Itβs pretty ironic, Buddy. A couple of dogs like us fighting the last battle.

Yo.
It's been a while. A real long while since I've set foot here. I've decided to return just to check up on this site, especially since activity seemed to have died down a bit.
I was formally known as T1_Spork, but have since retired that name. I also went by Jesus of Suburbia and St. Jimmy here. I used to be real active until I had decided to leave the site due to conflicts with some members. If you remembered me, my mental state was in shambles and I was still struggling with my sexual identity and what not.
However, I'm a better, stronger person now. I've learned to cope. I've learned to fight. I've learned to survive. I've learned to persevere. I now have (online) friends who I can rely on who actually care about me and actually understand and sympathize with me. Do I still have bad days? Of course, but I've learned how to manage them better and better. Everyday brings me closer and closer towards the light and further from the clutches of darkness.
Ultimately, I've decided to come back to this site as it was the one that made me social. The site that made me come out of my shell and actually talk to others, even if it is only just online. I've met friends here. I've lost friends here. It was my first internet home, and it was beautiful.
whew, That was a speech and a half, wasn't it?
Anyways, I don't plan on being as active as I used to be, as my interest in Avril has dwindled and my life has become busier, but I'll try to hop in every now and then.

Hello, I'm new to AL fandom. I'm trying to learn as much as I can. This seemed like a good place to start. Does anyone have any links or places I should look to find out all about AL? Are the fans officially called Avril's Band Aids?

Maybe someone could correct me if I'm wrong, but maybe during her Let Go & Under My Skin era?

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to post a quick introduction about how I found my way here recently. I was a huge Avril fan for the "Let Go" and "Under My Skin" eras, I fell off during "The Best Damned Thing" era due to a combination of not really enjoying the change in sound/direction with that album (Did sort of enjoy "Girlfriend" though) and I think because Avril hadn't and still hasn't toured in Australia since 2005, when I saw her last. Anyway jump forward 10 years or so and I'm listening to "Fall to Pieces" by Velvet Revolver on YouTube and after the autoplay starts playing "Fall to Pieces" by Avril Lavigne and I got a huge flood of nostalgia when I remembered that voice/song.
This was around the release of "Head Above Water" and I spent a solid few hours listening to all the songs I'd never heard before, it was kind of like discovering a new artist for the first time. Since then, listening to Avril again has helped me get through a rough time in my life and I now consider "Head Above Water" to be one of my favorite songs. While "Under My Skin" will always be my favorite album for the sound alone, I also now love "Goodbye Lullaby" to. If I'm honest though I do tend to skip most of "The Best Damned Thing" and "Avril Lavigne" albums.
I am a little sad that I seem to of jumped onto the fandom a little late, as I feel I've missed a lot of the hype during the bigger eras. But I have really enjoyed reading everyone's posts about the recent tour and album.

I wasn't really a fan of her songs as well last time, but I loved her pre best damn thing songs without knowing she was the singer (I was still a kid back then )... So once I now she sang I'm with you, that was the kickstarter to start listening all of her songs. Honestly, I was kinda a fan of her songs when I was kid without knowing lmao. Once I became a fan, her "newer songs from the best damn thing era till HAW sounded better than before haha... Maybe I'm in love

I will do that! Quick question, sorry if it's been answered a million times, but has Avril ever had an "official" fan club? Like you could join and get stuff? Yes, there was. You could even get an email address, on her domain, such as your_name@avrillavigne.com. But, it was discontinued prior to the TBDT era. After that, you could be eligible for advance sale tickets just by signing up for email list.

Are her fans generally happy with their connection with her? I know that's a loaded question but I'm just curious. I've been a part of other fan communities but new to AL
