He's the keyboard player from Avril's band. Either they are recording keyboards for a song or practicing one. Chris Baseford, one of her producers is there also. Seriosuly, I really can't image that THEY ARE STILL WRITING, RECORDING, that would mean they have to mix and mastering. THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE for me. I really hope they are practicing!!!!!!

It's better not to put your hopes very high because 99% of the times that someone posts something related to Avril, it's nothing or nothing happens Only an official announcement that i don't see it coming anytime "soon" or "before we know it"

The album is simply not done yet. I also jump of excitement every time I see Avril's story icon popping up but ultimately she never hinted that the album is done.

She even deleted the facebook live chat, now I understand why. anyway, I am not dissapointed, I just feel sorry for her, because I do believe all the delay and stuff will affect her sales (its not like she is 22 and all of the gays and teens will fall in love with her just now again, I think it will be hard for her to get so many new fans), and later this year she will be have bigger competitors, so (IMO) she can say goodbye to have a top 5 single and a #1 album again.

I have a feeling Lucky Ones will be similar to the song Kylie Minouge dropped today. An acoustic guitar loop which leads into a disco club stomper.

Just release something, write something, give us info Avril what is happening. Seriously, I understand that they maybe not finished with the damnit album, but why they just cant give us info about the first single? Like, when we can expect it, how it will sound. Even if they did not do the photoshoot, they can add a text cover for it or something. They are sitting in the album like 1 year so they should now by now when we would get it. Not exact date, bout they can say AROUND for example summer....

Revealing every single bit of information as it happens is impractical, it totally destroys the element of surprise which is so crucial in todayβs music industry climate. Artists now reveal Single / Album / Music Video / Tour Dates all in the space of a week so they have maximum airtime in this disposable media landscape.

Is it any comfort if i say, the album will be released? At some point or another. It has gotten so much attention by now, that either Avril nor BMG can just scrap it. If it is the same songs she has been working on for the last 2-3 years, remain to be revealed, if ever. My excitement has gone low by now, i dont have to check in on social media every hour of the day anymore. Here i have to But that doesn't mean my interest for Av or AL6 has disappeared. It just accepted to be more patient. This is the 3rd album cycle i follow from writing/recording to end of a album era. And i remember how excited i was back then with the fake Crash & Burn rumors that was spread around. And how i torrented, for the first time, GL the day it leaked (has since bought it 3 times). The same with the snippets of GYWYL leaked while i was on vacation i Copenhagen, and used all of my mobile data to dowonload it. (Sorry grandma for not texing any pictures that week ) I guess i have just grown up, and lost my inner fan girl a bit. Like this time i respect her taking her time. Shes been through so much pain. And that should not define her or give her a free card. But it does explain her hiatus. 2013 AL 2014 tour 2014/15 sick 2016 recovering 2017 ofically going full speed again. So even though she has never fully taken her self completely away from the pen and piano, she has had just a year on her. And i can sign under on the excitement one gets when you just get a tad better from a condition. You have so much ambition and so great plans. But maybe, it was a bit to ambitious? And thats how i see Avrils christmas message. But she is getting towards the goal. Dont worry And the facebook live was taken down in the first days of december. But in this age, it is on several youtube/facebook pages. So if you want to see it its there still. But maybe things changed, and everytime she said something about a release or any of that sort she was just chatting along with us and looking at Jen. Like she did not promise anything. She just said they were planing and trying to wrap the recording process in November. She didnt say they would keep that deadline. I know the feeling of reading into every single word she says or post. I know how easy it is to blame the lable or the management. Or stalk her and her friends, but that won't make the album come any faster. It will be released when it is ready, no matter what we say

She's a liar, she always was one and always will be one. You can either take this as it is or you can leave it. I will always be aafan fan and it's certainly too late for me to stop being one but it still saddens me to see how she ruined her relevancy and legacy by a handful of bad decisions which could have been avoided.
The point of the deleted live chat some fans were making wasn't that they only wanted to watch it on Facebook but that she thought she was slick by deleting it and that fans would just forget about it. It was just another half assed attempt by her management to try to make things better.
I was just shocked when she revealed a few months ago that she still hasn't recorded the vocals for "Warrior", a song that was written almost two years ago. It seems that she lost all of her work ethics since this decade started. I don't know what's happening with her, but it seems that two failed marriages left bigger scars than what she wants to admit...

It means the same since 2013 - he became her music director back in 2013, he is helping to create setlist, organize musicians, work on new live versions of her songs, and things like that.related to her live performances. Edit: just don't take this as something they are doing right now. because they clearly are not. he just keeps this in his bio

I know discussing here things wont make the album come faster, but this is really hilarious. What is saddens me that she always says something, then they clear the traces like nothing happened, and then leave us here hanging. She did a facebook chat, she said something AND EVEN her manager was there, then obviously none of is happening right, and they just deleted it. Sorry to say that but seems like Jen is simply an idiot or she dont know her tasks. She should have said to Avril to make another one and at least say what is going on or make her to do a light update. Because we are where? We know nothing more than when she first announced her new album back in 2016. Nothing more. She said a lot of things but we cant be sure what if true or not anymore. She is just lost her creditebly for me. I feel like if she announces tour dates right here in Budapest, I would ask myself: "Should I really pay for it, because what if she wont come at the end". Of course I will be waiting because that is tue only thing we can do, but this situation cannot go forever with her. I understand Jen just had a baby, but if she cant give her 100% or even 70% why she hasnt got an assistant manager? Ahh I am so dissapointed, I wish we would just be happy because at least we have some kind of true info about at least the single.

I'm sorry, but I can't take it that you're calling her a liar and will always be a liar. Yes, she didn't keep her promises, but maybe there were some issues or whatever.

I understand people's frustration, I really do. However, I don't think she's a liar. A liar, in my eyes, would be someone who said "my new single will be released in two days", even though they know perfectly well that it won't happen.
I honestly don't think Avril knew from the beginning that she wasn't gonna release AL6 in 2017 after all. I'm sure she thought she could make it. I'm sure she also thought she could record "Warrior" much earlier. She was probably just so convinced that her plans were gonna work out that she truly believed in it and therefore didn't see any reason not to tell us "AL6 will be released in 2017", "AL6 will be wrapped in November" etc. The fact that she didn't write a simple "sorry, no wrapping in November, no AL6 in 2017" surely is frustrating and it does seem as though she just doesn't care. But I think she just wants to avoid making people even angrier. She's in a really shitty situation here. If she doesn't say anything, she gets negative comments. If she does say something, she also gets negative comments.
I think the biggest mistake was that she and her team started saying "soon" one year ago. Doing that was just wrong. Even if they really were naive enough to think that they could finish the album by e.g. March 2017, it's just ridiculous saying "soon" and "get ready" before the album is done. You should first write and record the album, then make promo and get the fans hyped, then release the album. Not first the hype, then the writing.
But the damage is done, there's nothing anyone can do now. The fans are angry and impatient, and right so imo. Still, calling Avril a liar is too much imo. She's certainly not innocent. But she surely didn't do any of this on purpose. Call me naive, but I just don't and don't want to believe that.

I think she often chose the wrong people to work with, maybe thatβs the reason nothing seems to work out.π€
