@@roonieramshaw929 When I read your comment, I was like, "Wait, what?? ...Nokia Theatre?!" -- There's a Nokia Theatre in Grand Prairie, TX (Dallas County), which is where I had my graduation. After looking it up, turns out it's one of 3 in the country, the other two being in NY and Los Angeles. For a second there I thought this might have been in my own hometown, lol. That would have been interesting.
Not Bob Dylan impressive but composition and technique are impressive. This song and style was heavily influenced from watching Tomo Fujita, an amazing guitarist he met at Berklee. Check him out.
that melbourne one was sick but this one he throws in that baseline into Tom's Diner. Multi-tasking like that, fella could land a plane, cook a 3 course dinner & 3 base muta to 5 hatch hydra at the same time. I just had almost forgotten how awesome he is on acoustic. I haven't seen any of the other guitar "gods" play electric & acoustic at this level.
***** Still trying. heh! Fortunately, i can use my thumb on the fretting hand to do it more precisely. Kind of big hands, not sure if it's good or bad. The claw is complicated, tough to pick some specific strings at the correct time.
it' interesting to notice that the word NEON sounds a lot like the japanese word for Japan (Nihon). So for the audience in Tokyo, the chours was like "Japannnnn Japannnn" so that was definetly a funny coincendce =)
Hate to be that guy, but actually.......... The two words really don't sound that much alike. Neon is pronounced like neeahn, with a short vowel sound, like with the word "on", while Nihon is pronounced like neehone with a long vowel sound. So... the audience probably didn't hear their nation's name in the song at all.
Holy fuck, when he sped it up and still played it like ut was nothing!! Having practiced and tried this for hours really makes you appreciate his skill, cause you know how hard it is.
We are such a global marketplace these days that we are sometimes numb to the phenomenon of one person's music reaching so deeply into people's hearts everywhere! John's fans seem to be just as fervently into him no matter what part of the world he is in. REMARKABLE.......yet so understandable when you listen to the music!
haha, can u believe he recorded neon on a electric guitar? christ i had almost forgotten. Also i think this may rival his live in LA peformance. that solo is def the best hes done for it plus his voice is almost completely back to normal. Hes back
@@whitewalker608 I think the Live in LA one is definitely not 100% authentic, I am not a sound engineer or anything but I can hear there is some kind of effect or pitch correction on his voice( I dont know if im using the right terms but it sounds too perfect to my ears, its not natural)
He may not be the best. (but for me, he is among the best lol ya, I love him for sure) But he is the most interactive one with audience. I have never seen a guitarist taught the audience how he played during concert. lol
can somebody translate the intro please :) i appreciate that
Something like this:
"The first time I came to Tokyo I studied at Kojo High School in Odawara. I had studied japanese." (cheers) ..."- Today I can understand a little bit"
First thing he says in Japanese is
"please wait a moment"
The intro says, i like from behind.

He was out of tempo A LOT of times.
@@whitewalker608 there was no tempo💀.
6:07
I love the way how he stops to sing suddenly and gives a tutorial about the song's intro.
He wrote this song at 20. Can you imagine??
His next album will be amazing!!
hell yeah :)

George Hetzer I'd say this was as Tomo-influenced as it was Charlie Hunter influenced.
a fuckin talent
That solo's gotta be my favorite one he's ever done
I thought it wasnt one of the most impressive he's done. check out his Melbourne solo or other live ones hes done.
that melbourne one was sick but this one he throws in that baseline into Tom's Diner.

me too. unreal.
Moo
Naa dude.
"Easy shapes"... Yeah, right. Trying to pickup that technique for 2 months now. Damn you with that absurd talent, Mayer.
i have a "lesson" that may help you with the picking pattern. I would really appreciate if you checked it out. :)
***** Still trying. heh! Fortunately, i can use my thumb on the fretting hand to do it more precisely. Kind of big hands, not sure if it's good or bad. The claw is complicated, tough to pick some specific strings at the correct time.
i don't think he said easy shapes i think he said these are the shapes he just said it really quick
Nothing this guy does on guitar is easy. Simply phenomenal.
i have a video on the picking technique, check it out if you need help
I don’t know why I felt so at home watching this, he has such a comforting aura, such a powerful one
Literally the same exact feeling I have about his whole being
The guy who shouts "keep studying!" Lol...
Love how he just does a tutorial in the middle of his performance
Haha! "Nobody gets a third verse" ... then goes into the most amazing solo he has ever done. Genius. A virtuoso!
Did you hear tom's diner too?

Hahahaha
Well that was really lovely haha
It is because of the name it has on the periodic table... Not a coincidence

@@郭義中 Now listen to how Mayer pronounces it in the chorus, O sound not an Ah sound, mostly
seems like he had a lot of fun on stage that night. Always great to see
カッコよすぎだろ…
He even did a tutorial at the end! Friggin awesome performance!
He will sing for you and he will give a guitar tutorial...totally worth going for his shows😄
omg.. that mini tutorial at the end was so nice
'neon?' *immediately tunes to drop c like a fucking baws
Nick Merrick it’s not exactly in drop c but the point still remains, he immediately tunes without a tuner like a freak of nature lol
only the lowE
he has a tuner pedal on the floor
@@DakotaHarvey62 but the third fret of fifth string is a c, so you just use that as a reference.
@@DakotaHarvey62 bruh
I feel like John recently watched this and then decided to make the end instruction into a tiktok haha
he is so talented and entertaining. He even respects the culture and people who come to see him that he put a little Japanese spin on the songs!
his range is coming back!!!!! yess
What a talent!
There is no words for this. I just shocked 😳
このライブ行きました！最後のギターリフのゆっくりとスピードアップするところがたまらなかったですね😊
This is my favourite version of neon, hands down! Tops everything so far
Holy fuck, when he sped it up and still played it like ut was nothing!!
Having practiced and tried this for hours really makes you appreciate his skill, cause you know how hard it is.
Hell yes!! His voice is completely back, and he nailed this classic Mayer tune. Thanks for the video. Damn he sounds great! Love this so much.
absolute madman, just casually did the melody of toms diner in his solo part at 5:00-5:15
the funny thing is that it’s also in the song called centuries
最強にかっこいい
He can finally hit the notes in the chorus! He hasn't been able to do that in a while! By the way, anyone notice he didn't sing the second verse?
Hit the notes as in vocally or by the guitar ?
So much respect for JM, you speaking my language and you're my favorite guitarist.
He went into the S. Vega song "Tom's Dinner" for a second during the solo, awesome!

