SO glad Mayer overcame his ass personality from early mid 2000’s. Now we get to enjoy an awesome guitar playing with an amazing passion for music. Now it’s joyful to listen to interviews and watch him play live. Thanks for the video! That line up sounds legendary. Gonna looks for tickets in a few!

[@chillywilly934]

Keep these interviews going Sammy...They're AWESOME!! Thank you!!

[@TeleCarlitos]

Cool interview with Mayer and Satch. Would love them together.

[@seichan-kyoto]

Sammy can be any singer in any band.

[@Wadey1960CS]

I grew up with Sammy...was inspired to play guitar by Joe....and Listening and watching John is my Zen place. Such LEGENDS, so thankful to be able to be around when they were. Much Love and admiration to all three of you.

[@JonWRowe]

I graduated from Berklee. What's funny is what's known as the "Berklee curse." The best players like JM tended NOT to graduate. Rather spend a little time there and move on. Often they get picked up for gigs while at Berklee. That happened to Steve Vai with Zappa and Di Meola with Return to Forever. But I graduated, lol.

[@georgew1522]

Maybe you'll be the one to break the curse 😎

[@JonWRowe]

LOL. I graduated in '95 and am now a tenured full professor of law and business at the community college level. I went straight to law school after Berklee. Maybe when I retire from this gig I'll make it big as a second career. Incidentally, I work with Pearson publishers (they market their textbooks to us) and none other than Andy West, bassist for the Dixie Dregs, works or worked for them (in an IT capacity), because it's so hard to sustain a good living in music even if you are good enough to play for Steve Morse. I am disappointed, though, that our paths never crossed. @@georgew1522

[@agharta42]

to be real possibly cause they were too busy playing and jamming than focusing on academics. and you're in the yt comments on their video w sammy hagar, pathways in life yaknow. maybe you can be a music teacher at a nice little community college somewhere

[@JonWRowe]

This is a little "insider baseball" information. My community college has a music program and there is one full time person who coordinates it. And I am glad I am not that guy. I'm much happier doing the "law and business" stuff where I teach. I am also happy to jam with the music folks over there. @@agharta42

[@yammak2004]

Hey man there's nobody here to impress you don't have to lie. I feel bad for you.

[@Defjitzu]

let him answer the questions Sammy..geez

[@nickhughesorlando]

What’s funny is in the beginning he says “we’re gonna let HIM do the talking” hahaha

[@soundzznetwork]

Right???

[@FilipeDiogo49]

To me.... Joe Satriani is THE guitar player of this earth. Hendrix and Van Halen had massive impact and importance in the history of the instrument and how its played, but nobody inspires me to play like Joe Satriani does. Joe is a MASTER of the instrument, his approach towards the instrument and his knowledge and attitude are unique. I love Sammy, great cool dude to be in a band with, but Joe to me is like a modern Mozart

[@dylankopff5062]

I agree

[@CrazyCloudZen]

You should listen to Pat Metheny ;)

[@94SexyStang]

never cared for Satriani too much, he's just a technical shredder guy...not my style. I like some of his songs, but he just doesn't have the soul of Eddie or Mayer or many other artists. If you've been playing guitar for a long time like me, you'll get it. Don't get me wrong I like some of Satriani's stuff, but I can think of SO many players I would put above him!

[@StringTips-gr2ig]

Exactly... Satch is the god of guitar gods

[@tourhead]

Very cool. Thanks for posting!

[@MikeJBlues]

2 awsome guitar players and singers. Know your guitar, and know where the sounds are on it... school can't teach you how to hear. Love you both. 🎸 🎸

[@Runark79]

Where can i watch the concert?😎

[@activese]

Gold: 1:41 It's what you make of it.

[@robf4639]

How the hell are these guys the ages that they are?

[@thebomontellano4996]

Amazing interview 🎉

[@nick28476]

crazy to think that JS is almost 70

[@dylankopff5062]

Greatest ever? Probably. Greatest song writing on guitar I've ever heard no one takes you on a journey like satch

[@RobertMJohnson]

he's great but not the greatest. Vai is a better player than Satch and a more creative player than Satch (for starters)

[@94SexyStang]

there's SO many guitarists I would put above satriani....he just has No soul, there's more to playing than technical shredding, it's gets boring.

