Title: Evanescence
Post by: kev222 on March 02, 2003, 03:21:52 pm
Well Kev's not doing it. So I will :-P

Evanescence are essentially a rock band with female vocals. 'So what?' I hear you cry. 'There are a million of those bands'. Well that's true, but not like this one there isn't. I'm not telling lies, they are the best band I've heard in a long, long time. You'd be a fool not check them out.

Their first on-label album (entitled Fallen) will be released on March 4th (2 days). They have a ton of material recorded before that, which can be found all over KaZaA and the yahoo groups. Their range is spectacular: from moving piano ballads to hard rock stuff and a bunch of things in between. Download some of their stuff (it's not available to buy) and check it out.

All the info you'll need about the band can be found here [exodus]Evanescence (http://www.exodusevanescence.com), this is an un-official site, but it's been around a lot longer than the official one and it's a lot better. Links to the official stuff, yahoo groups, livejournal community, etc. can all be found in the links section.

P.S. An interview and small acoustic set is available here (http://www.kev.nu/ev).

well, i was wondering how long before someone would post about Evanescence!  I had noticed the lack of them on the list the other day.  I really like the song Even in Death and i dig the fact that they performed it on dc101, even with all their newer material they could have tried to promote!  I, as well, highly recommend you check out this group.  They're very talented and enjoyable to listen to.  I like how even the live rip from Kev shows how amazingly talented their lead singer (Amy Lee) is.  Her voice is beautiful.

ack! you beat me to it!

Yes everyone needs to check this band out! They WILL hook you! From the first time I heard "Bring Me To Life" I was sold! Yet that was only the tip of the iceburg. Like Kev said, their music spans many genres from hard rock, numetal, to Vanessa-type piano ballads, so there is something for everyone to lach onto!
Every Vanessa fan should download "My Immortal"! Its a beautiful piano ballad I think everyone would love!

Man, I waited for at least 3 weeks. I couldn't resist any longer. The world needs to know!

Arrgh the evil N word :-/ Kev is totally right of course, but lovers of the guitar lead need not be put off. While numetal has sealed it's fate as a passing fad by abondoning all difficult guitar parts and leads, Ben can actually play. Also, they're not overdone, but there are even a few glorious solos to tingle the spine. And that's saying nothing of the vast gulf in quality between your average numetal band's writing and vocals and Ev's (none of this angry shouty screamy crap). Evanescence is NOT a numetal band!

Sorry, numetal is just a personal prejudice of mine >:-) Carry on.

Title: mix tape? anyone?
Post by: kaysha on March 07, 2003, 07:15:27 pm
ok... so this is kinda a difficult question as there is a lot of Ev material out there...

If you had to make an Evanescence mix tape, what songs/what versions of what songs, would you include on your tape???

I can't decide.. i was thinking about this the other night.  there is no easy solution.

Post by: kev222 on March 07, 2003, 07:31:04 pm
I actually made one yesterday, it was a mix CD so I was dealing with 76 mins instead of a tape's 90 (90 would have been easy!). It was rushed, but here's what I ended up with. Not in this order.

Understanding - Ev EP
My Immortal (piano-vocal) - Unreleased
My Immortal (unreleased) - Mystery EP
Anywhere - Origin
Haunted - Fallen
Everybody's Fool - Fallen
Imaginary 2.0 - Demo Takes
Hello - Fallen
Going Under - Fallen
Breathe No More - DemoCD
Even In Death - DemoCD
So Close - Ev EP
Taking Over Me - Fallen
My Last Breath - Demo Takes
Before The Dawn - unreleased
Whisper2002 - Demo CD
Away From Me - Origin
Bring Me To Life - Demo CD (Without McCoy!)

Haha, I knew that someone was going to beat you to it if you didn't do it. That is why I nudged you, lol. Anyway, Evanescence is a great band, if you're willing to give them a chance. Some people are just too close-minded at times to do so. But hey, that is them. I love their music, and their new CD, Fallen, is fantastic. :)

Someone that posted in nik's Anti-Ev thread on the VC-O-MB, who had tried BMTL & My Immortal, just didnt like them and thought we were overdoing it.... I had them download a few more...

Quote from: "Converted User"

Its not enough for them to buy the CD, but at least they wont be hating on the band anymore. hehe

Yes! Finally the Ev thread has more responses than the Las Ketchup thread. I was starting to fear that it wouldn't ever happen :-/

I was always on about them to a friend of mine at uni and she downloaded the stuff from mp3.com and listened to the clips from the album. She wants to buy it, but the lightweight won't pay for the import, pfft.

But of course i didn't know i had already heard one of their songs and loved it! then my bro came home w/ the cd! and noooooow i have it and i listen to it like 24/7. they are soo awesome. I would love to sing in a group like, it reminds me of my childhood and listen to all the bands my bros used to listen to!

Its going for $13.99 at Best Buy. I thought the whole music settlement thing was supposed to correct price gouging.
You should have got it opening week for 9.99, or was 3 months notice not enough time?  (http://www.blackvulture.com/vanessa/icons/wink.gif) lol! Its all good as long as you pick it up eventually.

You've never heard of the grim reaper?  check out http://grimreaper.org/

He came out in SLC with the hood on and that huge cap/coat thing, and had a mask on (in the dark) with his guitar around him.  The crowd went CRAAAAAAAZY

yea, it took me a while ... i was like "who is that?  what are they doing?  holy shit it's ben!  omg he's in a grim reaper costume!"... mind you it was REALLY dark in there ;)

First song played in full dress, then took off mask
second song played with just the coat thingy on, then took it off

he looked really hot by that time already and amy was out of breath... they work so hard during their shows.

the thing i thought was most funny was at the end when ben and amy both took a drink of water, looked at each other, then he spit his all over her face then turned around and ran away.  She then spit at him but he was already headed the other direction... :)

Then she took a few minutes wiping her face off!  teehee :)

Okay, when I get around to it, I'll add you both ;)

Perl and PHP both have my respect. Although Perl is impossible to remember.

Example perl code: *^££$$£%===~~__/£££$ > "echo" <>£^&%&!"¬!!"£!

I was gonna code it in good old C (king among languages). But i might code the HTML parsing part in haskell (cos it kicks ass).

Hehe, The original soul embraced version of "My Tourniquet" is fantastic. If it wasn't for the death metal vocals (which I'm not really into) I'd even prefer it to Ev's cover. Good stuff :)

It def puts a different spin on the song. At first it was just like noise to me, but when I was able to listen and follow along to the lyrics, it was kinda cool.

I know what you mean about the singing though, I'm not keen on the death metal grunts and growls in general. It's a shame because death metal guitarists are second to no other genre.

Only "Bring Me To Life" has the Linkin Park vibe cause they got Paul from the 12 Stones to guest on it. Download "My Immortal" & "Imaginary" which will show you other sides of their music.

HI!

Well... i just got back from NYC... drove up with a friend.  Got to listen to Evanescence - BMtL 7 times on the way up and back (radio stations... not bad).  One of the radio stations commented on how they sound like Linkin Park -- pissed me off.  Also when they introduce the song they never say "featuring Paul McCoy."  I wish they would grow a brain and realize that it's just Amy in 99.9% of the songs AND even the version of BMtL without Paul sounds 100x better.  what a pisser...

yeh... like MTV is a good source for info... pssh
Once upon a time they had a really dumb band name and were looking for something new.
Ben is the creative type... he liked the letter "E" cause he could do several artistic designs with it. So they litterally took a dictionary and browsed through the E's and came across "Evanescent", Amy especially liked the meaning behind it: a ghostly fading away type of thing. And so they took the plural of it and thus became "Evanescence".

Post by: kaysha on April 01, 2003, 10:07:08 pm
they were playing Going Under at acoustic sets in Europe etc so that is what leads people to believe Going Under is next.

I think even though My Immortal is really pertty, they'll go with another upbeat rock song.  People think they sound to linkin parkish because of Bring Me to Life having a male vocal presence of Paul McCoy.  Going Under would get them out of that i think/hope ;)

Maybe My Immortal will be after Going Under to show the variance in their style... both heavy rock and slow ballads... that would be cool

In case anyone cared, I got the R&R numbers from the alternative chart for Ev again this week. The numbers aren't as promising as they were last week, as Linkin Park is gaining some breathing room at number one and Audioslave is trying to make a resurgence towards the top. Also, Ev didn't make a very substantial gain this week, so BMTL may be at the peak of its popularity, but we will see. In any case, here are the numbers

Quote from: "R&R"
  1   Linkin Park  Somewhere I Belong (Warner Bros.)   3193 (LW 3052)
2   Evanescence  Bring Me To Life (Wind-up)   3080 (LW 3050)
4   Audioslave  Like A Stone (Interscope/Epic)   2915 (LW 2861)
3   Red Hot Chili Peppers  Can't Stop (Warner Bros.)   2911 (LW 2897)
5   Foo Fighters  Times Like These (Roswell/RCA)   2477 (LW 2536)
6   Trapt  Headstrong (Warner Bros.)   2379 (LW 2214)


... and because I'm sure Kevin is interested, "Going Under" garnered 14 plays on KNDD last week :)

Yes... but it only gained 30 plays this week, which is weak as hell considering they had been on the most increased plays list for about a month and a half up until the last two weeks. Plus LP gained a lot of breathing room, so that pretty much shoots hitting #1 down the drain unless they gain a bunch of airplay back this week.

It was a decent review....

"Finally a band that both P.O.D. and Tori Amos fans can agree on."

"Call it a case of mistaken identity. Evanescence's hit "Bring Me To Life" doomed the Arkansas group to a life of Linkin Park comparisons, thanks to the song's digital beats, clean metal-guitar riffs, scattered piano lines and all-too-familiar mix of rapping and singing. The gimmick? It's a woman on the mike, and she's on a mission from God. When vocalist Amy Lee croons about lying "in my field of paper flowers" or "pouring crimson regret," she gives Fallen a creepy spiritual tinge that the new-metal boys lack. Sometimes the band even helps her out, adding ghostly echoes and ghoulish industrial noises to the aptly titled "Haunted" or, better yet, leaving her the hell alone."

They are also #5 on the Hot List and on the top 40 albums list and at the bottom it says "A twenty-one-year old Tori Amos fan from Arkansas breathes life into the dying embers of new metal. Evanescence: Chick Metal"

Good friend of mine lives in Corpus Christi, TX.
Ev is playing a concert there in just over a month.
Only TODAY did she finally hear Bring Me To Life for the first time on the radio. Only 4¼months behind the rest of the country. And that's their rock station. Pop stations get some breathing room, but there's no excuse for a rock station to wait that long.... especially when its the #2 single in the country. Were they hoping it would quietly go away?? HA! I think not!

Just for entertainment purposes, this is what The Rave has up for the concert information / preview:

Although the band’s name suggests a sudden disappearance, Evanescence is poised for longevity. Their beautifully brooding tracks My Immortal and the hit Bring Me to Life figure prominently in the recent blockbuster Daredevil, nicely complimenting the storyline’s dramatic, eerie undertones. But these songs just hint at their wide array of sensuous, bass-infested tracks that evoke pensive artists like Tori Amos. In a seriously successful endeavour, lead singer Amy Lee’s intoxicating vocals give the tunes a creepy spiritual tinge that their contemporaries lack, backed by ghostly echoes and ghoulish industrial effects. Don’t miss their first Milwaukee appearance on May 20!

I'm like... SHOCKED. The Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness album sold like 10 million albums, was one of the biggest grunge albums, right there with Nirvana's Nevermind. Why does no one know "Zero" from the Mellon Collie album??? I even had to rip the MP3 for Kat last night.
However, I know Evanescence will do a version thats much much better than the original.

ooh wow, i would just die if i heard them do My Immortal live, i adore that song so much- so simple yet so powerful.

I think if they have good enough promotion they should become the next big thing here.

They are getting their video played on Kerrang every half hour or so :) Plus the DD movie was good UK promo for them. London radio is playing it a lot too (so I hear). The album is out on the 28th, I think it'll do well :D

Evanescence

With so many up and coming stars, sometimes it's best to do something to standout. With their dark-rock sound and a vocalist who was truly born to sing, Evanescence has found their something.

They have recently released Fallen, their first album on a major label. Fallen debuted at number 7 on the Billboard charts in March, and is still going strong. It was just certified gold and has been in the top 10 since its release. The album ranges from heavy rock to soft piano. There is truely something for everyone. The first single, "Bring Me To Life" features Paul McCoy of 12 Stones and has been tearing it up on the charts. It’s upbeat and catchy and has a great video that really fits the mood of the song. The lyrics are always deep, sometimes a little sad, and totally memorable. They are filled with everything from hurt and unhappiness to hope and loss. Their songs speak to every audience.

