Update on John Mayer and His Chick Appeal
A while back, I wondered if John Mayer was just for girls. Last night your man was on Much More Music (Canada’s VH1, I think), doing an Intimate and Interactive session, (Canada’s VH1 Storytellers, I think). In short, he played some songs in a kind of theatre-in-the-round setup and then responded to universally inane questions from interviewer and adoring masses alike. He is so Dave Matthews Lite.
You know what? There was hardly a man in the ground. Well, I saw one guy, and boy did he look sheepish. It must be a little frustrating (well, aside from all the tail he must get) for Mr. Mayer. I think Dave Matthews attracts an older, equally-gendered crowd, while Mayer gets a ton of 16 to 20-year-old women. I suspect it’s got to do with how he’s been branded (all sulk and bedroom eyes).
On an unrelated note, I see that Tears for Fears is getting back together. That was fairly inevitable, eh?
