As any dedicated fan knows, My Chemical Romance is beginning their new U.S. Tour with a stop at the Tempe Music Festival in Tempe, AZ.  Also headlining, is Fergie.  Questionable combo to say the least, if you ask me.  I suppose they are trying to appeal to other music genre fans, but lets be honest… Fergie?  Okay moving on, the Arizona Republic has gone so far as to compare the Tempe festival with Coachella.  Can one really compare the two?  If you ask the readers of the Arizona Republic, they are saying no, and I see their point. 

Coachella’s sheer volume of acts is one reason.  The other reason is Fergie!  If you go to the 2008 Coachella line up, you will see what genres and acts frequent Coachella and it isn’t Fergie.  So, lets just chock it all up to an insane reporter, who doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground, okay? 

And to make this count, below is the list of performers playing the Tempe Music Festival on 3/28/08.  More Artists will be announced later this month.

My Chemical Romance
Fergie
Cowboy Mouth
Chris Parker Project
Dorsey

I say again, more acts will be added later this month.  Check back often for the latest updates.

As some of you may know, I am a feind for a juicy MCR fan fiction.  I am also an avid reader of music blogs.  There is one I prefer over all others, www.idolator.com.  It is well written and does not involve endless articles about Britney Spears and her woes.  It never ceases to entertain my need for music news and knowledge.

The other night I clicked my little bookmarked button for the site, as I do every night.  What was the first article that I saw?  An article entitled “Idolator Goes Even Deeper Into The Emo Fan Fiction Underground”.  I got all amped up because, well, I love fan fiction.

I could go on and on about the article, but that would be useless because I want you all to read it.  And yes My Chemical Romance is mentioned.  I would also like to employ you to go back to other “fan fiction” article this site has written. Then we can all come back here and discuss your reactions!

Its not a big shock to anyone that My Chemical Romance are nominated for a number of NME awards, but some of these awards are a bit retarded.  They are nominated for such categories as:  Best International Band, Best Live Band, and Best Video (for Teenagers).  Then Gerard was nominated for Best Dressed and then the immediate category following that one, Worst Dressed.  WTF?  I mean could he ACTUALLY win both?  Why allow one person to be nominated for both?  What kind of acceptance speech would you give? 

He takes his award for Best Dressed; he is very humble about it (assuming he gets it) and then the Worst winner is announced…

“Winner of Worst Dressed is,” dramatic pause with drum roll, “Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance!”

“Thank you people for this lovely award.  This is very special and I will treasure it always?????” 
- possible acceptance speech by Gerard Way

 HAHA!

Anyway to make this post worth something… NME is still allowing votes to be cast.  If you would like to join NME.com and cast your vote for the guys and, well, Gerard; click the NME logo above.  You must sign up for a free membership in order to vote. 

NME awards do not air in the U.S., but winners will be announced via their webpage immediately following the show on February 28, 2008.