With musical influnces such as Bjork, Tori Amos, and Danny Elfman, Evanescence has a sound all it's own. During the mid-90s, the band felt out of place in the Midwest where their sound was so different from everything else. Nevertheless, they became local radio favorites. The two founding members of the group are guitarist Ben Moody, and vocalist Amy Lee. They met each other at camp, and since then have been working on the band. For a while, the two of them couldn't play shows because they didn't have a backing band. After adding John LeCompt on guitar and Rocky Gray on drums, Evanescence was ready to roll.

Having two songs placed on the soundtrack to the highly anticipated Daredevil was a great thing for the band. It gave them a chance to really get some of their music out there and establish a national fanbase before their album was released. The fanbase they got is highly loyal and great at spreading the word. The shows they have done in the past few months have been highly successful and some have even sold out. It won't be long before this band is selling out huge arenas everywhere.

Recommended songs are “My Immortal” (a favorite for many people), “Everybody’s Fool”, and “Imaginary”. Check them out and find out for yourself why Evanescence is here to stay.

(4/16/03, 5 p.m. ET) -- Evanescence's interview in the April 18 issue of Entertainment Weekly has created a stir in the Christian music world. As a result, the band's label, Wind-Up Records, is pulling its album from Christian music stores.

Vocalist Amy Lee said in the interview, "There are people that are hell-bent on the idea that we're a Christian band in disguise, and that we have some secret message. We have no spiritual affiliation with this music. It's simply about life experience." Lee adds, "I guarantee that if the Christian bookstore owners listened to some of those songs, they wouldn't sell the CD."

Lee's band mate Ben Moody said in the interview, "I'm not ashamed of my spiritual beliefs, but I in no way incorporate them into this band. We're actually high on the Christian charts, and I'm like, What the f--k are we even doing there?"


Evanescence is signed to the same label as spiritually leaning acts such as Creed and 12 Stones. The band's first single from its album Fallen was "Bring Me To Life," featuring 12 Stones vocalist Paul McCoy. The track performed well at Christian radio, and Wind-Up was distributing the album to Christian music stores.

The band's comments apparently got the attention of the Christian music community -- as well as the band's label. Wind-Up recently recalled Evanescence albums and singles from Christian stores and radio stations.

In a letter dated April 10, posted on the Christian Music Central (cmcentral.com) Website, Wind-Up records chairman Alan Meltzer explained to retailers that "despite having roots within the Christian community prior to the release of Fallen, recent statements by band members have made it abundantly clear that Evanescence is a secular band and view their music as entertainment. No more, no less. As such, we strongly feel that they no longer belong in Christian retail outlets."


Meltzer also wrote, "I have no issues or problems with the band not wanting to promote a religious agenda. That is their opinion. How it has been handled is a separate issue. That being said, I do have a problem with misrepresenting the artist to the Christian community. That is not and has never been the intent of Wind-Up or the band. Nevertheless, it is quite apparent that the landscape has now changed...I apologize for what has become an unfortunate and embarrassing situation."


The label reportedly requested that Christian stores pull all of the band's products by June 30.

I am sure it will be top 7-5 next week, if not higher. It gained 1200+ plays just in this last week, and is the most added song. So you figure it will continue for the next few weeks.

She said they were going to be big and that Bring Me to Life is huge in the states. She also told people to go to the website (are you experiencing a major influx of UK fans now!?) and then she spelt it out, lol.

She then got a txt later saying 'u have no idea how long i have been waiting to hear this, its like a mix between mariah carey and linkin park.'
She said 'i'm not sure if thats a compliment, and i've been playing it for quite a few weeks now!'

Hmmm Radio One= the master of all single sales in the UK. lol

lol. Nope because they closed down the official message board ;) The forum I go to (and the other peeps too) is an unofficial one on http://www.exodusevanescence.com (the first and best ev fan site ;)). The Ev o-board was always a huge bag of crap (a million times worse than the VC o-board is now :-\). But yeah, I imagine a few more UK peeps will show up. I hope so, so far I seem to be the only regular UK member :(

I <3 the band.  The interview was uber good.  Amy didn't come as she couldn't talk until performance time... i guess the tour has been pretty taxing and with three shows back to back Fri - Sun they didn't want her talking in the interview... INSTEAD we got Ben, Will, John AND Rocky!  :D

Ben is such a silly dude... the concert was great... My Immortal sent chills up my spine.  i'm already trying to figure out when/where i can see them next!  they need to do more weekend shows and less weekday shows dammit :)

i have a question.  If you add all the airplay from each chart for all the various popular songs... is Ev beating all the other songs?  they seem to be on quite a few charts...
Title: Evanescence
Post by: B on April 23, 2003, 02:08:52 pm
I'd have to say no on that one. If nothing else, "When I'm Gone" and "In Da Club" are probably beating it, but it is probably a close race. Just from the numbers we have there (and I don't have any composite numbers from charts where they may be in 50th place or lower) they have 10,590 plays.

EDIT :

"When I'm Gone" = 14026 plays
"In Da Club" = 10791 plays

... I am pretty confident "Bring Me To Life" is probably somewhere in the top 5-10, along with Linkin Park and probably Christina and Avril.

EDIT 2 (LOL :

Actually, looking at the numbers BMTL is PROBABLY (don't set that in stone) #3 in total plays due to its wide-spread exposure. A lot of songs are only on one or two types, as to where Ev is on 5. That is an excellent question you brought up, thanks :)

I can't tell you Andrew, I wish I could LOL.

...

I compiled the numbers from the charts, and 3 Doors Down "When I'm Gone" is STILL the overwhelmingly most played song when you add up all of the plays from all of the formats it gets plays on with 13554 plays. The good news, this week Ev is #2 and gained 1142 plays on 5 formats this week. 50 Cent's "In Da Club" is losing steam, as it comes in third with 10160 plays on 2 formats.

She's the lead singer!
Bring Me To Life had Paul from the 12 Stones doing guest vocals. Thats the only one he's on.
Everything else is all Amy Lee!  :)

Good news, and bad news this week.

Bad : BMTL drops to #3 on the alternative charts, and loses plays while doing it.

Good : BMTL is closing the gap on "When I'm Gone" for the most played song overall on all of the different formats. These are the numbers for this week.

BMTL                  WIG

6475                   7283 - CHR/Pop
1765                   3088 - Hot AC
3015                   1088 - Alternative
1012                   743 - Active Rock
220                     538 - Rock

12487                 12740

:) ... Maybe next week if that pop number keeps expanding, and the alternative number cam jump, they can take over #1  :D

And so I bought it and ever since I haven't taken it out of my portable CD player!! lol and i have it saved in my computer so I listen to it non-stop. I love all the songs on the album. I have a ton of the Demo versions of songs on my computer. I adore them. My favorites are so close,my immortal(demo version), my last breath,taking over me,going under,and everybodys fool! Amy's voice rocks! she is awsome. And Ben's guitar playing skills amaze me! They are terrific! Now I can't wait for there next single to come out!! haha

here goes my first post in this thread!!
So, all you people been raving about this Evan scene thing. I totally didn't know what it was when it was at the VCB. I never opened the thread. I thought it was Vanessa's name in some random way. Anyhow...I heard the song on the radio and I am surprised, well maybe not, that it is playing on the pop station as well.

When I was in CA Joe gave me a copy of the cd. I listened to it at the airport and I was like ehhh...it's ok, and her voice is kinda blah. So when Danny picked me up he told me, I think Joe did too, that I need to listen to it again...well I have and it's pretty good. I dig it!! And Danny got us tickets for the show on the 30th so yay!! I look foward to the live show, Katia said one of the songs I like is done really cool.

So yeah...

Those were some damn fun threads! It was 1-2 months before the rest of the country picked up on em, they were brand new to everyone and hearing about everyone's first reaction to em. Good times!

They're blowing up on the top 40 / TRL circuit. Rock stations picked up up first and show them the most airplay, but once Daredevil hit, the pop stations started playing it too. Once KIIS in LA started playing it, you know its gone mainstream.

You're gonna have the BEST time!! I'm jealous. I've seen them once, and cant wait to again. They have great stage presence, Ben is just crazy, and is quite impresive and entertaining to watch :)  and Amy... *dies*  she's gorgous.

What could this accurate new nail-head-hitting description be?

".....They sound like Linkin Park with a female singer!".

Brad's response was pretty interesting.

Quote from: "Brad"
Actually, Wind Up DOES own the rights to Origin. They own all of Evanescence's
music. This includes the self-titled EP and Sound Asleep. This is why Bigwig
Enterprises or Evanescence themselves cannot simply make more copies of those
projects to supply the demands of fans.

I wonder if they'll clamp down on non-CDR origin and EP bids. If they do, it can only push up the value even more :) (not that I'd ever sell).

20 Evanescence  Bring Me To Life (Wind-up)   233

OVERALL TIMES PLAYED NUMBERS

What I did was look at all of the formats for the most popular songs on radio right now, and found out how many times they were played, and added it up. This is what it looks like this week :

7. Justin Timberlake  Rock Your Body (Jive) - 3 Formats, 11333 total plays.

6. 3 Doors Down  When I'm Gone (Republic/Universal) - 5 Formats, 11978 total plays.

5. 50 Cent  21 Questions (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope) - 3 Formats, 12075 total plays.

4. 50 Cent  In Da Club (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope)  - 3 Formats, 12356 total plays.

3. Evanescence  Bring Me To Life (Wind-up) - 5 Formats, 13228 total plays.

2. R. Kelly  Ignition (Jive) - 3 Formats, 13802 total plays.

1. Sean Paul  Get Busy (40/VP/Atlantic) - 3 Formats, 14368 total plays.

I was kind of dissapointed that Ev was third, I didn't expect R. Kelly and Sean Paul to have so many plays on the CHR/Rhythmic chart, otherwise Ev would have been #1. At least BMTL finally beat "When I'm Gone" :)

I figured I'd put my review of the show in here too ;)

It was an awesome show, I guess I will start with the basics. I am doing the setlist from my head because they made me get rid of my pen (yes, you couldn't have pens, WTF LOL). Maybe Kimber or JB can correct me if I screw up:

Going Under
Haunted
Taking Over Me
Everybody's Fool
My Last Breath
Farther Away
Even In Death
Zero
Bring Me To Life
Tourniquet
Imaginary
Whisper

Ev didn't go on until 10:45 p.m., but there were still more than enough songs to satisfy.  :D. From what I could tell (by this time I was pretty much standing near the door behind a pole, LOL), John did the lyrics for BMTL and not Paul.

The show didn't start until 8, Reach 454 was decent (yet unhearable, the sound kind of sucked lol) and threw out free demo CD's and one happened to plunk me in the shoulder and I had the reflexes to grab it with people trying to push me forward onto Kimber and everyone else. By the time 12 Stones came on the entire section we were in (Kimber and I had gotten up to the front center four people from the stage) turned into the Paul McCoy mosh pit/push everyone every which way just for fun pit, so I took that as a chance to go get one of the Ev posters from the merch stand (and eventually meet JB). I didn't really watch Juliana Theory either, but they got booed for some reason or another, despite a good majority of people saying they were there to see Juliana Theory :?.  I made my way back into the Rave for Ev, and as I said above it was an awesome show.

I was actually able to meet Amy (http://www.uwm.edu/~briancw2/fallen-brian2.jpg) before the show, which was pretty cool and I saw Rocky walking around the venue but he was talking to people and I didn't want to bug him. Overall it was a really cool day. Getting to meet Kimber, JB, and Amy was a pleasure, and Evanescence put on one hell of a show.

The Evanescence Of Love

  Now that we know what the story is between Jack and Meg White (they where married and are now divorced) we have to turn our attention to another NMC eCharting "couple"-- Ben Moody and Amy Lee of Evanescence.

We're not the only ones who wonder what deal is between Ben and Amy. During an intervew with VH1 Amy said people are always asking whether the dynamic duo are friends or lovers.

"People want to bring it up because we're the same age and we've known each other forever. All these articles hint at it by calling us writing soul mates, which we are. We're really close. I've only written with Ben all this time; we do share something intimate. He took me to my senior prom!" she said.

Notice how she didn't really answer the question there? Hmmm.

Just found out today they will be in LA the next day! WTF! that's like zero notice, just as expensive. GRRR Also it means the band prolly wont be able to hang out much after our Mountain View show.
And to top it off, Staind will be at the LA show.
However I'll be seeing Staind the following weekend so its not a total loss.

