Default John Mayer

went to the John Mayer concert last night in Grand Rapids Michigan. I started listening to him awhile ago when his Room for Squares album came out, and am a big fan of his album Heavier things. I never really listend to his latest album Continuum til right before the concert, and I though its a much different sound than his first cds, it is awesome. The show he put on was great, and for a white boy he's got soul.

Yep, I love him too...

Did he do Belief or Slow Dancing in a Burning Room? Those are my two faves on Continuum.

Vultures is one of my top 3 favorites of ANY of John Mayer's songs, but it's not new to Continuum. It was on the TRY! CD first. My fave song on that particular CD has got to be Another Kind of Green, though... great song.

On the contrary, PP... most of the guys I know in the country music industry think that John Mayer is one of the more talented guitar players out there. Andy Griggs is an example... he's got a lot of respect for the guy.

By the way, I don't find John Mayer attractive AT ALL. He's too pretty for me.

He can play but his voice makes me want to go deaf.

I went with my gf if that clears it up for you pillow pants, it was a christmas present from her family for us, but I do really enjoy John Mayer because he is one hell of a talent. It was a wide range of people there, and it was a damn good time. Mat Kearney played before Mayer, and he even put on a good show.

I have a hard time watching him... he makes out with the microphone.

I do love his music, though... great songwriter.

I really like Mayer's music as well. Did anyone see the skit he did on Chapelle's Show? One of the funniest three minutes ever.

Default Mayer....

Great guitar player, very good cd Continuum. He just won a couple Grammy awards, he's about to start a new tour, and by the way he's banging Jessica Simpson! Alot of positives for Mr. Mayer lol!
