Dear Pezza, I'm not against the BAEBES as I still love the band. What still hurts me is being banned for my views on ILLUMINATION. Maybe I've reacted badly but why ask fans opinions if you ban them when you receive one you don't like. It was the band who changed not me. Why dump your fans without answering questions about their change of style? If they are so proud of ILLUMINATION why not answer the fans questions? Please excuse me as the band was such a huge part of my life. This could have been put to bed quite easily but remains a cancer eating away at me. My suffering would of been ended ages ago if just a few simple non abusive questions were answered. Instead they took away my voice and banned me. Is this fair?
I do realise that the PYTHIA forum is not the place to vent my frustrations but there is a person here who can end this all now but I suppose that I will be banned again!!
I do so like PYTHIA land aswell.
ps
The baebes forum is all but dead, fact. Because non of the band can be bothered with there own fans. fact.
Hmmm, I've been muddling through your recent posts, trying to keep my mouth shut, give you a chance on here etc, hoping that you might make a better shot of being a Pythia fan than a baebe fan. So far you haven't really talked much about Pythia. So the album's not out yet - everyone else manages to stay on topic, i.e Pythia/metal. This Baebe crusade thing is getting quite boring. I'm not going to get into the whole Illumination thing with you, aside from saying that I haven't met anyone who thinks it is a radical departure, or hates it as much as you. The recent gigs have been stunning. What I will say is that an allegation that the baebes can't be bothered with their own fans is entirely false. I've never known a band that bothers so much - signing merch for ages after a gig, always ready to speak to fans at gigs, not charging ridiculous amounts for merch/gig tickets, answering emails, having their picture taken with anyone who wants it. No other band I've ever known or followed has done all this. Problem is the Baebes are
too accessible which leads to people thinking they
should answer fans' questions,
should be explaining their every decision. If you don't like it fair enough, don't listen to the music, but don't expect that the band owe you anything. I think in the grand scheme of things Baebe (and Pythia) fans are exceptionally lucky in the contact they're afforded with the band.
Also the comment you made about Emily using tracks written for Illumination for the Celtic Legend album making the CL album poor quality was a low blow. She's done alot for you, you probably shouldn't insult Emily like that.
