life is complicated, no one's perfect; but the only thing i would have done differently than amy in the last 2 years is distance myself sooner from the people that have been mentioned. amy and ben started evanescence. the 3 of us got signed and 4 of us (i tip my hat to the great dave fortman) made the record that it seems many of you love. no one else. what the hired band did do was accept the chance of a lifetime - be part of one of the biggest selling records in the last 10 years and make more money playing in front of bigger crowds than any other musician we'd known. are there sacrifices? sure, life is full of sacrifice; if someone wanted to leave ot be with their family, then that's understandable. but for anyone to be even the least bit ungrateful is mind-boggling. what exactly did they think they deserved out of this? amy doesn't owe them anything, and anyone who thinks differently is sorely mistaken.
things are never perfect; we all have learned a lot in the last many years. and while i haven't been around for all of it, i know everyone involved along the way enough to know that you should not be pointing your blame at amy. that's ridiculous. she is a beautiful person and an innovative artist. you can choose to disagree with me if you want, but you're probably ill-informed and my picture's at the top of the page Wink |

| Quote: | | Just to let you know, I pulled down the very personal blog about my departure from Evanescence. I felt that I said what I had to say and the response was very much the same among everyone who read it. I feel beyond those very strong feelings now and am ready to move past them. Now I am all about Machina and persuing that without bitterness or hurt in my heart. EV was what it was, a stepping stone. A very large stepping stone that I truly appreciate and will always hold close to my heart. I will never play down the importance of it in my life or the lives of my friends and family. It is a piece of history that I got to be involved in and will remember forever. I choose to remember the good things about it rather than a negative perspective of a disgruntled former member. So, all that is said...let's move on and rock out with our cock out to MACHINA!!! Ready, Set....GO!!! |

S-ar putea ca pana sambata viitoare (sau chiar sambata viitoare) sa aflam cine o sa fie noii membrii! Au sambata un concert si nu cred ca l-au anulat.

Si acum......mesaj de la Amy Lee...pardon, Amy Hartzler
| Quote: | i've got a new ring & now you've got the scoop.
Hey guys. Wow, there is so much to say, I don't know where to start. First of all, and most importantly, I am now officially Mrs. Amy Hartzler! Josh and I are married, and it is the most incredible thing to happen in my life so far (and I've seen some pretty incredible stuff). We just got back from our beautiful, remote honeymoon 2 days ago, and unfortunatley discovered that the fact that I was unable to defend myself for a week was taken advantage of quite a bit. Here's the truth, when I said that John and Rocky both made it clear they were ready to move on, I meant it. They were very vocal about the fact that they didn't really care about evanescence at all, and just stayed around for the money. I knowingly let this negative energy grow within my band for a very long time because I was afraid of the appearance of falling apart, when in reality, trying to hold on to these guys is what was holding us back. I treated both john and rocky with nothing but kindness and respect, and I got nothing but jealousy and resentment in return. They were miserable. They are no longer playing with us because I love this band too much to see it driven into the ground. One little false fact that's been bugging me in the press about this- rocky didn't quit. He never talked to me or our management at all...but he did tell most of the crew and the rest of the band that he planned to quit during the 2 weeks off after our shows in south africa (during which I was getting married and would have no time to replace him). Fortunatley, many of those people care about this project and came and warned me, so we were able to replace him in time to continue the tour as scheduled. I then told John it was time he did what he obviously wants to be doing- playing in his own band. Because no one should be playing in evanescence that doesn't appreciate it- that doesn't love it. And especially not someone that is doing it harm. Being a touring member of a band when what you really want is to be a creator can be frustrating- I guess that frustration got the best of john.
...But that was last week...
So today was the first full rehearsal with Will and Troy and they are awesome. (For those of you who don't know, they are the drummer and guitarist from Dark New Day). I haven't seen Terry so happy playing guitar since before the stroke. They've been working their butts off for the past few days cramming the setlist into their brains and they sound great. Its amazing how good it feels to play now- no clouds over our heads, no conspiracy, no drama, just the love of music. Terry, tim and I are very happy, and seriously can't wait to start touring again. Will and Troy are a little nervous, but they shouldn't be, they both SHRED. Fellow DND fans, don't worry, the bands not breaking up. Were just borrowing Will and Troy for awhile (they are working on their new album now).
Well I hope that's real enough for you. I'm probably going to be repremanded for saying so much, but somebody's got to tell the truth. I'm wiped out. Need sleep! We love you guys, and we won't let you down. See you soon!
Love,
Mrs. H. |

