    So we're on our way home right now from Austin, TX. Its 11 am and we still have like 8 hours left! jeez! Its all good though, the show in Austin was amazing! It was probably the most fun Ive had playing a show in a while. I dont know why but I was just being so goofy.. I really couldn't help it. Thanks to everyone that came out to rock with us. That show and Panama city made us all really excited about hitting the Jimmy Eat World tour here in a couple of weeks! Its going to be off the chain... (does anyone use that phrase anymore? haha)

    Im also pretty bummed out cause I just heard about our good friends the Starting Line taking a break :( Im going to miss those guys while they are gone but I know they will be back. Its a shame that they arent one of the biggest bands right now cause they deserve to be.. they are some of the coolest dudes we have ever toured with! Plus their music is phenomenal. I love their new record... my favorite songs are 21,Birds, and Need to Love. Such a great album! Well, we will be praying for those guys... they've been touring hard for 8 years now and Im sure they just need some time. Every band goes through it. Being in a band is a lot harder than you'd expect...its sorta crazy. I never thought I would get worn out from touring so much but what do ya know?! And its not that we get sick of you guys and playing shows its just like anything in life...if you do it ALL the time non-stop its bound to get tiring after a while. Anyways, They've got a tour coming up and its their last one for a while so GO SUPPORT THEM! PLEASE!

    Well us Paramore dudes and dudette are headed home for a couple weeks..we're going to start practicing for the Jimmy tour. I know we are all looking forward to it because we are going to be playing some songs we've never played before.. If you have any ideas on what song you would like to see us cover feel free to speak your mind. We are curious to see what yall wanna hear us play!

    Ok well Im off....We love you guys and can NOT wait to see you! Thank you for all you guys do for us. See you soon

Sooo this is a reallly extremely old post...but dude, you and the guys should post more often!(: I mean I love Hayley, but we get to read all her stuff and it feels like we kinda know who she really is by what she says (which I looove!). We don't get to hear much from you guys, and it's harder to get to know what you're like. I'd like to ...read (unfortunately..) more from you(:

Submitted By: Ashlyn I know I'm way late on this, but I had totally forgotten you guys came to Austin! I live here, and I've never seen y'all live, so it makes me sad that I missed this show. Some of my friends went and said it was definitely one of the best shows you guys have ever played! I'm also missing your show in Dallas with No Doubt, so I'm hoping I'll get to see you guys sometime soon. Love, Ashlyn.

Submitted By: JillzSkillz You know, Josh? You got it SO right. (Even though this was PRACTICALLY a year ago lol) The Starting Line is pretty awesome. My fave song by them is DEFS 21! And who really cares if 'off the chain' isn't a common phrase anymore... MAKE IT ONE AGAIN! By the way.. I have an idea for a cover song for you guys to do, but I don't know if it would be your style... have you guys ever thought of doing a Melissa Etheridge cover song? She's pretty old school (to the point where she's dying of Breast Cancer.. *Sad face*) but when she was huge, she was GI-NORMOUS! P.S. You know you want to come to Toronto.. I know some stupid/crazy Torontonians get these hair-brained ideas that you rockstars WANT to be pushed off stage or maimed while performing.. but not all of us fans actually want to see dents in foreheads/guitars/drums/stereos! (Just trust me on this one.. lol) P.P.S. Good luck with whatever tour you're doing nowadays... And don't forget to give some shit-eating grins at the crowd every once in a while. :)

Submitted By: Lenay I just randomly found this on here and started reading it, and I must say I am very impressed. "well, we'll be praying for those guys..." Idk what your take on God is, but oviously there's something there for you to pray. I'm very stoked that you would come right out and say that. Way to go. =D
