I always wanted to start a thread about my favorite guitar player and probably favorite musician. If my sister never bought Any Given Thursday and Room for Squares, i would have never learned to play guitar. And even when he made Heavier things, i still went on to play his songs. Lalo na nung lumabas ang Continuum, where he showed another kind of "heavy" with his sound evolving further. And when he released "TRY!" with Pino Paladino and Steve Jordan, he introduced me to blues. Masyado na siyang madaming nagawa para sakin. In terms of style, he has influenced me and in terms of genre, he opened me to new sounds. Dati puro ROCK lang ang tugtugan ko ngayon mas lumawak. Jazz nalang di ko pa naeexplore pero masyado pang madameng kelangan matutunan sa Blues so i'll venture into jazz after i graduate nalang.

This is my side. I idolize John Mayer. I think he'd go very far in the blues-rock world and he'd grow old to be a legend like Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix or Jeff Beck(hehehe puro strat player noh?). Pero I want to hear your side my fellow forumites. Pabor ba kayo sakanya? do you like him? do you hate him or call him "baduy"? do you think he's lame or he sucks? sige na tell me. i'm so friggin' curious lang. hehehehhe ok lang kahet i-bash nyo siya. you have your opinion and i have mine.

Meron palang ganito! Can relate to everything!
Although di ko na gaano trip latest two albums nya, parang sobrang wala na blues element, siya pa rin #1 guitarist para sakin of all time. My life really changed when I heard continuum.

[chazkidlat]

15lang sya no? Coz he talks a lot.

Sissy boy.

I hope he makes more music or focus more on making music kesa magpaka boy band sa daldal

[paul_sigua]

Guys can I ask a question about john mayer's songs here?
if not pa-delete na lang po hehe

I'm having a hard time figuring out the odd time signature in John Mayer's version of XO (linked youtube for your reference)
at first i was thinking it's just 6/8th but it gets off beat if i just use 6/8th...
  help po

Bro, common time or 4/4 lang yung time signature nyan. I dont know why you think it's an odd time signature.

i agree. after Battle Studies, he got too much of the enlightenment from his rest and did a comeback from a different angle.

when Gitarakista27 and i started this thread, we thought that from the acoustic "boy-next-door" image, he'll continue with his "tattooed-bluesman" image. specially when he revealed his roots, the Blues. but then again. i am still a die hard fan.

yun lang si CaptainBackFire parin ang HARDCORE FAN!!! hehe..

It's 4/4. I study music.  Just count slowly.

Why do you think it's not 4/4? How are you counting?

Hi! may nakakaalam ba sainyo pano tugtugin yung last part ng "who did you think I was"? yung part na puro instrumentals lang. Kiniakapa ko kaso medyo hindi makuha nga tama.

mas killer sana if na-relic rin yung neck (near the neckjoint), headstock and the hardware. more "coffee" stains rin sana sa pickguard, pickups and knobs.
