Maybe I should have titled this "douchebag disease is contagious"....
Bob Bryer used his Twitter account to write the word "c--t" for all his fans and call it "art" and then, apparently according to someone at the NIN news site, he made a dick move in basically stealing his friend's idea and votes for making money for an animal shelter. Yes an animal shelter got money but he screwed over someone else to do it.
Feel free to pick up the conversations you left off on the other post.....

I think it just comes down to expecting more from them. I believed that they wouldn't fall into the rock stardom traps that so many other have and i can't help but scream about them doing it.
So now the shitstorm is brewing overhere as well?

No one ever knows how they would react to life experiences until you experience it yourself.
hello bc
true anon
But can't people at least try to react a certain way. A non destructive way
hi mj
Welp, I'm off to bed, goodnight MJ and anyone else about.
VV, I lost your email address, so can you send me an email? My address is listed on my profile page.
Goodnight everyone.
And for the "but it's funny" responses, if you consider wishing a man get ripped up by dogs funny, you'd probably fit in well at an MSI show.
Ugh, I never said anything about Frank getting ripped up by dogs but I wanted to cut him into pieces and feed him to stray dogs! ^_^
Please, read my comments thoroughly before quoting me, anon! Thank you!
Btw, every idiot who takes that kind of comments seriously just can't be helped. It's only my black humor and some people do know that.
It was just an expression of anger. I do that when I think that the OMG, I'm so angry now-phrase fails to express my feelings about something.
It's a way to blow off steam. I don't know, maybe it's a German thing or at least something we say in my city.
Saying things like I'm gonna rip off his/her head when you're angry at someone is a common phrase. Nobody takes it literally.
So calm down now! Your cute boys don't have to fear being slaughtered! Get over it!
Wow nearly 200 comments in one night.
If the bitching at members of the blog continues, I don't think I'll come here anymore.
We shouldn't be ripping each other to shreds.
Hello Safe, Siobhan and anons.
To my detractors yes I am back on the blog again. The one that I never leave. Now lets get some facts straight here. I didn't call you a troll because I disagree with you. I called you a troll because you came on here with the intend of shit stir. You made an attempt to do it at mayo's right after you tried to do it here.
Second everything you said was stuff you said to Amy the night I defended her. Yes defended her not got mad at her for post her rules. That was you.
Also If I didn't like Amy posting rules and I don;t like you posting comments taken from Mayo's blog that doesn't make me a hypocrite. I am still saying that I don't like things and they shouldn't be post in both situations no hyporacy there.
I just saw the 30 second preview of Desolation Row. LOL. Its ironic though that they're playing for a club of punk guys - the kind of guys that Gerard has always wanted respect from for the band, and the only way they could finally get that audience was to hire them as extras in their video. Teenagers at least was more reflective of their fanbase, this is just so fake. Gerard keeps saying the next album will be more punk, but punk is not something you force. You can see in the video they're trying way too hard and all they do is look ridiculous.
I think that those are their fans in the video. They just got wardrobe and make up to make them look punk.
hello again
Hi MJ and Anon.
Someone should tell Gerard that punks don't live in $1.4 million houses and buy their wives YSL.
Hey YSI!
hey!
i saw mikey wearing chanel glasses a while back and i was kinda disappointed in him but i didn't know why lol
God, but that video clip is embarrassing. I think the band needs to realize that it doesn't matter how much they change their style it isn't going to bring in an edgier crowd. The people they're going after are going to hear the name My Chemical Romance and then not bother to listen to the song or watch the video.
Besides, they aren't really true punk. They're just pretending to be punk, with fake black eyes and cuts to the forehead. Gerard is about as punk as he was an officer in WWII in the GOY video.
hello ysi
Besides, they aren't really true punk. They're just pretending to be punk
They must think fans are too stupid to know the difference.
The song isn't even in the top 100 on itunes, at least not at the moment.
They know that their fans will never question them
just watched the thirty second preview of desolation row... where DID those fellows with the mohawks come from? they're not the type of people who would like MCR!
where DID those fellows with the mohawks come from? they're not the type of people who would like MCR!
M-O-N-E-Y!
Hello everyone!
When I saw the pictures of the video shoot I thought by myself that they can't even bring real punks to appear as extras for their video.
How lame is that?
Btw, every idiot who takes that kind of comments seriously just can't be helped. It's only my black humor and some people do know that.
It was just an expression of anger.
That sounds like something Jimmy Urine would say to support his own words.
MJ nothing i said to you last night has ANYTHING to do with MCR. You can try as hard as you can to make it seem like that.
It has to do with your own hypocrisy and the way you ORDER people around thinking they will just bow to your will. "Don't do this, don't say that, you're not welcome, your words aren't supposed to be here".... VV even came in and set the record straight.
You are wrong MJ but you are too stubborn to see it, it's like talking to a mule.
^ Go away anon. That's over and done with, stop trying to drag it all back up again.
Did anyone see an annoying gnat in here?
Yes, but if you ignore it, it will eventually go away.
I'm surprised they didn't get Lynz flashing her crotch in the background of the video as that's so hxc.
7.18 I didn't say that, that was siobhan. And I wasn't making anything you said out to have to do with MCR.
I think the extras in the video are supposed to look like the punks from that time period (the mid-eighties). Where they failed with that is in the comic, they have "knot tops" I think they call them, but no mohawk wearing punks.
And the director of the film directed the video. One more reason to cause fans of the comic to worry about the film. :(
7.27 don't give them any ideas
They're just trying to get you to respond to them, MJ.
If you ignore them, they'll eventually go away.
7.29 I said the same thing about the video being directed by the movie director. I already thought the movie looked bad. Than with all the hype behind it I don't think it will be good.
7.30 they try and fuck with me at mayo's. I won't say any more to them beside what I just said.
Did anyone see an annoying gnat in here?
Nope! Did you?
I'm surprised they didn't get Lynz flashing her crotch in the background of the video as that's so hxc.
Hahahaha! That would have been hysterical!
I'm surprised they didn't get Lynz flashing her crotch in the background of the video as that's so hxc.
Shhhhhh! Gerard might hear you and get ideas.
Once MJ starts ignoring me I know it means that she has run out of bad excuses for her hypocritical behaviour.
I know she hasn't LEARNED anything from it and still thinks she's Queen Shit around here and at Mayo's, laying down the law at everyone she meets, but at least she'll stop trying to justify it with comebacks that make no sense whatsoever.
I know she hasn't LEARNED anything from it
Lol. I wasn't aware this was a school.
So the video is up on itunes does that mean it has shown on MTV.
hey!
i saw mikey wearing chanel glasses a while back and i was kinda disappointed in him but i didn't know why lol
I think that I read somewhere that Gerard had Chanel sunglasses but that they were a knock-off. Maybe Mikey inherited them?
So the video is up on itunes does that mean it has shown on MTV.
So, you only can see the preview for the video when you're in the U.S.?
I'm always asking myself why labels do such crappy stuff. Sometimes I wanted to watch music videos on the American MTV website and I wasn't able to do so due to the fact that I wasn't American and in America, respectively.
I mean, why make such fuss? I've listened to the song already so why can't I watch the video?
I think not to many people are looking at the preview because in years past when I would go look for the new MCR video on MTV.com I couldn't get it play. It said it was busy.
You are not alone on that one Siobhan
Another thing here. I think you know that there is no such thing as an international iTunes. So, I have to buy my crap from iTunes Germany and the other day I wanted to download some song by the Scorpions (who are a German hardrock band, btw) and they didn't have it. Wtf? German iTunes doesn't have the albums of a German rock band? That's ridiculous! iTunes is crap. No wonder that so many people are downloading their stuff illegally.
You are not alone on that one Siobhan
Good to know, MJ!
I download from amazon a lot. The songs cost the same and the sound quality is better. And often they have things that iTunes doesn't.
Is that available in Germany?
It may not be itunes Siobhan. Some bands have yet to make a deal to get their work on itunes. I know Metallica held out as long as they could but they gave in
I'm keeping a look out for the video on sharing comms I belong to. As soon as I find it I'll try to share with you guys.
thank you 8.13

