A Week In Los Angeles
Posted by Hayley
February 3, 2012
This week is the busiest week we’ve had in quite a long time. I’m writing this through half-open eyes*. My body hasn’t quite caught up with the work schedule yet… ever since we came home after the FBR15 show it’s been all Hunger Games, holiday meals, and Sega Genesis for me. Not a very active type of business to be running. Anyways, I think I much prefer this tiresome route. At least we’re getting somewhere now!

We’ve met a good 6 or 7 guys this week who are all well-qualified for the job of producing our 4th album. It’s a scary/exciting/and extremely inspiring process to meet and try to get to know someone who will carry out a vision with us and bring together all the music we create. As you know from the video we posted yesterday, one of the men we met with was Justin Meldal-Johnson. What an amazing guy. So talented too. We really should thank him for actually being the only guy who was really up for being filmed and okay with sort of having his space invaded by a little pink camera. Originally, our plan was to film literally any little thing, every meeting that happened on this trip. We wanted to make some kind of “video list” of all the folks we were meeting with. Unfortunately, we’ve got to respect the fact that not every guy wants his mug posted up on blog sites/fan sites/forums nor do they really want to disclose information about potential projects. The truth is, we were sort of going with the whole notion that “it’s easier to ask forgiveness than to ask permission” … but again, at this point it’s really clear to us that it was a little too ambitious of an assignment and we have to respect people’s wishes to not be on exhibit all over the internet. Basically, there are still going to be video clips and pics from the trip and we’re still going to keep you guys in the loop… we hope you’re still down!

The great news is that so far we’ve gotten a lot of incredible feedback on the batch of songs we’ve been showing to producers. It’s a new day for our band. If we didn’t know that before, this trip has most certainly been the confirmation we needed.

Thanks for sticking around to support us and being in this whole thing with us. We’ve only got two meetings left on this trip. You have all been with us for every thing we’ve done thus far and you’ll be there tomorrow as well. Not through a camera or by any physical means… but in our thoughts and hearts. You’re a big part of us wanting to make this whole experience just plain fun. Thank you guys again. Keep an eye out on the site cause we’ll still be posting plenty of things from our time here in LA.

Love,
Hayley

A new post was made on Paramore.net. The band is now in Los Angeles, CA and they are meeting up with potential producers for their fourth full-length album. Today they have a meeting with one producer, according to Hayley’s tweet. Read the post about going to LA below or on Paramore.net.

Heading To Los Angeles

Well… It’s been about 4 months since we’ve written to you guys. Awkward! But honestly, this “off-time” has set the record for the longest amount of time we’ve ever spent off since before the couple of weeks we spent making our 1st full length album back in 2005.

Don’t kid yourself though. It hasn’t been all hangs and no hard work!

What the three of us want you to know is we are headed to Los Angeles next week to meet with a whole mess of really incredible producers. And we are – basically – bringing you along with us to find the one that will help us create our 4th full length album.

So, we’re taking a video camera with us to producer meetings, hotel recording sessions, and all of our LA adventures. If you don’t know, now you know, next week is a big deal for us and we are psyched to make you a part of it.

See you in Los Angeles.

While the band has been in LA, they have been meeting their friends and having lunch together. Check out the photos of these events below:

A not great representation of our 1st day in LA.

American Idol hopeful Alejandro Cazares, a cellphone tech from Texas auditioned for American Idol, he had picked the song “Looking Up” by Paramore to perform for the judges. The reality of this whole thing is: he started rambling about a revolution, sung basically the wrong lyrics to the song, and pretty much resorted begging to the judges for a shot. However there is beauty at the end of the rainbow. As Randy Jackson said once Alejandro said he was going to perform “Looking Up”. He replied “Great band!”

Hayley stopped by at A Rocket To The Moon’s studio today. Check out the picture below!

A livejournal user, ghsoos is wanting fans to help him make a birthday video for Jeremy.

As they made with Taylor’s and Hayley’s birthday, @HechosParamore will make another video for Jeremy’s birthday and they need y’all to get involved. Here’s what you gotta do:

- Make a sign that says: “Happy Birthday Jeremy :l” or “Happy Bday Jeremy/Jerm :l” or any other greeting but try to include this smiley “:l” on your text. You can create your own text. Do not make signs with big texts because people don’t finish reading them in the video.

- Then take a picture of you holding the sign or just the sign and send it to our e-mail hechosparamore@hotmail.com with the subject: “Jeremy’s birthday”. Please don’t send the pics on twitter cause we will be putting only the ones we get on our e-mail on the video.

- Do not send the pic more than once; we don’t want repeated photos on the video. If you want to know if we got your pic just ask us in the same e-mail if we got it and we’ll gladly respond you.

- We won’t accept pics made on a computer. You can adjust the brightness and contrast of the photo though. We don’t want over edited photos.

- You can add your twitter username in the sign or you can add it using your computer.

- Do not send your pic to any other fan base. As we said before, we don’t pics to be repeated.

- The deadline to send your pic is February 6th. We won’t accept more pics after the deadline. The video will be posted on February 8th in youtube and we’ll share the link in our twitter. We’ll also post the video in our tumblr and facebook.

We’ll need your help to make Jeremy see the video. You can help us by sharing the link of the video on twitter and sending it to him and the rest of the band.

If you want… take a look at the other videos they’ve done as birthday’s presents for the guys, Thanks in advance for being part of this project!