Don't know if anyone has posted about this already. I just read Ev are going to be playing in this music festival in Barcelona June 21st instead of Linkin Park (their lead singer is sick so they can't come). The event is called Doctor Music Festival. Here's the link to where I found the info, for those of you who understand Spanish:

I just saw them performing at Pinkpop (festival in The Netherlands) in front of 50.000 people! They replaced Linkin Park. Here are some pics:

(http://images.vpro.nl/img.db?12420556)

(http://images.vpro.nl/img.db?12420554)


Review of their performance for those of you who speak dutch (also taken from the festival site):

De Amerikaanse band slingert veel gitaargeweld het veld in, maar de meeste subtiele accenten van de cd ontbreken of zijn niet te horen, zodat het vijftal live lelijk door de mand valt.
CONCERT:
Evanescence, maandag 9 juni, Zuid-podium
 
MUZIEK:
Metal met invloeden uit diverse richtingen binnen het genre. We horen (vooral op de recente cd, live valt er het nodige weg) bijvoorbeeld een vleugje gothic en een vleugje nu metal. Ook klassieke invloeden zijn aanwezig.
 
PLUS:
Het beukt allemaal lekker door, maar veel meer pluspunten zijn nauwelijks aan te voeren.

MIN:
De subtiele accenten die het album zo bijzonder maken, zijn live nauwelijks te horen. Nu had de band weliswaar in diverse interviews al gemeld dat de sound live een stuk harder is - en dat is op zich okee - maar dan moet je niet allerlei wezenlijke onderdelen op het podium laten ondersneeuwen. Daar komt nog bij dat zangeres Amy Lee eigenlijk alleen goed te horen is tijdens de rustige stukken, want als de twee gitaristen gaan beuken, valt haar stem veel te ver weg. Door bovengenoemde missers lijken de songs vrij eenvormig en inwisselbaar. Kortom, de groep presenteert live weinig spannende metal. Het publiek raakt dan ook niet echt in vervoering en daar kunnen de vele complimenten die Amy Lee (te vaak) het veld inslingert weing aan veranderen. Menigeen veert eigenlijk alleen op bij het hitje Bring Me To Life.
 
CONCLUSIE:
Evanescence leek vooraf een van de weinige aardige verrassingen op Pinkpop 2003 - de groep viel in voor Linkin Park - maar valt live lelijk door de mand.
 
CIJFER:
4

This might help the English peeps-Vulture
Quote from: "freetranslation"
The American tie not swings many guitar violence the field in, but the most subtle accents of the cd be missing or be, to hear, so that the five live ugly through the basket falls.  CONCERT: Evanescence, Monday 9 June, South-stage

MUSIC: Metal with influences from various richtingen within the genre.  We hear (especially on the recent cd, live falls it the necessary way) for instance a touch gothic and a touch now metal.  Also classic influences are present.  

PLUS: It beats all well through, but many more pluspunten scarcely on be to be led.  

LOVE: De subtle accents that the album so particularly make, be live scarcely to hear.  Now that had the tie indeed in various interviews all gemeld that the sound live a piece is more fast - and that is on self okee - only then must you not jumble essential parts on the stage let ondersneeuwen.  In addition singer Amy Borrow actual alone good to to hear is during the calm pieces, for as the two gitaristen be to beat, falls her voice much too far away.  Through above-mentioned missers appear the songs court uniform and inwisselbaar.  In short, the group presents live little exciting metal.  The public hits then also not real in ecstasy and at that can the many compliments that Amy Borrow (too often) the field inslingert weing change.  Many a person be springy actual alone on by the hitje Bring Me To Life.  

CONCLUSION: Evanescence appeared beforehand an of the little nice surprises on Pinkpop 2003 - the group fell in for Linkin Park - only falls live ugly through the basket.

Hey everybody,
I saw EV on Dutch tv last monday at Pinkpop 2003.
It's a big event in Holland, with a lot of good bands.

I have recorded a part of the show from Ev here is the tracklist.
1 ?
2 My Last Breath
3 Bring me to life
4 Tourniquet
5 Imaginary
6 Whisper
7 Even in Death

I have the songs in mp3, shn, or audio cd. So maybe anybody wants it to share with the others if you like, to put it on a server or something.

news bit:
However, Cold's agent gives a bit of hope for the band's future. Daryl Eaton's office at Creative Artists Agency said the band will be touring with Evanescence sometime this year, although the agency is waiting on Evanescence to confirm the dates.
 Evanescence have just pulled out of their plans as well. They had a short European tour all set to go but were forced to postpone when lead guitarist Ben Moody was found to be suffering from a lung illness, according to their European concert promoter, Marek Lieberberg. Dates for that look to be rescheduled in the autumn.

yep! I got the video, and it's by far the best! Amy is looking beautiful as ever, the underwater stuff was hella cool; and Ben is straight guitar-god rocking on stage then crowd surfing on his back...
And of course the final twist, I dare you not to jump the first time you see that!

I am not sure if that is going to be a true statement for Danny.

The show was cool. It was an MTV taping, "Hard Rock Live." They actually had to tape "Going Under" and "Bring Me To Life" twice cause the sound was crap, well I think they said her vocals were weak. But the sound was crap if you ask me. She sat down and sang, while the band and us rocked out, it was cute. She looked great, btw.

I can't tell you the order cause I don't remember, but from what I do remember they did these songs:
#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #10, #11, and two songs I didn't know I am sure you all do though ;)

I was VERY SAD they didn't do "Hello"  :cry:

Post by: superscientific on July 01, 2003, 12:44:39 am
ummm :(

Yeah the show didn't make me a stronger fan....
I know they are not a 100% Yet , but I guess it could of been better.
Amy looked awesome , and My Immortal did ROCK...

The Taping was annoying at some parts but I am sure you will see me , Let or Corey at least once during the Broadcast ....which they said starts July 17th...
When they broke into " enter sandman" by Metallica that was the best part!
The Setlist was the normal setlist I think that they have been playing, with the Zero cover and all....

I still enjoyed it , and will see them again if they come around.  Good experience .  At least I will have something to compare it to.

oh yeah, the Metallica part was cool!!

Ben and the band wanted to play more but Amy stripped Ben of his guitar, the drummer of his cymbal and another piece of the kit. I guess she wanted to go party or something with the family.

I went to the Ev show here tonight in Milwaukee ... this is the review I posted on the EvBoard :

*dries off* I am still wet from the five different times it rained while I was waiting 10 hours for the show LOL. Anyway, here we go.

Setlist -- I could screw it up, but I think this is right

Going Under
Haunted
Taking Over Me
Everybody's Fool
My Last Breath
Farther Away
Even in Death
Zero
Bring Me To Life
Tourniquet
Imaginary

*encore*
My Immortal
Whisper

notes

As I said, it was a pretty wet day, it was sunny until about 3 and then the skies opened up and it rained hard off and on until about 7. I got front row, and JB came at about 2 and joined me up there. During the show I was front and center and he stood on the first row of benches behind me.

It was an awesome show, Ben and Amy threw water on us periodically throughout the show. I got about 20-25 pictures on a disposable that I will need to get developed, and then I will post them up.

I had a sign for Efanar that said "Efanar is the bomb diggity!  :twisted: " ... I held it for most of the show and don't know if Ben saw it, but JB held it up after Whisper when Ben went around throwing water on people and we know he saw it because he pointed at it LOL.

My Immortal live = *dies* ... That was awesome.

More later once I get the pics, but that is a basic wrap up.

Some of them turned out good, some of them not so good. I tried to name them simply so you know what to expect in the pic... most of the pics with Ben you have to look for him because he is lurking in the shadows lol. I know they're not as good as they'd have been on my digi, but enjoy  :D

Interesting Leno performance I must say.
Amy didnt seem quite on her game tonight. Ben played perfectly, and Rocky did this one short drumsolo/riff thing I was like: damn!
And there's a lot of backing tracks used on there too.  :?
So it was a good performance, but nothing outstanding.

Post by: LimeTwister on July 09, 2003, 04:29:40 am
they did something to her volume, or something because it got normal, but when she was singing the verses she would go low along with the volume...but she does have a lot of emotion while singing.

Shockingly I saw the Leno performance last night...I was about to turn him off, cause I don't always watch the interviews...But he said and Evanescence was performing and I got a tape ready. I got it on video tape...But I laughed so hard when he said "Evancents." I was a little dissapointed with the performance but it still kicked butt!

wow.... Evanescence ROCKED at Pepsi Smash tonight! they seroiusly kicked @ss!

before Monica performed i turned around and there was Ben Moody standing in my section like 5-8 rows back. i didnt know what he was doing there, but that was awesome! i couldnt believe i was actually gonna see them live, it was like a dream come true. so seeing him made it hit me that it was all true! i have not been that excited to see someone live since nsync on december 1st, 2000, that was my first concert!

then after Gavin performed i turned around and there was Ben Moody and Amy Lee like 5-8 rows back in my section again! they were watching Gavin finish up and i got Bens attention and smiled and waved at him and he smiled and waved back!  :D i think he's my fave member of the band now! cause he seems SO nice and down to earth! everyone was screaming for them, but Ben got us to quiet down for a lil because they then did an interview with the Everwood girl and then went down to the stage.

It took me awhile to get Amy's attention while they were hanging out on stage before performing, my friend Viv and I tried yelling together and it didnt work... we were only like 10-15 feet away from her but it was very loud in there. then this girl next to me said that we should scream together. it worked! Amy turned around and waved at us, did a lil spin and curtseyed! lol.  :)

They sang "Going Under" first and then "Bring Me To Life." they were soooo good! i loved it and cannot wait to see them again on August 4th! they came back again at the end of the show (after the Ataris made their second appearence) as a surprise and played "Haunted" for us! amazing job! i freaked out when the guy announced Evanescence would be coming back on stage!

i am now a much bigger fan since ive seen them live!

On Pepsi Smash:

I think the performance of BMTL was one of the strongest I've seen them do. John was really on with the vocals and the performance just generally kicked ass. "Going Under" was the same as Leno pretty much, shaky at first but got much better towards the end. I am forming the hypothesis that her voice needs time to warm up, or she is doing that drop it a note at first on purpose.

I thought Going Under was better than Leno . . .and I agree about the male vocals in BMTL.  

Yes, mhmm Kick ass, yep.  I think you covered it.

brian...she is...now i haven't seen her live except on leno and smash...but when i sing going under i always tend to get really low for the first part. (which makes the song hella hard to sing, even though i am a bad singer.)

So I believe that is what she is doing, she gets low at the beginning of the second verse too.

The drop down note just sounds weird live, that is why I was wondering if she has been doing it on purpose or if it is just her voice warming itself. It seems like once she drops it sometimes she can't get the pitch of her voice to go back up for a bit.

Not that I am complaining, because I thought it was a killer performance, just an observation.

Plus both times I have seen them in concert the begining of "Going Under" hasn't sounded like that, so I dunno  :?. It isn't all that big of a deal though.

Post by: aleera84 on July 20, 2003, 09:17:04 pm
Yesterday I got to meet Evanescence  :D , my day started off horribly, I got a call to say that my friend wasnt going to be able to make it so I got a little bit upset because i wasnt sure if i wanted to go by myself so I did any way.
When I got to Mt Druitt Shopping centre I got a bit lost so by the time I got there, there was already 3 lines formed infront of me.
A few minutes of waiting I heard someone calling my and it was my old school friend so I hung out with her.
After waiting 2 and a half hours suddenly Amy and Ben appeared, they walked into a small room on the 2nd story of the shopping centre where they were interviewed by MTV Australia.
15 minutes later Mumma Jugs ( a radio presenter) introduced Amy and Ben to the crowd.
I looked at Amy and nearly died when I saw how pretty she was.
Oh and Ben was spunky aswell.
Mumma Jugs did a short interview with the band and she asked Ben what his favorite thing he had seen in Australia, he replied "The koala's" then Mumma said "You know they bite and scratch, What would you call the koala?" and Ben explained "Id call it Amy because you said they bite and scratch" LOL it made me laugh so much.
After their interview Amy explained that they had been asked to sing only 2 songs but she felt bad because this was the only instore performance so they would sing more then 2 which I thought was so nice of them.
The started off with "Going Under" which was a brilliant choice to start off with.
At the end of the song Amy said she was actually going to sing "Going down under" but she couldnt do it because she would laugh to much, then she started to sing "Im going down under" lol and Ben laughted, it was hilarious.
The next song Ben and Amy played was My Immortal, it showed me how beautiful Amy can sing.
After My Immortal they played a Nirvana song Heart shaped box when the chorus came about Amy laughted and said "I wanted you guys to sing the chorus and she continued.
After the song ended Amy jokingly said "just kidding thats not really our song".
Then after that they sang their number one Australian single "Bring me to life" I sang along to this one so loudly (i also phoned my friend lol).

