yes! the way i see it is - they werent happy, so the only thing they could do is leave. hopefully now they will go on to make awesome music and the whole situation will just give hayley jeremy and taylor alot to write about
@upthewall I just feel that there was better way to tell public the "truth". Of course I believe that majority of what he said could've happened. But his blog is riddled with self righteousness and blame. It was completely bias. Please don't to believe this story as an exact biography of what happened. There are 5 sides to this story.
I'm just not happy with how it was handled. Both you and I, and Josh Farro, have the right have an opinion and to voice that opinion. So please don't say I am no one just because you don't like my opinion.
I was really mad when I first read the post from Josh. I was going around saying, "Yeah, I've lost a bit of respect for Josh..." But, now, I'm more calm. I still respect them all equally. Josh was probably mad as he was writing it. He went a bit too far, but, I can understand. The band is going through alot right now. I still support everyone 100%.
@piinkaly
Josh was not bashing Hayley, or anyone for that matter. He was openly and truthfully letting us fans know the full reason he and Zac quit. Isn't it better to hear the full story direct from the source than just get a simple sweet little apology? He did what felt right, and considering he's probably in a rough place right now, I say you're no one to tell him what he should and shouldn't done.
I still have respect for everyone. If anyone is not acting appropriately hopefully they will realize that and apologize later. I didn't loose any kinda of respect and im not angry at anyone because were fans and we have to let them sort everything out and we can't make judgments on people for how they act in a situation because its how they handle it maybe they don't handle it well but still you shouldn't choose sides because of this you should still appreciate them for making the music they did and sharing it with us. People say that everything happens for a reason and maybe the band needs to learn how to deal with situations like this or something good may come of this you never know and i think everyone should just sit back and wait for the band to sort this whole mess out and then we can say what we want afterward when everything is cleared up because right now its a mess.I still support each and everyone one of them like i did before this happened, this is just my opinion though :)
There's no good reason to like them any less. They're still great musicians.They left for their own happiness and well-being, and the happiness and well-being of their family. They shouldn't put themselves through misery and unhappiness just to please others. And like Josh said in his blog, he thinks God is leading he and Zac elsewhere and has something else in store for them. It should be respected that Josh made that post to let the fans know the truth (he put up that video too). So to answer your question, absolutely.
I still like them. Lots of people have been taking sides, but they're right and wrong. Yeah, I can see how they may think it was unfair how record producers wanted Hayley insted of the whole band, but dude, that's how it works. The lead singers are the ones that always get all the buzz. Look at all the other bands. Do you think that most people know the guitar players name from Flyeaf? Hey Monday? Evanescense? With most people, no. I'm sure that a far greater percentage know the lead singers names though. It's just sort of the way things work. The lead singers are... well... the LEAD. And I'm not totally siding with Hayley either. I totally understand being in that position. Being in the shadows. When me and my friend played for the school last year, nobody even remembers that I did it. They remember my friend though, because she was the one singing. It sucks, but it's how things are, and it's how things are always going to be. So YES, I still like Josh and Zac, but I think that at the same time as being right, Hayley was too.
Stop taking sides. It's one thing to show support and to analyze the situation with facts, but to straight up say this is just inappropriate.
We don't know any of them, and it's hard not to judge each of them during a situation like this but we can't just choose sides and fight.
Nup, I can't support any one who is willing to publicly humiliate people who were supposed to like family. That statement was disrespectful and dog. If that makes me not a full Paramore fan then fine, I'm not. I look up to people who handle things like this respectfully and diplomatically.
When I said I would've liked to hear it from them, I was thinking "I'm really sorry, it just didnt work out. Thank you for supporting me and Zac while we where in Paramore." Something like that. The first paragraph was like that. The rest of the bloody essay was just picking at Hayley and Jeremy.
He should have bowed out gracefully. After all, it should only matter that he and his family know the truth. That should have been enough!
yeah. I'm not gona pick sides. and i'm not gona hate on them, especially if this is the truth. He had the courage to finally speak out, I appreciate that.
I still love Josh and Zac. At first, I couldn't believe why they would leave, but after seeing it from their point of view, i can understand and if they want to leave, I am happy for them to aslong as it is what they want.
Of course I still like Josh and Zac. I loved them when they were part of the band, and I love them now.
Some people think that the band was all about Hayley. It's true that in the past the lead singers of rockbands were the ones that got all the attention. But, we loved Hayley, Josh, Zac, Jeremy and Taylor equally. Well, I know I did.
Josh and Zac feel that God is leading them to greater things now, and if that is how they feel I will support them all the way.
I dont see how anything is Zac or Josh's fault
Meh, I was never Josh's biggest fan anyway, I think Zac is more talented on drums than Josh is on guitar.
Yep , more than I like Hayley now
Yes I still support them. :)
Yes, not as I did before, but yes, I like them and support
yes.
*Quit
Yes, the only thing they did was to qiut and tell people how they see things and how they've experienced everything.
no bitterness, i still like Zac And Josh.
Of course, it's the talent of them, we fans adored.
yes! the way i see it is - they werent happy, so the only thing they could do is leave. hopefully now they will go on to make awesome music and the whole situation will just give hayley jeremy and taylor alot to write about
yes. :)

No hard feelings, aye?
Of course. :)
I was really mad when I first read the post from Josh. I was going around saying, "Yeah, I've lost a bit of respect for Josh..." But, now, I'm more calm. I still respect them all equally. Josh was probably mad as he was writing it. He went a bit too far, but, I can understand. The band is going through alot right now. I still support everyone 100%.
I still respect them because of how much they've inspired me, and if they were unhappy in the band I respect their decision. That's it

truthfully I lost a lot of respect for Josh. Not Zac at all. but Josh. Not Hayley either.
I can't believe he posted all of that :/
I still like them. Lots of people have been taking sides, but they're right and wrong.

im behind them all. Taylor, josh, zac,Hayley, jermery. im not taking sides
I still love them!

i still like them ...

i could never not like them! they've done great things for Paramore, and you all know it. I've heard their side of the story, and thats all i wanted.
Course I still love them
I still love Josh and Zac. At first, I couldn't believe why they would leave, but after seeing it from their point of view, i can understand and if they want to leave, I am happy for them to aslong as it is what they want.
