John Mayer's take on gear/tone....

[merlop]

My wife said "that was sad"

 

[sandman]

maybe he isn't taking his self seriously but at least do the song some justice.....sorry i watched that....what has been seen and heard can't be undone now.....

The "Room for Squares" album really touched my heart.

We're about the same age, so, both 24/25 when it came out.

It's pretty cool that he was technically accurate and considerate in his approach to describe relationships he considers when evaluating his signal chain.

Man.... Why did he do that? Yuk!!!

Stick to the pop songs!! or just go all blues!!! not much money in the blues though..

SORRY JOEY!!

 

[headlessdeadguy]

That was terrible.

While I am not a fan of JM, i think he has done so much since he released his first album with regards to advancing his craft. The room for Squares album is somewhat his bridge in order to get his feet insided a cut throat business.

I really respect him as a guitar player and a songwriter. He may not be the fastest shredder alive but he's got some chops too. This, combined with his songwriting and drive is what makes him so loved by his fans. Personally, i like some of this songs (Waiting for the World....).

Now we can see him experiment more on what he really likes to do and getting out of that "pop" piegeon hole.

Not to mention, he has Jennifer Aniston when all else fails.

He gets some good "strat" tones.
I don't personally care for him or his attitude.
I feel like is a celebrity now... not a musician. And that's an easy thing to get caught up in(money, women, fame)
To each his own though.
My listening is mostly TOOL or Holdsworth or very progressive in nature.
I actually think he is a better acoustic player than electric.
He also sounded more original on acoustic.
Check out the original acoustic version of the song "Neon"

oh I guess I'm an ass kisser because I follow JM but all the people around here who suck Andy T./EVH/Guthrie' dick are ok?

I like to suck a little Jerry C. dick but just the head only.

 

[rupe]

I thought he was good on "Chapelle's Show"

Poor Joey!!
You opened a can of worms...

 

[Joeytpg]

it's ok man, I'm used to it, I post it anyways. To each it's own.

By the way Mayer is not my brother/boyfriend/fuckbuddy/sister or anything like that so I'm not "hurt" by the comments at all. sometimes I do find them silly, but everyone's entitled to his opinion

I have a good laugh with some of the comments too hehehehe

What's that? I can't hear what you're saying what with Mayer's tuffy nestled between your lips.

Holy Crap, I almost wet myself, thats pretty damn funny!!!

 

[Stratboy151]

i like mayer, he has a good feel and write good tunes, usually.

 

[aeroic]

Wow....that was one of the WORST renditions of Panama I have ever heard. Sad....Mayer should stick to pop songs...before laying a big pile o steamy terds on a killer song. Not cool for sure!

I like John Mayer too..but that about made hurl! Definitely lost a little respect for him after watching that for sure!
