Best Week Ever Conquers The John Mayer Cruise: Brian and Mimi’s Bucket List

Yes, we know: You’re probably feeling a little burned out from all the John Mayer coverage this week. Here’s the good news: We’ve saved what we think is the best for last! Brian Faas and myself created a “Bucket List” of sorts while on the cruise, listing all the things we wanted to accomplish before returning to the Port of Miami.

Will Brian successfully recreate the scenes from Titanic? Will he also make me sort of uncomfortable by splaying himself on a peach leather couch? Will I get the chance to make an announcement on the cruise’s loudspeaker? And will Brian get the “John Workout” from Mayer’s real-life personal trainer? The video answers all those questions… and more.

So really, if you’ve got a few spare minutes, check it out. We worked really hard on it, and are proud of the results. (/sincerity)

Note: The video is under 3 minutes, and not 7, like iFilm states. Technology!

Make sure to head over to VH1.com, for more info on all the musicians on board, as well as video and photos of the performances!

BONUS:

After the jump, some fun DVD EASTER EGGS!

Did you know:

  • During the actual Titanic scene where Jack sketches Rose, director James Cameron‘s hands were swapped with Leonardo’s during the close-ups of the sketch. I thought it would be funny to swap my hands with our Executive Producer, who is a few shades darker than me and also, a man. Little did we know on camera, our hands would look nearly the same, save for, well, arm hair. Hence, we added that yellow disclaimer, just to avoid any confusion, as well explain a poorly executed joke.
  • For the record: I did, in fact, sketch that genius photo of Brian, areola and all.
  • During the final scene: You may notice that I’m, for lack of a better word, trashed. (You can thank the ship’s double apple martinis — served in a beer stein — for that.) The story goes like this: Remember how the Superbowl was happening on Sunday? Well after a long day of taping, we decided to shoot that scene during the last. effing. quarter. Me being the only one who cared about the sports/pop-culture history happening out there in the universe. You will notice, beneath my slightly burned bloated face, that I am, how do you say, “pissed”?
  • Our Biggest Fan Cameo! During the Titanic pool scene, keep your eyes peeled for Debbie, our biggest fan on the boat! She got all of our autographs, and is downright fantastic. Debbie, we love you too.
  • Brian was actually shirtless. That was not CGI.
  • Needless to say: “This trip was the most erotic experience of my life.”