| Quote: | So I've been quiet thus far reading all the drama that's been our lives and find it quite unbelievable that you kids idolize this "person" so much and believe every bit of bullshit your "idol" posts. I'm not under any contract so I'm gonna say whatever I want. It NEEDS to be said. You guys don't need to be lied to anymore. I've been around the band since almost the beginning when my old band opened up for them. You people can take my words however you want cause I don't care if you believe what I'm about to say. For those of you who know me and what my relationship to the band is, you know my credibility. With that said... where do I begin? hahaha Can we just say "chapter 1"? I've looked at the questions some of the fans have been asking and I'm here to answer some of them cause I've seen an awful lot. Awful is not nearly a negative enough word for it too. I feel extremely bad for the fans that have been so misled by this wave of BS that is thrown to you. Your "idol" does not care about you. If your "idol" did, then please explain to me(and hold your breath cause this is gonna suck for you die hard fans) why she told the band that after November your favorite band will no longer exist. WHAT? I'll say it again... your "idol" told the rest of the band that after November, there will no more band. At least... not for a very very long time IF at all. Also... let's look at your "idol"'s loyalty. You've got 2 members that have been there from the beginning and helped your "idol" get to the top. Your "idol" claims they were only in it for the money. Yeah eventually that was what it came down to but it wasn't always like that. When a certain founding member quit and your "idol" was scared to death they were gonna tank, but the 3 other guys who had been there from the start stayed and helped make the bands following in to an army 14 million world-wide it was because they loved what they were doing. And at the time being, your "idol" was real and loyal. Why? Because she needed them. As soon as your "idol" doesn't need someone anymore... you either become details or just another statistic. Want examples? Ok. Let's start at even before the record came out. There was a keyboard player who helped write the whole album. Right before it came out, he was FIRED. This is the very keyboard player who stuck up for your "idol" hahaha AWESOME! I guess he forgot he was fired too. It must not have mattered cause he's rich too and those people gotta stick together I guess. It doesn't really matter, nobody knows who he is anyway as I noticed many of you fans called out. Next example. When the found guitarist quit, your "idol" told the rest of the band that the cancer was gone and everything would be a "real" band from now on. I'm sure you guys can find statements saying something to that effect. Things were going well for the band. A new guitarist entered who was doing well and the band didn't seem to skip a beat. The end of tour happens, the band members all go home and my 2 friends start writing for the new album because they were told it was gonna be a group effort and be like a "real" band where everybody contributes. LIES. This was the downfall of that band. Your favorite band is not going down the toilet because 2 members left/quit/whatever. It started to die when all 3 original members were told they were getting cut out of writing the new album. Right then and there the band became a job for 2 of them. And for the other one, he had decided he was done with it. Most musicians will tell you they're not gonna be happy if they're not allowed to be creative. That's what good musicians do. They create. Now you've got a guitarist, bassist & drummer who are incredible musicians being told they're not allowed to contribute. 3 people who are incredibly talented being used a basically session players. This after they were promised it was gonna be a "real" band from here on out. So what happens after that? Where'd all these songs go that were written by my 2 friends and completely ignored by your "idol"? Enter the first side project. And I can't thank you guys enough for that ongoing support. Suddenly these guys who are in one of the biggest bands in the world could care less because they were constantly being lied to and disappointed. And had more fun playing in a band that wasn't even signed than in a Multi-platinum Grammy Award winning band. Why not leave and go somewhere else you ask? Well... 2 of the members have families to take care of and bills and the one who really didn't have all that forcing him to stay in a situation he didn't want to be in... quit. And the statement that was posted by your "idol" was not what happened. So now you have 2 autentic members who are miserable but caught between a rock & a hard place because they have families to look out for. The only real thing that made them happy anymore was the fans. And if any of you have ever met them, you know it's true. They cared more about that than anyone else in that band. More examples of how loyal your "idol" is? Ok. We have the 2 main writers of this new album that on the surface look to be the best of friends. Your "idol" was great friends with her co-writer until it came down to publishing(MONEY). Oh no... there's no loyalty when it comes to that. The guitarist got most of his publishing taken from him because he trusted your "idol" that everything would be fine so he didn't sign anything. Big mistake with that camp. You better get EVERYTHING in writing from these devils or it's not happening. Why would somebody put up with being treated like that? Maybe because of a tragedy that impaired somebody's playing ability and once again we have somebody in between a rock & a hard place. Get screwed out of a ton of money OR leave the band and don't get to play for a while. And trust me when I say taking away an artists ablility to play is something I don't wish on anybody. I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't do what I love. So our friend decided to get screwed over and keep playing. And it was very hard to see somebody everyday who wants to play so much and because of an accident is held back. The frustration and anger is hard to watch when you know somebody loves what they do more that anything. Who even this person said they had other things lined up knowing there would be no band after November. "November, November the month with no members" as we would say. So when you see a certain ex-member of this band selling plaques on eBay, cut him some slack. It's not out of disrespect, it's called paying bills. These guys aren't rolling in the cash as some of you might think. And understand the frustration it must be everytime you look at something that should have been some of the happiest times in your life and all you can think of is pain. These guys love playing and writing music. They love the fans. Your "idol" wants to put spin on everything she can to prevent the truth of this situation to come to light. Why? Because the truth makes her look horrible and exposes this "band" for what it really is. Which is why you have members saying they're legally not allowed to say anything on the matter. Management doesn't want the truth out there cause it'll cost them money. But I've seen most of it and they can't hold me to anything. I'll leave asking you guys this one last thing: Which would you prefer... being lied to and lead to believe something that isn't true or knowing the awful truth but still the truth nonetheless?
I'm sorry but somebody had to say this. You've read the "scoop"... now read the truth.

