Jason Mraz just listed two European festivals he's playing at starting June 23 (which is both our birthdays).
So there's still time for him to play at Bonnaroo before heading to Europe. I'm really hoping he's added to the lineup. My fingers are crossed! I think he'd be a nice addition.

This is probably the funniest review I've ever read.
Jason Mraz Mr. A-Z Thanks to this ass-assassin we’re now aware of what the sonic parallel to being sodomized in jail sounds like. Mixing the “funky white guy” sounds of The Dave Matthews Band, and the rhythm-less hip hop “skills” of Will Smith, Jason Mraz has created the perfect soundtrack for attempting the impossible task of sucking your own d*ck. Rich white college guys with sideways trucker caps and pooka shell necklaces who are trapped in the closet are super psyched on this crap.
Just to be clear. Thats not directed at anyone. Just the first thing I think of when I hear his name.
I was born in the back seat of a Yellow Cab in a hospital loading zone and with the meter still running. I emerged needing a shave and shouted 'Time Square, and step on it!

where is this review from, the Onion??
I think it might have originated from pitchfork. I've seen it in a bunch of places. Every time I want to find I just google search ass assassin.

He played the second year and put on a great set of pop music, including a great cover of "summer breeze". bonnaroo always has a very eclectic mix, pop is part of it.
*shrug* I really don't care what his fans are like. I dig his music. I had no idea his fanbase was primarily 14 year old girls and snobby college guys though. That sounds like a minor conflict of interest.
...well, I guess that depends on what kind of college guys you're talking about. =P
I was just thinking the other day of some of the Bonnaroo alumn that people would burst into flames about. Mraz, Gavin DeGraw, OAR (although people were pissin' and moanin' that they were there at the time), Marc Broussard, Maroon Five (okay, not quite grads of Bonnaroo U), Rachel Yamagata (though 'Rooers seem to be more lenient with female artists).
Personally, I don't really care too much. If I don't like somebody I'll just move on to another stage. If they're a headliner -- hey, great chance to rest up before the late night shows! That's what makes everybody's Roo different. Now if we were back in the days of single-stage festivals (e.g, Lolla V1.0 and V2.0) I might have a different perspective on things . . .

Smiting people blows, but smiting people for their musical taste is just plain lame, I agree. I absolutely hate Jason Mraz, but I'm not about to smite someone over it.
edit: ahhh, what a killer signature. Karms.^ That's prolly my fav song off of "With Teeth."
I'm not that big on Mraz, but the girlfriend digs him. We saw him at an Alanis Morissette concert (again, not my pick) but I was really suprised at how well he performed. I think he'd do fine at Bonnaroo. But you know. . .it's whatever.
i knew it! that sounded way too much like some buddyhead material to not be them. they are hilarious. they rip the mess out of anybody and everybody. the album reviews scored by different pics of axl rose are the best.
no offense, cause i'm sure that you're cool, but there needs to be an intervention here. we need to come confiscate your cds. anything that i can do to help you with this problem, you let me know. i'm here for you, buddy.

Personally, I'm neutral when it comes to Mraz. My ex-girlfriend was absolutely in love with the guy. I saw him in concert with her and, honestly, I wasn't that impressed. He was okay, but nothing spectacular.
I must say that I am a huge Jason Mraz fan, but if you're judging him on the Mr. A-Z album, or even Waiting for my Rocket to Come, you're in the wrong.
His earlier stuff was really incredible, as well as much of his early live performance (look them up on archive.org, or look for the java joes coffeeshop videos from the old days in San Diego.) He also just recorded a great couple shows and released them on a download-only album called "Selections for Friends" recorded at Schuba's Tavern over two nights in Chicago. He pulled out all the good old songs. None of the new poppy s#it.
I've seen him numerous times in concert, and while some have been better than others, I'd love to see him at Bonnaroo. His vocal skills really are astounding when you hear him live, and anybody who can have their music stand up with only an acoustic guitar and a djembe is roo material in my book.
I guess what I'm trying to say is don't judge a book by it's cover, or who you perceive his fans to be.
