The brick and mortar embellishment
conceals despair.
I buried it in the backyard,
along with that old rag of a dog,
that I loved and held to my heart.
Passed on and by too fast for
my eyes and hands to grab tight.
And I wonder now, if I had held
just a bit tighter, would I have
a handful of fur rather than dirt
and hurt?
p.s. been body snatching...Mayo is Keyser Söze.

HUGS BACK!
How are you today?
Love,
L.
And yes, Lolita, I think it's time.
After all, that's what the man we loved and respected said we should do.
Love,
L.
HEY OPL!! *HUG*
I am pretty good, how are you?! =]
L,
I think the best thing to happen that might get us the old Gerard back, is the break down of his marriage.
I believe that everybody witnessing the break down of his marriage in the public eye would be an embarrasing and humbling experience for him.
Maybe then, old gerard might reappear.
He really does need bringing down a peg or two.
L, can you tell J I got her email and just finished reading it now?
You girls freaking complete me. You guys had me laughing so hard at some of the things you wrote, mostly because it's all true and not something we just pulled out of our ass for the hell of it, y'know?
I love you both. I can see myself now, typing up a reply and laughing at the same time.
Expect something soon.
Doing ok, paperheart, having to leave, though. Got company coming over, so neither J. or I will be on the blog tonight.
Hope you guys have a great evening, and I'll talk to you later.
Love ya,
L.
Hi L, please tell J that was a wonderful post. What's choking my chicken is that the guy could take a dump center stage nowadays, and the crowd would cheer. It's disgusting.
I'm trying to find pics of some of my boots, so I can show them to you guys. I might even hold a vote to see which one should be shoved up his ass. ^_^
- Sis "Damn-I-Want-To-Go-Home" Midnite
Bye L!*HUG*
Love you!
Send some of my love to J too!
*HUG*
Miss T, I agree with what you wrote. Sad to say, but I truly believe it will work.
Maybe if she left him instead of him leaving her? That would be different. Something he hasn't experienced for years. Something he needs to experience more than ever currently. HIM being the one tossed out in the cold, alone and by himself. Her moving on from relationship to relationship without a care in the world. A taste of his own medicine.
A big thank you to everyone who replied to my little rant.
Miss T., whatever it takes, I just hope it's soon. I'm afraid he won't just hit rock bottom, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back from it.
CTV, I will tell her! I know what you mean. We will send you a reply to your reply soon!
Have a good night,
Love,
L.
Sister Midnite!
How is your hippo doing? ^_^
Could someone please catch me up on today's happenings?
It seems I may have missed some stuff..
So far I have caught Gerard telling the crowd he wants to hear them "fucking" themselves?
I enjoyed your rant CTV. I think me and you share the same views on the Gee Lyn thing.
L, if you are off have a good time.
Paperheart, Hi sweetie. Can I get one of those famous hugs?
And that's why our marriage will without a doubt last longer than theirs. Am I right or am I right?
*hugs wifey*
MISSS T!! *HUG*
How are you today?
I am very good. Cold and hungry and off to MCDonalds soon!
BUUT, regarding the whole Gerard ordeal, I just want to punch him and tell him to get his head out of his ass. Being around MSI isn't doing any good for him! I think he may need to hit rock bottom again to fix himself up.
*throws rice*
CTV and Miss T, I didn't know you had those feelings for each other! =]
By the way, Hey there CTV! *HUG*
Hey there, love. How are you?
Hi paperheart, that hug was great.
I agree, it's gonna take him hitting rock bottom before he can get back up.
CTV, you know we are forever babes.
I am good CTV =] How are you doing?
OMG! I don't know if this is a fluke or if someone is testing me but I CAN POST A FUCKING COMMENT and I'm still at work!!!
YAY!!
I just hope it stays like this!!
Ok, so Socko what's up with you and the horse? Kind of creepy. A misplaced sock and a purple horse. Not exactly a match if you ask me.
Just jokin', PPU!!!! You know I'll whip your little purple pony ass!
Mayo, please post something so I can continue to comment when I get home. Okay? Please? For the princess?
No?
Well, toodles everyone!!!
I'm off for now.
XOXO,
Princess
Ok, guys.
It's fucking 5 mother fucking o'clock and I am about to be up and out of this mother fucker!
Mayo,
Can't post in your house!
You know where to hit me up!
Still waiting on that doodle!
Bye to all....family, friends, mayo, ss, lurkers, anons, newbies, and my Beloved Unicorn!
Until.....
Hey Smoke&Venom and Sdock!
*HUG*
Unfortunately, I must go.
My friend just got dumped so we're having a little "fuck him" party!
All my love to you all!!
*HUG*

Hello All
Am just dropping by to see how you are and find that the hilarity of yesterday's Anons has been replaced with disappointment and disbelief.