When they had finished playing acoustic it was time for everyone to meet them, I got so excited that I went all hot.
It wasnt a long wait so when I got up there I was stunned like i always am meeting famous ppl.
First up I met Ben, he was nice and shook my hand and signed my cd but I didnt get to talk to him because this girl behind me talked over the top of me so that was a bit dissapointing.
Next up was Amy, I was looking forward to meeting her the most, I said hello to her and thanked her for signing my cd, she replied your welcome Katie, take care (she knew my name because I had a little note on the cd cover so they spelt my name right.
Then I left, WOO it was so cool and I got a free poster, its so huge.

I had an awesome day and Im glad that I went.

Here is the signed Fallen cd thats all MINE hahaha:

Woot! Yeah Amy is a total sweetheart when it comes to the fans. Except for this one case. Was really funny actually. It was on a Road Trip I and 3 others from Cali went to in Louisianna and at the Lafayette show afterwards Amy and the band except for Ben came out to sign Autographs. So Nate (Blimptor from Evboard) and I were standing there talking to Amy and this little scrawny kid came up asked her to sign his CD, was very polite and the dreaded Question came up.

"Are you guys Christian? Are you a Christian band?"

Amy's face was SO PRICELESS! It went from a  :lol:  to a  :roll: /jawdropping look. The kid left and she was like AAAAAANNNNNNYWAY..... And just smiled. The little things ya know? The body language, and how you can learn from people that way. Was fun times. Glad you had a good encounter and time as well!

As for Ben. To get his attention easier? FLash him.... he seems to be obsessed with boobs.  :twisted:

I wonder if you really do like Evanescence more than Staind now....Which BTW, Staind was number 6 I believe on MTV2's Rock Countdown...Or whaever they call it....LoL!

*sigh* Its a constant battle. Staind is tops because of one thing... Aaron's lyrics and emotion that goes into them. But then there's Vanessa, perfect in every way, and Evanescence which has great songwriting (not as good as Staind), beautiful vocals from Amy and monster guitar riffs from Ben.
All three artists are right there at perfection... I would say I'm the bigger "fanatic" of Vanessa, with Ev a close second, whereas I'm not as fanatical over Staind, but Staind has touched my life so much, that I still gotta keep them #1.

Yeah Kev I have to say I understand...
I have my favs for personal reasons.
Being fanatical and then having music touch your life is different.
I have so many favorites I guess I could not do as you have.
I would have a fav for each music genre.
I guess Vanessa had me more fanatical than any other artist too =)

i'm fans of people for different reasons too...
i guess with my boys (Nsync) ive been a fan for 5 years, and on top of loving their music and thinking they're hot i grew attached to them for another reason too... being a fan of nsync took my attention off of other things that were bothering me in my life, i put the attention that i would normally have other places into my fandom... and they helped me through alot!
with Vanessa a couple of her songs did touch me and is why i'm such a big fan now! A Thousand Miles came out around the time my grandma was dying from cancer/died and that song made her think of her and kinda put me at peace with the whole thing! i cried the first time i heard "Paradise" and that song is one of the main things that helped me overcome a problem.
i'm also a big fan of Samantha Mumba, i really started being a fan when i met her for the first time. and she was one of the sweetest people ive ever met. so besides loving her music i love how down to earth she is! ive met her three times in total now and she gets nicer every time! (she's the only one of my favorites ive listed that ive met)
and Evanescence which is the latest band i'm a big fan of... i think i just became a fan of them cause of their powerful lyrics, great music, and Amy's beautiful voice! and seeing them in concert made me a bigger fan, especially when Ben and Amy were kind enough to wave back at me! a couple of their songs have touched me too... and i love all the songs!

i become fans for many different reasons... but those are the only 4 i'm crazy about now!

The drop down note just sounds weird live, that is why I was wondering if she has been doing it on purpose or if it is just her voice warming itself. It seems like once she drops it sometimes she can't get the pitch of her voice to go back up for a bit.

Not that I am complaining, because I thought it was a killer performance, just an observation.

Plus both times I have seen them in concert the begining of "Going Under" hasn't sounded like that, so I dunno  :?. It isn't all that big of a deal though.
Brian- what notes (part) exactly are you referring to?  She should be doing most warm ups and such prior to even going on stage so it shouldn't be that.  It's very difficult to switch from a low registry to a high registry, so perhaps for things recorded, she just keeps them lower?

But i'm curious what part exactly you're thinking of?

... actually, the more I watch / listen to the live GU performances and kind of think about how the actual song goes, it makes sense how she drops her voice into the lower registry in the begining and brings it back up later ... For some reason when I first heard it, it sounded really weird. I am not phased by it now though ... I think I am just going crazy  :lol:

Post by: kaysha on July 22, 2003, 10:24:59 am
The funny thing is this... the more people discuss it on the evboard the more annoyed i get.  They think she is tired, touring to much, singing to much... etc.  The funny thing is, if you sing properly, you could sing all day everyday without having a problem with your vocals.  I'm willing to bet that Amy knows how to sing properly.  It is also dependant on the temp how easy some notes are to hit.  If you're hot, or your vocals are hot, or the area is hot, she may have a hard time hitting some lower notes (some people do) or perhaps some higher.  I'm pretty sure the beginning of Going Under isn't her lowest note, I doubt she would write a song stretching her vocal range and it just sounds soooo clear.  I think she is just changing it up due to personal preference... keeping it lower, more seductive, etc.  She does keep it lower for all live performances that i've been to/heard.  Especially during "and you, still won't hear me" in the first couple lines.  Also the part "maybe i'll wake up for once" so i thought maybe one of those parts is what you were talking about it.  I think it sounds neat personally.  It's also possible that on the CD, the low notes are in her chest voice, and the higher notes are in her head voice, and she doesn't feel *that* comfortable switching between them on the fly live... i'm not sure.  But i *KNOW* it isn't her getting tired.  Plus, she said she warms up every day and lately has been warming up to Mariah Carey ;)

They're great!  and actually i DID like your bedroom walls.  Now that we're on that topic... ... the style of architecture seems a bit diff than what i'm used to here in America and it's very intriguing.  The paint job is very detailed and the ceiling being white is nice, not to mention the trimming between the ceiling and walls!  (I wouldn't mind seeing more pictures of the house.. *nod*)

That seems like a newer flat with "Bring Me To Life and Going Under" advertised.  I also like how you've pin'd up the Ev CD cover with the autographs.  I also must compliment you on writing your name on a post-it so she could personalize it... very smart (I haven't thought to do that once, yet... duh)

Cheers

I've got the "Daredevil" DVD and they play "My Immortal" for all of one scene, and "Bring Me To Life" for most of another.

When I saw it in theatres I was Anti-Ev (forgive me) and I didn't know any of their songs just by hearing it. So I didn't know then...

Somebody probably already pointed this out...

Post by: Holly on August 04, 2003, 11:41:27 pm
Wow… tonight was amazing! I had such an awesome time!!!! OMG!!!
Viviana and I got there around 12:30 thinking there was gonna be a line… but like no one was and  we ended up getting there way too early! For anyone going to the ,Universal Amphitheater, getting there early doesn’t matter cause they mess everything up!
While we were waiting we met a bunch of other fans. Irwing and Steve were really nice… we talked about music and played card and Steve looks so much like Joey Fatone! Lol. We also talked with the moderator of the ev board (blimpnor?) he was nice, very obsessive, lol… but that’s not a bad thing, I’ve had my obsessions, lol. It was interesting hearing about what he had to say. And then Amy was another girl we met that was nice.
The let us in at about 6 something and we were able to make our way up to the front! We were like front and center, we couldn’t of had better seats!!! While we were waiting for them to set up the stage we saw Ben and we said “Hey Ben!!” he looked at us and was like “My name isn’t Ben!” and then Amy (the fan, not Amy Lee) was like “well you look a lot like him!” and he said “well this Ben guy must be very good looking!” lol
Cauterize started! They were pretty good! Very punk band like! They sang about 5 songs (I think) and Something Beautiful was one of them (I may have the song name wrong, but it’s their single). The drummer was sooo hot! Lol. I was staring at him most the time.
The next band was Revis!! Omg… they were awesome!! I love the songs they sang, but I only remember one name “caught in the rain”. They had had a lot of sound problems up to this point (you couldn’t hear the vocals of cauterize, revis, or cold very well). The lead singer of Revis tried making several hints for them to turn up the mic, tried fixing it himself… but when none of that worked he grabbed the mic infront of the guitarist and used that! During their set, Ben Moody ran onstage and I think he either grabbed or tickled the guitarist! Lol… then the guitarist went to run after Ben (all while still playing). It was like they were playing a game of tag during the song! Lol! Revis sang about 5 songs as well.
The next band was Cold! They sang about 7 or 8 songs I think ( I just know it was more than the first 2 bands). They sang Suffocation (not sure of the name), Stupid Girl… and I recognized one of the songs from A Walk To Remember… but I don’t know the name! they were good!
There isn’t a word to describe how good Evanescence was!!! Seriously amazing!! I want to see them again soooo much!! Don’t miss them when you get the chance to see them!!!
They started out by singing “Haunted” and then Amy said how glad she was to be finally be in LA and that it was night 1 of the tour! She also said it was the first night they were using all new sh!t… lol. Then they did “Going Under”.
Then they did a Smashing Pumpkin’s cover of “wanna go for a ride”. (that’s what someone told me it was… it could be wrong). It was awesome! They kinda had a no doubt kinda vibe for it.
Then they did “taking over me”, “everybody’s fool”, “one last breath” and “farther away”. After farther away they had a long instrumental break with Ben, John, Will and Rocky while Amy ran off stage for a minute or 2.
She soon came back wearing a different outfit. She said it was her first costume change ever in her career and she almost did it in 60 seconds, but it was 68 seconds. Lol. She then started singing “Even In Death” but it didn’t work right so Ben took the mic and said something like “this stuff isn’t built to handle us! We’re tearing it up”. So she started to sing it again and it worked that time.
Then they brought out a mic for John and I knew it was time for “Bring Me To Life”!!! and then Amy said “this is the song that made us big, thanks for calling up and requesting it!” They rocked during this song! John did an awesome job on the vocals!
Then they did Tourniquet which was an amazing performance!!! Everyone was so into it. (well everyone was into their whole set, but there seemed to be extra energy in this one).  Amy then said the next song was going to be the last song of the night and they did “Imaginary”. After they finished the whole place went dark and I knew there was probably going to be an encore! Then someone brought out a keyboard and everyone went crazy cause they knew what was going to happen! Soon Amy came out and started playing the intro to “my immortal”. She had changed for the 2nd time and was now wearing a “Staind” shirt! I guess she’s a fan of them too! . after she started the intro it didn’t sound right so she yelled out that something was put in backward and that someone needed to come fix it! Soon Ben came out and fixed it for her and she was like “Ben! You saved my life!” “Ben you still have all of me!” at that point everyone in the audience went “awww…” and she had a disgusted look on her face and was like “I was just kidding! Stop making those noises!” lmao. Then she started playing the keyboard and singing “My Immortal” and she did an amazing job! Later Ben, then Rocky, then John and Will all came out and joined her.
She then said “we cant end this show with a mushy love ballad! So here’s one more!” and they did “Whisper” I was sooo happy, cause that’s my fave song on the album and for a moment I thought they weren’t going to do it! After the song Ben came out and threw water on us! Lol… it hit my friend and I which was cool. Then Amy jumped offstage and ran down the walk way between the bar and the stage and I got to shake her hand and she ran by! :)
After everyone started leaving and the workers came onstage again I asked one of them for the set list and he gave it to me!! Yay!! I’m so happy I got it! Viviana and I both then bought shirts and went home… I got home around midnight!

Oh, and the setlist for Evanescence was (I promised I’d remember it, so I wrote down all the songs as they sang them).
Haunted
Going Under
Wanna Go For a Ride- Smashing Pumkin’s cover
Taking Over Me
Everybody’s Fool
One Last Breath
Farther Away
Even In Death
Bring Me To Life
Tourniquet
Imaginary

*encore*
My Immortal
Whisper

WOW!  That sounds like so much fun!  It's interesting you post the setlist, because they seem to have changed it up a bit...

Normally they start with Going Under -> Haunted, so it's interesting to hear they reversed those.  Also, the smashing pumpkins cover is called "Zero" and it's "My Last Breath" instead of "One Last Breath"

I'm so happy you remembered a lot of the commentary in between, like what Ben said and what Amy said... that is some of the best part.  It's cool you got to meet blimptor too!

