More news.

Just when I thought this whole ordeal couldn't get any more ridiculous, it did. Apparently Tony and Maria are FIRED. That's right. Tony, the lead guitar player and singer of the band, got "let go." My two best sources at this point (hearsay and rumor) say it was because he couldn't pass a background check because he has assault charges in his past and lots of back child support. That's right, their excuse is that Tony couldn't pass a criminal background check. Riiiiiiiiight. Who's ever heard of rock musicians being asked to submit to a background check by their label? There are plenty of examples of rock musicians going away to PRISON for a couple years and still keeping deals, or at the very least getting new ones shortly after being released (Stone Temple Pilots, MC5, etc...).

In other news, apparently Erica has become aware of this blog, but still doesn't know who's doing it. Erica, if you had read the whole blog it would be painfully obvious, but since you obviously don't have time to read a couple pages in between running around trying to pull the wool over everyone's eyes, I'll make it easy for you. This is Jon Dell. I thought about following Joe's lead and going through all sorts of legal action, but I decided against it. Instead, I'm going to spread this story FAR and WIDE, and with any luck no one will ever be stupid enough to work with you ever again. If by some miracle you get this taken down (which you won't, because I'm perfectly within my rights), I will start a new page and post it all again. Please believe that I have ALL of this saved, and I'm definitely not the only one who has been writing about their horrible experiences with you.  


Toodles!
-Jon

Poor Tony and Maria! It makes me SO weepy.... If either one of them was that good, I'll bet they wouldn't have been let go. Just keep in mind that everything isn't always as it seems.

I'm not a band or crew member, but I know alot about what's really going on. This blog is awesome. It's really shitty that you and everone else has had to go through all of that. Promises are constantly being broken, no contract has been signed and nobody's gotten any money. The only reason anyone is still hanging on is the hope that she's not TOTALLY psycho and there might actually be a deal on the table. However, there have been so many lies and so much deception that it seems you'd be a fool to believe a word she says. Naive and trusting as they may seem, from what I can tell, the crew and band members are good people who are just trying to catch a break and live a dream. Unfortunately, the wrong person is in charge. The bitch is digging her own grave.

Erm. I'm nearly positive that this isn't going to get read, but... My name is Ericka Welch and this is like the 4th thing that shows up when you Google my name. Is there any way you could rename this?