The truth is we have never known Gerard and we cannot say for definite that what he is now saying is not what he has always believed in, although I hope not.
I see someone who is desperate for acceptance of the "cool" grown ups and someone that never wants to be bottled by the cool people again.
The really sad thing is he is getting older and the "cool" young people will continue to look on him with scorn.
It is probably very difficult to retain your true self when you have had people telling you you are amazing and sexy (especially if you had image issues growing up) and it has probably just gone to his head.
My concern is what will happen after the tour ends and he is no longer in the public eye and gradually people will stop telling him he is amazing and sexy...what will he do then?
When the tour end? He'll be left alone in a house with a complete stranger. He'll realize the mistake he has made. Months later when an interviewer congratulates him about the marriage, he'll reply with "Oh...Yeah. It didn't work out. Yeah. These things just happen..."
Does that sound familiar?
Yup CTV, same old same old.
See you later paperheart, have fun.
Hi EB37, how are you?
Hi, Miss T!
Ernie is still under your bed.
I haven't seen him in two days.
He needs his shot & his Listerine, can you please send him home for me?
CTV, I hope you like slightly-rabid badgers. One of my 'pets' has fallen in love with your wife. :)
Hi, everyone I've missed! (still at work)
I hate so say it, but if Gerard keeps on doing the things we've seen lately, he'll end up exactly how he always feared he would be -- ALONE. There's only so much any one person (Frankie) can do, right?
Maybe someone going to a gig should hold up a sign:
RAY - KICK GERARD IN THE ASS!!!
*heh heh heh*
- Sis M
Hi Sis m!!!!!!
I'll send Ernie back for his meds. He's been as good as gold.
How are you sweetie?
I'm good, Miss T.
I've been working 6 days a week for about 2 months with some long days so just arranged to have Friday off-can't wait but will have to do boring things like renew passport for Paris trip, cut hair etc, etc
Anyway, how is the fab Sheffield these days? Everytime I read your comments I hear the words said in a wonderful Yorkshire accent.
EB37,
Ay By Gum. It's grim ooop north.
Spending 23 hours a day down't pits.
I'm sorry you are having to work so hard. I hope you have the best time in Paris.
If them Frenchies try to tell you how great the Eifel tower is, remind them that it is only a giant pylon ha!
Miss T
So happy they let you have 1 hour in the clean fresh air and relaxation. Things have surely improved since my day...
If the French try to boast about the Eiffel Tower I shall just tell them that they ain't seen nothing if they have not seen Blackpool Tower!
yes EB37,
They let us out for an hour a day so we can eat our tapwater sandwiches.
I'm okay, Miss T. Cold and at work (it snowed on me today), but otherwise at cruising altitude. :) Glad to hear that Ernie's been behaving, he's pouting now because he has to go home.
EB37, if the French try to brag about the Eiffel Tower, show them a razor. A lot of people probably won't know what that is. ^_~
Miss T
I know you are interested in all things football. I work opposite Wembley Stadium so I shall think of you tomorrow as I try to make my way to the tube station.
I hope they qualify. Enjoy the match.
I am going to get ready for bed now-best to try to get into work early tomorrow so I can leave early.
Don't overdo it with the tapwater sandwiches-I believe they cause dreadful acne.
Night night.
Goodnight EB37.
I shall think of you trying to catch the tube.
I shall be watching the match,
COME ON ENG-ER-LAND!!!!!!!!
Sis m, show em a razor.
Mieow! I like it.
These women form a circle around you, Mayo. Do you hear them? The heart and the sword holding hands around you.... The shields, the vessels, the mothers, the nurses, the victims and the heroines are whispering in your ears from all sides.
What can you give them in return, Mayo? What are you willing to give them?
Women, I felt badly when all the angry anons came in and attacked you yesterday.
You are not bad women. You are not pathetic women. You are all strong and beautiful and you have a voice. I hope someone is hearing your beautiful, hopeful yet angry voices. You are right to be angry.
Is there anybody out there?
Thank you anon or your kind words to us. It is appreciated
I'm here.
*little voice*
I'm here.
Thanks anon.
hello
I just thought I'd call in to say we got here safe.
tough plane was supposed to be in at 8:30pm and got in at 11pm.
See Muse in about 9 hrs, hope every one is well.
What has gerard done now? (can someone give me an idea what time it's posted)
I'm on dial up so it's a bit slower now there's all the comments.
*wave*
Hello gs, miss t and ep how are you guys?
Are you still here anon?
You are hearing our voices.
So that means that anyone can.
And that gives us hope.
Oh Mayo why won't you post a new blog? Just a little something so we can know more about you. Who is the person behind the jar
Ep here is the video link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OTSQcjGXUg
He told the care to fuck themselves and he wanted to hear it. He also said that Prison was about sucking dick for cocaine
Ergo - 5.21am. Hello by the way.
Hi to Miss T and Martha.
And anon.
Anon @11:55 PM, that was just beautiful.
Hi MJ, how are you?
Hi GS, how are you?
Hi Ergo, how are you? Glad to hear that you landed safely.
Hi jen how are you?
Hi everyone, hi Mayo.
Anon, I am really speechless.
Mayo, MJ is right. I would love to know more about you. I think you have still been hiding behind these blogs.
Some of us are married, some have kids. Some are single. We have a good mix. So are you married, are you in love, are you dating?
We talk a lot about MCR and the band members. Do you have any thoughts about them?
Do you have any regrets? Failed dreams? Anything. I have a ton more questions, these where just the ones that came to mind.
aw...anony..
Not too bad thankyou Miss T. I've just popped in to say hi. I'm off to bed soon.
Miss t I'm doing okay.
Teeheehee! Good questions, anima.
I think my mum'd kill me if I got married. Or had a baby.
oh I can't watch the video (parents house!)but thanks EP and GS
but it sounds gross.
I wonder what he is thinking
but then at BDO in Aust in Jan he introduced prison as beng about "going to jail and being fucked in the ass"
I will see them soon so I'll be able to tell you how he is
Hi anima and lh how are you guys?
Goodnight gs may you have sweet dreams.
Hi Jen,
Hi anima,
How are you?
Not drunk yet Jen I hope.
P.S. Anon, you remind me of an old friend around here. I am not implying that you are that person, but I just want to say thank you.
Thankyou Martha :)
Hello to LH and Anima.
I'm heading off to bed.
Good night Mayo.
Good night all.
Good night * ? *.
Loli, your mom sounds like a great lady. :)
Goodnight GS.
I know in the last post you said you are who ever we want or need you to be but I want to know about you. You don't have to reveal who you are just let us know a little about you. In a less cryptic form. Do you like what the things we like?
GS, always so short and sweet with you.
Goodnight sweetie.
Hello darls'! I'm hoooome, I thought this moment would never come, sitting here after a nice warm shower and a yummy sandwich, waiting for House to come on and reading all of your fine words.
I watched that video of Gerard being a rude, pathetic, sad little man onstage there and I thought about the things I wanted to rant about. However, coming home, I found that you guys had already said it all, and much better than I could have.
You guys rock.
What's new?
PPU, you can't have Sdock. I need her here and will fight* you for her.
Others among you: I know I owe you guys an email, big time. ^_^
*vunch
Mayo, I do in fact have a few questions for you, if that's all right by you. I think I speak for a few of us here when I say we're wondering if you are just one person, or if anyone else has ever posted for you. I know I ripped everyone a new one for destroying like the best movie ever in the name of trying to find this out. I might be reading too much into it as well but I think that a straightforward approach might be the best one. So I'm asking. You said:
p.s. been body snatching...Mayo is Keyser Söze.
The Keyser Soze thing I just glanced at figuring you were being cheeky. But I couldn't help noticing you referring to yourself in the 3rd person. This 3rd person narrative combined with the "body snatching" comment made me wonder. I know I pointed this up earlier, but I'm still wondering.
Also, early on you said, As you have surmised, I am not always certain who I will be....
I presume in order to provide a premonitory tale. I do concur; but I am not in the league of which you describe...
Just be careful of what you project on me....
But do not fret, I will continue to come, play along, and put on my best fake face....
And mostly:
I will turn this over to the proper authorities, now it is a 50/50 split.
and
The other sits contemplating future events; gravitating toward all of you, but it is difficult because this overwhelms....
"The other?" So, is there another?
The other thing I've always wondered about was this:
I have 1800 worth of shit in my head and plenty of time to spill.
1800 worth of what? You know what we all worry about.
Well? Quid pro quo, Dr(s) Lecter?
Old friend where have you gone?
We miss hearing from you.
Is everything alright?
Just let us know that you are okay.
We are worried.
Mayo, even if you do not want to blog or do not have time....could you please just start a new page? One word will do. This page is too big. Pretty please.
Why is this still on British time? What's the matter Mayo? Not sure where you're supposed to be?
Hello kapu how are you?
Did you also notice that he never stated the identity of "husband?" I guess we have never referred to you as a husband. That is probably why. But maybe you aren't, so we shouldn't assume.
K, all good points. We refer to ourselves a lot here in the 3rd person. I wonder if that is why. But I always thought someone else started this blog and someone else is using it more.
I took the day off today. Fantastic!! It was a beautiful fall day. I was happy too about everyone voicing their opinions. I would like to add something, but I think it has all been said.
Hey anon the other family members thank you to. They just can't comment on here anymore its to big.
I'm good, MJ. You?
Anon: You can sign in to ask Mayo these things if you want. It's not like he can bite you or something. The worst he can do is not answer you.
Which he won't, not to that question.
PPU said: I am bothered by the fact that you are happy living in small town Georgia, Sdock.
And I, PPU, are disturbed by the colour of your tights.
RW,
ha ha ha ha !
How are you?
I'm okay Kapu I get the usual suspects tomorrow.Know of any other good movies?
Hello rw how are you?
MJ, oh my god, rent Shallow Grave with Ewan McGregor, too. Also one of the best movies ever made. You'll flip at the end, honest. ^_^
Hi, Anima!
Yeah, CTV. No better way to get self-gratification than a harem full of teenage girls moaning at your beck and call. Golly Gerard. Trying to live what you didn't get back then? I feel awful for him. It makes my skin crawl just thinking about how sick I'd feel if I'd said that kind of thingie onstage. 'Cause "I wanna hear you fuck yourselves!" is way better than "Show us your tits!", right? Hm.
Is it time that we start spitting in his face?
A-freakin'-men to that.
Thank you Kapu I will put it on my list.
Hello Miss T, MJ et al!
I'm in an awfully strange mood. Was thinking all day about GW & his brand new "cool". Seriously, someone needs to do an intervention before it goes past the point of no return. That is, if it hasn't already.
Do you know RW, I can't remember EXACTLY what it was Gerard said, but at my show at one point I actually did flip him the finger and told him fuck you.
After the second song, he was all lovely though.
Seems like that didn't last long. I guess we got him on a good night.
To anon angie if you are still here. Did you read RW's repost of what CTV said. Do run off angry go right up to GW call him a motherfucker and spit in his face if you are that angry. Use his own words against him.
Lets just hope that when msi are no longer cool to him he goes back to his old ways and doesn't dig deeper into the garbage bin for his next "cool" friends.
Hi L, please tell J that was a wonderful post. What's choking my chicken is that the guy could take a dump center stage nowadays, and the crowd would cheer. It's disgusting.
And there's a big part of the problem right there. With the fame he now has he's like an out of control child. And that will continue as long as people allow it, let alone encourage it. Someone needs to stand up to him, and soon.
I honestly am tired of worrying about him. It makes me wonder about the other people in his life. If they are just as tired.
MJ, I have a ton of movie recommendations. Just not sure which ones you have or haven't seen.
MJ and RW, you are both so right.
Hello all,
I'm back and trying to catch up. I actually did have 'family issues' while I was away. I missed you and I see I missed a lot.
I want to make another blog, looks like a lot went on. My blogs only concern MCR and what is going on with Gerard. Not Mayo or who he might be.
Kapunua filled me in on some stuff (hi Kapunua)!! but I still need to find that video where the interviewer "cornered" Gerard in Kapunua's words. I'd like to see that for myself and then maybe include it.
Any quotes you guys can find me that Gerard said about respecting women and respecting his audience would be helpful too.
I also plan on posting a rant on Buzznet. I think I want to stir that hive again.
So what MCR dramas have I missed?
And is it alright if I quote some of you?
Miss T, G said something at the show in London that struck me as odd. Not that what he said was particularly strange, or even out of place given the context (it was just before "Helena"). But the way he said it came across as very personal, and a little sad:
"What do you think happens to you when you die? Because I have no fucking idea."
He owns the stage when he's on it, but when it comes to the everydayness of just living he's still lost.
anima just start naming moives.
RW, I agree. But he isn't going to find himself by imitating others.
Hi VV, welcome back.
Feel free to quote me if you think I've said anything of value.
VertiaVenom, I don't know if it helps but I remember a clip of MCR on MuchMusic last November. The interviewer asked Gerard where his respect for women came from, and Gerard answered that it came from his grandmother. She must be rolling over in her grave over the way he's been acting lately.
I can have a look for that clip, if you're interested.
VV here is the the link you are looking for
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWB2TQJAovE
Hi and how are you by the way
RW, I agree. But he isn't going to find himself by imitating others.
Agreed. Totally.
I appreciate that. Mostly I need that interview from tasteit TV does anyone know if that is still up on Youtube?
Also some one told me that an anon posted here and compared what Gerard said in that to what he used to say about the band being "not just another rock and roll band", I don't even know where to look for that quote, but it's a great point. Where in this blog could I find that quote?
You guys are so great and helpful. :D
VV i posted the link for the interview you want at 116
Hi all, (sorry too lazy to name all as spaced out on a gorgeous summery spring day)
VV, another recent video was on Tasteit TV, where the reporter nailed his you-know-whats to the wall.
VV, I don't have the link to that interview but I do have it saved. I could try and attach it to an email.
I have an odd question. Do the tour buses that MCR use have a shower in them?
VV here is the the link you are looking for
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWB2TQJAovE
Watching the vid now. Wow, has he ever changed his tune from the early days.
Still watching the vid... Holy crap. Can you say "two-faced"??
Oops, you know what the one I mean already, sorry VV.
Sloooow loading issues here.
Hello everyone. I see there is still a lot of talk of Gerard and his lovely language. Once more someone get a bar of soap. Come on he's gotta realize how many young kids are in that audience.
Wow. He's very fidgety during this interview.
Still watching... You know, I would really love to hear how Frank, Ray, Bob and Mikey would answer these questions.
Hello Elena how are you and I think a bottle of bleach would be better. I don't think soap is strong enough. I mean just think about where his mouth may have been lately.... in the toilet.
He said something about his mouth being in dirty place... the toilet when I saw them back in March.
Hi PP, how are you?
Hi Elena, how are you?
delete what*
VV, go to Youtube.
Type in TasteitTV.
The one you want is called
'Gerard Way - F*ck you; Check this'
It is 13 minutes long, and there's an embed code only.
Hi MissT
Hi Martha - I saw them in March too and he's was in no way this "New" Gerard.
Hello PP how are you?
Elena he was still old Gee. He was saying fuck a lot and he said he had a dirty mouth because he puts it in dirty places.... the toilet. the woman from TasteitTV even asked him about it.
Thank you so much Martha Jones
Verita, you've been missed terribly. I'll try to help you out in any way I can.
Good thanks, MissT.
I've just had the most perfect lunch break, strolling on a sandy beach, gazing across the sparkling gulf at the most beautiful, symmetrical, volcanic island around.
And the Navy boys are in their summer whites.
Life is great.
Not even the foul mouthed, fan insulting, identity snatcher known as Gerard Way could mess it up today.
And yourself?
Interesting interview.
I've got news for you, Gerard. We don't need more rock shows. We don't need more rock stars. We need more people in the public eye - more people whom alienated, impressionable kids look up to - to show them that, regardless of race, age, sexuality or gender, their feelings & opinions are valid, that they matter and that they can make a difference. You know what I'm talking about. You used to live it. What happened?
S'up VV.
I can't find that anonymous comment but it was perfect, it had a quote that Gerard said early on about "not being just another rock band" and comparing it to him saying that they basically just want to be another rock band.
Does anyone remember what blog that interview was first posted on? Because then I could find that comment.
I think that's what you're looking for. It was anonymous, but it was very insightful.
"Hey, girls, you're beautiful. Don't look at those stupid magazines with sticklike models. Eat healthy and exercise. That's all. Don't let anyone tell you you're not good enough. You're good enough, you are too good. Love your family with all your heart and listen to it. You are gorgeous, whether you're a size 4 or 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person, as long as you respect others. I know it's been told hundreds of times before, but it's true. Hey, girls, you are beautiful."
- Gerard Way (back when he wasn't a chauvinist pig.)
I'm good PP.
Do you live in heaven by any chance.
Never mind, Verita, I've got it for ya:
Then, circa LOTMS "We love to play. But that's really not why we all started this. It wasn't because we loved to play. It's because we had a purpose..[]We've always been pretty adament or vocal about our message."
"We're the anti rock and roll."
Now, tasteittv "There is a lot this band has said and I think that's great and I think now when we play live, it's more about playing together and really enjoying that moment and really just being a rock band. And I think we've made a lot of statements and said a lot of things and I think that that's cool. We did that for years. And now it feels cool to get up there and not say anything and let the songs speak and just do that. 'Cause sometimes that stuff can detract from the show."
Guess the 'message' had a short shelf life. Maybe it's much easier to be just another rock band. I'm done. Goodbye, Mayo.
Ouch.
I really miss the old Gee. Yeah he said fuck here and there but nothing like lately. Wonder if he ever looks in the mirror and wonders where he lost himself?
Thank you Kapunua. Thank you the rest of you, too. I'm writing now.
I will go to Buzznet and stir them up with this too just to see what it's like over there.
Still a rat's nest though I suppose.
your welcome VV. Oh that TasteitTV interview where she asked him about the toilet remark I don't think there is video I only found it in audio form.
*PP slaps face with wet fish. Sees MJ has already posted link*
Good thanks MJ.
Just fleetingly popping in to see what was going on.
GW prom photos on the net. Wow. You sure get maximum public exposure of your past when you are a singer in a band.
*waves bye*
K,you ass.
I was looking for that quote,found it and come back to see you already posted it.
Haha!
It's such a great comment.
Entropy! How ya doing, love?
I really miss the old Gee. Yeah he said fuck here and there but nothing like lately. Wonder if he ever looks in the mirror and wonders where he lost himself?
I think the stage at an MCR show these days is the world's biggest two-way mirror - the audience sees Gerard, but Gerard only sees a warped reflection of himself.
Hey, CTV!
I'm doing great and yourself?
I hope Ray smacked you across the head afterwards. I really do.
;)
As do I CTV. As do I.
As I haven't paid my $0.02, I will now.
There's a line, an imaginary, invisible line. Gerard sometimes got right on that line and fucked with it, but always took a step back. This time, not some much. He crossed it with the "fuck yourselves" shit, then took it a step further by making the comments he did about "Prison."
I was embarassed to call myself a fan and I was embarassed for him.
Completely inappropriate in my opinion.
Since all the stuff that was said between songs, the inspirational "Go get help!" statements, is now being said in songs, I guess this is what we're now supposed to listen to.
You know what? Fuck that. He's becoming as bad as the very thing he stood against.
I think the stage at an MCR show these days is the world's biggest two-way mirror - the audience sees Gerard, but Gerard only sees a warped reflection of himself.
Isn't that the sad truth. How are you RW?
Just fine, love. Thanks for asking.
Yes to everything you just said, Mustard.
Hello cTv and mib how are you? See you later PP and thank you.
Hi Mustard, Entropy and CTV.
How are you?
There's a line, an imaginary, invisible line. Gerard sometimes got right on that line and fucked with it, but always took a step back. This time, not some much. He crossed it with the "fuck yourselves" shit, then took it a step further by making the comments he did about "Prison."
I was embarassed to call myself a fan and I was embarassed for him.
I took a friend with me to see the London MCR show last week, a friend who hadn't heard their music before & really didn't know anything about them. This was her first exposure to the band. It was also her first exposure to MSI. I had warned her before-hand about their stage antics and Jimmy's trash-talking. But I could tell by the way that she looked sideways at me during Gerard's between-song banter that she really couldn't see a difference between them. Can't say that I blame her. I was embarassed on Gerard's behalf.
Martha - Where did you see them in March?
Hey, Mustard.
Everything you said was right in my opinon.
Hey Elena,Martha and RW.
RW,I haven't talked to you since you got back,welcome back!
And welcoming back to VV is also in order!
Hello MJ. I'm fine, thank you. I left you a comment on your blog. Check it out.
Hello Elena :) I'm not bad, better now than I was earlier in the day, though I still want to kick Gerard's ass.
How are you?
Hello Entropy! *waves*
Miss T, *hug*
You've already asked me earlier today, but who the hell cares. I'm fine :)
Hey MissT!
Hey Entropy Hello Mustard
RW I'm ok but like you I wanna unseal a tin of whoop ass on Mr Way.
From where I sit, Gerard is confused.
But again, who the hell am I to say what he is or isn't?
But, I'm not stupid either.
First off, there's a monsterous difference between the Gerard we all so during the Revenge era and The Black Parade era.
Revenge Gerard had problems and he spoke openly about them, held nothing back. He knew he could fight them, he just had to believe in himself. He splayed himself open and told the world that.
TBP Gerard is completely opposite, especially TBP Gerard after Projekt Rev. This Gerard is invincible, egomaniacal, self-centered (ala the man-handling of Frank), and spotlight driven. Me, me, me, me, me.
Secondly, the band's dynamic has changed. Youtube has the proof, and I don't need to lay it out there. A live performance from the Bullets era vs. a live performance from TBP era? No comparison. The musical drive on stage between the ALL was visible. The interaction was visible. You can just see it.
Now, there's none of that. There's Ray over on the right playing his heart out. There's Frank giving every last fiber of his being up to performance. Mikey, thank God, has become more vibrant on stage, really claiming his own, and Bob's just Bob. Hammering it out in the back. Then there's the Commander In Chief, staking every claim.
There seperated by some invisible shield. And I want that fucking shield to disappear. There's no My Chemical Romance on stage anymore. It's every man for himself. That's not the way it's supposed to be.
***These are just my opinions. You can disagree or agree as you choose.
Just needed to get that out.
Hi to everyone who came in while I was typing!
I agree so much with that, Mustard!
Hello Miss T, CTV, Entropy, Elena, and RW!
RW:
That's a real shame. I'm sorry.
Yes Mustard.
Bob is just Bob. 'Nuff said, am I right?
MCR, go see "About a Son."
Remember where you came from and all that came so quickly. How did you think you would handle it back then? Go back to that place and all the answers will come to you. Let your old selves remind you of your purpose.
Be yourself.
RW I'm ok but like you I wanna unseal a tin of whoop ass on Mr Way.
Even though I'm unhappy with the way he's been behaving lately, I usually still feel a lot of empathy for him. After the antics in Belfast & that TasteIt TV interview, however, I just want to slap him. He's doing everything he can to kill the beautiful respectful, fearful yet hopeful young man he used to be, isn't he?
'Nuff said.
Case closed.
The Omega.
Fin.
End.
Done.
And all the others.
Mustard, perfect post.
hello everybody. how are you all tonight
i see vv is back. welcome back vv we missed you
ok so what has happened?
There seperated by some invisible shield. And I want that fucking shield to disappear. There's no My Chemical Romance on stage anymore. It's every man for himself. That's not the way it's supposed to be.
You know, you've just hit the nail on the head, right there.
Mustard what you said is 100% true. I loved the concert I saw of Black Parade and hell even Eliza was there. Then came PR. The concert I saw was strange to say the least. The whole "I think this is real" when he was drinking the cider. Pointing out he was wearing his favorite Tee shirt (yeah unicorn) Not having any interaction with Frank. IT was so sad somehow. Of course he probably just wanted it to be over so he could go get married. Anyone else find it strange that when Mikey got married there was an announcement on the official site but not one word about Gerard's marriage there?
RW I'm also saddened by the way he's been acting. Just makes you want to shake him and scream - "Don't lose all you've accomplished. Don't lose yourself"
Not having any interaction with Frank. IT was so sad somehow.
I read this as not having any "intercourse" with Frank when I first glanced at it. And yes, that is sad.
RW needs a cold shower...
Hi Florida Fimble, how are you?
I thought that it was weird Elena. I don't see the difference myself. Mikey gets married. Gerard gets married.
If I were put in his position, the only things I could think of to not post it for the world to see are:
1. The mayhem it would cause the younger fans who want to marry him and have his children. Lame ass excuse though.
2. Shame. Though I don't know why someone would be shameful of their own marriage. But, this could be because the band and Gerard probably got wind of the whole internet mess with Eliza.
3. We weren't part of the family in his case. When it was Mikey we were "like family." Maybe things with Gerard are supposed to be for "under the dining room table only" conversations.
I don't know.
Anyone else find it strange that when Mikey got married there was an announcement on the official site but not one word about Gerard's marriage there?
That's because Mikey's marriage is real. I mean, he knew her for more than five minutes before tying the knot, and to my knowledge they have never been seen in public together wearing unicorn t-shirts.
I find it strange that only Ray was present for the "ceremony", and he looked decidedly awkward standing there.
^Strange, and very, very sad.
Okay here is another question that I've been wondering about
James married Mikey and Alicia.
Why didn't he marry Gerard and
Lyn-Z?
I mean he was there, so why not?
hi sheff miss t, hehehe
elena. who is james?
I wondered the same exact thing, elena.
That could be because James had alread left the venue, though. When I saw them, he was the first one to leave. About a half an hour before everyone else. I'd assumed it was because he is a homeboy; we are in NY and he was probably driving home. But when the "marriage" happened I wondered if it's just his habit to bail early.
Could be wrong, of course.
Yet another good question Elena.
Everything about this marriage is different.
I can't speak for Gerard, but I know I'd rather have one of my FRIENDS marry me, rather than some employee at the venue I performed at whom I DO NOT KNOW, yet so conveniently happened to be an ordained minister.
Backwards, but if that's what he wanted, I suppose there's nothing I can say about it.
I hate talking about this stuff because it's just not my place to say. But, you can't help if you have an opinion, right?
20 bucks says the next blog will be another poem.
Sorry you guys I got called away from my computer. Hello entropy how are you?
Elena I saw them in Oakland CA.
CTv and Miss t thank you for the comments.
HOLD UP! What the fuck did I miss today? What did Gee do now?
You're welcome, love.
Hello fs how are you?
I agree CTV, another fucking poem argh!
Wasn't there some suggestions that the marriage wasn't "offical".
Paperwork and dates not quite adding up.
Wasn't the marriage lisence dated after the day of the wedding.
Did they marry again?
He might have left early but still I mean they had to have this planned a bit in advance. They had wedding rings. Of course maybe Gerard was just carrying them around looking for someone to marry. It sure seemed that once he turned 30 and his baby brother got married then he decided that's what he had to do.
who is james?
Hey, just thought of this: by inciting teenage fan girls to "fuck themselves" in front of him, complete with orgasm noises, Gerard may in fact have found a way to cheat on his woman while still technically remaining faithful. Good one, GW! Frat boys everywhere salute you.
hey martha. i am great today. how are you
It will stand as a reminder that I can not take you for granted, that I am accountable for my actions, and that I need you.
Just a reminder.
Fimble:
James Dewees from Reggie And The Full Effect.
He's playing keyboards for MCR right now. He also played for them during Projekt Rev.
Sorry it took me so long.
I have heard so many things about that marriage. People were saying his mother was a witness but that the license was fake. Than someone said there were three license and that he used his parents old address. the whole thing is just one big mess.
I agree with RW concerning the announcements on the website.
But I think mainly they had to say it. If Mikey never had that break, I bet they nver would have said anything at all.
Fs I'm doing well.
I think the reason they said something is because people knew about Mikey's wedding some fans knew when and where. Gerard just woke up one morning and decided to get married.
It was like I think I'll have bacon for breakfast today and after the show I want to get married.
I think 2700 comments beats our old record, does it not?
We srsly need a new blog don't we? Half our friends can't even post anymore.
Hi magic pie, how are you?
Well, if the marriage isn't "official" maybe that's why we never got an official announcement.
It was like I think I'll have bacon for breakfast today and after the show I want to get married.
And then I want to throw vomit at people. Won't that be fun??
Crap. I have to go now.
Goodbye to all. Take care.
Hello Mp how are you? He told a bunch of underage girls that he wanted to hear them fuck themselves.
Entropy, that's a very good point.
Thinking back on my thoughts that I had when that was posted, I for sure it was just because of the marriage. And I was okay with that. And I also believed that Gerard gave a very good explanation for his absense. He gave as much as any person in the public or fandom needed to know.
But come Projekt Rev and he still wasn't there, I knew there must have been something else.
I agree. Had the MCR camp not had known that Mikey was going to be on a PROLONGED absence, I don't believe we would have heard anything. Nothing about the "official" honeymoon either.
Goodnight CTV have sweet dreams
hey Miss t...so what's going on here?
Back in a while...
PS - Who the hell brings a wedding ring with them on tour? What the hell is wrong with Gerard?
I really think Mustard is right when she said, "When Mikey got married we were like family." The fans are not considered family anymore at least not to GW. He seems to treat them like an annoyance he has to put up with.
Bye CTV. Take care of yourself!
See you around :)
I think 2700 comments beats our old record, does it not?
I think we got over 3000 on one post, if I remember correctly. Trying to refresh & comment was bedlam. Seriously, Mayo, we're in dire need of a new post. Do it for me, luv? I've had a bad day :/
thatnk you mustard for letting me no.
*absence.
Is retarded after awhile.
PS - Who the hell brings a wedding ring with them on tour? What the hell is wrong with Gerard?
Please please somebody tell me it wasn't the same one he had when he was with Eliza. That would just be astoundingly contemptuous. I still believe that a lot of the public "courting" was a great big fuck you to his ex. Classy.
CTV you want to know who brings a wedding ring on tour. The same person who has ordained minster pop up out of no where to perform weddings.
Goodnight CTV.
What the hell is wrong with Gerard?
That's the million dollar question. Where to begin.
RW I felt the same way about the ex thing. It was just so soon and so public
Exactly, Mustard
I really think that is the reason. They used his marriage as the excuse for his absence. There would have been no reason for them to announce it otherwise.
Well I've seen the videos, I've read the discussions....
Can't say I'm surprised.
Hello darlings *kisses*
RW I felt the same way about the ex thing. It was just so soon and so public
And all the talk of the "new and improved girlfriend". I mean, seriously. That was a dig at someone, I don't doubt it for a minute.
Martha you are so funny. Breakfast then oh I think I'll get married. But don't forget he did have those lovely "Marks of Love" on him as that one ANON said. Shit, I'm still laughing over that one too. I really liked how he tried to wear a scarf on his neck. Hell he could have just said it was a curling iron accident.
Hello, Cupcake :) I don't think we've met yet.
Hello cupcake how are you? Elena I always though he had an accident with his vacuum cleaner.
Marks of love who the hell says that shit.
A pleasure to meet you RW!
I have put up the new entry in my blog. I know it is harsh but it echoes a lot of what you people have told me I missed.
I'm trying to post it in Buzznet where I know it will stir up a bee's hive but maybe that's what I want. Except Buzznet is being stupid and won't let the post go through.
Most of you know I've been banned from INO. But if anyone wants to post a link to my latest entry in there, I wouldn't mind. Post it anywhere. I've always said that.
Even if you have to "sneak" it into INO by getting a fake account and acting like a fangirl who is pissed off about what I said. Heehee ;D
I just think that words like what you all are saying should get out to Gerard Way. I think unfortunately Frank Iero is out of the picture. He might just need a break from doing all damage control. Who can blame him.
So let's try to bring it to the source and cut out the middle man. And give him a rest.
Thank you all so much for your help, for waiting for me, for being who you are and for hearing me out.
I hope that my voice, which is really all YOUR voices, makes it somewhere.
Hi MJ, I'm washed out, how about you?
Likewise, Cupcake!
