i love my album :) - EvBoard

**Snow White** · 01-20-2006, 07:26 PM

Hey guys.
I know everyone is dying to hear whats going on, and its been a little while since I've posted. There's some stuff I really shouldn't talk about right now, but I want you to know that the record is coming out beautifully. Through all of the scary and insane drama over the last 6 months, there has also been alot of good- I feel like a new person. As most of you already know, Terry had a stroke in November. A small chunk of this recording process was spent in the neurology unit at ULCA. Every time he would wake up all he could talk about was getting out of the hospital and playing guitar. He actually had us bring his polka-dot Randy Rhodes guitar to the hospital. Its funny- after being stuck on lyrics for a month on one song, I remember finally writing them at the foot of Terry's bed in intensive care. Its wild how life inspires you- again reminding me that we have no control over anything. It's been 2 months, and Terry has made miraculous progress. He is in the studio with us right now, and everything is going ahead as planned. We are certain that he will make a full recovery- he's too stubborn to settle for anything less. Meanwhile, we were (and are) going through firing our manager, and as you can see (all over the freaking internet), that hasn't been very easy for us either. BUT it always hurts to break through to the other side- to make the changes you have to make to help yourself, and I already feel so good. Weird. I feel better than I have in years. I love my album, I love my band, and I'm grateful for our lives. This album is meaning more and more to me as we finish it. Most of it was written when we came into the studio, but much more has poured out through all of this, making it that much better- that much more passionate. We will be finished with mixing and everything by March first. THAT MEANS it will be early fall when the album is actually on the shelf. We're thinking August. I hope you can understand the delay, and I promise the music will be worth it. I just can't wait to share it with everyone. Thank you all for being so patient and supportive. We love you!

Wow, i pretty much DIDNT know Terry had a stroke.

Basically sucks. A lot.

And as far as that drama with your manager and whatnot- at least its change for the best. Itll make good.

Hey Amy, it's so awesome to hear that the new album is coming along well! I'm sorry that so much drama has been going on with you guys though, I feel really bad about all that

But, man, I can't wait for the new cd! You guys have been putting so much effort and time in it, I'm sure it'll be amazing(and August is my birthday month, so I think I all ready know what I want for my birthday

)

Nice hearing from you! <3

(Firstly, hello! This is the first time I've ever replied to one of your posts, and I'm really excited to be able to.

"Nice to meet you" doesn't even cover it, even if it is the internet. XD)

That's awesome! I'm really glad to hear Terry's doing better; I know what it's like to have friends and family in the hospital, and I know it feels GREAT when they get out and you get to see feeling like themselves again. I'm sorry things haven't gone too well with the manager (the internet DOES like spreading things around, doesn't it >.>), but on the other hand I'm REALLY happy for you guys about the new album! ^___^ I'm happy for everyone, band and fans included-- you're going to make SO many people absolutely overjoyed when the album does hit the shelves.

Great job to all of you; great to hear some REALLY GOOD NEWS!!!

Ashlee · 01-20-2006, 07:41 PM

Hey Amy!

I can't believe that about Terry good to hear here's doing very well

Goodluck with the manager situation and everything, I can't wait to hear the new stuff cause I know it'll rock!

Holy shit. I knew something happened to someone but daaaaaaaamn... Give Terry a hug for me next time you see him... poor dear... awwwwwwwwwww I had no idea that happened... I really, really hope he's okay, and I hope everything goes wonderful and... and... and a partridge in a pear tree?! Glad you love the album, bet we'll love it too. My nerves are shredding themselves in happy hopefulness and anticipation... and the anxiety you'd typically find in a dorky high school freshman. Love you all so much!!

Um.. woah. That's crazy. I knew that *something* happened to *someone* in the band but I didn't know that it was as serious as a stroke. Good to hear that he's recovering from it though.

August, huh? Does that mean that there will be a tour in September? Maybe, say, around my birthday??

liza_jane · 01-20-2006, 08:09 PM

Euge · 01-20-2006, 08:10 PM

Thanks for the update, it means soo much for all of us!!

And don't worry, we understand the delay, and know the music will be a hundred times worth the wait.

We love you too, guys <333