Deci eu nu mai stiu ce sa cred am fost foarte trista cand am auzit stirea dar cu timpu am inceput sa rad la fiecare comentariu al unui membru/fost membru/apropiat al trupei Pana si delcaratia lu Amy a fost totala .
1. Eu nu o consider pe Amy un idol, doar o respect pentru muzica ei si pentru ce a facut pentru Ev.
2. Nu acuz nici pe Amy, nici pe John, nici pe Rocky ... pentru ca adevarul cred ca este undeva la mijloc.
3. M-am hotarat sa nu mai dau importanta prea mare subiectului fiindcă ... fie ca ne-a mintit Amy, fie ca nu, fie ca ne-a mintit Rocky sau John fie ca nu... pana la urma Ev tot in formula care este acum este ... si va ramane ( sa speram ) si momentul inapoi nu il mai putem da ... fiecare a luat-o pe drumul lui deci ... GooD LucK ... si sa speram ca Ev va avea viata lunga  .
Ce mai declaratie si pe asta de la Mourningside  . 'Om trai si 'om vedea pana in Noiembrie ce se mai intampla . Sper sa nu aiba dreptate. ... si pana la urma ... toti suntem oameni ... mai gresim si noi ... trist este ca tot timpul cand intr-o trupa intervin banii si faima ... apar si rupturile  , neintelegerile, confuziile etc. |

| Quote: | Jimmy Lecompt's Recent MySpace Bulletin: 23 May 07
There are some things I wanna point out about this.
..from MTV Archives:
Amy Lee spoke candidly about her recent marriage and the recent departure of two Evanescence members in a post on the band's message board over the weekend. Calling marriage "the most incredible thing to happen in my life so far," Lee explained that she returned from her honeymoon and "discovered the fact that I was unable to defend myself for a week [and] was taken advantage of quite a bit." Lee said guitarist John LeCompt and drummer Rocky Gray, who left the lineup earlier this month and were recently replaced by Dark New Day's Will Hunt and Troy McLawhorn, "both made it clear they were ready to move on." LeCompt and Gray "were very vocal about the fact that they didn't really care about Evanescence at all and just stayed around for the money," the post continued. "They were miserable. They are no longer playing with us because I love this band too much to see it driven into the ground." Lee also said that Gray didn't quit, as he's claimed; she contends he was fired after weeks of threatening to quit. ...
--Anyone who could actually take this music seriously is a no talent, very unoriginal music lover. Of course my brother and Rocky were miserable, what kind of band mate has Josh Freese and other in-studio musicians play on the recordings instead of her own guys. What kind of person fires people over the phone, then tells the media that the band "parted ways" only to retract her statement after the two musicians defended themselves. Amy Lee. I'd say they are doing what any other person should do, and that is getting away from your horrible songwriting which lacks anything Ben Moody ever put into this band by the way.
You claim this band is your heart...how about putting some heart into your group as well. I can't really feel for your new line-up, Will Hunt and the Dark New Day band were awesome. But this isn't Dark New Day... it is a generic rip off of Lacuna Coil. They will find out shortly just how you are. Wow, Amy Lee is so gothic! You are about as goth as those ten year olds who worship you. You have lied to my brother and everyone else involved in this circle, and have always put yourself on a pedistal. Every video and every promo pic, you are up front and they are the blurry guys. Your big forehead is on the first cover alone, as well as The Open Door.
You talk about emotions and now you talk about rocking harder, but in the past 4 years you have managed to lead your way into a band with no original members except yourself. You sit on your 15+ Million dollars while others didn't make half of a million while touring with you all this time. You have no emotions toward people which always made me feel sick because you always put up a front toward everyone...not just our familys, but toward your fans to.
For anyone who believes in true music, Evanescence is a jip. |

