Paramore breaks up

This is what Paramore looks like right now, with Hayley on one side the band on the other. Sad.
I was devastated to hear that Paramore has broken up. Although I did sort of see this coming... when Hayley wore a dress on stage when she sang "Decode" for Jimmy Kimmel Live.

I was like, "Whoaaa, she's in a dress!" but I was thinking more like, "Oh no she's in a dress! Next thing you know she's saving her head!"

Yeaah, well she didn't actually shave her head now did she? But she did post that pic on twitter so, it's kinda like the same thing. Omens.

Although it's still disappointing that they proved me and my friends right. I was sorta hoping they'd stay true to the craft of rock and be real and not be a puppet of mainstream rock. It was nice seeing her more like a girl, but that was not how you would see Paramore. It was like seeing Avril Lavigne dance and wear pink. It's crazy!

What's worse though, is that things got from sad to just plain ugly with rumors flying around how Hayley's fame-hogging puppet, and the truth behind the band's beginnings. It's kinda hard to believe when you've seen their behind the scenes videos of concerts and whatnots. It's sad that songs, I've learned to love came from such a disturbed band.

I really do hope that they're all well and good with each other, and that Josh and Zac aren't really that mad at Hayley or the band. It is sad though that they were the ones to leave since technically it's their band, they started it.

It's sad seriously, I really hope that it isn't true what everyone's saying. I love Paramore! :(( it's freaking heartbreaking.

Now I don't mean to spread the rumor, it's just that I think Paramore fans need to distinguish the truth from the lie. So this is the link to the Farro brothers exit statement and you be the judge if it's real or not, or if you want to believe it or not.

I really hope it ain't real


*edit

So, apparently the exit statement is true. Josh released a video saying that it was. I am so devastated by this. Seriously, I shouldn't be affected at all, but I love their music so much, and knowing that it came from hostile beginnings is so disappointing for me, and I bet for Paramore fans out there too.

So here's the video for Josh's confirmation that the blog is true.


Even with this, I'm still hoping that everything will turn out good.

Anberlin Concert

So a lot of people will ask, who is Anberlin? Or, what are they?


Well, they're this alternative rock band, that isn't really mainstream but makes awesome music!

I used be one of those people who didn't know these kinds of bands. I was more of a pop girl. Well, not pop POP, just popular music; you know, those always shown on MTV. Anyway, when I entered college I met alternative fanatics, and so, eventually I got introduced to Anberlin.

One of my first Anberlin songs was "Autobahn" from their first album "Blueprints for the Black Market" which was a total hit with some of my classmates so I kinda got the fever as well. We loved to go out of town on impromptu trips, so "Autobahn" was like the favorite roadtrip song.

Next favorite Anberlin song would be "A Day Late" from their "Never Take Friendship Personal" album. It's about someone confessing about their feelings too late when they've both move on. I know this sounds all lovey dovey and cheesy, but it's real good!

Another Anberlin fave would be "Retrace" from their  "New Surrender" album and it's a kind of reminiscing, anyway, I shouldn't really be describe it in my points of view, it makes it all so cheesy. lol.

There's a playlist on my sidebar with these Anberlin songs and you be the judge of them. I'll be adding more of their songs later (because I'm actually at work right now LOL)

The point of this post, as the title says, is that Anberlin is going to have a concert here in Manila on MARCH 9, 2011, at the A-VENUE HALL in Makati.

So if by chance, I have persuaded you to watch it, then you better buy tickets now, because I heard it's running out fast. tickets are only P1500 - VIP and P1000- Gen Ad.
