Some of you other old timers should remember this guy...

Jason John Stowers was charged with felony reckless endangerment in connection with the incident, which happened the same night as the John Mayer concert at the Fargodome.

As he drove across a plaza area east of the MU, Stowers was swinging at students who were trying to pull him out of his Hummer, police said. Earlier, he hit a large tree and got out of his vehicle to encourage witnesses to get inside the Hummer so they** “could all get away,”** police said.

All things considered I think with actions were appropriate, who wouldn't want to get away from a John Mayer concert as fast as possible, he just took the shortest route he could find.
Plus, he should get a damn medal for trying to get others go with him, he's a damn hero not a criminal.

I remember hearing about this from a few classmates.

At first I figured it was an athlete here on campus- I think its one of the football players that drives a yellow h3

This is funny.

[thrash]

his guitar skills are much better than what you normally find in shitty pop music for white 20-something chicks.

But that means its just "acceptable", not "good". There are a big ass pile of guitarists with better chops than him, none of whom moan into the mike and bounce around like a sissy.

[harm]

haha.. yeah, I drove past the hummer on university around 11:00 while they were hooking up the tow truck. It was a beautiful sight.

No. He's good. Very good. Regardless of how stupid he looks when he plays, he's near the top of a long list of younger blues (yes, blues) players.

well this thread has been derailed but anyways..

john mayer as a blues guitarist is one of the best alive. let alone he is introducing blues to a group of people that would have NEVER given it the time of day.

Here are some videos.

John Mayer puttin in work w/ Buddy Guy one of the best blues musicians ever.. look at all the young girls in the crowd who probably have no idea who buddy guy is..

double post. fuckin noob.

[Joel]

Who is this guy Nick? What did he used to drive?

[integra_gsr98]

It'd be hard to explain who he is to people that weren't in the scene 10 years ago. He didn't drive anything, he just dealt in salvaged cars/parts.

[wa2fastcamaro]

lol that is funny. Jason was a interesting guy, having his hand in quite a few things, legal or not. Me and my dad bought quite a few cars from him 8-10 years ago. The police got on him for selling stolen car parts and all kinds of stuff.
