I don't see how anyone can really side with the band at all over this. Atleast not yet. Hayley needs to release a "human" statement talking and addressing what Josh brought up. Remind the fans that they still all wrote music together, and love the fans. The fact is that she seems to be hiding from it, and even their reps saying the blog was fake is just pathetic. If the band controls their own fate than they can release any kind of statement they want, and not some record company robotic message. Josh is atleast responding/chatting to fans now, and answering their questions. I expect the same of the remaining members. I've been with this band since the release of "AWKIF" and this whole situation ticks me off. I know Josh & Zac are angry too, but everyone will get over it in time. For right now, the band just needs to not lie to us, and sugar coat things. Im sure a few of you care more about the look/status of this band than care about the music, but for most of us that believed this was a genuine band.....we were wrong.
This isn't to say that all the members aren't talented, deserve the best, and deserve to be happy. You don't have to agree with me at all, but Paramore is dead. What they were, who they are, what they stand for is gone. That is simply what came from all of this.
