You know a great guitar player when he enjoys perform his own music. And John Mayer goes nuts every time he plays Gravity.

[@Sterkan93]

Allan Santos lopes He really does!

[@roshanacoy5303]

Gravity reminds us who we are

[@christianmairodrigues8513]

Surely so! One can unmistakably notice that! 😊👏👏

[@WeTalk440]

As a guitar player, I admire this guy more than I should.

[@s1mon8ratt96]

How can you admire John Mayer to much?! Have you seen his guitar lessons, those are incredible

[@hennessy6890]

if you admire him too much, I can't even begin to imagine how much girl guitarists do....

[@helenbrown7440]

Your profile picture and name combination made me cackle

[@donhanlon7121]

This extraordinary show deserved an official release💎🎸👌☘️

[@lucasamontenegro]

I was there and I cried in that solo, because during the entire concert John seemed a little nervous and kind of worried about the limited time to perform, but in that moment he spread his wings and was at his best. As a guitar player myself i recognize the moment when music takes over and you are only a channel for something bigger come to existence, you are only yourself, and yet everyone else at the same time... A moment like this makes a whole life worth living.

[@ChrysthianChrisley]

Também tava lá no dia. Lembro que fiquei perplexo, pois nunca tinha escutado. Virei fã desde então. Catártico.

[@LotrCollection]

This is why Brazilians say “Come to brazil” to every musician 👏🏽👏🏽 best crowd. Great job Mr Mayer dropping the guitar “let the gravity do its work” before the final solo.

[@aleclemente]

The truth is that in Brazil we do more than simply enjoy the show, we force ourselves into be part of the show

[@joshualee7727]

Bucketlist: Go to a John Mayer concert in Brazil. Holy crap this beat the Los Angeles crowd by far

[@marcelovp17]

Usually shows in Brazil beats some of the big world cities shows. IDK why. I can recall a great David Guetta show at Guarapari (a small beach city at a small brazilian state) and another one at Cape Town at Ultra festival that sucked ass. I don't know, I guess brazilian crowds make the shows as well. But german and russian crowds, especially in rock/metal shows, are hard contestants too

[@derekbravo7811]

Novo Tom good or bad?

[@bertric23]

I am not a Brazilian, but Brazil have the most wonderul music festival crowd ever. They enjoy anyone who plays.

[@bekkaboo90]

Ohio shows are close in vibe tbh. Dead and co or just John.

[@gabrielroloff_]

As one of this screaming brazilians, my guess is that we are so noisy cuz our actual pop music here sucks in many ways

[@daudrumapea9175]

07:26 What a bound and chemistry from the band especially drummer, man. He is waiting john to get the notes. Insane performance!!

[@marcelomilen]

Brazil ROCKS

[@MariaEduarda-nw7oc]

I Love you SO Much !

[@rachelwallisky1429]

That guitar is so worn and well loved and well played, and I love that so much.

[@GJSsongsmith]

Rachel Wallisky ....it’s a fender custom shop Stratocaster ....it’s made to look like that at the factory but still cool 😎! X

[@benjaminmyles5886]

That guitar was around when John was a glint on his dads prick he’s got money and that sir has an opening price range of around 100,000 US DOLLARS ask any rock star any thing pre 1970

Gus Bus nah i think L.A version is superior to basically 98% of songs ever made.

Cristobal Ordonez yeah man, the L.A version still the best

For all of you guys, I personally feel like THIS is literally the best version EVER! It's PURE PERFECTION! Perhaps better than the LA version too... 👇 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJSac5SQmrWsl6c

[@thomascorneliomusic]

That crowd shocked me when they starting singing so loud, wowoowowow.

[@lulcy]

i loveeeeeee you john

[@LTor4]

After this solo, I confirmed something what I already knew: this guy is the best composer, guitarist and the complete artist in the world in this time!! COME BACK TO BRAZIL, JOHN... You're the best!! :D

[@iMatheusDuarte]

I remember this day, I was in the building in front of the festival, I went down the street and went to the festival gate, and you were playing, unfortunately I didn't have money to enter the festival and I stayed listening from outside, but I thank you for adding musical value to my life. ♥

[@lisaverbosky4967]

Never gets old!!! 😍😍😍

[@PANICONLINE01]

Definitely one of the most beautiful performances of Gravity!

[@lexi-op5vk]

I love this crowd, here and in other videos they are so excited and happy, they cry, they scream, they're loving what they're watching and you can feel that

[@dudapedrosa]

Best show in my entire life.

[@lucasmontenegro8938]

Some storytelling: in this day he was the opening act for Bruce Springsteen, but it was John's first time ever in Brazil, so a lot of fans flew from every corner of the country to watch his show. After he finished his performance, a huge part of the audience went home since some people were standing there waiting for John under a very hot sun for 10 hours or so. Afterwards Bruce did an amazing show (as usual) of about three hours that pissed off the organization because it wasn't supposed to last that long, but for a way smaller audience than John, although it was still like tens of thousands of people. Some people even argued that John should be the final act of the day, but I personally think that Bruce being the opening act for John would be a little too much lol

[@alexsmartins]

Lucas Montenegro exatcly! And I was one of those people going home after John's performance. Seeing almost half of the audience walking out of the front stage was really weird and funny at the same time.

[@matheusmedeiros6895]

I was there that day just for John Mayer, I didn't even watch Springsteen's concert. Right after Mayer's concert I left Rock in Rio. Last year I was there in Jeunesse Arena too. Unforgetable moments

[@EmilyNunes]

I was there just for John too

[@laynienicky]

I stayed 13 hours without going to the bathroom, under the hot sun, just to see all 4 concerts and I don’t regret. It was amazing, and best part was that touched Springsteen’s hand and arm because of Mayer’s fans that left early LOL. Good times 🥰

[@zedlepellin]

What a legendary performance and what an incredible crowd...... A-Mayer-Zing !!!! 2020

[@TheCimbals]

Steve jordan is one of the most amazing drummers i've ever seen. and Gravity played for him is another story...but Aaron Sterling is so so good! with a capital "G" the sound of the snare is from another planet...Good for Him...

5:58 minutes in is the exact moment I start to imagine what other things those fingers could do
