John Mayer at Nokia

Come on down and get a room at the Dirty Hot Hotel. You are gonna love it here.
John Mayer is playing down the street. Some people are going ape shit over this. Others could give a fuck. Regardless, you should come down and enjoy the show.

Doors open at 7pm. So start the night right at 7grand and drink some whiskey. That's what John Mayer would do. Okay, so the show is unofficially sold out. Even craigslist has more buyers than sellers. You're gonna have to buy on the street or call me, my secret super secret ticket extention has them from $70 bucks to very close for $338. You can get a club box for $149 per ticket.

Whatever, you do, get out of the house and do something tonight. Even if you're just going to hang out inside your room and watch the fight on HBO. Both these guys are undeafeted. Well, someone had to have beat them up as a child, even if it was another child, so are they really undeafeted. You your sweet ass they are! It's a welterweight blow out tonight from Vegas via your TV.

The Brawl


Boxing Downtown at the Staples Center: Mayorga vs Vargas then Welter Wieght Title bout w/ Cintron vs Feliciano. I just clocked some tickets for $300 bucks on the floor.

Here's what you have in store.

"Former world champions Ricardo Mayorga and Fernando Vargas will try to prove they still matter while reigning champion Kermit Cintron will attempt to defend his title in a boxing double feature here Friday.
Tough-talking Nicaraguan Mayorga, 28-6 with one draw and 22 knockouts, will face equally outspoken US veteran Vargas, 26-4 with 22 knockouts, at a catch-weight that pushed the fight into a super middleweight level.
"Vargas is too fat to keep up with me," Mayorga said. "Vargas is done as a fighter. He was great when he was in his prime, but he doesn't have anything left. He has taken too many shots."

Vargas, who turns 30 next month, says this will be his final fight and that he will win in six rounds or less. He has fired back early and often in the war of words.
"I don't like anything about Mayorga," Vargas said. "He has a face only a mother gorilla would love. He's a jackass. I'm going to beat the (hell) out of him. He has a big mouth. He doesn't think about what he says. He just spews things.
"Mayorga talks a big game, but he's scared. I'm going to make him look stupid and finally shut him up Friday. The only thing I'm going to leave in the ring is Mayorga's blood."
Puerto Rico's Cintron, 28-1 with 26 knockouts, makes his second defense of the International Boxing Federation welterweight crown against American Jesse Feliciano, 15-5 with three drawn and eight knockouts.
Cintron is looking at unbeaten US fighter Paul Williams in February if he keeps the crown, but big-money paydays against unbeaten rival champions Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto are unlikely any time soon.
Mayweather is fighting England's unbeaten Ricky Hatton in two weeks while Cotto is a possible foe for the winner or even Oscar de la Hoya, who is looking at a May 3 bout, possibly here at Dodger Stadium.
Vargas was to have fought Mayorga in September but the fight was delayed because Vargas was ill.
Vargas lost twice last year to Shane Mosley, being stopped in the sixth and 10th rounds, while Mayorga's only fight in the past 27 months came 18 months ago when he was stopped in the sixth round by de la Hoya." - yahoo sports.

Also - from about 8pm to 10pm at the Pershing square ice rink, you can have the pleasure of seeing the world famous Pretenders cover band "Pretentious" perform all your favorite Pretenders songs.