It's great they're still playing Even In Death, it's like my fav song so i was afraid they might drop it off and replace it with something else ;)

hopefully they'll hit another So Cal date towards the end of the tour again for yah :)

Title: Evanescence
Post by: Holly on August 05, 2003, 12:04:10 am
ooo.. so it's called Zero? thats what i was wondering... cause on the setlist i got from the stage it says that Zero came after Even In Death, but when they sang tonight, the cover same after Going Under! and the girl next to me said it was called "wanna go for a ride" i guess she was mistaken. ooo... and i knew it's "My Last Breath", lol, oops, typo. i'm tired after being at the venue for 11 hours... lol. but yeah... it was an amazing time!!
Title: Evanescence
Post by: kaysha on August 05, 2003, 12:11:52 am
I guess they're having fun changing it up while on stage, because normally Zero would come after Even In Death.  They used to introduce it as "Now that we've just played a couple songs you don't know, we'll play one we *know* you know... Zero!"

btw, you should scan the set list for us ;)

so how do you get a set-list?
Title: Evanescence
Post by: Holly on August 05, 2003, 11:00:17 am
thankyou Joey!! i like how its all clear... cause sometimes when people host stuff for me its blurry

i got it after the show was over... i waited till a crew member came to the end of the stage and yelled at him asking for it! i was like "can i have the setlist?" and he said "what's that?" and i said "the paper taped to the stage there!" (it was the one near Amy, i dont know if they have more than one for the band). and so he ripped it off and gave it to me!!  :D

Thats interesting how they changed up the setlist like that...
also the fact its hand written and not typed out is curious.

I'm really twitching for the end of the month to get here so I can see the headline set too.

Also I need to find someone with a pic of Amy wearing the Staind shit. I'm uber curious which shirt she has.

evanescence's gets the loathe

loathe:
EVANESCENSE
I normally like female-fronted rock roups, but every time i hear evanescence's "fallen" i want to rip my ears off. the singer-rapper combo is just a poor copy of Linkin Park, with Chester Bennington's cool voice replaced by Amy Lee's. She's a pretty powerful singer, but her sweet Sarah McLachlan-style voice seems out of place alongside some tough rock-rapper. Am I the only one who's confused?

Actually, it's not to bad here in the states.  Most of them i've been to have been up and down the east coast, so within a day drive away.  The only ones i've actually flow to were the Salt Lake City show, and the Denver show.  And the Denver show i was already in Denver on business. =)  But you should gooooooooooooo :)

I just saw the going under vid on Kerrang! (A UK "rock" and "metal" TV station). I just saw the very end where the fan's and Ben's face turn all evil and such. Looks pretty good from what I saw.

I really want to see the whole thing. Partly to make certain that the label hasn't removed the solo and replaced it with a rap metal trade off for the radio ;)

I still think that they should do a video for haunted and use Ben's freaky concept for the video.

Then I started listening to solitude and it really reminded me of the times when I'd just heard about Ev :) heh, they've certainly come a long way since the time they were just Kev's highly recommended little known band.

Truth. Popularity has it's up and down sides for sure (mainly down), but they certainly deserve the success more than most chart music. It's better to be hearing BMTL every 5 minutes than the latest hit single from some guy who just finished 9th in pop-idol!

I think it's how Amy was feeling after she lost her sister at the age of 6 and how she didn't realize at first that her sister was dead and everyone was trying to help her.

Plus this comment on the original o-board from "Xian Pu" just furthered that thought.  The assumption was this was her dad.

Quote from: "Xian Pu"
"Hello" kills me so bad that I have NEVER heard the whole song. Someday...when no one is around...I'll sit alone and listen to all of it and probably break down into a ball of mush. But, I have to really be ready for it. It brings up a very sad, deep loss for me (that I know Amy has had, too) and it slices my heart. Oddly, it's my favorite. I'm too weird, I guess.

Hello Lyrics

rain clouds come to play again
has no one told you she's not breathing?
hello i'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
hello

if i smile and don't believe
soon i know i'll wake from this dream
don't try to fix me i'm not broken
hello i'm the lie living for you so you can hide
don't cry

suddenly i know i'm not sleeping
hello i'm still here
all that's left of yesterday

I just yesterday started listening to some of their slow songs. I've changed my opinion of them. I really like some of their slow songs like My Immortal and You and Exodus. Their piano songs are very Vanessa. I guess something about a chick playing a piano is something I can't resist since I like Vanessa, Norah, and their piano songs. LOL

I wouldn't call myself a fan but I can't say I don't like their music either. I'm a fan of selected songs. Thanks to Venti and Kev for suggesting certain songs.

I'm sure you understand the significance of "You" and how the band doesn't wish for people to download or listen to it, or more importantly spread it.  It isn't an Evanescence song but instead an Amy Lee song written only for family and friends that was leaked to the public when it shouldn't have been.  It does upset them that people have it and out of respect I choose not to listen to it or share it.  Just thought i'd let you know

actually no I didn't and only found out about it today by a fan. I was just told it was good and found it. I don't intend to spread it so that's not a problem. I had no clue that there was any story behind it or anything. Hell I just started listening to them yesterday and I'm already in trouble. LMFAO

you're not in trouble steve ;)  I just wanted to let you know in case you didn't know.  They have posted on message boards several times about it to the point where i can't even listen to it without feeling bad.  So, i deleted it and moved on =)

You should tell the "fan" that gave it to you about the history behind it as well.. maybe they don't know?

I just yesterday started listening to some of their slow songs. I've changed my opinion of them. I really like some of their slow songs like My Immortal and You and Exodus. Their piano songs are very Vanessa. I guess something about a chick playing a piano is something I can't resist since I like Vanessa, Norah, and their piano songs. LOL

I wouldn't call myself a fan but I can't say I don't like their music either. I'm a fan of selected songs. Thanks to Venti and Kev for suggesting certain songs.


that's cool Steve... i'm glad you like some of their songs

(abridged review)
John and I head to Bumbershoot about 9:30am. As we're walking towards the gate we see Renda. She and Phil had been there for 20 minutes and had a place staked out in line. so we hop in line and the hour and a half passes rather quickly. At 11am they opened the gates and we got our wristbands. After that we had some time to kill so we all went browsing around the various booths and attractions. After they grabbed a quick snack and people watching for an hour Renda and I headed to the End Session with COLD.
After that, the gate to Memorial Stadium was open and people were flowing by the hundreds, John & Phil had already gone through. So we go in, use a payphone and get a hold of John. I go to score seats in the grandstand to find John, Phil, Lisa, & Biggs all there too. Renda makes her way back and we hang out for a while waiting for the show to start. Phil & Renda being totally insane head down to the field to be closer and get killed by the moshpit. smooth move.
Cold comes out. Acoustically they were AMAZING but I've seen some of their live rock performances and usually they are not that great... they blew me away! EXCELLENT SET! You would never know they were hella tired and damn near dead. They hit it right on! I was totally impressed and am an even bigger fan now without a doubt after a perfect acoustic show and a perfect rock show.
Then Evanescence comes out. I really noticed a change in Amy's performance ability since March! She's all over the place, she puts on a GREAT show! The base setlist was the same as the rest of the tour. Open with "Haunted", "Going Under", yadda "Even in Death", "Zero" yadda "BMTL", "Tourniquet", "Imaginary". It was funny to see all the idiots leave before the encore.
The band comes back on stage and starts in with "Master Of Puppets", from that it leads into "Enter Sandman" for which Amy comes out and sings the first verse. Then they start into "One" and Amy is chasing John around the stage to get him to sing it but he refuses! BASTARD! lol Its still amazing instrumental. Finally Amy gives up and says, "Just play 'Heart Shaped Box'!" After that they play the last song of the night, "Whipser".
After the concert we tried to spot Josh, didnt see him anywhere, and the band wasnt out signing anything. So we called it a night and headed out. Sat in the parking lot traffic for about 15 minutes of hell but finally made my way home.

We <3 teh Ev.
Once upon a time in Amy's Evboard profile she listed her occupation as:
"lead singer of this crappy band"
So we thought it might be fun to grab the domain and bash on Effervescence... not to be confused with Evanescence.

Title: Ev on Thursday...
Post by: B on September 20, 2003, 03:14:30 pm
I went to see Ev on Thursday night. Here is my review.

SETLIST

Haunted
Going Under
Taking Over Me
Everybody's Fool
My Last Breath
Farther Away
Even In Death
Zero
Bring Me To Life
Tourniquet
Imaginary
*ENCORE*
My Immortal
Whisper

I got to the Rave at about 3:45 and just meandered around a bit. I didn't see any familiar faces or which bus was which (there were a total of 4 different busses around) so I just kind of chilled out and sat down for a while.

After continuing to meander a bit they began to let people in the bar area of the Rave around 4:45, but I decided that I didn't feel like going in the Bar yet because I wanted to wait around to see if I could catch anyone I knew or Ev, so I sat down out by the front of the Rave.

Around 6 I decided to go in and by that time they began letting people into the lower level of the Rave which was all of the Nintendo Fusion stuff. I tried a game and decided their controller was WAY too big and goofilly constructed for me to continue to use them. So I went to get in the line to go upstairs to the Rave Ballroom. They began letting us upstairs at 6:45 and after climbing three flights of stairs I saw that most of the spots up front were taken, so I decided to grab a front row place all the way to the right by the speaker towers. Then the wait began.

Even though the show was not scheduled to start until 8 they decided that Finger Eleven was going to go on at 7:30 exactly. That didn't bother me any. Their set was decent, and they were done by 8. Then the Nintendo Fusion guy comes out and yells about this and that and tells us to get hype and to go sign up to win a Gameboy Advance signed by Ev, and I look around and see by this time I am pretty much encased in people so there goes that idea.

Revis hit the stage at 8:25 and they were AS ADVERTISED. They kick ass live. They had the crowd rocking and movin' by that point. The only bad part about their set was the fact that they had a GIANTLY bright light shining right on the crowd the entire time which made it next to impossible to see THEM without shading your eyes lol. Revis finished up at 8:50. Nintendo Guy again, blah blah blah .........

COLD hit the stage at 9:10. I was impressed with the ability of the stage crew to change sets and do soundcheck in 20 minutes. COLD was good, I am not a big COLD fan but they didn't disappoint. The crowd really seemed to be feeling them and knew their songs. Had I known more of the songs I probably would have enjoyed it more too. COLD was done about 9:50. Then the real wait began. Out comes Fusion guy again. He gave away the last Gameboy Advance signed by Ev and threw out a bunch of T-Shirts.

Then we wait. They were pumping pretty good music the entire evening, so it wasn't that bad but still. Guitar check. Drum check. Drums again. Nothing for about 15 minutes. Guitar check. FINALLY Keyboard check. Wait for another 5 minutes, the lights go down, the intro music starts and the place goes nuts. Here comes Evanescence at 10:35.

They go right into "Haunted", I noticed that it seems like the tuning on the guitars has gotten more aggressive, it sounded really ANGRY, really cool. Much different from the Summerfest show and first Rave show.

Same thing with "Going Under". Amy was definitely on her game tonight vocally.

Boom, boom, boom, go through "Taking Over Me", "Everybody's Fool", and "My Last Breath". "Farther Away" was good, "Even In Death" was an awesome too.

Now we move into the headbanging portion of the show with "Zero", "Bring Me To Life" and "Tourniquet" back to back. The crowd is feelin' "Zero", singing along and all. It took them a minute to pick up on the opening guitar riffs to "Bring Me To Life" and I audibily yelled "Come on now you know THIS!", but everyone was into it once they got it. The thrashing around continued into "Tourniquet" and pretty much didn't end until the break between that and "Imaginary". Once they finshed "Imaginary" they cut the house lights and we were left to cheer and wait.

The crowd wasn't as loud as it could have been, but they tried to make up for it by stomping on the wooden floor and rockin' the place that way. After two minutes or so Amy comes back out and hits the keyboard with "My Immortal". Let me tell you the way the band pulled this one off tonight blew the Summerfest performance of it out of the water. The notes were sharp and beautiful and Amy killed it with the vocals. The guitar/drum help for the last part sounded like pure genius, simply awesome.

Lastly, everyone got the rest of their thrashing and aggression out by moving around to "Whisper", once they finished that up the guitar picks and drumsticks got thrown out to the crowd and the house lights came back on and it was over.

