I would just like to say to everyone that says Amy Lee sucks live, I have seen Evanescence twice I thought both were amazing shows. Yes, Amy Lee messes up from time to time, but the thing is, if you guys attempted to get as high as she can get, you would most likely mess up every time. Every musician messes up.
Regardless of the mess-ups, I have seen bands that are way better live than Evanescence. I love her voice, and I think the range of it is absoultely beautiful, but to me, it seems lost when she attempts it in concert. *shrug* That's just my opinion.

As for the emo/goth thing. Amy doesn't need to scrap anything. She can dress however she wants and there is nothing stereotypical about how she dresses. Anyway, why does that matter if it doesn't effect the music.
True, I guess it doesn't really affect the music. I just don't like it when a band promotes a certain image. I really think music should be about music. There's nothing wrong with style, but I think playing dress up should go to artists that don't have more to offer. Evanescence has good music and Amy has a wonderful voice. That's all that should draw someone into listening to them. Instead, you have silly little teenagers who flock to buy their cds and shirts because they think they're being "cool" and "gothic". Those kids wouldn't give a second thought to the band if they dressed normally. I guess that's what really annoys me. And you're kidding yourself if you think there's nothing even
