I've posted this before, but about the time Mayer put out his very first record and just after he won an open mic/songwriting thing at Eddie's Attic in Atlanta, he was playing at another venue here. He threw a shit fit and started yelling at the young, female bartender because the 'green room' didn't have the brand of bottled water he requested.
The 'green room' in question is 10x6, no door, one wooden bench nailed to the wall. It's a fucking closet..with no door. More than two people and it is full. He treated her like shit and he was a NOBODY at the time. Prior to that, he had been taking tickets at the door of Eddie's. A friend of mine tells me all the time, "When people show you who they are, BELIEVE them." Takes a big person to yell at a 21 year old girl because he didn't get his preferred brand of water. David Bowie played an unannounced show at this same room around that time and was gracious as hell to everyone at the venue. Fuck Mayer.
