Mayer Hawthorne's Mayer4Detroit Halftime Performance

After an unsuccessful campaign to replace Nickelback for the halftime performer of the Detroit Lions’ football game today, Mayer Hawthorne decided rather than be bitter, to hit the stage in his parent’s basement and perform anyway. Although the Lions are considered underdogs in today’s game, Meyer Hawthorne refuses to let that take away from his love for the team. The video features Mayer’s father playing the bass alongside the band as they run through a few familiar tunes. Thanks to Rolling Stone for the footage.
