Frank leaves South America Due to Emergency?

frank.jpg

Two seperate people, from the Buenos Aires, Argentina area, have reported Frank as a no show.  Because the show wasn’t but a few hours ago, we have not gained any more info than I am currently reporting to you.

I do not translate Portuguese very well, but I can enough to tell you what is going on.

An entry into a Brazillian blog site had this to say: (Portuguese to English and cleaned up a bit)

“I just got back from the hotel My Chemical Romance is staying at here in NH city.  There were more than 50 fans outside it and it was maddness.  When they arrived they were forced to leave and wait for the mass of people to disburse before entering.  Eventually, they were forced to come back and enter through them anyway.  As the cab they were in passed us, all the members were in it accept Frank.  He still has not arrived and is said to not be coming.  We have been told that he will not be at the concert due to a personal emergency.  Nothing else has been said about the matter.”
    
-User from a Brazilian fan site, from Argentina

Another fan reports of Frank’s leaving….

“I didn’t hear the radio guy myself, but people I know did. The guy had said he talked to Brian. I didn’t believe him first, cause that radio wasn’t involved in the gig. But today we saw him backstage, so he does have connections it seems.  The DJ just said that ‘someone from his family is ill’.  Whatever happened, happened on the 19th. He played that night but seemed like sad, then left the following morning at 6 am.”
-Yekith, from Argentina

Yekith confirms that Frank was not at the concert.  She also goes on to say that a security guard with the band validated the DJ’s claims about the emergency. I will post more information when it comes available.

Set Lists

All the fans in the U.S. are hoping to get a little bit of “Bullets” on the upcoming tour.  The Black Parade died in Mexico.  That marked the return of My Chemical Romance and, apparently, a lovely new set list.  Fans have been clamoring about the internet, estatic that the set lists have included songs like “Headfirst for Halos”. 

The last three concerts have included the following songs:

This is How I Disappear
Dead
I’m Not Okay
Cemetary Drive
My Way Home Is Through You
Mama
House of Wolves
The Black Parade
I Don’t Love You
Sharpest Lives
Headfirst for Halos
Kill All Your Friends
Give ‘Em Hell Kid
Prison
Sleep
New Song (a song set to come out on the new CD)
Teenagers
Famous Last Words
Cancer
Desert Song
Helena

I am personally rooting for “Honey” to be played and possibly a few of the covers they have performed in the past!

MCR’s 2nd Sao Paulo, Brazil

February 19, 2008 marked the final night My Chemical Romance will play in Brazil.  They will be headed to Argentina and Buenos Aries next.  Below are two new videos and a funny picture of Mikey.  It seems a fan from the Sao Paulo 2-18 show, threw a t-shirt on stage.  Mikey decided to make that t-shirt his outfit for last night’s performance.  Mikey was showing a bit of “brotherly love”!
