John Mayer Band • Page 7

Neon = Hardest guitar riff in the world. How the heck does he play that with two fingers?

 

Yeah I straight gave up on that.

 

Even “who says” is tricky lol.

 

Forgot how much I enjoy "Love on the Weekend."

 

Such a great little tune.

 

That whole album is underrated. Got dumped on by everyone for its weird release which was admittedly super weird, but Still Feel Like Your Man, Love on the Weekend, Moving On, Helpless, In The Blood, all classic Mayer.

My one complaint is that the last couple songs make it sound like a Pixar movie soundtrack.

 

I always forget about Battle Studies, probably because Born and Raised was my introduction and then went into Continuum, so it's sandeiched between those monsters in his discography, but revisiting it now and it's so good.

I personally don't mind Crossroads, find it a fun little break. Heartbreak, Perfectly Lonely and War of my Life are all probably top tier John songs for me, definitely the first two.

 

What do people like about Born & Raised? I’ve given it many casual listens and not much sticks with me.

Shadow Days is probably his weakest single period.

 

The songwriting is ace on that album. It's his second best after Continuum imo.

 

Oh man, Shadows Days is one of my favourites haha. Mostly, its the instrumentation that really appeals to me, so full and lush while maintaining that folk rock aesthetic, but I enjoy the lyrics too.

 

Anyone see him on this most recent tour? Contemplating checking him out.

 

I want to go but I’ll be on vacation when he comes here next week. You should definitely go though!

 

No. But I have had friends that have thoroughly enjoyed it. Really playing a diverse array of stuff. Highly recommend based on the recommendation of 4-5 friends who saw the show.

 

He played Continuum in full in the middle of a show a few weeks ago. That would have been amazing to see.

 

damn, I would kill to see that.

 

I would shit myself in public for that

 

And yeah, John is a must-see if like his music even the tiniest bit

 

Absolutely agree. He is a must-see. A rare talent. We are lucky to have him around.

 

Yep. Here it is:

John Mayer Setlist at Madison Square Garden, New York

 

At MSG of course. Artists always love to give their best at MSG. But I'm a biased New Yorker. So yeah.

 

Genuinely would have cried if that happened at a show I was attending

 

In Repair is one of his most underrated songs.

 

He had Chris Stapleton come by for a song in Nashville and they played something they wrote together just this week.

 

Song is great. I listened to it once yesterday and have had it stuck in my head all weekend, hope it gets an official release.

Put two top tier songwriters in a room together for even just a couple hours and this is what you get.
