the day has finally come. they are just too big now. after a show they have to be tired and there are a ton of fans now. it really would be out of hand with so many people out there.

i cant blame them either, im just glad i got to hang with them after a show a couple times cuz those days look like theyre over now.

this is the 3rd story ive heard of them doin this...

QUICK QUESTION....

for those who have already been to a meet and greet, after it is over do yall get to stay in the venue or do yall have to go back outside and then come back in?

im so ready to see these costumes!

I won one for the Austin date! I can't wait to meet 'em again.

woo hoo. see ya there.

and if you bought 2 tickets for you and a friend and you won the meet and greet does that mean that yall both get to go in or just the person that won.

and more dates have been put up with the winners' names.

i got the austin date but i didnt get the houston date. i would have rather it be switched but i cant complain since i got 1. im so excited!

man i just got the new coheed and cambria cd and i know of a few songs that could go on GH3.

does anyone else do that? you hear a song and try and think if it would be GH worthy? i do it all the time.

o god. im gonna be spending way too much money on those shirts and hoody. i already know it.

dude thats awesome.

man im wondering when they're going to put the rest of the dates for the winners...

hi everyone...

alright, well i noticed a post on ap.net about a certain tour we are doing in which we "are bringing NFG to the UK" and there was even a tour poster for it! haha this i find to be pretty interesting due to the fact that we've barely finished with the routing of the tour. the only thing that's concrete is the fact that NFG and the rest of us have wanted to put a tour together since we met on Warped this past summer. also, there have been no decisions or discussions that we know of about any other bands on this tour. there have been plenty of rumours about All Time Low coming out on this tour, but again no decisions have been made.

sorry for the confusion!

more posts about the tour are coming soon

^haha. yeah my bet is that its gonna be way worse than it was last time as far as pushing and all the people that are gonna be there. but ill definitely be there real early so i can get in the front.

wow these vids are HILARIOUS.

i agree. Paramore isnt so huge here in Houston.

well now both texas dates are sold out so any day now we'll find out who the winners for Austin and Houston are.

I appreciate them posting on LJ and keep the fans updated. do you guys think it's actually them who's posting the messages or a machine/someone who they hired? because when they played My Heart @ Australia, Hayley said their fans asked them to play that on LJ so obviously she reads that

o no its definitely hayley that writes all the LJ's

lots to talk about, ya'll!

it's been a crazy couple of months and now that we're back home it's hard to believe any of it really happened. japan and australia were both incredible. it was our second time over to japan and only our first trip to australia... we couldn't believe the crowds. every show was a blast. i feel like we really connected with all you guys at the shows and even though it was the first time we'd ever "met" the energy was ridiculous. like we'd been there so many times before. pure magic.

thank you to everyone who came out and showed us some love. we needed that! also, a HUGE thank you to Hot Rod Circuit for coming out on their last tour with US!!! we were so honored to have those guys and to sing with them was surreal. big thanks to Mayday Parade for being troopers with all that crazy flight madness (they came out to Japan... and because they already had flights booked home to LA they had to fly there before turning around and flying all the way back to play with us in Australia). those guys were great every night! loved sharin' the stage with them.

i still can't begin to explain - to even myself - how the heck we flew 26 straight hours from around the whole world and still had the energy to stand up long enough to walk on stage at Late Night with Conan O' Brien and TRL. those performaces were really important to us and we wanted to do our very best because to many people out there, we were makin our first impression. people remember first impressions. my voice wasn't anywhere near 100% but i felt proud of the performances. my only regret is that i didn't give Conan - Coney, my love (what the!?? haha) - a big ol' bear hug. it was so surreal, meeting someone who put me to sleep with a cramped up stomach from laughing so hard, every night for years. i wish the tv's that are usually in our bunks got Conan every night. TRL was ridiculous. we weren't really expecting to be that big of a part of the show. we didn't realize we would be interviewed multiple times on top of playing two songs. it was great! we're really thankful for the opportunities MTV has given us. hopefully, they'll give many more bands those opportunities... enough that music begins to take over the whole channel. (as it should). we really wanna be a part of seeing a change in their programming. i swear if i have to think about my little sister innocently catching a glimpse of Tila Tequila's new reality show one more time i'm gonna kill myself. why does the world insist on glorifying one more bare assed chick every single day? give us something worth while! and if you are going to give a hot naked chick a show, at least, give her some purpose. anyways, that's it. no more ranting! haha

