I wouldnt mind =p
But realistically - Cobus Potgieter to replace Zac

He's is an awesome drummer and has got great passion for music.
Also I think he's a christian ;)

To be honest neither of them were unbelievable at their instruments, just another couple of average pop-punk players. But I will say Josh was a good songwriter, I'll give him that, if they can find someone who can write decent stuff then they'll have no problem replacing them.

im kinda mad at josh and zac for leaving two months before their next big tour. kinda selfish to me. but thats just my opinion. i bet it'll either be that jonah kid or taylor's brother. i think itll be hard to find a replacement for zac. that dude was hackin awesome.

Anyone half-decent can step in and play the back catalogue, but more concerning is who's gonna come in and write the new album?

Without Josh's riffs there are no songs. Anyone can play guitar but writing an album match Brand New Eyes was going to be a tough ask for Josh himself, let alone someone new.

looks like taylors brother gonna replace josh (at least for the south america tour)
he tweeted this a few minutes ago :)

@jyplaysguitar Justin York
The cat's finally out of the bag! I'm gonna do the South America tour with Paramore, and I'm really stinkin' stoked!!!!

thats true but they need some one to play the lead guitar taylor can't play both parts and the need some one to play the drummes for the band
I think they will find replacement band members soon but they will never be as good as josh and zac

If there are auditions I would definitely want to try out for the drums.

Well I'm sure Taylor will be lead guitar cuz he's subbed for Josh before, and Jon will problably be a recognized member as backup/rhythm guitar because he already tours with them a lot. Taylor's brother Justin is an option for guitar as well. Drums is anybody's guess at this point.

i would do my best to replace Josh. i play guitar and i know all of their songs.. thing is, im only 15 sooooo, its not going to happen. This whole thing is rly upsetting me becuase they're the reason i write my own music. i say, nobody can replace them, and we're all gonna die :X

Andrew White - guitar,backing vocals
