I'm just waiting for VMPs Blue Plaid Pressing of "More Noise and Other Disturbances" before I re-up my membership.
I do love "Dr. D".

for the record. BTCS is a great record. I will die on the first 3 DMB (4 including TLS) records being awesome hill.

This is correct.

Certainly this type of music is not for everyone and Mayer due to his own obnoxious behaviors a decade or so ago is a pretty easy target. But this is not a horrible pick.

His "behaviors" have nothing to do with how I feel about this record. I'm not a fan of "cancel culture," especially when it's based on statements made a decade ago. I am just offended by how bad his music sounds to my ears. I'm glad others are able to enjoy it. VMP still blows.

I did say "this type of music"!

Look I get soft bluesy rock is not everyone's cup of tea.

Yeah the thing with Mayer is that it isn't blues and it doesn't rock. It's just soft

When I was in grade 10 my friend was interning at Sony Music and gave me a demo tape of a hot new band from Seattle that he'd smuggled out of the offices... it was Pearl Jam.
I thought the name was VERY dumb.
Still do.

If you really want to see dumb band names, go to 120 Minutes archive, between 89-93 or so. There's some terrible names of great bands. Sorry, Ned's Atomic Dustbin.

[spilledleche]

he also justified it by claiming his label at the time (V2) was small and he felt this would be of benefit to them (who cares this much about their label?!)

That small scrappy V2 that was owned by VIRGIN...gfy Moby

 

[spilledleche]

If VMP followed up John Mayer with Dave Matthews, that would be too funny. (Not a Dave hater, for the record.)

With the amount of Dave Matthews fans who've been wanting this for over 20 years, this would be the biggest seller in VMP history

I stan for God Fodder - got a T-Shirt with the CD when I bought it on release day and I wore it until it disintegrated.
If anyone has an OG pressing of God Fodder and wants to sell it...hit me up.

 

[Ghost]

Gonna go ahead and commit N&G social suicide and say I for one am enjoying this essentials pick and find it to be a far more enjoyable listen than Belladonna, that to me was just an unremarkable bore. With that being said, I love you all, don’t hurt me.
