ajzepp Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I'm a marginal fan of John Mayer the solo artist, but when he gets together with the John Mayer Trio, it's some REALLY good stuff. I have one of their CDs and it's become a favorite, and tonight I'm watching them perform on HDNet. These are some talented cats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I agree. I'd like to see that special, but have seen the trio several times, on TV. I don't own any Mayer albums, but I respect the guy. He has the right attitude, IMO, to become a real musician, and not simply some stupid rock star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This special also is part documentary, so you get to see a little bit of what's going on back stage and what's in this guy's head. I love the solo acoustic stuff, and I like when he's got the full band behind him, but the Trio is my favorite. That drummer is ridiculous!

Wooderson Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Damn, I thought it said John BUTLER Trio which is a personal favorite. Pertaining to John Mayer, I've never heard of the Trio. I like some of his music, but some of his other stuff is quite annoying, IMO. Is the John Mayer Trio the same type of music or is it much different?

This is interesting stuff, you're right, it is much much different than his normal music. I like the second song, Out of My Mind. I like the soloing aspect that Mayer takes, It kind of reminded me of a John Butler Trio song actually.