[@JasonNoto]

5:45 Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart you just got to poke around

[@ExileonBrockSt]

🇨🇦👽🎸👍🏼

[@jesusislukeskywalker4294]

🚬😎 how cool

[@andrewzenn1719]

Great

[@lornajames192]

❤

[@user-cw1ez3rh5u]

this is about 2-3 years old I think?

[@ultimatedriversofmachinery]

“And let him do the talking” ok bud

[@deanmoise4036]

All Sammy did was interupt him! I really wanted to hear what Mayer had to say... Sammy needs to learn that if he's going to do these interviews, then he needs to not make it about him again!

[@94SexyStang]

get over yourself clown, that's how the REAL world works!

[@cheneyrobert]

😎😎😎👌🥂

[@jmvmike]

I forgive Taylor Swift for using John to advance her career. She was young and needed the money. Y’all should cut her some slack.

[@soundzznetwork]

What about Katy Perry and Jennifer Aniston?

[@cicada6x]

Is Joe satriani a Vampire? No way he looks 67

[@Hhllbb2476]

1st neg comment ever. Interviewing someone with opaque sun glasses? Medical reason? Power trip? Seems off.

[@dionisioiacobelli6689]

Joe Satriani is the best guitarist of the three .

[@killslay]

I agree, and John is the best songwriter and Sammy is the best singer

[@bobdillon1138]

Different not best i personally think Mayer is a better blues player then Satriani.

[@94SexyStang]

satriani is overrated 1 trick pony....No soul. Mayer blows him FAR out of the war, any Real guitarist knows this, period!!!!

[@dionisioiacobelli6689]

That's your opinion like mine is .

[@bobdillon1138]

I like Mayer seems like a good dude he's a good blues rock player wasted in pop imho but just admit you do the pop shit because it pays well.

[@Spidouz]

Sure it pays, but also maybe because he likes it… not everyone has a disdain for pop music. I’m not ashamed to say I love making pop music, which is actually really hard if you want to make great pop music because it’s way harder to make something that will be loved by a majority of people, instead of making music for a niche. It’s easier to make experimental music and make it for a niche, it doesn’t even have to be liked by most people, just only few of them… Of course, there’s also bad pop music, but it’s no different in my view than people making bad rock, or bad blues, or bad funk, or bad rap, or whatever you want.

[@joefox9765]

Where did you get the name chicken foot? That is so lame. You should call the band Sammy & Satriani

[@Madakalim]

I never learn anything from Mayer. He is not groundbreaking. Satch on the other hand...

[@94SexyStang]

you are delusional......Satriani is a Technical 2 trick pony, NO soul......mayer can ACTUALLY play guitar with emotion, that's the Real world. The only clowns that think Satriani are impressive are 15 year old idiots that don't know any better, Period.

[@tdz69]

You can learn from everyone. Get out of your own ego and you’ll learn a lot. Clarity comes with open eyes…and ears

[@soundzznetwork]

Then I'm assuming you never tried learning his acoustic songs, like "Why Georgia". That rhythm is a mind bending exercise.

[@tdz69]

@@soundzznetwork forget learning….has this guy ever CREATED anything? lol. He hasn’t learned anything from Mayer. Well he hasn’t listened then.

[@1122stardust]

I don't care for Joe Satriani. Not unique at all. Too metronome all around. No edge. No sense if failure until success. Meanwhile EVH !!!!

[@94SexyStang]

100%!!!!.....any REAL guitar player knows this.....Satriani is a technical 2 trick pony...No soul..... Even Mayer blows him out of the water in my opinion, his solo's have So much more emotion.

[@94SexyStang]

Mayer is the BETTER guitar player, he has Soul and Emotion, any Real guitarist knows this....Period, End of Story..........Satriani is a boring technical 2-trick pony, it impresses idiots that don't play guitar and Don't know any better. Sorry but it's just the truth.

[@zendakk]

I know you're a troll but the randomly capitalized words give me brain damage.

[@kotchstevens2321]

Sammy's one of the few singers that sounds pretty much exactly the same as he did in the 80's. Most of the others r crocky/washed up/cant reach most of the notes & sound dreadful.

[@johnpandolfino8663]

Like that analogy....like a batting cage.....still think he's a poser

[@liminal6823]

Fun fact: Sammy Hagar sucks 👈😃