Now for my commentary, this is the best of the three Ev shows I have seen. They keep getting BETTER and BETTER. The sounds they evoke from the guitars and the solos and the drumming are just over the top awesome. Maybe it was just because I was so close to the speakers but the way the instruments sounded was pretty cool to me and seemed different than the other shows. Like I said above "My Immortal" was just WOW. There are no other words to describe that, unbelievable and awesome maybe.

I only stayed after for about a half hour to see if anyone would come out of the busses then I left. I was just happy seeing the show and that, but maybe some of the other people who went have stories, since I didn't get to meet up with any of the other EvBoarders that were there  :(. One positive I take from this though, becuase I was on the side, I didn't get caught in the mosh pit this time  :).

lol, Joey

Jamie, i can try to explain them. their sound gets compared to linkin park alot... cause they kinda have that kind of rock sound. it's rock, but with a little classical music in it. and their lead singer is a girl with an amazing, beautiful voice! you should check them out! i'm a big fan! they rock!
you may have heard their song "Bring Me To Life". but i dont know how well it did in Canada. but it exploded in the US and other parts of the world.

9/21/2003 - Moore - Seattle

Wakeup call at 8:30. Renda says she's in line and I need to get my ass down there. I get down there at 10:30 and there's exactly 4 people in line. Renda & Phil at the front and 2 other girls from Pullman.
And for hours we waited. To pass the time we played us some Simpsons Monoploy (I was Mr Plow) and just had a good time hanging out. While we were playing Revis came by, I didn't know what they looked like so I found out it was them ex post facto but they were taking pictures and talking to some people father down in line.
Later in the afternoon a taxi pulls up and I see Will & John get out. As they're walking up to the venue Renda told them "welcome back to Seattle" and I managed to catch John's attention and talk to him for a minute. I got him to sign my Mindrage liner notes and talked to him about Kill System a bit. That was the highlight of my night right there!
About an hour before doors I see Josh walk outside, he was pretty buzy(when isn't he?!) but I got to ask him what the plans for the night were... basically after the show they would get whisked away, no backstage anything. blah
We also met up with Colin from the board. He had been in line for a few hours before we saw him. lol But it all worked out so no harm.
When it came time for doors, it was handled VERY POORLY! The line for entrance crossed the longass Will Call & VIP lines. So even tho Renda, Phil & I were at the front of the line, we were not the first ones in. But once we did get in we all headed up to the balcony. And luckily we managed to grab the best center seats in the first public row in the balcony so I was quite happy! Couldn't ask for better seats!
At 7pm sharp the lights go down and Finger 11 takes the stage. The was exactly 3 things that made this an entertaining set. 1) During one of the songs Amy came out and sang background vocals! It added a lot to the song and it sounded amazing. 2) The guitarist for Finger 11 is a reminder to us all not to do drugs! I'm pretty sure he was on LSD or some other hallucinogen, I don't even think they had his guitar plugged in, they just let him swing it around and pretend he was playing. 3) The biggest Finger 11 fan on earth was at the show tonight, this twitchy teenage dude was thrashing and grooving to every song every note. He was quite a spectacle to watch!
Next Revis came out. I really like these guys! The times he talked to the crowd sounded pretty rehearsed, like he's been doing it every night for 2 months now.... but for the actual show, they did an excellent job! I've had the album for a while so I knew all the songs and that really helped a lot. I can see why Ben was such a fan of these guys.
And then it came time for Evanescence. Jennifer White a DJ for The End came out to introduce them, Ben came out with her and was rather friendly with her. Then he left and she introduced them. The lights went out and the music for "Haunted" started. The black drape was pulled away and the band could be seen playing in the forefront, and there was an elevated stage behind the band that Amy was standing on there at the start. The then came running down during the first line and completed the show down below. Then came "Going Under", "Taking Over Me", "Everybody's Fool" and then "My Last Breath" in which Will went back up onto the elevated stage area for a short time.
Next they played "Farther Away" which is quite a production. I love how at the end of the song Amy gets a chance to run off stage and the band is left killing it with the drum beats including Ben on the tribal drums! After that they go into another song not on the CD, "Even In Death" which leads straight into the cover of "Zero".
After Zero Amy gives a little speech about how everyone should know the words to the next song and it would help her if everyone sang along. The lights go down and there's some short guitar sounds, lights come up and the band rips into a Metallica medley Amy didn't know was coming (so she claimed). Instrumental "Master Of Puppets"(I think it was) then "Enter Sandman" Amy comes back on stage and sings the first verse and chorus of. At which time the band goes into "One" and Amy gets Ben to sing a couple lines from it while ripping away at the song. It really kicks ass. At the end of One Ben is just on the ground front center of the stage just shredding away.
A quick side note, that was the last I remember the soundsystem being good. After that, static and feedback started getting louder with each song.
Finally they get to the song Amy was talking about before the Metallica medley and they play "Bring Me To Life" which leads into "Tourniquet" which leads into their supposed last song "Imaginary".
The lights go out and the crew brings a keyboard on stage. The audience has lighters lifted high. Finally its time for the encore. Amy comes out and sits at the keyboard. She says that today is the first time she has ever performed this song live. We got a beautiful piano/vocal of "Breathe No More". After that song Ben comes out and grabs the mic, and says normally they would do a couple more songs but because of the soundsystem issues there would only be one more song, "My Immortal" also done piano/vocal only. No band.
After the song was over Ben had everyone come on stage that had been part of the tour. All the other bands, the crew and threatened anyone that didn't come on stage saying he was fuckin bigger than they were. I think he said "fuck" about a good 20 times in that little speech. haha It was a great end to the tour.
A few more notes about the show. The fog machine was set way too high. There was times it was hard to see the band, and it was really effecting Amy's voice. She did not sound 100% tonight! Almost like she had a higher pitched squeaking voice. Hard to explain, and it wasn't BAD, it just wasn't as clean as previous shows.
Also Cold's official web site lied, because it said they would be there but they skipped this show, which I can understand since they did Bumbershoot, but I would have liked to see them too. However Ben was sporting a COLD shirt during the show so there was still love for Cold there tonight.
So... great show. If it wasn't for the sound issues it would have been the perfect show.

Yep it's killer. I've been so hoping for this ever since I heard the live version with band.

Although these crossover antics are slightly annoying. I can't deny it has worked out perfectly. I can't see it not doing amazingly well! (and rightly so :D)

the only thing that would have made it even cooler is if she used the longer lyrics from the P/V.

But this is the version that kills all others. Fuck Mystery.

Yeah this version is hot. It will definitely go over well on Hot AC at the WORST. I can see it doing decently on pop stations and I think people will be feeling it. I like how they re-recorded the lyrics too.

Yes everyone needs to check this band out! They WILL hook you! From the first time I heard "Bring Me To Life" I was sold! Yet that was only the tip of the iceburg. Like Kev said, their music spans many genres from hard rock, numetal, to Vanessa-type piano ballads, so there is something for everyone to lach onto!
Every Vanessa fan should download "My Immortal"! Its a beautiful piano ballad I think everyone would love!

Isn't it. Wow.

I only found out about them yesterday, and dates were (that I found out today) 8th & 9th Oct... so there was no time, no money, no permission from my parents either... Way toooo many things. I started uni this week so there was no way I would have been able to go unless it was in my city. Sucks but barely any interesting concerts happen here - d'uh! :?

i don't have their cd either... *hides head in shame* (though that doesn't mean i wouldn't have wanted to go)

Seeing that the pop stations here have picked up on Here Without You (http://forums.nessaholics.com/viewtopic.php?p=55543#55543) by 3 Doors Down gives me hope they will do the same with the re-edited "My Immortal" because the two songs are similar in the downpace of the beat but the beauty of the music  :wink:

Hmm if KiisFM plays the same as most stations, which I highly think they would.

Your gonna have to push it on the music director not the night show DJ. So whoever is doing an airshift normally between 1-7 PM sometime in there, that's who you need to request it too, and then you'll much up your odds of hearing it.

ALSO:

What is this I hear about BM leaving in the middle of the tour for no reason? They just said it on the radio...

** Official NESSAholics.com stance **
Ben is not currently on tour with the band for the UK dates due to professional and personal committments. His position in the band beyond the end of the Fallen tour is not yet decided, however the band have no plans to stop playing or recording, and the third single will be released later this month.
** END **

As you know a lot of the VC fans are also huge Evanescence fans.  I've seen what can evolve around the speculation of Ben and what happened on the Ev Boards (http://www.evboard.com) so i want to avoid that here if at all possible.

no... but at kiis, trust me, jojo has alot of pull! i think he gets their highest ratings, and he gets songs he likes on kiis allll the time.
he's the one who got kiis to play "bring me to life" in the first place! i think he could do the same thing with "my immortal" too! so if he likes the song... he will push it. i think he will, jojo has good taste!

SO just quitting on Kiss forever. Or at least for now. They are like "Oh Linkin Park won by one vote" ... my ass. Then why did 3/4ths of the people's voices you played vote for MI? Ugh, I knew I should have NEVER EVER put faith in a pop station, someone slap me.  :evil:

By the way, Linkin Park is starting to piss me off, lol. Everytime an Ev song tries to do something good one of their songs is there to just kind of go (http://www.uwm.edu/~briancw2/nono.gif)

I've gotten tired of hearing the same five songs anyway, but the radio stations in this city are such crap I didn't have much of a choice--but here is my out and I'm damn sure taking it, lol.

Sorry, I know it would piss me off too... :cry:

I don't know though, with their battle thing they do hear half the time it doesn't matter who wins, because "So Far Away" lost, "Seniorita" "So Yesterday" "With You" and tons more lost, but still got played...But I could definatly see LP winning against that Ev song, because its more "upbeat" or some crap like that...Unless Ev fancies up MI then I can't see it doing much good...And why did they release it to rock stations too?

wow!!!!  :D
i went on  aol today and they were on the welcome menu and i watched the video and its sooooooooooo pretty!!
they made a GREAT choice in doing it in black and white... it really fits the tone of the song, and black and white is great cause you can play around with light more than you can with color! and the lighting in that video is incredible!
and Amy looks incredibly beautiful! she looks more glamerous than she usually does (although shes always beautiful). i love her dress and the ribbons around her feet and her hands!  her eye make up is pretty! and Ben looks awesome in a suit (lol, i like to see guys in suits every so often).
my fave shot of the video is when the camera is when she's laying on the roof and the camera looks over her and you can see the city in the background (the part right before the band breaks out). and also when she says "childish fears" at the beginning, just cause she looks especially pretty! i love the way her hair is in that shot!

AOL is stupid  :razz:. Most of the Ev Fans call it "My Immortal (Full Band)", but then again we could be wrong too, but it sounds better than "new version"  :). Thanks for being informative about these things though  :D

Awww… Sad news! I was watching TRL and they had a news brief on Evanescence!  :cry:

Amy Lee said that Ben Moody is “long gone” but the band is still defiantly going to be around. She said she hadn’t spoken with Ben since he left but she knows that she’s happy and the rest of the band is too. She was vague about the reason why he left but she said it was an unhealthy and unhappy situation.  :cry:

Aww… that sucks! I was hoping this would blow over and he would rejoin! Or even if he didn’t come back that they’d still at least be friends, because it’s a shame when a long term friendship breaks up!   :cry:

The VJ, John Norris (that’s his name, right), mentioned that in the last video, “My Immortal” Ben looks sad and is away from the rest of the band… but I don’t know if that has any connection with what happened.

A year ago today (Saturday Dec 7 02) a day that changed my life, I went to see the movie EMPIRE (http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0262396/) with my friend. Decent flick, no complaints.
I was driving home after, it was like 11pm, I was listening to 107.7 The End in Seattle when a song comes on the radio. I almost shrug it off for nu-metal rap/rock till I hear that its actually a duet, and more than that, it's a female singer doing one of the parts! After the song was over I didnt hear any credits, and the only line I could remember was "wake me up". When I got home I wrote that down and then searched around the next day but couldnt find any song along the lines of "wake me up". A couple days go by actually and I hear it on the radio again. That time I emailed the DJ and he told me the artist and songtitle was some band called Evanescence and the song was "Bring Me To Life" from the forthcoming Daredevil soundtrack.
Immediately I download the MP3 and search the net for more. I stumble upon Gabe's site and the v1 evboard. The following months with the help of teh Gabe & Brad, I took a crash course in all things Ev. A year of good times have followed.

the end :)

Im not sure if I have been a fan of Ev for a year but I sure have been there when Kevin first discovered them.
Fallen hadnt been released yet and Kevs had stumbled upon some rare Ev tracks so he started pimping them to me every second of the day and wouldnt stop until one day I finally gave in and burned a copy of some tracks such as My Immortal, Bring me to life etc.
I still have that disc and I have written on it "Evanescense" lol.
At first I didnt like it at all but didnt tell kevin that (oopsie sorry Kev) but I gave it a few chances and let my mum hear hehe.
We both gradually got used to it and then one day I realised that I loved Ev.
All that hard work of Kevin's paid off with the help of Danny who brought me Fallen <3
I was so excited when I got to meet them because as Kevin said in a letter he once wrote me- we both got to share a similar experience.
So heres to a few more Evan and Kevin years- CHEERS!!

