The Crow 4 saga my beloved
clip from an Alt Press article: DID SOMEONE PUT ERIC DRAVEN ON THE GUEST LIST? If it's December and you're in Chicago, you're freezing your ass off. Unless you're in My Chemical Romance; then you're just nestling in the warm dressing room of the House Of Blues, waiting for soundcheck, chain smoking, ingesting copious amounts of coffee and obsessing over The Crow. While the members of MCR-frontman Gerard Way, guitarists Frank lero and Ray Toro, bassist Mikey Way and auxiliary members James Dewees (keyboards) and Mike Pedicone (drums)-will testify to the awesomeness of both the original comic and its 1994 movie counterpart starring the late Brandon Lee, they're excitedly riffing on the decidedly inferior, shark-jumping sequels. "I'm going to get on Twitter and say if anybody can bring us a copy of Crow 4: Wicked Prayer, they can see the show and get some stuff," says Toro, hammering out the request on his iPhone. Ray Toro tweet 12/15/10 We need 1 real boxed copy of the Crow 4 with Eddie Furlong. It gets you...something. Bring to Chicago, Detroit, or Toronto if you have it! later clip from same Alt Press article The members of My Chemical Romance can revel in both the adulation , and the hatred, because their output is touching both hearts and nerves, equally. Oh, and earlier that afternoon at a meet-and-greet, a fan (celebrating her birthday, no less), presented the band with the Crow DVDs they were obsessing over a few days ago. The group posed for a photo with the fan, making the Crow logo with their hands and Gerard yelling, "Ka-KAW!' as the camera flash went off.

a post on twt, granted it’s hearsay but no more unreliable than the 20 million people saying “there’s no way they couldn’t do anything about it”
from what I researched last year when we had a similar fiasco, and what I know from musician friends about the cost of touring, it’s pretty accurate

you could tell he was having such a good time on the tour 🖤
they all seemed like big kids living out their dreams every night
Frank Iero Instagram selfie frankieromustdie Shaky Knees was an absolute blast. Thank you Tim, thank you Atlanta, Thank you Rock n Roll. What a way to end a tour, and what a night to play the last show of my 43rd year alive. Truth be told, i didn't want it to end... i would have played all night if possible. To my brothers in Mychem and to our incredible crew thank you from the bottom of my heart and the top of my soul. These past few months have been quite a few dreams come true. to everyone who came out to any or all of the shows thank you, i hope you had half as much fun as i did. I was lucky enough to catch some truly inspiring acts this summer, and l'll get more into that later this week maybe. in the meantime here's some clips and such of what skunk and i were able to catch at shaky knees. Glad we got to stay an extra day to see Weird Al again. KTF xofrnk

best review I’ve read of the tour so far, the writer gets it
#MCR #MCRTX
Way is a practiced showman and masterfully commanded the crowd, strutting about the stage in his military band uniform, his character playing like the demonic offspring of The Emcee from Cabaret and Heath Ledger's Joker. At one point, the audience voted on whether four people who questioned "the vitality" of the Grand Immortal Dictator should be put to death. Red "yea" and black "nay" signs were available throughout the venue before the "It's a lot show, and the crowd held them high. "It's a lot of fucking red!" cackled Way, before saying he could tell the vote was close and decided it was best to give the people what they want - ordering the criminals "executed" by firing squad on stage. It was dark, but the audience participation, the willingness of the crowd to be acolytes of the Black Parade, made the show feel interactive, like something you could be complicit in instead of merely an observer of. More bloodshed came later in the evening, when a clown stabbed Way's character to death on stage before doing a dance routine to The Black Parade's hidden track, "Blood." The song ended with the clown detonating a suicide vest. As odd as that all may seem, it worked. And the crowd ate it up. People showed up for the concert with their faces painted black and white, they dressed in outfits inspired by the costumes of the Black Parade, and nearly everyone else at least got the memo that MCR is a black attire affair. From the opening of the first song until the end of the evening, every line sung by Way was echoed by thousands of voices in Globe Life Field; people danced and cheered and waved their phones around, flashlights on, encouraged by Way, who made multiple mentions of how seeing all the lights in the crowd felt like looking at the stars over Texas. After they finished playing The Black Parade, the band took a short break for an outfit change. Rather than leaving the audience in stunned silence in the aftermath of the symphony of chaos Way had spent the evening conducting, they brought out cellist Clarice Jensen, who played a beautiful instrumental called "From A to B" while the band's B stage was prepped. When MCR returned, they had stripped away the artifice of their Black Parade alter-egos. Instead of uniforms, they wore T-shirts, jackets and jeans. Way spoke directly to the audience, not as the megalomaniacal representative of a fascist dictator but as himself. Gone was the atmospheric gloom of the first set, replaced by something more relaxed, joyous, sweeter and sillier. The second half of the show may have lacked the cohesion of The Black Parade, but it made up for that with pure energy. The audience erupted when the band launched into songs from Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge (the MCR album preceding The Black Parade); in fact, the audience erupted basically anytime someone on stage made a sound. The floor was an undulating mass of bodies, hands in the air, cameramen capturing audience members singing along with Way. At times, it felt less like people were there to be entertained than they were to worship at the altar of MCR. That's the kind of relationship the band's audience has to them. My Chemical Romance has created art that has outlasted its original run, touched multiple generations and influenced the artists who came after it. For over two decades, they have been playing music that makes the unseen feel seen, and for over two hours on an August night, MCR's fans showed the band how much that means to them.