speakin of hot chicks - Rihanna was a guest VJ on TRL while we were there. she was so beautiful and so kind to us. apparently, she's been a fan for a while and it was cool seeing her at the back of the crowd singing along to every word of "Misery Business" and most of "For A Pessimist..." we had a great time hangin with her even if it was only for a short time and the guys still haven't stopped talkin about it haha can you believe she's our age!? so rad. anyways, thank you to all you guys who came out to both Conan and TRL. once again, a performance that could've been awkward felt like home because of ya'll.

it's been nearly a week and home has been beautiful. the weather is perfect and it just feels great to be here. we start pre pro for the tour thursday! the guys and i, along with all the "paracrew" will be heading down to nashville and putting together the best show we can for you all we are so excited. can't wait to see you out there!

by the way, has anyone listened to "Faces In Disguise" by Sunny Day Real Estate, lately? life changing.

well the winners are up!!

BUT! not every date is up yet which would mean my 2 dates arent up yet. OH EM GEE.

edit: all the dates that are sold out have the winners.

well it says the meet and greet winners will be announced 2 weeks after presale is over but the first show is 11 days from now so shouldnt those names for Oct 23rd be on the website?

i dont know but this fanclub website is seriously lacking. i guess thats what happens when we get spoiled by pf.com.

yeah i really liked her hair as well.

they have grown so much since the 'pressure' video. it really shows in this video. i love it.

im hoping the performances will be put on youtube soon cuz i had class.

WOOHOOO!!

thank you guy for stayin up and watching the show tonight. we just watched it and i can't believe it all happened. thanks to those of you who came to the actual studio to watch us tape it. it really made us feel at home. i can't believe that just happened. haha! we were so nervous!

i didn't wanna watch from my room cause i was so nervous haha alright, well... it's time for bed. TRL and Fuse tapings tomorrow. be lookin out for on those shows and if you live in the area come see us! (honestly, i know we'll be busy and probably won't get to stop and talk much but just seeing you guys makes us feel so much more at home when we off d oing those crazy television shows). okay, sleep. sleep.

paramore

26 hours of flight time got us to NYC all the way from Melbourne, Australia.

we are so worn out, haha. it's not funny but it is. i think i just think everything is funny right now?

the best part... i am about 75% sure i have strep throat again! this would be the second time in less than a year. anyone remember the first tour of the year? well, anyways... we just got to NYC and now that we're all in our hotel rooms the "Rock Doc" is comin to see me. he's gonna tell me if it's really strep throat that i've got and hopefully, i can get a shot (in my arm...) so that i don't wake up feelin like i did today. you guys ever notice that one of us - usually me, i know - always gets sick before something big is about to happen? oh well, i got faith everything will be alright. if not, i mean, who really cares we still get to be on Conan! okay, i do actually care but whatever. the important thing is that one of our band's lifetime dreams is about to become reality.

[edit]: the doctor just left... he said he doubts it's strep but it is some type of virus and there's just a little inflamation. thank you Mr. Rock Doc. luckily, we don't have to be anywhere til 1:30pm so all of us are gonna be sleeping in. that should do it. if you don't mind, though, keep us in your thoughts and prayers. tomorrow is a big day for us. as is, tuesday. we're gonna be taping a performance at TRL! two songs... "Miz Biz" and "For A Pessimist..." so, be prepared for that, we're gonna have a great time playing there. right after that, we're headin over to Fuse to see our good friend, Steven! haven't seen that dude in ages. it's about time we caught up with him.

alright, i really should head to bed. what am i doing right now? ha. i just realized we have yet to update you all on the japan/aussie tour. we'll get to that soon. until then, we love ya'll. see ya from your tv screen tomorrow night!

love,

paramore
