He's not even showing all of his talent here. He's so gifted and a master of many styles. He can play damn near any style from shredding to finger picking. Probably the most well rounded guitarist out there.
I could watch John 5 shred all day long for hours! Gimme a cigar and a good scotch and enjoy the show on my Bose surround sound patio entertainment system!
I've been playing, listening, watching, loving, learning, but Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I'm sure there is no finer, natural talent than John 5. Now when I pick up my guitar it sounds and feels like I'm wearing marigolds.
I'm 46 yrs. old and I grew up listening to Iommi, Van Halen, Steve Vai., Malmsteem, and Glen Tipton. John 5 is definitely getting the baton and running with it. The generation of guitar icon is stepping up to the plate. Never change, dude!!

John is truely amazing. But John what ritual or sorcery did you perform to get that bass player and drummer. You all melt like a solid acid trip and are tighter than anything I've ever seen. Keep melting the brains of the masses.
Dude can play anything. It's so amazing. I don't much care for his original material, however, the fact that h can play so many songs just blows my mind. Plus, every interview, he just comes across as hella cool.
I discovered this video by accident and it turned me on to J5. I grew up with Van Halen, ACDC, and others so I've seen my share of great guitar players and J5 is right up there with them. His versatility is amazing and its obvious how much he loves to play. What a talent.
It is really fun to watch John 5 play this stuff and so cool that he seems to do it because he loves it. Doesn't matter what the size of the crowd, he is always on point. Simply amazing.
Wrong time to be out of town, would've loved to seen the show. John 5 is a once-in-a-lifetime great, who is this good, I only saw him playing with some big shot dippy band. .They never let him loose, well he's loose now. Will definitely go see creatures with John anytime I can.
.....no just no lolol hes amazing but too many guitarists in the world that would run circles in many categories. i love an admit his multiple finger picking when he wants is stellar. a lot from his huge influence from watching hee ha with his dad. i love the guys playing but gotta be honest lol
to everyone in this comment. He is one of the greatest. the problem with the GREATEST is that really that is totally subjective. this is ART after all and to really judge one "artist" over another as the greatest i think is maybe going to far. I actaually like to think of people in my top 10. j5 would be in my top 10 with Jimi and SRV and buckethead and EVH and Satriani i am sure there are others but those are some of my favorites right now.
Insane talent, and a GREAT live show. I saw them at a larger venue with much better audio, and stage show. He was the OPENER, and I would SURELY pay to see them as a headliner!!
Damn John5 I'm really_ uckin glad I got the chance to meet you. Is there anything you can't do on your guitar, I think not. Love ya brother. Rob Elric Portland Oregon. Smokin John5.
Encore: a demand, as by applause, for a repetition of a song, act, etc... Encore medley by John 5: compilation of riffs and song excerpts that demand a repetition of a song, act, etc... ;-)
He is one of my idols , no one can touch him I studied him for years , Guthrie govan is another God like idol . Put him against any one and any genre of music and he seeks and destroys , saw him live with Manson and Zombie and this man real sold his soul to the devil . Blues obviously Stevie Ray and Robben Ford are the 2 God like idols .
The f****** greatest guitarists ever lived p... That will be
Eating a motley Crue s*** but I guarantee you have. You have always have a following what you did. B****.
Bust off. You are one of the greatest guitarists never lived. I totally respect your f****** ass
10/10 will listen again

A John 5 comes pre-programmed with all guitar riffs in the known universe, plus some from other universes.
xD
I’ve had a ‘’perma-smile’’ cramping my face ever since reading your comment. Cheers, mate…

That is the best one I have heard. Wow! Talent!
He nailed so many great riffs and solos. Pure talented musician!

John 5 is incredible
This reminds me of lunchtime in high-school band room jamming with my friends...very cool
The man rocks a Tele like nobody else \m/
And the Iron Maiden "Run To The Hills"/"The Trooper" fake out was great.
So glad I wasnt the only who caught that....it was fucking awesome

Guitar Level? God.
Um Homem Zangado I couldn't have said it better myself.
I'm a guitarist and I reckon he's the best in the world.... all styles considered. Here's a tip though....never leave a drink on an amp....
