I am going through a phase right now that I love the clear acoustic sound. I guess this is why I love martins right now. Gonna buy one soon, really soon :wink:

john smokes dave and he is pretty darn famous...if he doesn't really screw up, he'll have a stronger career than Dave's hands down.

i don't think john mayer will ever be as big as dave or the dave matthews band..i don't even know how you go about arguing that. proposterous.

yeah, DMB is the 3rd richest rockstars. Only behind STONES and Macartney. well back when the poll was taken, I am sure they are mcuh higher know. I dont think John will get that high if keeps writing the same songs

I dont know about that. Talent-wise, probably. But stronger career than Dave's? (Keep in mind I'm not implying strength of career has anything to do with talent) I think youre just being the devil's advocate here, cause unless your definition of career is different than mine, there's no way that makes any sense. DMB has been touring for over a decade, and theyve been one of the top grossing $ acts for the past 4 or 5 years. As much as you'd like to see your boyfriend make it that big, youre kidding yourself if you think he's going to. :wink:
