This man is incredible. This CD/DVD just further cements his status as one of the true guitar legends.

I was just watching So You Think You Can Dance (that's how I roll 8-)) and a John Mayer song was on. I realized how much I really like this guy's music.

The set on this live album is so good. He does a short acoustic set first, then a set with The Trio, and then one with his full band.

It was AMAZING. I saw it on the big screen Monday at a local movie theater. He just freaking rips on his guitar. He can play ANYthing.

I'm not a huge fan of him, not sure why.

Good guitarist, incredibly boring music.

You people who think his music is boring are freaking nutso. His guitar playing is phenomenal and his lyrics are so true to life.

Yeah, great album (didn't watch the DVD), but I just can't love John Mayer. I tried to, listened to most of his albums, but... Only thing that was left was a lot of respect for the guy, but no love for the music.

I'd say this is pretty accurate.

You can't really force yourself to like his music. You either like it, or you don't. Not full of catchy hooks or power chords, just kinda soulful.

Music doesn't have to be full of catchy hooks or power chords to keep my attention. I listen to plenty of music without these elements, and it isn't boring like John Mayer is...

Good at spreading delusions on the Internet. Incredibly boring taste in music.

Neither is just about everything I listen to. Mayer's music is dull, predictable, and filled with mediocre lyrics. Just another pop act under the guise of a soulful artist as far as I'm concerned.

Have you listened to any of the John Mayer Trio? That's far from boring.

I wanted to see it at a theater, but it wasn't playing anywhere near MA, I was pretty bummed.
But, I'm going to see him next Saturday, third row. So that makes up for it!

Watching the DVD now, it's awesome. Man, I love John, and I'm not ashamed.

I like John Mayer. I still think Room for Squares is his best album to date.

Really? I think Continuum is light years ahead of that one.

Agreed. Although St. Patrick's Day is probably my favorite song by him. Continuum is definitely my favorite album by him. Stop This Train kills me.

In concert, he's good, but kind of mumbly. He was at Summerfest up here in Wisconsin, with Colbie Callait and Bret Dennen.

He's a very capable guitar player who, unfortunately, settles on being "bad white people music."

He's just so awesome.

I've seen him live twice and I'm going to see him again this summer. I've always been far away though

I saw a little bit of this yesterday when I was in Best Buy. Looked like a great show. Very well put together, and of course the music was excellent. I may pick this up.

It's impossible for me to pick my favorite performance from this, they're all so good. "Out of My Mind" is up there though.
