Former Evanescence guitarist Jen Majura says that she thought his recent dismissal from the band was initially a joke. During an interview with Coffee With Ola, she said, “First of all, I was like ‘is this a bad joke?,’ and I remember after I got the news I hung up and I have this hallway in between my studio and my living room and I just laid there on the floor staring at the ceiling wondering what that was and…Literally looking over to my suitcase that I have already started packing because I was two weeks from going out on the road until pretty much the end of the year.”
When asked about how she felt about leaving the band, she said, “I believe honestly, that’s like, what? Three weeks now and I am, since I got the news, and I’m still in this blurry, oblivious…momentum. I, I guess I”m still in shock. Kind of, because you know after being married six years all of a sudden you’re divorced.”
She continued, “I’m hurt and I’m still in this blurry confusion of ‘what just happened?.'” She reveals that she’s received some big offers from other bands since, but “would like to consider them, just not now, not yet.”
