    The fact that John Mayer himself calls this song a party trick makes me feel a whole lot better about how I don’t for the life of me understand how he plays it

      Ive known the chords for years but have avoided that godforsaken right hand pattern like the plague. Until about 5 days ago when decided to face it head-on. I can happily say that after several hours of practice, i can play it correctly... at half speed😭

      Not really, I'm sorry, I know I'm gonna take some heat for this but . . . don't jump on me yet, guys ok. Because I've watched him live - the guy is named Corey Heuvel (look him up) his version of this is stunning. Go watch him and you tell me. Mayer/SRV/Hendrix/Clapton to mention a few, all great performances. He is so underrated it's sickening.

Now I am shocked to see him playing, dancing, and improvising even better at the same time. He is truly one of the best guitarists of all time. He will still be remembered long after he is gone.

While he was playing dancing in a burning room I was overcome with a sense of gratitude for being there in person and just being so happy to be alive and witnessing his talent.

      I think the most important part of his legacy as a guitarist is that he chose to take the pop music route and made it cool as fuck to the point where dedicated guitarists were trying to replicate his pop riff.

As far as guitar solos go, he has transitioned to a folk jazz genre of stellar caliber music."Neon" has undergone a stunning metamorphosis into a world class song good enough for the Jazz Festival of Montreux.You have honed your craft and the fans are wild about it. So many great opportunities will come for you in the near future.Much success, love and blessings!

    One of the things that makes him unique is that this song was on his first independent album ' Inside want's out ' in 1999 before he signed with Columbia and today it would sit right along beside the songs on mostly any of his albums, and not only Neon but also Comfortable and Victoria, imo.
    It's also great to go back and watch some of his earliest performances solo and with Clay Cook and also Clay's solo renditions of some of the songs that they shared.

    Wow. This performance is fire 🔥. Amazing!!! In Las Vegas few days John played Neon so relaxed and free, like it’s super easy. It was cool. But this performance… it’s really great.
    Around 15 years ago I remember, how one my friend gave me some records of John and said, listen this. I listened few songs, and I didn’t find nothing interesting. And I thought… He is just a singer. Like most pop guitar players, nothing special. And forgot about him. And then, later, I saw project of Herbie “Possibilities”, with John. And I started to think, that I was wrong) I started to listen every record that I have,every song. And I found it. It was acoustic, only guitar and vocal, no band. I remember I heard only first chord! It was something like C13#9. And I realize that John is not just singer. Hi is MUSICIAN. And from that moment I big fan of John, big fan of Neon.
    I had dream to hear Neon live. I didn’t expect that my dream will come true. But it happened few years ago. It happened like magic. I mean situation happened like this, that it happened. I feel like I’m crazy about this song. But I really love it. Little bit jazzy.

      Hi Sir - I'm reaching out to you because I want you to go see a guy named Corey Heuvel - he has done over a hundred livestreams and I've been there for most of them. He is too humble to promote himself. As a guitar player you will see and hear how much this young guy has put into his performance. Mayer/Clapton/Beatles/SRV/Hendrix and more. He has recorded several CD's, soon to release his new one. Go watch him for a while and tell me I'm wrong.... I like John Mayer - he is an icon, but as most performers know, always look over your shoulder to see who is coming up behind you. It's Corey !

That intro, solo and slight change in the chorus was something to behold! I can't wait til I can either start figuring this out or til someone else figures out how to do this and shares it with the rest of the world! 🕊

    I can think of no lovelier musical artist and entertainer to comment on than John Mayer! He's the bomb and so personable with his audiences and fans, taking time to fill in the blanks with truly interesting details about the songs he writes and plays, as was the case with Neon. You gain a fresh perspective of his music, and fall in love with him and his music all over again, and again, and again. God, please keep John and his music entertaining us forever. His fans all love him so! He is forever A Genius, A Master, The Man and THE KING ❣💡🌟💎👑
