This made me smile haha

i'm not saying she did anything wrong

what i mean when i say that is alot of people (not necessarily here) don't want to believe hayley was/is the center of the band because as much as shes tried not to be but she is by the public and media. so some people are like 'oh she'd never let that happen' because of the whole 'paramore is a band' thing but obviously she still was center of attention and even though it may not be her fault it still obviously hurt josh and zac

 

if that makes any sense

I agree, people need to accept that, like it or not, Hayley will be the centre of attention. She fronts the band, so that's one thing, but also she's a woman, so she stands out from the other members. The media will focus on her... we've seen this type of thing before. No Doubt, anyone? Blondie? It happens.

I refuse to take sides, because everyone is pointing fingers. Josh & Zac wrote from their perspective, and they didn't pull any punches. They possibly do feel bitter. Hayley, Jeremy and Taylor wrote from their perspective, except in a more positive way. If the Farros felt as though they weren't happy, then they have every right to leave the band... 7 years of building tension, that reached breaking point a few times... this was possibly the final straw. While I think their statement was a bit catty, and possibly slightly childish, they said what they wanted to say. I still like Paramore, I still like their music, and they've given me so many good memories of things like going to see them play/meeting them, and I'm just grateful for that. I'm looking forward to what Hayley, Jeremy and Taylor do, but I'm also looking forward to what Josh and Zac do.

this was unnecessary. it's so bitchy.

I agree that Josh + Zac's statement isn't exactly a fun read... but theirs is written in bias to them, in the same way that Hayley, Jeremy and Taylor's was written in bias to them...

I have no idea what to say... completely stunned, despite the fact that it was obviously going to happen... I saw the fake blog post, then the video on here from Hayley, Jeremy and Taylor...

That is SO GOOD Rachel!

seeing as I've posted it everywhere else!! haha

that looks SO GOOD

NOTTINGHAM! YES!

I really like it! I thought the sunglasses and 'poison' were very gaga. I also like how the guys are included loads too!!

Haha, it'll surprise you how short they are!

I look like a complete giant. They were all SO NICE. It wasn't awkward at all, and I was chatting to Hayley and Jeremy for ages. When we all realised it was past 6:30 (doors opening) we all started to worry that we'd get a bad place in the crowd, but some random bloke from the arena was like "oh, we're keeping everybody locked out until you guys are all in", so I got centre barrier!

I didn't get any more photos because I left my camera at home, and my phone died shortly after this. It was amazing though...

totally unexpected! I'd asked Hayley to get up on stage during Misery Business, but she picked the girl 'next-door but one' to me

it was so good though!

got my BNE booklet signed

I'm really excited still! One thing I worry about though is the fact that I won't be able to hold a place in line while I meet the band... Do M&G people get into the venue early, or are they just sent to the back of the line (and therefore the crowd)?

I bought it for my mum's birthday, but had a cheeky read before I wrapped it up. It's hilarious.

It's so good!

I'm really interested as to how this video's going to turn out

being relatively realistic here... so no Stop This Song, or All We Know...

It's certainly an interesting look... haha. Pretty cool though

I bet she gets all the "OMGZZ SHE SHUD HAV JST SAYD ORANGE xDDDDDDDD"

I always like hearing who got meet & greets and seeing how stoked everybody is. Congrats to everyone who won one.

 

Will this be your guys' (I doubt that's grammatically correct) first time meeting the band?

my first time! I really didn't think I'd win, haha. I checked on my phone in the crowded common room at school, and got some strange looks!

exciting stuff!!

I GOT MEET AND GREET!! So happy