Am mai zis si pe ev.it...Daca prietenii lor zic astfel de cuvinte despre formatia in care au cantat 4 ani, despre Amy si chiar despre fani...atunci nu imi pare rau ca au plecat...

Mda dar incepe sa se adevereasca ce a scris in el (in mesajul lui jimmy ... si altele) . Ce a spus despre fani ?
Eu zic ca si din cauza asta s-au certat ... Amy vroia sa ia o pauza (ca de .. iubirea ) si ei n-au vrut . Si-au zis cateva cuvinte grele ... astia au plecat Arkannas ... Amy il suna pe John (probabil el a evervat-o cel mai tare ) ... pa John ... aude Rocky ... Rocky ii spune pa la Amy ... si cam asta . Oricum nu o sa stim niciodata ce s-a intamplat cu adevarat. |

STATEMENT FROM ROCKY GRAY...
FROM ROCKY GRAY
-----------------------------------------------
What up!
Here's whats going on everybody. I don't really have the time to play with the Machina guys right now because i've been busy getting the Soul Embraced record together and doing shows with them, which is all i've been doing since the Ev departure. I don't want to hold the guys back by any means, and as you can see by all the tour dates, Machina is crazy busy too. So for everyone to keep moving forward, I really need to not be with the band and let them get someone like Justin Carder, who is dedicated to the band and is ready to go. If they waited on me nothing would get done.
So Justin Carder, who John and I have both worked with in the past, and who has amazing skills behind the kit will be taking over for me. My leaving is bitter sweet because these guys are all my really good friends and it's a lot of fun playing with them, but also now i'll be able to see the guys perform and see them on t.v. Maybe our bands can do some shows together, preferably sometime in the near future before they sell a million records and we have to buy on the tour 
It's been a blast and all the Machina fans are awesome!
Thanks for everything and God bless you all!

MACHINA WISHES ROCKY THE BEST IN HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS WITH SOUL EMBRACED. HE WILL BE MISSED AS A PERFORMER AND FRIEND!!! BUT HE'S NOT DEAD HAHA-SO WE PLAN ON DOING SOME SHOWS TOGETHER, AND WE ARE VERY HAPPY THAT HE IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS TO DO- WRITE HIS OWN SONGS AND PLAY GUITAR FOR HIS OWN BAND!! THIS IS SOMETHING ROCKY HAS BEEN WORKING ON FOR YEARS- AND NOW IS THE TIME FOR SOUL EMBRACED TO REACH IT'S FULLEST POTENTIAL !! UNFORTUNATELY FOR US, THIS MEANS NOT PLAYING DRUMS FOR MACHINA. ON THE POSITVE- WE HAVE AN AMAZING DRUMMER WE WANT TO WELCOME INTO THE FAMILY OF MACHINA- JUSTIN CARDER-A.K.A. "THA CARDER." YOU MAY KNOW HIM AS THE DRUMMER FOR JOHN'S FORMER BAND, "MINDRAGE," OR THE SINGER OF LITTLE ROCKS' "CHASING THE FALL." JUSTIN HAS ALSO PLAYED DRUMS ON SONGS FOR SOUL EMBRACED RECORDS AS WELL IRONICALLY;) HE HAS BEEN APART OF THE LOCAL AND SOUTH/MIDWESTERN SCENE FOR YEARS(SINCE HE WAS 15), AND WE ARE STOKED TO CONTINUE TO PLAY WITH A DRUMMER AS TALENTED AND DEDICATED AS JUSTIN. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN- PLEASE WELCOME MACHINA'S NEW DRUMMER-JUSTIN CARDER.
GOD BLESS-
MACHINA |
