who woulda thunk they'd finally release the official audio recording of this in 2023? glad they did! what an amazing performance.

When the best part of a show involving Zac Brown & John Mayer is a violin solo, you're a darn fine violinist

ZBB's guitarist, Clay Cook, helped write this song (NEON) with John Mayer, back in the late 90's, when they played together in a duet called the the Lo-Fi Masters in Atlanta. That's the connection here. Still brilliant they can work together.

I honestly can't find the words to say just how much I love both the guitar and the fiddle solo in this performance. They're both legitimately some of the absolute best of their kind I've ever heard.

all along the Neon watchtower

This is and the Live in LA performance of neon are probably my favorites now having seen this. That was KILLER

So much talent on stage, I would've exploded had I been there

great to see john being the guitarist for his own song

Man, once this man feels the grove he just dont stop on that guitar

WOW ZAC BROWN REALLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB MAKING JOHN MAYERS SONG NEON AN UP TEMPO BEAT. WOW, LOVE THIS SO MUCH

My two favorites.. Someone pinch me I'm dreaming

Would love to see these two on CMT Crossroads!!

Them All Along the Watchtower vibes, though.

I know mann.. Im a huge fan of his music. I've watched almost every single vid of him.. His old solos are badass too. but here you can see that he's just soooo controlled while playing this AMAZING solo. The thing is, every single solo is different too. He's my inspiration, and I think he's yours too. as a musician.

This was awesome. Such a cool groove, it reminds me of Jimi Hendrix's version of All Along the watch tower.

Heck yeah.. The world needs so much more of this! : )

I was there for John and this performance and it did not disappoint

One of the best JM jams I have ever heard!

How did that Violin not catch on FIRE during that solo?

never heard a violin player shred it up like that, definitely a fan. and yeah mayer is an absolute boss

What a great version!

this solo is just fucking awesome. i want the old John back.and i kinda feel im getting him

The only word I have for John’s solo is “FUCK” ,seriously the dude is an absolute fucking legend

Love the Stevie Wonder intro. This was very interesting. I like..

Part of his solo is all along the watchtower

if Hendrix made it to his 50's and he was sober it would probably sound a little like this.

Seriously... how good is john going to get??? I'm seeing all his 2012 performances and he's just doing all the solo's with ease and passion. I really wanna see what he has in store for us at his future shows. He's getting too good.

i wish i could have seen this!

This video reminds me of when John sat in on Maroon 5's - This Love. The difference being that here it's one of his own songs. KILLER!

i understand why zac is playing a simplified version of this song.... this song was hard as fuck for me to play at first :/

wunderschön auch auch auch :)

I fucking love John mayer

Wow.

John has always been the shit. Watch his old solos...he was more into doing experimental things but, still amazing.

Epic

This song is from his first CD ever. It's over 12 years old.

What a dude

Someone need to make a lesson of this solo and put it on youtube

Hearing Asturias was the last thing I was expecting.

this is wayyyy SRV. I love it.

lol the look on his face at 11:18 is like "I warned yall im the shit!"

is there an mp3 for this?

this had to have been incredible live. Jealous

i would shit myself if i saw both of them play. they are the only two people i listen to!!!

The funny thing is John's version so much better!

It's always been there, mainly off the record.

Anyone know what cords zac is playing??

I stopped listening to him for about a week, wont ever do that again :D

5:35 srv esque

This song is OK better the way John wrote it! John played a badass solo but the band pretty much made it sound like Dave Matthews Version of All Along The Watch Tower

I wonder if he just improvised that solo or he had it prepared

actually both songs are in the same tone, Cm but i don't remember listening to "All along the watch tower" with this rhythm :/ tell me if there's a version of that song with this rhythm

How can anybody hit dislike button!?

8:29

John got soo much more creative.

your sooo right!!! hes had alot of time to play guitar since his voice is screwed upp

He'll definately bring his old stye back. He just wanted to take a break from that and calm his o=style of music down a bit. His last albumn still kicked ass though!

02:55!

Is mayer not singing cuz his throat surgery or whatever it was?

@tristanfabriani i believe i owe you a beer my good man holy fuck! 2 of the best out there

what i meant was hes just being the guitarist

@alealejandro9696 dude dont dare compare born and raised to continuum.i expected john to improvise song that are on the born and raise record. nothing like continuum....and continuum is out of this world.

ok yeah mayer killed it, but the violinist??? purely amazing. not to mention mr. brown went pretty hard as well

Where can I buy this song?

he plays the guitar on all of his own songs...

And what's wrong with the Dave Matthews Band? I mean All Along the Watch Tower has been covered by so many people in so many different Genres, Its the song that keeps on giving

hahahaha or mayer versus every country artist

His vocal chords were probably still recovering.

i was thinking that it's a pitty that John doesn't sing. But then again it's should've been John mayer ft ZBB instead of the inverse...

man he wears that guitar on his chin

I guess..

I must say, i'm glad the mullets gone

He doesn't even need to sing

that violinist played a guitar solo on his violin, amazing
