Mayer Is A Weiner?

John Mayer has always, always spoke his mind whether people wanted him to or not. Most of the time what he says perks up a hack's ears, as it's far from the standard cock-and-bull answer artists give.

But last week in a Playboy interview, Mayer not only crossed the line but demolished it while comparing a certain member on his body to former KKK member David Duke. From there it just went downhill fast, using racial slurs which would probably make Andrew Dice Clay do a double take at what was printed.

Realizing the proverbial crapstorm that was to come in light of the interview, Mayer tearfully offered up a mea culpa while onstage during a Nashville concert. And with his band -- the majority of whom are African American themselves -- were supporting him, it seems that Mayer has a helluva long road to hoe before getting back on his feet again.

When he plays and keeps his mouth shut, he's pretty good, often described as a mini-me Slowhand in reference to Eric Clapton. He probably summed it up best on his twitter account after the incident, stating that there were or are no rehab centers for assholes.
