Personally, I feel like if she was confident about releasing music this year or even next year she would have given more hints about music in for example the interviews on junos. Because she is no longer a big talked about artist and for her all kinds of promo is important. Maybe we will hear something next year, but this year most defenately no. Also, she's still recovering and I dont even think shes done with her treatment to be honest. Still taking the pills to work at the different parts of the body that are damaged etc. And after that, I just imagine she has to do a lot of rehabilitation etc to even be able to sing a few up tempo soings on stage. I remember in people she said she was 70% better or so and the type of work out she was able to do was yoga or taking short walks etc. To have a tour, which usually always come after a record, that will take a lot of practice from her.
If she's not planning a record without a tour that is, I mean I have no idea how her condition is - perhaps she is not seeing a worldwide tour or even a small tour in 5 year future. Who knows really.

Normally we would not post this in The Black Star Lounge as it's not directly linked to Avril Lavigne, but it surely is linked to Avril Bandaids. I am so sorry to tell you that Laura-Lisa, a fellow Bandaid member, slipped away april 24th. If you were around on the Bandaids forum around 2011, you could know who she is. Her nicknames on sites has always been tinkerbell or Laura-Lisa. This is such a horrible thing and it reminds us all that life is not predictable. The friends and family of Laura-Lisa has started a foundraiser for her funeral, and they appreciate donations. So if you feel touched and if you can, feel free to donate to this cause. www.gofundme.com/2mxzuzuc

And to be honest I dont think she should reveal any big news (as a music video) etc to an individual DM to a fan. I would understand if she did for Avril_bandaids because bandaids is bandaids , or avril-l.org or ALavigne. But not to an individual fan , much better through a tweet or official announcement!

I wish the fan Accounts would use their twitter-connection to Avril for more music/career/Avril-related things and not asking her to get a message for their birthday... Maybe now that she follows more Accounts the dms got too many..(which doesnt mean that I wouldnt understand that it must be awesome to get a message from Avril for the birthday) I really hope we will get some news soon... Well they used to before, but adly she doesn't reply to such messages. The only chance for fans to get any reply at all is usual to dm her personal things rather than her music stuff. I dont think she will release any news to anyone really, since she doesnt even feel like telling >bandaids<. I think shes not working as much as mayn fans think, i think shes mostly healing but shes probably very afraid also to tell her where she is in the process if shes very far away. And i try to keep contact with most of the followed accs and seems they all at least seem to respect her privacy a lot and doesnt message her weekly etc, so thankfully she shouldnt be spammed

+ Of course the fact that she follows more fans now, so she probably gets a few messages every now and then

Well, you can't see for a fact someone opend your dm but I have other things to go by, like if she has responded any other fan after my message etc And alot of times she have done what we request in the DM without giving a response, like giving out a follow to someone etc. She checks her DMs but nowadays she rare replies Do you think it's because she isnt on twitter that much anymore or are there other reasons? I think she is focussing on instagram right now, because she might have a contract with them or with some other companies (like Fender, certain fashion-brands etc.). But also because she doesnt have to interact anymore with her fans - she will just upload a picture and the fans have something to talk about. For sure.. I even think that she stopped dming back fans long time ago. Like she would reply sometimes, but very rarely. Around the time we got to know she was sick through that DM, she messaged with some fans more randomly. Like Irem (myflawlessavril) she dmed Avril it was her birthday and Avril replied a happy birthday and after that avril herself even asked her like "how old are you?" "where are you from" etc. And then for example She opened up about her illness to the avril-charts account. She also opened up about like news to that account, like the GYWYL music video etc. And many fans including bandaids reacted saying you know, its better if she makes public announcements rather than to a specific individual fan (Especially when the owner of that account has tweeted pretty nasty things about Avril, so many fans felt it was an unfair treatment from avril). I have honetly no idea if this affected her dms with fans or not, but i think it affected a little bit. Since Avril herself found out about thoose ugly tweets from that account, and saw fans tweeting about how she should make more announcements for everyone. I mean I am sure avril doesnt go around thinking about this daily, but i think it surely made her a bit "slow" on like coming out with news to individual fans. She however does reply every now and then. Usually to birthday messages or like, if a fan sent her a gift and want to know if she recieved it etc. Small things, but not much announcements or music-related anymore

I don't think her current management has a lot of track of this site. I don't even know if she have a team management right now as many fansites have tried contacting their emails with no response, and they always used to reply us. My guess is that since she's not promoting anything, why lay out cash on a management you know. Same with the foundation. When she gets back and is ready to drop anything I'm sure she'll have a management again and have a closer track of The fans but for now, Twitter is all she's having an eye on and it's so nice she saw the tweets from BA and decided to wish for us. I think she's aware of ten fact that sharifa etc is not active anymore because then she would surely see her name/face more often on Twitter etc, but she will always be thankful to the old crew for creating the site and all. I tried DMing Avril weeks ago asking for her to RT the tweet about our site coming back, she didn't RT it but she reads all the dms so she surely knows there has been some issues with the old site but she's not active or "enlightened" about it or so How does one know if the other person has read a DM? Just curious. Well, you can't see for a fact someone opend your dm but I have other things to go by, like if she has responded any other fan after my message etc And alot of times she have done what we request in the DM without giving a response, like giving out a follow to someone etc. She checks her DMs but nowadays she rare replies
