John Mayer performed in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for the Rock in Rio festival on September 21, 2013. Footage courtesy of Rock in Rio Festival and Globo Networks
I was there and I cried in that solo, because during the entire concert John seemed a little nervous and kind of worried about the limited time to perform, but in that moment he spread his wings and was at his best. As a guitar player myself i recognize the moment when music takes over and you are only a channel for something bigger come to existence, you are only yourself, and yet everyone else at the same time... A moment like this makes a whole life worth living.
Usually shows in Brazil beats some of the big world cities shows. IDK why. I can recall a great David Guetta show at Guarapari (a small beach city at a small brazilian state) and another one at Cape Town at Ultra festival that sucked ass. I don't know, I guess brazilian crowds make the shows as well. But german and russian crowds, especially in rock/metal shows, are hard contestants too
This is why Brazilians say “Come to brazil” to every musician 👏🏽👏🏽 best crowd. Great job Mr Mayer dropping the guitar “let the gravity do its work” before the final solo.
@@officialsky5430 I'm brazilian and I have to agree, the L.A. one surpass was the best one ever...I guess for DVD specials you have to bring your A game
For all of you guys, I personally feel like THIS is literally the best version EVER! It's PURE PERFECTION! Perhaps better than the LA version too... 👇 ruclips.net/video/bc7BaZePyaE/видео.html
Some storytelling: in this day he was the opening act for Bruce Springsteen, but it was John's first time ever in Brazil, so a lot of fans flew from every corner of the country to watch his show. After he finished his performance, a huge part of the audience went home since some people were standing there waiting for John under a very hot sun for 10 hours or so. Afterwards Bruce did an amazing show (as usual) of about three hours that pissed off the organization because it wasn't supposed to last that long, but for a way smaller audience than John, although it was still like tens of thousands of people. Some people even argued that John should be the final act of the day, but I personally think that Bruce being the opening act for John would be a little too much lol
Lucas Montenegro exatcly! And I was one of those people going home after John's performance. Seeing almost half of the audience walking out of the front stage was really weird and funny at the same time.
I was there that day just for John Mayer, I didn't even watch Springsteen's concert. Right after Mayer's concert I left Rock in Rio. Last year I was there in Jeunesse Arena too. Unforgetable moments
I stayed 13 hours without going to the bathroom, under the hot sun, just to see all 4 concerts and I don’t regret. It was amazing, and best part was that touched Springsteen’s hand and arm because of Mayer’s fans that left early LOL. Good times 🥰
After this solo, I confirmed something what I already knew: this guy is the best composer, guitarist and the complete artist in the world in this time!! COME BACK TO BRAZIL, JOHN... You're the best!! :D
I remember this day, I was in the building in front of the festival, I went down the street and went to the festival gate, and you were playing, unfortunately I didn't have money to enter the festival and I stayed listening from outside, but I thank you for adding musical value to my life. ♥
Somos os melhores "recepcionistas" dos grandes nomes da musica mundial e todos que provam dessa troca de energias no palco conosco sabem que somos especiais,.....Somos BRASILEIROS!
I love this crowd, here and in other videos they are so excited and happy, they cry, they scream, they're loving what they're watching and you can feel that
Everyone changes. Musicans too. they don't be better, or worse.. just different. He changes too... if he didn't change a little every year, he would get tired of his music... this is the way that he could play everytime with happiness. :)) Enjoy it!
Steve jordan is one of the most amazing drummers i've ever seen. and Gravity played for him is another story...but Aaron Sterling is so so good! with a capital "G" the sound of the snare is from another planet...Good for Him...
This is why I fucking love John, He still has that in him, not too many artists ESPECIALLY now a days would never have the balls to do this. I mean look at his face, he looks like a kid again, having the time of his life
We’ve been outta power and all through Louisiana after Hurricane Laura as soon as I could I came hear to hear my favorite Gravityyy and 🙏 thank you John Mayer.God bless you.Keep me where the light is.Amen.
A energia que ele passa para o público é incrível. Ele é um ótimo cantor e um ótimo instrumentista. Tenho orgulho de falar que estava lá e que o John é um dos meus maiores ídolos. #MayerisBack :)
There are not enough heart emoji in cyberspace too let a Johnny know how much his piece draws me in and takes me to another place . ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦♥️
Words aren't enough then just grateful and hope in heart that you return often. Brasília, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Recife, Fortaleza ... many other cities await you and your music. Thank you so much! Was incredible for you, was incredible for us.
This is by far I mean by farthest I have ever in my lifetimes see the intimate truth of his music the deepest Love of his life.. Spirit ..and soul of life in him and amazing love of his fans he is the best..⚡️🎸⚡️⚡️🎸⚡️⚡️🎸⚡️🔥🔥🔥
I was 13 when I attended to my first Rock in Rio in 2001... and then 2011... and then 2013. I'm 25 now and i'm not living in Brazil anymore bc of my job, it took me 14h of flight to get to my lovely Rio and once again watch this amazing festival and I must say.... ask Nickelback, ask John Mayer, ask Slipknot, ask anyone... there's no other crowd like Rock in Rio (IN RIO). In fact there's no other crowd like us, not with this kind of passion. :) U go Brazil, we lov ya!
Words can't express what i feel. you're an inspiration of life, of musican and of man. I'm really proud of you, your show was unbelivable and i love you more than you can imagine. Cheers John, please come back, i want to see you!
The best of all rock in rio! What a show, what feelling of his guitar and songs! Amazing John. Thank you so much for the most incredible show of my life, and for a lot of people to. Come back soon!
Every single song you play is drug for me it takes me to paradise, all the emotions can feel in all the songs, but specially this one, every single time is like a new song never the same, always PERFECT. It feels like the first time......
His fingers have brains in them....hearing him sing and play the guitar is LOVE to my ears. Now I know why im being so picky with men, its because i want a musician.
I feel as if he was on the edge all the time, overwhelming with creativity, and he couldnt stand. Man, great focking show, its been so long that we've seen a guitar player, songwriter and singer this good, its truly amazing to have john in our generation
the chills that i got just by watching this is more than enough .. just imagining being on that stage blowing that solo with that much crowd singing the words is just heavenly... god bless youtube...
![John Mayer - Gravity [SRV Solo Style]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2CHF40WMLI0/mqdefault.jpg)
You know a great guitar player when he enjoys perform his own music. And John Mayer goes nuts every time he plays Gravity.
Allan Santos lopes He really does!
Allan Santos lopes 😳
1100th like!!
Gravity reminds us who we are
Surely so! One can unmistakably notice that! 😊👏👏
As a guitar player, I admire this guy more than I should.
How can you admire John Mayer to much?! Have you seen his guitar lessons, those are incredible
if you admire him too much, I can't even begin to imagine how much girl guitarists do....
Your profile picture and name combination made me cackle
This extraordinary show deserved an official release💎🎸👌☘️

