the one thing that IS sorta cool/interesting/not a complete waste of time:

I went quietly and peacefully. Evanescence didn't miss a single show. There was absolutely no argument over rights and ownership. I owned 50% of the trademark and property value of the now very valuable brand of Evanescence. I gave it to Amy free and clear. I asked for no buyout, no negotiations. Just a clean break.


OUCH.

Wow...I read all of that and most if it was the same thing. However, gotta give the guy the credit he deserves. He's right.

Cant's say I care for either band, but if everything he wrote is true, I think its very admirable what he did.

It's a wall of text, but it's actually pretty interesting if you read it. He keeps stressing over and over that he just left everything he's even done in Evanescence with no arguments at all just so that it could continue. He seems like a really nice, reasonable guy. I'm not a fan of WATF but it's something he's doing for himself, so good for him.
I've been interested in the new Evanescence album for awhile, but it's taking so long to be released I'm losing interest. Amy claimed there would be Bjork influences and a lot of other crazy shit so who knows...it could be cool.
