the same time and smile. It could be a coincidence but I don't want it to be.
Mike, I just got here. Your subscribers who are suggesting all these songs to react to are a BAD ASS bunch of people. I have increased my library significantly because of them/you. I LOVE how you pick stuff apart ... even though I don't play guitar at all and barely speak music from only a singer's point of view.
I am HOOKED on this channel, yo. Kepp it up.
"God is good..." LOL! My sentiments exactly! DRH has some serious vocal chops too! All living legends on stage!
Anyone else just love it when mike gets lost for a sec and is just living the dream of playing with that band?!
As always, I love your enthusiasm and expert insights, you’re amazing Michael!! 🥰
I've watched this video of the jam a 1000 times , tried to play over it so many times but I get a little lost , so glad I found this video of yours man! Subbed!!
love your enthusiasm in this video. this is exactly how i listen to this so I'm glad someone else does too haha
hahaha I love watching your face when you’re just watching someone jam
Brilliant video thanks Michael! Loved it. Blown away.
Wow!, your joy is so infectious, spendid reactions, interactions and breakdowns. 😎🎸🎙✅
Watching you watch it, was like watching me when I saw it for the first time. Down to the "look at that cymbal". Great video
Love your analysis & reaction. Please do more of John Mayer live.
I just saw this for the first time and I listened to it like 10 times before bed last night. It's just so good!! I can't even.... As Sharky is playing, I found myself numerous times just laughing out loud at the mastery of it. You can tell who the musicians are in the audience. Especially the guitar players, lol.It makes me sad, in a way, becuase I have no one to share my love of this and jazz with. Everybody i know is like, "Yawn," lol. I need more good-music-loving people in my life! Sigh.
Yes!! This was my request, thanks so much! You have to check out John Mayer playing Aint No Sunshine with Pino and Steve J at the 2010 Crossroads!!!
This sax player is our insurance there will be sax players in future generations.
I cannot find the original video anymore. It makes me really sad. I am very happy you made this though - hope it stays up! Such an amasing performance!
Man , you are so awesome !!!! Keep up the great work . Love it .
I watched the video about 20 times already, and now seeing it here I'm still not tired of it!
The posture shift at 29:08 tells me everything I need to know about Michael as a musician
Man I really love your channel! Reminds me of growing up and playing with my buddies and trying to pick out tunes :) thanks! Keep on🤙
Damn, I love these videos of yours!
And your true passion for music. Rock on!!!
Your groove face is infectious sir! Amazing music thank you for reacting to it can’t believe I’ve never heard it either
Watching this made my day. Thank you man!
Ok I gotta suggest John playing with the legendary Pino Palladino and Steve Jordan covering Jimi Hendrix. This clip is balls to the wall the whole time; never letting up. The John Mayer Trio was a hell of a project and I’d love to see you break it down. ruclips.net/video/q-uSnRVy0Fs/видео.html
When I saw them years ago it blew me away. Idk how but those three guys filled up a 30k stadium with intimacy like it was in my bedroom. One of the best gigs I've ever seen.
James Cheever I believe that!
Bernie Connors waiting for the trio to come back. Also the dvd Where the Light Is has everything.
Still one of my favorite albums!
How fun.
Love it when the pieces come together and MAKES MUSIC.
🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤

Crazy good music and crazy good reactions to the music! It’s like watching badass vids with my friend haha. Helping me through this pandemic !
GREAT video explanation of an outstanding performance.
Seriously enjoyed this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oh man! I was there!! Thats was an epic night!
