During my travels yesterday, I came upon a girl scout named Cassie, who caught my eye because she was sporting an MCR hoodie. My eyes are trained, so it jumped out at me! We struck up a conversation, and she turned out to be a big fan. It’s nice to meet other fans up here in Alaska, because we’re all pretty far-removed from everything else that’s going on, for the most part. Cassie was in her last day of selling Girl Scout cookies that is helping fund her trips to Japan and South America. Of course we all know that Japan is close to the heart of My Chemical Romance, so that makes Cassie’s undertaking all the more special. Way to go, Cassie!
… But My Chemical Romance’s follow-up album Danger Days fell sharply off the priority list. “I don’t think anybody made a misstep,” the US group’s frontman Gerard Way says. “Not only did whatever happened positively or negatively sales-wise not affect the band, it didn’t affect the world’s perception of the band as artists.”
They’re at it again. This is just one of several photos that Frank Iero has posted to his Twitter. They start popping-up on Thursday, so maybe there will be regular updates starting on Thursdays and running through the weekend. Who knows? But keep sending us clues. We like it.
“Things is happenink!,” tweeted Frank Iero today as he posted this photo. One can only assume what is happening at their studio, but if you look back during the production of what became Danger Days, they dropped a TON of hints about their activities. So, the pattern is there. Either way, it’s exciting stuff. We’ll stay tuned for more updates from Los Angeles!
Now we know what they were talking about when postings on Twitter and the web were talking about photographs of My Chemical Romance wearing pajamas being shot. The above awesome photo of Gerard and Mikey is part of a touring gallery to raise awareness of young onset Parkinsons disease. It is also being reported that prints of the above photo will be made available for sale. Whether or not they’ll be sold online or exclusively at the galleries these photos will be displayed is unknown. Special thanks to Cassie The Venemous for the heads-up.
We get to finally hear a preview of Macy Gray’s cover of “Teenagers.” Jump forward to 7:15, and it will begin. She also explains what about My Chemical Romance’s original stood-out to her.
Footage of Gerard, Mikey, James, and Frank, along with manager, Lauren, has surfaced on YouTube. On Friday night, the guys were seen leaving Katsuya restaurant in Los Angeles by the click-clicks over at Pop Candies TV. Note: rapper RZA is also there and takes the forefront of the footage for a little bit. Paparazzi footage of any members of My Chemical Romance is virtually unheard of. Enjoy!