Também tava lá no dia. Lembro que fiquei perplexo, pois nunca tinha escutado. Virei fã desde então. Catártico.
Beautifully explained the feeling i yearn for… to play for an audience…
Bucketlist: Go to a John Mayer concert in Brazil. Holy crap this beat the Los Angeles crowd by far
Usually shows in Brazil beats some of the big world cities shows. IDK why. I can recall a great David Guetta show at Guarapari (a small beach city at a small brazilian state) and another one at Cape Town at Ultra festival that sucked ass. I don't know, I guess brazilian crowds make the shows as well. But german and russian crowds, especially in rock/metal shows, are hard contestants too
Novo Tom good or bad?
I am not a Brazilian, but Brazil have the most wonderul music festival crowd ever. They enjoy anyone who plays.
Ohio shows are close in vibe tbh. Dead and co or just John.
As one of this screaming brazilians, my guess is that we are so noisy cuz our actual pop music here sucks in many ways
This is why Brazilians say “Come to brazil” to every musician 👏🏽👏🏽 best crowd. Great job Mr Mayer dropping the guitar “let the gravity do its work” before the final solo.
hahaha, actually, that's all we know how to speak in English
@@joaovictorhissnauerpaloco5678 nah, we know a lot.
Hahahahah yeeeees "come to Brazil"
The truth is that in Brazil we do more than simply enjoy the show, we force ourselves into be part of the show
07:26 What a bound and chemistry from the band especially drummer, man. He is waiting john to get the notes.
Insane performance!!
I've heard gravity like a thousand times and this is by far the best one!!!
Gus Bus nah i think L.A version is superior to basically 98% of songs ever made.
Cristobal Ordonez yeah man, the L.A version still the best
@@officialsky5430 I'm brazilian and I have to agree, the L.A. one surpass was the best one ever...I guess for DVD specials you have to bring your A game
For all of you guys, I personally feel like THIS is literally the best version EVER! It's PURE PERFECTION! Perhaps better than the LA version too...

Brazil always has the best crowd.
Argentina riverplate
Emmanuel Colmenero argentina has the best crowd
Argentina it’s better
the best is South Korea.
Korea? are you joking? haha
the best crowd are UK, Argentina, Japan and Brazil
His first time in Brazil and he gave them the show they deserved. John mayer is a legend.
That crowd shocked me when they starting singing so loud, wowoowowow.
Best show in my entire life.

2020, still crying.
I usually cry and then get horny on that last solo
@@lexi-op5vk 😂😂😂HAHAHAHHA
2022 and still crying 😭
Definitely one of the most beautiful performances of Gravity!
I love this crowd, here and in other videos they are so excited and happy, they cry, they scream, they're loving what they're watching and you can feel that
See, men? Girls can love you for your fingers, too!
Seriously, though. He's ridiculously good.
LOOOOOOL! XDDDD
But John is a bigger handsome man too
absolutely!
Have you heard of sungha jung? hahahaha
Everyone changes. Musicans too. they don't be better, or worse.. just different. He changes too... if he didn't change a little every year, he would get tired of his music... this is the way that he could play everytime with happiness. :)) Enjoy it!
Quanta emoção ver o John fazendo um solo incrível desse!!! Melhor show, incrível, incrível, que saudade desse dia! PLEEEASE, COME BACK!
John Mayer making love to the guitar on stage lol
Alyssa Cee fuck you

