She has been doing some riding. I've seen pics of her out on the bike with the Discovery Channel team on the photo-op rides.

 
Nothing wrong with John Mayer. The Beastie Boys also won a Grammy, I see nothing wrong it. Many artists you don't like will win a Grammy, as well as ones you do like.
 
Daughters is like the worst song on the cd - in my opinion. If he was going to get best song of the year, I could have chosen another song off that cd.

IDIOTS!
 
You obviously don't know a good guitar player if he smacked you in the head with his guitar. 😛 A bad ass guitar player, a bad ass song writer, and every thong wearing teenage girl's dream. Surprised he's not yours too 😛

BTW, he played the Crossroads Guitar Festival w/ Clapton, BB King, and a bunch of the other world's greatest living guitarists. You just have sh!t taste in music. 😛

I never said he's not a good guitarist. CC Deville (of Poison) is actually a very competent guitarist as well, but that doesn't mean his band doesn't suck ass.

 
other grammy winners who suck worse than JM:

maroon5 (one song is not worthy of best new artist, sorry)
Los Lonely Boys (who?)
Britney Spears (even though I have Toxic on my ipod)
Kish Kash (who?)
Rod Stewart (he should get a lifetime achievement award for sucking... and he dumped stacy's mom, idiot)
Bruce Springsteen (i didn't even know he had a new album last year)
Velvet Revolver (bought the CD, wished I hadn't. The guy in the next cube actually told me to never, ever play it again after the suffering through the songs with endless screaming)
Brian Wilson (bought Smile, don't get it. Some of the songs are just horrible, but every reviewer couldn't stop praising the guy as the second coming.)
Wilco (I can't name one song or even their style of music other than "alt-college-rock")
Black Eyed Peas (re-recorded "lets get retarded" for NBA commercial and won a grammy for it... please)
Tim McGraw
Dixie Chicks
Bill Clinton (best spoken work album)
Zach Braff (garden state)
 
On a side note....does anyone else think Kanye West won just so he would STFU and stop crying about how he got robbed at one of the previous award shows?

Actually Maroon 5 album was good!
 
John Mayer sings about the same fscking thing in every single fscking song he fscking sings. His music sucks.

So you've listened to all 4 of his albums and all of his songs?

Hell no, only 11 year old girls who sit in their rooms and cry all night would want to do such a thing.

:roll:

Different strokes for different folks. People could equally make fun of whatever music you like
 
I don't listen to music. Weakens the blood. A true badass enjoys only the sound of the ass kickings he constantly gives.
 
I only like Mayer's covers. He's a great guitarist. But how he manages to win Grammys for craptacular songs like "Daughters" or "Your Body is a Wonderland" is beyond disbelief.

On second thought, seeing Maroon 5 and Velvet Revolver on the list of winners makes it seem more plausible.
 
So how many actual musicians have come in here to bash JM? I'm a classically trained musician and I think he's very talented. I also like the "Daughters" song. So go away, trolls.:disgust:

"If I Ain't Got You," by Alicia Keys; "Jesus Walks," by Kanye West; the Tim McGraw country song "Live Like You Were Dying," written by Tim Nichols and Craig Wiseman; and the Hoobastank song "The Reason," written by two members of the Los Angeles rock band.

I'd pick John Mayer too out of all those.

:thumbsup:
 
My wife was watching that crap last night when I came up for bed and I happened to catch part of a sucktacular U2 song. Man, they blow hard now.

My wife has a John Mayer CD. I can't even listen to it it sucks so bad.
