"Aware Records' John Mayer is an incredible guitarist and an engaging live performer, which only partly explains why he can go into a market like Chicago (where he'd played twice before, as an opener in a 150-seat room) and headline and sell-out the 1400-capacity House of Blues with no airplay. It's Mayer's rabid online fan army, along with Aware's expertise in selling APM music, that are combining to grow his following, fast. "No Such Thing" was a 10-time winner on the WTTS Cage Match, qualifying it for an automatic add, as well as a place in the "Cage Match Hall of Fame," an honor bestowed on only two other songs, one of which was Train's "Drops of Jupiter." And MD Marie McCallister (whose ears I trust implicitly) told me last week that she can't stop listening to the song. Now I'm hooked."--Mike Morrison, Hits Magazine

yeah rabid online fan army!!!!!! ;)