Dont understimate hype
Great talent is appreciated i every country
俺この日見に行った！！
超かっこ良かったな........

Nope, he was out of tempo A LOT and was out of tune in many places as well. LA is definitely his best one.

Wow John Mayer your incredible
One of my favorite players for sure, got to learn this song
I love john mayer signature martin om jm. They are beautiful
Yeahh but toooooooooo expensive 😫😫😫😫
John Mayer is a stud. I want to hate him for how good he is, but I just have to love it. Thanks John
カッコいいですね！
HOW DOES HE SING SO GOOD WHILE DOING THAT GODLY PLAY ON GUITAR. DAM
This version is amazing cuz he himself teaches them how to play Neon.
Johnny speaking japanese, the best life of my life
4:50 John is a LEGEND. How do you slide that riff in so easily?
What song was he playing? It sounds so familiar
@@zahubshahid7944 Tom's Diner; a timeless classic!
What idiot is yelling "GRAVITYYY!!!" while John's holding his OM-28
Well I bet he can play any song really well on both kind of guitars.
@@whitewalker608 no doubt, but I think we can all agree on Gravity being much better with the full band for a concert setting.
th-cam.com/video/4MZBjBGGOCk/w-d-xo.html..Thank me later
gravity was likely written on an om-28 lol, he writes his songs on the acoustic guitar
This guy will forever be my favourite artist!
ほんとかっこいい。thanks for uploading this.
やっぱりかっけえー
I love how he put that centuries bit on his solo :)
I don’t what it is about this version but that tone of those bass notes especially around 1:57 is surreal
This version is the underrated but just as cool little brother of Live in L.A.
Please come to Seoul, again!!!!!!!!!
Boy is just flat out SICK!
The solo is awesome.
This is pure honesty for the gift he has :) Teaching on stage like a boss :)
Amazing performance
He's too much, John you always made my day...Es lo más, escuchando John Mayer siempre tengo un buen día...
He is just a maestro in guitar and vocals
まじかっこよすぎる
He did even free lesson how to play this tune!! Awesome!!
Cheeky smile at 1:56 like “yeah lads, I could tie both of my shoes while playing this masterpiece” 🤣🤣🤣
Genius at work don’t disturb him !
John Mayer is one of the best! :-)
I love how he gave a tutorial at the end of the performance haha, this is really cool footage
I hear a bit of "Little Sur" in that solo. What a beast.
この人を数年前に埼玉のサービスエリアで見ましたw 今は大ファンだけど恐らく当時は誰も知らないでただ片腕に和彫りたくさん入った外人さんだと周りの人は思ってたんじゃ？俺は気づいてましたが話しかけませんでしたw
そんな貴重な体験が、すごすぎる笑笑
He's so awesome with the crowd
Amazing. Saw him before The Rolling Stones in Rome. He has stolen the show and made my trip to Rome worthwhile
That was an awesome performance. Loved the ending!
I have seen all now!
なんやこのバケモン
好き
マジで可愛い。
that solo makes me cry
WOW! John Mayer can fingerstyle like Chet Atkins/Tommy Emmanuel in his solo! That's amazing!
ベースラインかっこよ
And they say after that they had to take the guittar to the hospital to perform a cesary.
That last slap💦🫦🫦
John: What would you like to hear?
Man: Strawberry 🍓
He makes playing the guitar look so easy. This song is very difficult to play.
cool solo.
pretty damn cool
Extreme talent.
Amazing stuff, thanks for the share. Seems he was really enjoying himself too :)
私はこの現場にいました。兎に角🎸の音、感謝感激の講演だった｡
You know shits about to go down when John starts down tuning his guitar
That’s unbelievable
Never seen John this buff.
4:59 to 5:14 total tupac
He was on fire here! Damnit! If I could only sing and play the guitar like that! Lol! :)
omg he added a bit of suzanne vega's Tom's diner, into the guitar solo! that's freaking amazingg ! :D
He may not be the best. (but for me, he is among the best lol ya, I love him for sure) But he is the most interactive one with audience. I have never seen a guitarist taught the audience how he played during concert. lol
he is one of the best.....forbes listed him as one of the best guitarists and he has won upto 7 grammies
Love you john
Does he have the Guinness record for the most awesomeness yet?
日本語話すの可愛い！
まじで5年練習してもここまで歌いながら弾けない
まだまだ練習しないと
how tf does he make it look so easy. absolutely insane talent!
His hands being huge, really gives him a rythm advantage over the rest of us under 6’3 :(
What a bad ass. Damn
He's the Man!!!! Super
so he did end up going to Japan !
Pure genius!
Satisfied
lmao what a chill dude.