HAHAHA
NO, Will Boyd (red hair) has been part of Ev all along.
He helped with several songs on the first EP, and when it came time for the band to tour, he became their full time bass player.

Terry (from Cold) on the far right is the temporary new member.

lol... not so much tho! There's Star which plays some good music but its all slow, adult contemporary music. There's power but all they play is hip hop/r&b. There's kroq but all they play is rock... kiis is our only top 40 station. I need the variety, I love being able to listen to Clay Aiken one min, Eminem the next, Vanessa Carlton the next, Evanescence the next, Beyonce the next, and Shania Twain the next... Kiis is the only one that does that, but the problem I have with it is it's basically the same 5 songs over and over, lol.

Ev Article on MTV.com (http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1484047/20040105/evanescence.jhtml)

According to that article they haven't decided on the opener for the North American tour leg yet, but Finger Eleven is opening the Australian leg, so I wouldn't be suprised if they did the NA tour too. (but Vulture already said that, so eh lol)

I really like Evanescence, althought some songs are a little toooo slow. I like fast songs, but a lot of the songs on the album are a bit slow.

I like how they did My Immortal over, in a way. the video had more to it, the song was way better than the one on the cd.

I don't know.  I could possibly find out if you still want to know.  It should be on that big sign out by the freeway next to the Reno Hilton. :wink:   Are all the tickets sold out yet for the Reno show?  If not I might buy some now or in a week or two.

I've always preffered standing room to seats.

I'll check on the big sign to see if it says who is working with them.  Or I'll call to see if not.  I pass by the Reno Hilton everyday commuting to and fro by way of highway 395.

Edit: I might even buy tickets there, if it is there.  I'm guessing yes.

take it for what it's worth *shrug*

EVANESCENCE singer Amy Lee has confirmed to Australia's Undercover News that COLD guitarist Terry Balsamo is now a permanent member of EVANESCENCE.

According to Lee, that also means COLD is history. "They could hire another guitar player and continue, but I'm pretty sure that their lead singer is in and out of rehab and having real problems," she told Undercover News. "He has been for a long time and I don't think they're going to be making another record. Terry was in a situation also where their band was very unhappy, so I think we came together on a common ground."

Balsamo was initially brought into EVANESCENCE as a temporary replacement for Ben Moody after Moody walked out of the band midway through their European tour late last year. After several shows with Balsamo, things "just clicked" between the guitarist and the rest of the group and he was asked to become a permanent member of EVANESCENCE.

"[It is] better than I ever expected, because I knew him," Lee said of working with Balsamo, "but I didn't know him so well that it was like we were best friends. I knew I could count on him and it's been such a relief. It's like one thing in a million other things that has happened so naturally. Terry's an insane guitar player with awesome stage presence. He has a good personality and he's down to earth and on top of all that stuff, he's a great writer and he's done a lot of great writing. I didn't really realize when we first brought him into the band, so all around, Terry is one of the best decisions we've made".

Asked if Terry's appointment has created sore feelings with the rest of the COLD members, Amy told Undercover News, "I haven't talked to them. We all went on tour together in the States, which is funny, that's how we met. Scooter, the lead singer, was really hurting, it was not good, but the rest of the guys in the band are really awesome. I love Jeremy and Kelly's really cool and I was friends with both of those guys. I didn't know the drummer very well, but I don't think there is any sore feelings, I think they were all pretty sick of the situation in their band."

Why did Ben Moody leave the band? Any opinions/theories on this? Maybe he thought he wasn't getting enough recognition with the 3 top-10 hits, couple of grammys and billboards, and the #1 album. o.O

The did a couple shows at coffee houses.
January 3, 1999 they put out their first EP at a concert.
No one outside of Little Rock had any idea who they were till after Origin came out, November 4, 2000. Even then they were still very unknown. Wasnt until they got signed to Windup and got BMTL onto Daredevil in the fall of 2002 that the general public discovered them.

I've been really loving the old stuff lately (origin and back). I don't listen to Fallen much at all anymore, but the older stuff is still going strong. Still has the same feeling as when I first downloaded all of it :) Maybe it's just because the new stuff is everywhere. I even went back to prefering the p/v my immortal over the band version. It's a shame that they imploded :(

I still think the Full Band version owns all! (not to be confused with the radio Guitars Down Band Version)
Only thing it lacks is David's backing vocals like the Origin version, which were mixed down in the Fallen version.

The extra lyrics in the Piano/Vocal version are quite nice tho.

Anybody seen the MI video? It reminds me of Rome for some reason. o.O

What are your top 3 favourite Evanescence songs? I like......
3. My Immortal
2. Tourniquet/Hello (I can't decide....)
1. Bring Me To Life (although I don't like listening to it as much anymore...their music makes me more depressed than I already am. o.O

I went to the Reno Hilton yesterday and they said it was on default, unless that is a group's name; but I doubt it.  Since I'm going to try to get to SF if they(Edit: the film crew for the VC DVD) are going to film there this coming week I'm probably going to buy tickets the week after for the concert if it is not sold out by then.

Rick Dees was talking about Evanescence a bit this morning, lol
He was talking about how someone at the radio station crashed their car into a bridge and had a stroke, and that person wanted them to play "Bring Me To Life"! It was very random, lol, but he said maybe its because one person may not have heard it yet. And then Leah Brandon said "They have a new one now!" Rick Dees said "Yes I know! Why can't we play that?!" Leah said she loved it...

Evanescence EP (out of print)
Sound Asleep EP (out of print)
Origin (out of print) = kickass album!

Best you can do is download and burn them.
90% of what you find on ebay are fakes that have been burned from MP3s and charge $70 for the fake...

I...hate them.

I don't know what it is, I just...hate them.  There is something about them that seems ungenuine, and that turns me off.

I think she has a good voice, but I hate it.  It really pisses me off.  I don't know what it is about them, but I just..hate them.

Plus they are severly overrated.  Their music also over played, and this coming from the girl who never watches MTV, Fuse, or listens to the radio, EVER.

So, thats my opinion on the matter.

First off AL was quite rude to Justin Timberlake, which wasn't so bad, but THEN when they won, she just ran up there, it was like screw the band, I am the singer, LOOK AT ME!

Fuck evanescence I really don't like them..

Quality acts were:
Black Eyed Peas
The White Strips
OutKast
Robert Randolph and The Family Band
Beyonce

ok don't blow this out of proportion...but it is more Amy's band now...and to point out, usually the front girl(or lead singer for that matter) of a band (esp. with a female lead...like No Doubt) get the most credit...is it right? maybe not.  Who cares how she thanked anyone for getting the award, maybe she was asked to do the speech?

no offense to your thoughts DM, I respect them.  Just my 2 cents.

Nooooo I didn't mean the speech, I would rather one of them yack as compared to all of them...I ment when they annouced it she was up there fast as hell and the band members were left in her dust..You know, most people wait and go up together..

Yeah! they were #7! Which is good because kiis is finally playing the song and people are liking it! I think it'll go up!
JoJo was like "This is THE biggest Ev fan who calls up!" Lol, it works for me! Cause I'm the biggest Vanessa and Evanescence fan he knows, so he thinks of me when he hears something about them. Like Evanescence was supposed to be on his show tonight, and he told me as soon as he heard. And if it really happened, I would have been their talking to them right now. But it fell through... but JoJo said it is highly likely that they'll come to his show again soon, now that it was that close! Atleast it's a step....

My mom and I were in the car and she wanted me to put in a CD.  So I grabbed Evanescence because I knew she'd like Amy's voice, but probably not the heavy guitar.  She likes some rock but I thought it would be too hard for her taste, but I didn't care because I hadn't listened to Fallen in a while.  Anyway, she LOVED it!  Who knew?

Cool! My mom is like obessed with Bring Me To Life. She's like, "Ooh, it's that one song!" I'll be like "Evanescence, Bring Me To Life." "Yeah!"

I have been playing "My Immortal" on the piano a lot lately and turning the volume up when it's on the radio or MTV. Hopefully she'll grow into it.

I saw Ev in Reno yesterday. I would have to say that I enjoyed the show I went to in Orlando much better. I am not sure if it was just me but her mic seemed a little low. She looked great. I was a mad cause I called the venue before we left the hotel to see if they allowed cameras and was told no but them bastards didn't even check or anything. Grr!!

Oh and Let I hear ya, I hate the camera rules, and then when they don't even check it's such BS! Although I walked right into a place where no camera's were allowed, and I held my old digital right in my hand as I bought my ticket, and then had them tear it, didn't even say a word!

You really don't think they will be around? Or just the name? I am taking it you don't like them.  

I guess you can't see everyone and some people get through with their cameras but I didn't want to chance it cause I dind't have anywhere to put my camera if they took it away. But damn it people get your stuff together so people don't miss out.

That is funny, pop radio seems to get it right...The fact that no one requests them, well that isn't the radio's falt..As a matter of fact, "Going Under" was only on the local rock countdown once at #9 or #8, I can look it up, and that is all they've done here, BMTL did nothing, and they have yet to EVER play MI.

It is, but Chester doesn't scream, he just shouts louder than his puny voice can handle and it sounds crap ;-) Everybody says he has an amazing range because he can go from boy band mode into shouty nu-metal mode (and both modes suck). For correct use of screaming you will need to check out a proper band like Judas Priest or Iced Earth ;-)

If it suited the style, I bet Amy could hit a decent scream.

hey, i have a question for you Evanescence fans...
well, their 2nd single My Immortal has been playing a lot, and i've noticed that whenever that song plays, you can hear this buzzing, or some sort of him in the background. i was wondering if maybe it's just the radio stations copy that's gone bad or is it meant to be in there? and no, it's not just my radio because i hear it in the car, on my radio, other people's radios... it never does that with any other song so i was just wondering.

 i really like My Immortal a lot better than Bring Me to Life ( i think that's the title)... so much better

So, is Everybody's Fool officially out as a single yet? Or are the only radio stations playing it still just ones that are getting a jump on things...?

Kiss is just beating "My Immortal" to death on the radio after I complained for like 4 months that they never play it LOL. I've been listened to kiss for about 6 hours today and have heard this song at LEAST 8 times, LOL.

... not that I am complaining, just an observation  :twisted:

... and now it is Kevin's favorite, "Hey Ma!"

Kiss has a habit of bringing back REALLY old songs, lol.

They are playing Trick Daddy's "I'm A Thug" again a lot too, lol. That song was the shiznat though, so eh.

i would always hear people say that their school was doing dances to Ev songs, and I was always like "why isnt my school's dance company cool like that?"
But they recently did "Bring me to Life" at a catholic convention and then just yesterday they did a dance to "My Immortal" for our forgiveness prayer service! I don't know what MI has to do with Forgiveness... but it was still awesome!!!! Everyone was singing along with Amy! lol

Tonight I went to the taping of Pepsi Smash and saw Seether and Amy Lee sing "Broken". I finally met Amy Lee! She's the only person I really wanted to meet who I hadnt yet! She was  really sweet and signed a picture that I had taken at their concert. She was totally laid back, wearing jeans, a black tank top and a black sweater. She seems so different now, in a good way! She's more relaxed and friendly. She sat down on the edge of the stage and was meeting and joking with us fans and stuff, which I never saw her really try to do in the other times I've see her. She was smiling a lot and just seems SOOO genuinely happy! Of course it probably had to do with the fact that she was onstage with her boyfriend that she loves. She gave him a lil kiss and hug at the end, aw! Such a cute couple! I met him too, he was nice!

i took this pic last summer and she signed it tonight:

Basically, it's just the end of eternal. I can't remember exactly (I'm sure Blackvulture will be able to tell you exactly when he gets back), but I think it was just a short piece of music that they wrote and had called demise. When origin was recorded they just stuck it onto the end of eternal.

Hope that helps.

What the fuck is wrong with being a goth? I think you're fucked in your little hollister mind...I can't believe people have views like this...YOU ARE THE KIND OF PEOPLE WHO BRING A BAD NAME TO AMERICANS!

Heh! Yes I did. For about a week before rumors started. Of course my reason wasn't truely to look different,

Whatever Daniel, in my opinion you talk BS whatever the weather. I recall COUNTLESS posts where you were going on and on about being different and not listening to the people that try to 'bring you down' and that you were somehow defying the norm. So if Amy Lee choses to do exactly the same as you and make money out of it then fair bloody play to her.

