Damn, son. We’re fans of John Mayer fans here at Manolith. Not because he’s an incredible musician or he’s poignant, but because it seems like he’s convinced he is, and casually trying to play it off like he’s not. Only he can’t. Which is why he’s encouraging EVERYONE to do a technological cleanse for the new year.
Never mind the fact that he Twitters like a bored housewife, John Mayer wants you to swear off technology for a while. Which I think is an admirable proposition. In fact, I think it’s a perfectly reasonable request. Brilliant, even. Think of what the internet would be like if all the hardcore John Mayer fans left simultaneously. Twitter’s stock would plummet. Every copy of Twilight would sell out in the bookstores. Teenage girls would be roaming the street, searching for blood and new pop acts. Boring musicians might go out and listen to something that’s less wanky, with better lyrics.
In all seriousness, I hope each and every one of you have an amazing 2010. I think a survey was just released where 70% of people said that 2009 was a terrible year. The other 30% were crying too hard to fill out a survey. So let’s hope 2010 is better. Because if it’s not, the Mayans might’ve been right.
You can find Mayer’s announcement on his website.
