Y recuerdan que cuando iniciamos este tema muchos le anunciaban un fracaso? pues....
Chapter Three: (Intentionally Omitted)
why write the whole debacle out? you’ve certainly seen much of it, or at least the parts of the story worth committing to text but the truth be told I assume it’ll be cathartic for me. I have many times felt like Jerry McGuire in his vulnerable moment of candid splendor where he just purges all from his soul into a life changing “memo” , one that immediately results in his being fired….. but I’m not as cool as Tom Cruise and I can’t write as well as he likely wrote in the fictional world so I’ll just stick to tumbrling for now.
there were three, maybe four times where I’d actually written what I considered to be a manifesto or expose’ of the harsh realities of being an artist on a major label, or at least being one with my given set of circumstances & results but I always abandoned it at the last minute not only cause I didn’t want to burn my house down while I was still in it but more importantly because every time I was about to post this crazy essay or whatever you call it I’d felt it was incomplete. I actually had the little word doc in a e-mail to some close friends at various well respected music oriented magazines/sites ready to post it but I just had a change of heart about it all.
a bunch of things have happened though since the last near bridge burning draft I’d almost posted at 4am one night back in may. one, I’m not angry. two, I’ve accepted full responsibility for much of what I was upset and frustrated about in the first place.
in due time(hopefully my lifetime) I’ll learn if that assessment is accurate or not but for now I find its much easier for me to digest things if I blame myself entirely.
So,
chapter two would end like this:
You have to understand that leaving Avril’s band was probably the hardest and scariest decision I ever made but I knew I had to go for it and was blessed to have her 100% support the whole way.
[a shitload of storyline text here]………and so it was less than 8 weeks after the Maxim show that I signed my deal with Warner Bros. I was in my parents basement back in Baltimore and at that point it was the best day of my life. 11/14/2004
chapter three would start like this:
Chapter Three
A few weeks later after celebrating with my friends and family, buying myself some well needed studio gear and writing songs I finally moved to Los Angeles, alone but ready to take over the world. The night I landed in LA it was like all of my dreams were coming true and this was just the beginning. Solitude would soon be given a new meaning and jesus christ its fucking smoggy there…
the story of it:
******(intentionally omitted)*****
and it would end like this:
And I’m not mad about it anymore. I don’t even understand why I was mad in the first place. doesn’t change a thing. I think we were so fucking close like a few times but what can you do? the past is the fucking past and I can say with certainty that every mistake I’ve made I learned far more valuable lessons than I ever could wish for so maybe its all good then. I can’t be upset about the results because it always comes down to me at the center. The one constant factor in every one of my stumbles or failures is me. The colleagues in this particular incarnation were just people doing their jobs( though at times it did feel that they were polarized with my ambitions) and they did just that. It would only be a few days until our 6 year anniversary when Warner Bros and I decided we would part ways and wish each other the best of luck in the future.
Chapter Four:
And then it got interesting………

http://www.evansawesomeblog.com/post/1520272010/chapter-three-intentionally-omittedDice que las cosas se pondrán interesantes después de su salida de la Warner.... muy fuerte todo esto y a juzgar por que en el principio nombró a Avril, una corazonada me dice que probablemente vuelva con ella, aunque puede ser que ya haya firmado con otra disquera...
El chico me gustaba, tenia un estilo peculiar y tiene talento, que lástima que las cosas no le resultaran como el quería, ojalá no se dé por vencido y siga haciendo canciones como The best Years of Our Lives
