WOW for real.

I guess I just don't get the reason behind getting so attached emotionally to the goings on of a band.

I have never placed a band, or it's members, in a place where their situation affected my life.

maybe i am in the minority.

That post was a really interesting read. Just goes to show, yet again, how corrupt the music industry really is.

I actually feel really bad for Hayley; she clearly was manipulated by her manager, she was like, what, only 13/14 years old? In interviews and stuff, she's always stressed the importance of Paramore as a band and not a solo artist. Besides, a band with 4 guys and a pretty (and talented) female singer? She was always gonna get the most attention, lmao.

This whole situation is a mess though, lol. They should just do the tour and split up, call it quits and let Hayley get on with her solo career.

I cannot say I'm surprised by his account. Too bad I didn't have any popcorn to eat while reading it.

Eh, it's the Supremes all over again, or Dreamgirls, or Almost Famous take your pick.

The record business if notorious for doctoring the product. They hit the scene around the same time as Flyleaf, which wasn't long after Avril (Faux Punk) and Evanescence (Faux Metal) put Young Women fronting Rock bands back in a high profile spot, cause Gwen Stefani went solo & straight pop, Courtney Love went DEA, and whatever happened to Kittie? Razz They (Flyleaf, Paramore) were filling a void for the industry. If they didn't exist they were going to get created by somebody.

I honestly like Flyleaf when she's not singing like she's possessed (thank goodness there was a radio edit of Sick, and that's what I heard first, sans to guttural screams at the beginning). Paramore was always too "saccharine" for me. since 60% of the band is intact, and all the legal stuff is in Haley's name, as the internet would have it, then the show will go on. Will there be an audience, probably.

I guess Hayley being a terrible person isn't a new development after all. Whatever. Like I said before, I'm a fan, but I really don't care too much about all this. Though at this point, they really should just stop calling the band Paramore and just have Hayley as a solo artist.

I don't think I could pick a paramore song out of a line up if my life depended on it.

but again are we certain this blog is legit. if it is, then cool.
but if not, you all are hating and saying "i knew it" when it wasn't real.

looks like you had the gallows up before the trial even started.

It was posted earlier that the blog was also reposted to the guy's confirmed Facebook account too. If you look on their page where they have twitter mentions, the denunciation of the post came from a twitter for management specifically. That looks like publicist damage control to me.

This is from the same folk who said they'd had a phone hacked when evidence pointed to them just fat-fingering it (DO NOT TAKE THAT TO THE GUTTER THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEAN, but I am not so naive not to realize that common phrase could be misinterpreted. My intentions are noble).

A very revealing exit statement from the guys who left. All I can say is...hahaha. Ouch.


Shocked


Although, now that I think about it, there's a chance that blog post might be fake. It's a brand new blogger account. So......giant grain of salt. But it sounds very much like something he'd write, and the details are all there. If it IS real, then damn.

EDIT: Disregard all of that, the blog is real. He posted about it on Facebook. Well then...


For Mr. Pine ^ I trust MKD wouldn't fabricate.

Sadly, I think this will be quickly dismissed by the masses. Some people just don't care if the band is manufactured, and often people will side with the most popular person involved. Example? I bet a majority of Paramore fans think Sherri is just some bitter slut Chad used to be married to.

Did Hayley upload a topless video by mistake?
