John 5 Token Lounge Sept 2024 opening song

[@aliciafranco5704]

John 5 is LEGEND❤

[@MrLifesavers1]

Yes! He has to be one of the best active guitarists on the planet right now. He played mandolin, banjo and bass at his show as well. Best ive ever seen and Ive seen them all, Keith, Jimmy, Pete, Eric.

Incredible

[@MrLifesavers1]

Yes, I was in awe, it is effortless for him. He said he played guitar so much growing up that his left hand is actually larger than his right hand. All from playing. i didn't hear a squeal or a bad note the entire time. He also played mandolin, banjo and some bass.

[@REZNAP]

@@MrLifesavers1 I appreciate the info!

[@davidgerlach1132]

I wish I never graduated high school, too.

[@Gitfiddle]

I don’t hear reverb or delay. Super dry signal. You can get away with that when you never make mistakes. Amazing.

[@MrLifesavers1]

I agree totally. He had just a couple Boss pedals. Clear as a bell, but loud as a airplane engine. He is one of those guys that will sound like him no matter what rig he using. There is a video of him playing a Hello Kitty kids guitar and still sounds like him.

A song has lyrics ! Nice solo 👍

[@MrLifesavers1]

No vocals the entire concert. Extraordinary guitar player.

[@christopher7803]

To quote one of the great Mick Jagger lyrics in one of my favorite songs by him and his band, "I hope we're not too overdrive or too satanic", Monkey Man, The Rolling Stones, Let It Bleed album.

[@jimyounger9490]

He was here in Fargo Friday night and I couldn’t go because I’m broke. Pathetic I know.

[@joseteem8032]

The tele god john5 forever

[@MrLifesavers1]

I know right? A pretty basic Tele w/humbuckers through EVH heads with just a few old school Boss pedals.

[@ctnicetune141]

Nice!

[@randyp5070]

I don't know any John 5 songs!

[@MrLifesavers1]

He has several "albums" out over the last 20 years. "Season of the Witch" is his opener.

[@williamapolinar1018]

I wonder if he ever listened to Adrian belew ?

[@MrLifesavers1]

He was so cool and down to earth when I talked to him. He doesnt do drugs or drink, he's a vegan, had his chihuahua with him, he said palying complex music is his release.

[@Tommyguitargibson]

What is it just him and a drummer 🤔🤣🤣

[@MrLifesavers1]

Yes, he had a looper so he would play part, lock it in and then play over that. Totally amazing. He even turned the knob on the pedal with his foot.

[@Tommyguitargibson]

What is it just came in the drummer 🤔🤣🤣

[@MrLifesavers1]

His tech played bass for the Motley Crue set. I have a video of that too. Was awesome.

[@Tommyguitargibson]

I'd have to say totally a rip-off I would never pay to see some guy play with a looper I did once with Buckethead and I wanted to tell him what an idiot he was

[@Tommyguitargibson]

John 5 is not Allan Holdsworth and far from it okay pal

[@dannycostello3129]

His guitar is way to high doesn't look fock n roll. Great player though.