Just been to Ev show #5, and it was by far the best I've been to.
Saw Amy, but actually talked to John, Will & Terry. Got pics with John & Terry.
John & Will both knew me.
Terry I talked to longest, for like 10 minutes while he had a cigarette.

I want to know if "demise" a single song or just the end of "eternal". Cos i download it and its the same, but im not sure if thats realy demise

Basically, it's just the end of eternal. I can't remember exactly (I'm sure Blackvulture will be able to tell you exactly when he gets back), but I think it was just a short piece of music that they wrote and had called demise. When origin was recorded they just stuck it onto the end of eternal.

close enough. Demise isnt an official title, Brad(dude that put Origin out) named that last snipit that. Its all just part of Eternal.

I just got back from Ev's Sunrise show, and they were AMAZING! My friends and I got in the first row standing and Amy touched our hands (a bit childish and star-struck sounding, I know, but still awsome!!) She also sang happy birthday to someone who had a sign that said it was their birthday. "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear... stranger!" I got some good pictures from the show, too. I'll post them as soon as I can. Amy is really just gorgeous as well!

It was never meant to be public. A former aquatence of Ben copied the song and distributed it without permission. It's between Ben & Amy ONLY.

And you are not on an Ev forum, however you are on a forum run by people that know more than you might expect on the subject of Ev.

The live DVD sounds like it'll be pretty good!
I do wish it was filmed prior to Oct 2003 with Ben instead of Terry, but it'll still be hot.

(http://www.notachristianband.com/evdvdcover.jpg)

On Tuesday, November 23rd, Evanescence will release their highly anticipated two-disc DVD/CD set entitled anywhere but home. Directed by Hamish Hamilton (U2, Peter Gabriel), anywhere but home features an entire live set from The Zenith in Paris, filmed and recorded in astounding 5.1 Surround Sound. The DVD includes the band's four music videos ("Bring Me To Life", "Going Under", "My Immortal," and "Everybody's Fool,"), an hour-long behind the scenes program and hidden surprises. The CD will also include the previously unreleased studio recording of "Missing".

It's nothing against Terry. I've been a big fan of Cold for many years, long before I ever heard of Ev so I know and love Terry's guitar chops quite well.
But for Evanescence I'm just more of a purist, I think they were at their peak in 2000 when it was Amy, Ben & David.
Ben wasnt the greatest guitarist but there was a special chemestry there. (which later turned into a bitching fest shortly before Ben left.)

Post by: reese052 on November 09, 2004, 08:21:34 am
I'm really anxious what the 2nd album will sound like.  Since Evanescence was really Ben, Amy and David.  Now that Amy is the only one left from the original writing team, I don't think it will sound anything like it is now.  They may just release the "Origin" album and call it the 2nd album and no new material, but then we will never know what will happen.  The dynamics have been changed and it will no longer be the root of Evanescence.  

Saw them live twice and it was awesome!

"The announcement you've been waiting for has finally arrived! Evanescence's upcoming release, THE OPEN DOOR, will be in stores on Oct, 3. 2006!

Following the multi-platinum, worldwide success of FALLEN, THE OPEN DOOR is an ideal showcase for the band's inevitable personal and professional growth, with songs of introspection, longing, doubt, self-respect and ultimately, empowerment and anticipation.

Recorded in Los Angeles at The Record Plant with long-time friend and producer Dave Fortman, the album is defined by Amy Lee's beautiful melodies, profound lyrics, stunning vocals and poignant piano, which fuse with Terry Balsamo's urgent, yet intricate guitar playing, to form a remarkable, ethereal blend perf ectly rooted in the band's rock and classical sensibilities.

Amy Lee shared some thoughts about the upcoming release:

"The making of this record has been really intense, but I've come out feeling purified. I've grown so much since 'Fallen,' and Terry is the perfect writing partner -- I feel like I've been lifted up to a whole new level of inspiration and possibilities. After all the things we've seen over the past couple of years, beautiful and tragic, in the end I'm really grateful. It has made us create music I could not be more in love with."

01- Sweet Sacrifice[/i]: The listener is enchanted by the universe of Amy Lee from the very first notes, in such a way that it could be classed as the goddess neogothic style (Amy not the track). She gives us the first feelings, through this song that will keep us on it and entertain us for the next hour. Terry's guitar part flirts with sharps so that Amy's voice follows in the same tonality. With the postulate placed as early as the first beach (meaning this song placed first) gives the feeling that the believed Evanescence of 2006 has a heavier sound and a production a lot less cold than Fallen's.


02- Call Me When You're Sober[/i]: The first single of the album begins with a soulful piano intro (Amy's favorite instrument on which she composed most of the writing of the songs) supported by a great and somewhat produced singing. One would note the samples at the end of the refrain.

Amy: "It's DJ Lethal, a mate of Terry's, work. He did a great job with the samples and I am more than satisfied with it!"

The large sound of Terry's guitar and LeCompt's arrangements with the rhythmic guitar make it one of the heaviest songs on the album. The verses of the break "You never call me when you're sober/You only want it cos it's over" probably have something to do with the relationship Amy had with her ex-boyfriend Seether's Shaun Morgan.


03- Weight Of The World[/i]: The guitars begin as early as the intro making Amy's voice blended into murmurs sampled alternating with Balsamo's jerky riffs. The singing becomes more and more synthetic when the guitar moves with the Electro-acoustic accompaniment. The song is totally different from the previous repertoire of Evanescence.


04- Lithium[/i]: The enchanting duo of piano/voice of the first few minutes of the piece make you recall immediately My Immortal of the previous album. When the bass, the guitar and the drums re-enter the song (we get the image of My Immortal band version) the ambiance becomes even more solemn. The voice charged with emotion and gives the listener sadness similar to that of Origin (the first real Evanescence album).


05- Cloud Nine[/i]: We plunge instantly into a dark movie soundtrack with Amy's murmuring and vocalization, which lull us throughout the whole piece, which has a very dark atmosphere. DJ Lethal's samples yet again blend very well with the music.


06- Snow White Queen[/i]: The glaucous is still decisive as the drums progressively lean towards a more electronic sound throughout this track. The chorus (You belong to me/My snow-white queen) is very effective.


07- Lacrimosa[/i]: An orchestra of 22 strings, conducted by Dave Campbell (who had already worked with the band for the re-adaptation of My Immortal at the Billboard Awards ceremony of 2004) opens the song to better introduce a backing choir to Amy's voice.

Amy: "Dave Campbell is an enormous source of inspiration for me. He is very talented. The manner in which he arranges the orchestral parts is simply remarkable. It's the element of our music that makes me want to cry!"

Terry's solo guitar part adds to the environment of the piece before the choir does not close it continuing the descending notes. It was recorded in a chapel in Seattle, this is the second pearl of the CD.


08- Like You[/i]: Lethal is ever present and the guitars are insidious and the voice is mumbly and sad. Then Terry slowly fades away to make it more like a dream. It is a slow, short and very rich title.


09- Lose Control[/i]: Another one based on piano, electronic drums, heavy guitars and a trebled voice. It was all made in value by David Fortman.

Amy: "Dave understands our music perfectly, as if he's in my head. It is good to work with such a renowned person but if this person does not understand that which you seek and feel your band would end up playing like someone else. Dave always urged me to write and to bridge and to surpass myself."


10- The Only One[/i]: The guitar part is remarkable with Terry's nagging guitar. The vocalizations and piano of Amy remind you of those of Missing (an Anywhere But Home bonus track). When the seven-string guitar is played one is reminded of KoRn (of whom Evanescence did a cover (Thoughtless) in the Anywhere But Home DVD). The melody of this piece is unstoppable. Definitely the third pearl of this CD.


11- Your Star[/i]: The piano is the prime instrument here even putting up the maturity of the band's music. The choir and strings make their re-appearance here at the end of the track making an epic outro.


12- All That I'm Living For[/i]: The guitar opens here the taking place of the piano with a very heavy riff. One will notice a reference to the title of the album in the excellent refrain already engraved in our memory after only one listening. This is definitely the fourth Pearl.


13- Good Enough[/i]: With the image of a CD relatively dominated by piano, the CD concludes with one of the most intimate piano/voice duo. The strings come to support Amy's voice charged with emotion (Am I good enough for you to love me too?). Longer than five minutes, we still prefer, however, Hello from the last album.

RUN RUN RUN


CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE SOBER IS OUT.... IT'S REALLY FANTASTIC... I'M LISTENING IT ON AND ON.. AND I DON'T GET TIRED OF IT

Don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
You love me, come find me
Make up your mind

Should've let you fall
And lose it all
So maybe you can remember yourself
Can't keep believing
We're only deceiving ourselves
And i'm sick of the lies
And you're too late

Don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
You love me, come find me
Make up your mind

Souldn't take the blame
Sick with shame
Must be exhausting to lose your own game
Selfishly hated
No wonder you're jaded
You can't play the victim this time
And you're too late

So don't cry to me
If you loved me
You would be here with me
You love me, come find me
Make up your mind


You never call me when you're sober
You only want it cause it's over
It's over

How could I burn paradise
How could I
You were never mine

So don't cry to me
If you love me
You would be here with me
Don't love me
Just get your things
I've made up your mind

I'm so glad.. the song are heavier now... it seems great.. Now I've got one doubt.. because all the albums, it's easy to know the following singles. but THE OPEN DOOR really gets me thinking of it.. I guess it's going to be SWEET SACRIFICE...

DEF. CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE SOBER is the worst song from this album... but I really love this song.. ueueue...

I have good news to report:  The Town Car is fixed and I now have a copy of 'The Open Door', which I can say is an amazing album.  There are so many great tracks on it, and I don't think I could ever get tired of listening to Amy Lee.  She could literally sing the weekly Home Depot ad to me and I'd listen, but that's neither here nor there.  I love getting behind these songs and finding out where they come from and what they're about.  The way she describes it, it makes 'The Open Door' seem like the perfect resolution to 'Fallen'.  All I can say to anyone who damns it for being different is that Amy's apparently been through a lot of drama over the past several years, and this album represents a lot of undergoing and overcoming on her part.  It's not just some words and melodies that were made up by someone, but rather a lot of real life and emotion, both good and and bad.  I have nothing but praise for the fact that there are a couple of feel-good songs on this album because now I know what they signify.

Yeah, it is made of paper and easy to tear, but that's how they all were back in my day. 8)

I hope maybe it'll make them more collectible someday.

First reaction was alright, but I don't like how they're heading for a more nu metal direction now. I honestly think the reason why Ben left was because Amy stopped his guitar solos. Anyone who has a copy of their old material (Not for your Ears, EP, Sound Asleep, Origin etc...) will notice how many guitar solos there were and the absence of them from their commerical successes like Fallen.

Hey everyone,

I've been getting your messages all morning and figured I would give a little personal insight to this situation. Around 3:30 pm yesterday I recieved a call on my cell from Amy. This call wasn't from a friend who appreciated me but from an enemy who was prepared to hurt me and my family. Without any warning or negotiotiations for my future, I was fired for no good reason. We have not always seen eye to eye on everything, but who does? Our common goal was always the same. To make Evanescence the best rock band it could ever be. I have always given blood, sweat and tears to make that happen but apparently that is not enough. I have now become just another of the people fallen by the wayside on the revolving door of her life. It's funny how many of us there are now. I guess it's good for lyrical content, though. Maybe I will be among the blessed to have a song written about me, too. Maybe the song will be "Call Me When You're Broke". Whatever, as of next week my band Machina will be doing major label showcases in New York. There is a big buzz for it and we hope it will go well. I'm not going to sit here and be negative because that is not who I am. What I will say it that I know that many of you think she is some genuis or saviour of some kind. I just want you to know that my family and I will forever remember her as being about as deep as the shallow end of a child's wading pool and her lyrics about as deep as the 2 dimensional surface that they were written on. Singing beautifully for the duration of a record or two can move the spirit of the people listening, but the way you treat those around you who you are supposed to care about speaks volumes more than that and I would hope that some of you are listening. Well, that's it. I hope that sheds some light on the current situation for you. Thank you all for the good years and being the most incredible fans and friends. Maybe I will see you again. I am going to play with my little boy now, peace.

She may be; I don't know.  If so, she's certainly a beautiful one with a hypnotizing voice. 8)

And now it's Amyescence. Ever since the open door I thought she took over, completley. Once Ben left she took creative control, I can't find one significant piece in any song on the open door that suggests she gave the band important parts... other than a backing track.