Legend has it that the guitar got pregnant that night. True story.
And she gave birth to the album that came out next .
Hahaha
Lol
Add had baby ukes
Thus came PRS
I still shiver everytime I remember this concert... Definetely, a night to remember
Steve jordan is one of the most amazing drummers i've ever seen. and Gravity played for him is another story...but Aaron Sterling is so so good! with a capital "G" the sound of the snare is from another planet...Good for Him...
Man, this Gravity was mind-flowing! Thank you, John and Rio!
This is why I fucking love John, He still has that in him, not too many artists ESPECIALLY now a days would never have the balls to do this. I mean look at his face, he looks like a kid again, having the time of his life
Existe adjetivo que defina John Mayer? Ele é a música materializada em um corpo ❤️🇧🇷
Sooo good but sooo short. Still,one of the tops shows of my life. Love you,John. Come back soon! Next year! And stay a little longer!
A melhor apresentação de Gravity da história! Foi lindo demais, que emoção estar tão perto do John! ♥
Didn't know Jim Hopper from Stranger Things played the drums that good
🤣🤣🤣
Same here :)
Lol i thought the same
What a legendary performance and what an incredible crowd...... A-Mayer-Zing !!!! 2020
From far away the best show of my life! Come back to Brazil, John
Hey, Rafaela.I think you meant "by far the best show of my life." This is how they say "de longe..." Anyway, John Mayer rocks!
OMG!!!!
JOHN YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never gets old!!! 😍😍😍
We’ve been outta power and all through Louisiana after Hurricane Laura as soon as I could I came hear to hear my favorite Gravityyy and 🙏 thank you John Mayer.God bless you.Keep me where the light is.Amen.

Também estava lá. Esse momento aí foi foda demais.
There are simply no words..just awe.
And that, my friends, is how you do it.
well said
You can say all you want guys, but he's JOHN MAYER! He can do WHATEVER HE WANTS to his songs and licks!
That last guitar floor solo always got me wondering what he could do to a woman's body, JESUS
strum their belly button and neck muscles
If i were a women, I'll say, please... don't stop... playing
Ingrid Oliveira us guitarists are sensual , sensitive and clever ! X
@@GJSsongsmith You forgot to mention that us guitar players would prefer to play guitar on a woman's body instead of playing with a women's body
@@vipelere true shit
There are not enough heart emoji in cyberspace too let a Johnny know how much his piece draws me in and takes me to another place . ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦♥️
2018 e eu ainda aqui, admirando esse homão
Loved it! Brazil loves u, John!
Goddamn that line at 5:15 coming into the next chorus so good, gets me every time.
I am confusion.
@@ahmedtoma6963 he’s talking about the guitar solo
His drummer is a BEAST
Sempre que vejo esse vídeo é uma emoção diferente. É muito difícil não ser fã do John
Amazing, I miss !! back to Brazil, John! Brazil loves you
lol the drummer thought he was trying to end it when he dropped the guitar.
He killed it too man
Legend.
Eu fico em em choque com esse solo. Sensacional
Vendo do Brasil em 2021!
Dude knows how to melt the pannies off.
sign your pity on the runny kine
Nunca esqueço desse show do John Mayer no rock in rio!! Memorável!!
that solo scared me when he dropped his guitar on the floor but then he starts playing it like he was holding it normally
Amazing ❤❤❤
Dude isn't playing guitar.. he's making love to it 😌
Words aren't enough then just grateful and hope in heart that you return often. Brasília, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Porto Alegre, Recife, Fortaleza ... many other cities await you and your music.
Thank you so much! Was incredible for you, was incredible for us.
Mano, esse vídeo é uma OBRA DE ARTE!! ❤❤🇧🇷
Please, come to back in Brazil 🇧🇷😢❤
John Mayer is the 21st century Jimi Hendrix an absolute beast on the guitar 🎸
That's the first time I have seen a non gospel singer bless his audience and then bless them once more with an amazing solo.
And That's on being the most exciting performer in all of history
The only musician who can recreate the music that he created. Such talent. ❤😊
By gravity force, my mouth opened thougth all solo.. John, for my generatiron, you're a Blues legend.
BRAZIL LOVES YOU JOHN! just come back soon!
John inspired me to realize an old dream: I bought a guitar
Massa! :D
And how it is going??
Dae... fluiu o sonho? Tá tocando muito??? :)
If you were really into guitar, 7 years later you must play extremely well. Any updates?
how is it?
5:58 minutes in is the exact moment I start to imagine what other things those fingers could do
You're not alone, myself I have a fetish. From experience: yes good guitarists tend to be good at using their fingers
Hahaha same here
You said what every girl was thinking. This song is a fuckin’ panty dropper. I’m a puddle on the god damn floor.
Brazil loves you! Come back to Rio!
Brazilians are just the best audience 🤘
Sensational! What a night, I'll remember this for the rest of my life. Thank you, John. I love youuu!
best version ever
This is my favorite song of yours to sing.
Always love your modulations
2016 e não me canso de escutar essa musica

It was at this moment, a total fucking badass was born

Drummer must be like:
