My Chemical Freak: My Chemical Romance All The Time

Famous Last Words with Ray Toro

What was the last song you sang?

It would have to be “Hit Me with Your Best Shot” by Pat Benetar.  Me and my Fiance’ were playing Guitar Hero 3 last night and we sang that.

What was the last party you attended for fun?

That would be my 30th birthday party.  My fiance’ put it together for me, and we actually got engaged that day too.  So it was a really special day for me.  There were loads of people from back home that I don’t get to see a lot that were there too.

When was the last time you did your own washing?

Actually, a couple of weeks ago. We just got a new house and I got my first washing machine and dryer!  I like doing laundry and dishes and things like that.  It’s theraputic, and we don’t get to do things like that very often.  That’s an exciting night out for us – staying home and doing laundry.

What was the last book that you read?

I am not a big reader, but the last book that I read was called “Nam”.  It’s a collection of letters that were written by soldiers in Vietnam, to their families.  There are interviews too, it’s a great book.

When was the last time you threw up?

The night of the MTV EMAs.  I got so trashed.  Dave Grhol was tending the bar and they kept pour shots and they had these giant mugs that fit four beers and I downed two of those and then I had chicken curry.

When was the last time you laughed?

Pretty much every day.  Our friend James Dewees plays keyboards with us now and is on tour with us these days, and we have the best time on the bus.

When was the last time you had a proper holiday?

Last year around Christmas.  We went to Mexico, to Cancun, for about a week.

What was the last lie that you told?

I never lie.  There you go, that’s the last lie I’ve told.

When was the last time you called your parents?

Not too long ago, about two weeks ago.  I talk to them pretty regularly.

When was the last time you cried?

Probably about three weeks ago.  I was having a lot of seperation anxiety from home.

When was the last time you said “Do you know who I am?”

I have never said that seriously!  Only as a joke to my friends.
