Ok, so in 12th grade, maybe 11th, I could not sleep one night and decided to turn the tv on! Once the tv screen lit up, I was graced with this part of the music video! I was hooked! I couldn't stop watching him, His gorgeous hair, those eyes, his mouth! So sexy!

I had no idea what I had stumbled upon! It would forever change my life! It wasn't until a few months later that I figured out who this sexy man was, Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance. My new favorite band of the time! I immediately bought their two CD's that were out at the time and a t-shirt! When I went to college, I printed off many MANY pictures of him and taped them to my dorm room wall where I slept. Those CD's I bought, I uploaded them to my computer and made a music list and pressed play and put it on repeat and the music played constantly for months, if I wasn't there, it was on silent but still playing. I then built a promoting website using Myspace where I began learning how to make graphics, banners and layouts for Myspace! MCR even recognized my website and posted it on their actual MCR homepage! I received tickets to their concert because of that promoting website I had. I was unable to go because my dad said no due to them not being christian. Lame! So, I have yet to go see them in concert... and yes I know they are not currently making music right now but I am holding my breath for when they do come back into the music world.

 

 

I also know Gerard Way is doing his own thing in BritishPop, which is pretty cool, I have yet to hear any of his music because my heart will always see him as Gerard Way, lead singer of MCR! But one day, I will sit down and listen to his new music!

 

 

Anyways, I was so into MCR and Gerard Way, that I entered contests. And the contest that won me more concert tickets (that once again I could not go to) was the Gerard Way twin contest. I just so happen to find these said twin pictures!

Yes, I was in love with Gerard Way! lol.

 

 

Thanks for going back in time with me!





I didn't know what that was when I clicked your blog. I've been drinking wine and LOVE the name Gerard. (French-like, Soft g.) I did not know that was the name of the guy (god I almost called him 'kid' now) that sings for MCR. They had a couple songs to die for, when I was already "an adult" but a friend burned me a CD. I still have it in my car. The last two tracks skip, but I listen to the rest of it. What you did for MCR I did for Goo Goo Dolls (yea, I don't know where that came from, but Reznick spun my gears).

NOT BEING CHRISTIAN?? I'm so sorry. So. so. sorry.

While concerts are fun, most I've been to could be substituted by watching the curated "concert taping" on a big tv with the sound up and lights off. Sometimes there are effects that don't translate, but rarely. The only Best Part is the chance to meet them, but that also rarely happens without a crapton of cash. If they come, definitely go, because your heart won't let you feel like you haven't missed out otherwise. I saw Hoobastank a few years ago, in some dive bar, but it was magical for me. I almost died from cigarette smoke inhalation, but Doug took his shirt off and I will never, ever, ever, regret seeing that in person.

Wow. Wine means a LOT of typing.

TLDR: They're cool. Concerts are Meh (especially when you're older), but if they tour definitely go for the girly squee factor.

Thanks! Hahaha I hope they do a reunion tour some time! I think Gerard Way is set on his solo music now! Brit Pop. I still haven't brought myself to listen to any of his songs... I don't want his image to change in my mind if I don't like his new stuff!
