New: John Mayer Video.

Alright Swiss Monsters,

I can't lie. I'm a huge John Mayer fan. I'm a fan not just because he collects Rolex and is also a musician. I am a fan because he is a true artist. If you all haven't checked out his new single "Shadow Days." do it!  Here's the Link ITUNES. The new video is also available for viewing and in it John can be seen wearing what appears to be a Rolex 5517.
