Defamation

I'm going to finally do it.
Because i was just floating around the Mraz board and found a funny photo, and this affords me the perfect opportunity to be insulting.

But before... i have to put the bunny/pancake thing up [also on his board] because it's just really random and really funny.

so... on with the show.
You know him as... the voice of god, word-master supreme... the guy that does those funny videos [i.e. the huge-breasted chica with an even huger basket of eggs... the bank robbery (you and i both)] and also the guy that covered(?) one of Bright Eyes' Songs [Kathy with a 'K' = Love is Real]

All fun is had by all.

His old stuff kicks so much more ass [0%, Rand McNally, Spinning, After an Afternoon, etc.] but overall, he's doing well in the music biz.

I was a huge fan until he pulled the emo-douchebag musician bullshit on me. Well.. not on me, but I got a really hearty taste of it.

If you remember... there was a post somewhere awhile ago about a love triangle between some artist chic, solo-bassist dude [and friend? i'm not sure right now...i think he's not liking me so much at the moment...], Seth Horan and Mr. Mraz, himself.

The quick skinny?:
Girl meets boy. [Jason]. - in a bar... stay up all night talking about how...
Girl has other boy. [Seth]
Boy thinks he can be better than other boy. [Alpha-male syndrome]
Girl gets to choose.
She chooses first boy [Seth].

But the second boy [Mraz] still keeps tabs on said girl.
Or did... i'm not sure he does anymore, because he's with hottie musician princess Tristan Prettyman. Love her.

And i tracked him down. Literally... took me, two clicks of the mouse. This wasn't some sort of thorough FBI investigation:
Anyone with half a brain and enough sense of his music, logo [all over fucking everything] and road journal, it wasn't hard.

So when i sent a friendly e-mail:

Is this Jason? If yes... do i get a prize?
haha
Just wanted to say hi. Hope you're doing well."

and then recieved panicked e-mail from Seth saying something like --

"i don't know what you said to him, but he's not happy! Please don't ever write him again! he's very upset"

--along with an e-mail from Jason saying,

-- "Nope... No Jason here... Sorry!":

This bitch got mad!


[my e-mail was really offensive and threating, huh?]

Granted, he has no way of knowing that I've grown up around musicians, have dated them and now work with them and i have no interest at all in stalking/setting up a shrine for him in any form... but jesus! Get over yourself..

I blew it off, but after a week or so, i was just so annoyed. It was like, "hi... you're acting like a five-year-old" and i just really wanted to let him know.

I wrote him back a snotty e-mail. I wish i had saved it. It still remained a smidgen polite in composure, but yeah... i got a little school-girl. It got my point across.

I'm pretty sure he never read it, but it made listening to his music a little more tolerable. I couldn't help that every time i turned on a Mraz Track, i cringed in annoyance.

So here... an open letter.

Dear Jason,

You are a rockstar. You are talented. Every time i've met you you've been stoned and drunk out of your mind, but damn... you can put on a great show. You'll go far. Everyone knows this...

I frankly don't give a shit about your personal life. I have one of those... i don't need to live vicariously through yours. Get over yourself.

Besides, until you started shackin' up with Tristan, i'm pretty sure everyone thought you were gay.

Hi! I just got a facial! It felt THUPER!"


Heart your music. Don't so much heart you,

Best, Three Star.
