You know, I just can't get into Mayer because I think he's such a fricking pecker-head. His comments and his target audience (mostly teenage girls for a lot of his music) make it really hard for me to take him seriously and enjoy, which is a shame. I get the feeling there's some good music in there, but I can't bring myself to listen to him.
Eric, I feel kind of the same way. He seems like a totally arrogant guy, at least the few times where I've seen him being interviewed. It makes it harder for me to enjoy his music when I know that he acts this way. It turns me off to the whole thing. Maybe he will grow out of it someday, get over himself, and just play music.
