John Butler Trio- Funky Tonight (Live at Federation Square) 

If you ask me, this was the best Trio :) He should bring these back :)

I love this performance because it's the ORIGINAL trio!! It's so sad to see the bassist and drummer gone :(

many thanks great great great

I started listening to this band like 10 minutes ago, and now, im hooked! I love this so much!

Haha john butler rock's He looks high out of this world in this video!

gonna see them in 2 months !!!! yay

I'm followin these guys for a next week month up the east coast, going alone bc none if my friends give good music a chance, it's going to be fucking epic, gunna get funky EVERY night

Love the distortion solo he does in this song, its brilliant!

"You are supercalofragaliceousexpeialadotious!" I Love it!

all around sick performance by everyone on stage and in the crowd and on earth and in space...and in the universe

saw them in november live at rams head...cant wait to see them again.....one of the best nights of my life

Soooo good !!!

That is some great bass.

Ever noticed that what ever session musician's play with John are AMAZING?

Legendary Trio! :]

john is the man

its the way the cameras and the lighting work together.

Best job in the world

Love this song! Just want more and more! Wish JBT would visit Sweden

I LOVE John!! he is just incredable in making my soul feel good.

Très bon morceau de John bleteur

OMG John Butler is fucking amazing, John Butler Trio was one of best things i discorvered when i was in Austalia, I havent heard anything but them since i got home, i'd travel back to AU just to see them live XD

nice song i long live JBT :P

This puts such a big smile on my face!

go see him in person and he'll change not only your opinion of him but possibly your life...his lyrics if you listen to them are extrodinary...i know that's my opinion but i've seen him in person 4 times now and he's by far the best i've heard

There is nothing better than JBT live. :)

i guess no guitarplayer in all the world comes close to the skills of john butler.. he is amazing!

This man is a contemporany new icon,like as Keith Richards, Clapton and Hendrix were in their time[...] And his band is very good too.

one of my fav songs of all time!

8 people need to get funky tonight

Lovely

Now this is a epic JAM session!

perfect!!! damn, was blown away

This song is fabulous!! It turns me crazyyyyy!!!

stupenda sei il mio idolo :)

I am talking for myself iff i am saying it must be everyones favorite haha Brilliance.

I'll see them in about 4 hours ;)

best trio since zz top

Greatest Aussie musician ever.. And yeah it is a 5 string, pretty sure its a stingray. But i beleive it is strung to a half an octave above the usual, Keep it up mate come visit us in broome again, i missed u ter other day =[

I love the fact that he is playing an acoustic guitar...But his setup makes it sound electric in parts....Looks funny...in a good way.

awesome rim solo!

What wouldn't I do to see them live...

Michaael and Shannon with John = Best Lineup ever

Fantástico. Um músico raro nos dias de hoje. É um deleite ouvi-lo e vê-lo tocar.

Now THAT's some eargasm!

fair point PhilHazen.

Awesome.

THIS IS A CRAZY SONG! :D

love u

Yeah... Now i'm definitely feeling Funky. Legen...Dary!

i love it how one of the tags is "amazing" :D

Yes, that really is a fullstop.

imagine what those hands can do in an electric!

A groovy song for a groovy New Year 2013

yea its crazy

Better they watch and dislike it than liking or disliking without even giving it a try.

@LSUsuperBuick I think its brilliant - It shows what you can do with Electro-Acoustic Guitars, and he's definatley different :)

@Ibanez3789 holy words, man. Holy, holy words. As a musician, I totally agree.

I agree with you Luke Jones

I don't like this arguing over who's the "best" guitarist in the world. Yes, John Butler is amazing, and he makes great music that reaches audiences all over the world. Jimi was revolutionary, and also an amazing guitarist. But music isn't a competition. As a musician myself, I can't stand this "who's the best" arguing. Just say that the music is great, that the musicians are talented and are good at doing what they love to do, and enjoy!

Yeah no offense, but this was imo the best trio to date. All soooooo skillful and amazing. :]

@FreeMan549 amen to that

John butler

holyshit

@randomshinythings so true

Nicky Bomba is the bomba!

@Ibanez3789 I used to think the Edge is the best guitar player. Now I think he's friggin good at what he does. So is Butler, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Satriani.. they're all among my favorites. Still, I don't consider any of them better then the other. So yes, I guess you're right, it's not a competition.

Thanks Randomshinythings! But actually I wondered where he performed in Antwerp, like blokhut73^^ said.

@lespaul817 Yes, and not just 1 night. Or 2... Many a nights have been spent watching JB on youtube... and it's never wasted ;D

Holy fuck

Is watching this video 15 times in a row a bad thing?

i bet he loves the bong

@beardown091 I have been to see him many times I loove his music but was just expressing an opinion about the simplicity of his lyrics- however fair doos and all points taken from above.

@lespaul817 man, i'm with you...

@Ghraladean good answer!!!!!

9 people just don't get the funky tonight!

@sapila28 soo good

I wonder how they came up with the name for this song.

@m4rth4 thanks

Some people are just naturally good sadly... I've been playing for 10 years and feel exactly the same lol

@LSUsuperBuick And are you the ultimate decider of what sounds "cool" and what does not? Everyone's got their own idea of what cool is

@kingfranckribery The name is Michael Barker... Look him up.

That's crazy. I mean not that crazy. But still haha thanks. :)

super...i tak tez mozna grac na akustycznej gitarze...;-)

Fuckin ingredigood

Federation Square in Melbourne. Duh.

แน่นอนจิง

Goddamn, hes totally stoned!

@lespaul817 No jokes, your true.

ibanez is R I G H T !!!!

bass solo. i came.

@Ibanez3789 although.. i would like to say, that John butler doesnt get enouhg recognition for his guitar skills, although i know he wouldnt care about that, he is all about the message he is trying to get across and stuff...

First 20 seconds in i thought Jimi Hendrix had resurrected.

@Gehvoy687 actually its not the ORIGINAL trio... this was at least the third lineup JBT has had.

check out micheals (the drummer) new band swamp thing there briallant

the drummer...

how can u disliske this song?

@lespaul817 lol dangit it's 2:30 now

are all these Federation Square clips off a DVD?

@ITipCowsWorldWide Well he still needs an amp
