Whatever happens, or whatever drama unfolds, thank you for the incredible memories and getting us through hard times.
Hard times don't last but hard people do.
I hope these guys all get long and happy lives that they deserve and they never forget the way they have touched our souls.
u/the_alisonjane signed this from across the world and made it happen. I feel so lucky!
Also, check her band out if you’re looking for a female fronted Amity. They’re called All That’s Left. They have a single out called “Fade Away”
Regardless of what will become of the band, they will forever be an unbelievably important part of my life. Helped me through a lot of struggles and owe so much to them. Hope for the best for everything involved.
I'm fully team "Ahren is being an attention seeking victim and needs to stop driving the narrative that he was kicked out and Amity is just a bunch of meanies and he needs help", but I would like Amity to do literally anything about it.
my husband is a HUGE fan & is completely devastated of the recent news. i’m looking to see if anyone is willing to part away with prints & sell them to me? i want to surprise him & i feel like he’ll be amazed.
I feel like I’m grieving this band. We all love taa, it sucks seeing this happen. I hate the way it’s happening. I hate how ahren and the rest of the band are handling it. I feel so so fucking sad. I will always love taa, I will support what’s best for everyone always. But I’m just crushed. Attached is a picture from 2013 warped tour when I saw them for the first time. I’m so glad I have so many good memories of not only watching them play but meeting them as well. I just wanted to share my thoughts.. all this sadness has no where to go. I know here it will be understood. I’m sorry this is happening.
Saw someone post about the song some friends being a bittersweet song now and it got me thinking. What’s one song you would show the band (of their own records) to help them through this time of losing Ahren. Either to Ahren himself as to show support to get better or to show support to Joel for this hard time he’s going through.
Personally for Ahren I always come back to R.I.P Foghorn. In his own lyrics he sings “It’s never easy to admit, that you’ve faltered and fallen, and you can’t do this on your own” Or in the same song “I’m just trying to tell you that you aren’t here alone”
For Joel Never Alone is perfect. I know it’s their song to the fans to say that we are there for you, to “never give up”, and “we are never ever alone”. However the support we as fans have been and continue to show is “that no matter where our bodies roam” we are still there for him. To tell him we are “never alone, never apart” and I’m sure everyone can attest to this personally that we found this band at some low points in our lives that helped us through it. That “We found each other in the dark” I only hope we can find Joel in this dark and show our support as he did with us for so many years, for some of us a decade more.
It is also my hope for Joel he never comes home to a message from Ahren like the one at the end of Never Alone. Although I sincerely hope he never has to feel what is sung in the songs R.I.P Steggy or R.I.P Bon about Ahren.
If you’ve made it this far, I’m sure you are sick of hearing about all this drama as I am, and just wish that everyone involved is happy, safe, and can find some sort of peace with each-other. But I really do believe that these guys not only need but deserve our support more than ever right now.
What songs/lyrics would you show the band to show your support. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
:(
I know this is a long shot but I had a shirt with this logo on it 10+ years ago and lost it, can't find it anywhere if you have one and willing to sell or any other older shirts (before 2014) in xl let me know thanks!
Feel like the sub needs an “Ahren news” tag at this point. I recognize many are tired of the rhetoric, I’m just sharing what I see. Love you all and the band, have a great day <3
This is her own personal work. It’s heavy and brutal. Deserves a good listen.

was never able to get one and would love to buy one. Let me know if you have one you are willing to part with!
I thought I remembered in an old interview he had said who the inspiration was for his lyrics in that song and for some reason I thought it was another famous singer he admired but I may be completely misremembering
Well that’s different

Just curious, who sings the end choir to Give it All. It sounds like a mix between the singers and kids.
So what do yall think the setlist will be this tour.
