...is a showoff.











I saw his special on PBS last night (Soundstage... 2 episodes. Each an hour long) with Buddy Guy and goddamn I forgot how amazing of a guitar player he is. I mean, I knew he was amazing but the awe I used to get from watching Any Given Thursday has been less impressive the last few tiimes. But after seeing him play some of the newer songs live (including one that may or may not be on the new record) and all his interludes/jams he adds to songs I've fallen in love all with his live show all over again.

i saw him live one time at Jones Beach, and it was just on a whim someone had a ticket I went, he impressed the shit out of me. he really is such an amazing guitar player which is rare now a days. i'm still waiting for the god damn song with Kanye West.

if you ever happen to be flipping through the channels and see the Soundstage episode with John Mayer on, WATCH IT. it's so great.

I was flipping through the channels before I fell asleep and saw it was on and ended up staying awake for another 2 hours because I couldn't turn it off.

oh, i'm very aware of the reference.

There are many guitar players more talented the John Mayer.

are there many as talented as John Mayer that are as successful as John Mayer?

I know there's loads of people just as good (if not better) than Mayer. But he's a bona fide talented musician in the world of Top 40 radio... that doesn't happen too often.

i just realized there is a running theme in my group. either they are black or have black traits...

i'd probably go derek jeter because he can get any woman in the state of NY.

what i meant by that is how many top 40 artists do you know that are as talented as him in terms of playing the guitar? of course there are better guitarists and so on that is a null point, any one who listens to music should know that.

Did you hear As Is? His other double disc live CD?

it is complete shit compared to the Soundstage performance. I'm downloading a rip of it right now so I'll have some new live Mayer to listen to since I still don't feel the need to listen to As Is like I did with Any Given Thursday.