I have to check that out, anon. Thanks for the tip!

Well, the funny thing is that they have all sorts of songs from the Scorpions covered by other rock bands on iTunes and therfore I think it has nothing to do with it. They also have an old 90's album on iTunes but I have that already. They just don't have the good old songs like 'Here I am (rock you like a hurricane)' or 'Still loving you' from the band themselves. They only have those crappy covers.
I'm keeping a look out for the video on sharing comms I belong to. As soon as I find it I'll try to share with you guys.
Yeah, thanks anon!
It would be cool if you could provide us with some laughter. ^_^
I think because it is a cover of the song they have to deal with the people who did the cover. It is some strange things. Like how if you don't want to play a lot of money for a song to use in a commercial you have someone do a cover. I think it is like that for itunes. You can't have the real artist but you can have the cover of their song.
Yes, that could be the case, MJ!
Oops, I take it back! I just watched the preview on MTV.com. I never tried to watch it before because someone came here and said that only people in the U.S. could watch it.
Well, what can I say...
Frank annoys me so much with his 'schrammel' attitude. He looks like a total idiot.
And am I the only one who thinks that they mainly used male extras to appear as their audience?
As far as I can see in that preview there are only two to three girls in the crowd.
I bet that's Gerard favorite concert scenario.
I used to belong to I think it was called download.com or something and they never had what I was looking for but they always had these shitty covers of the songs. Pissed me the fuck off. Or even worse they would only have the remix.
'schrammel' attitude.
I'm dumb, what schrammel?
We might see more women once we see the whole video. But from what i saw not to impressed. It seems to be the same old stuff we always she in their videos. Which recently. IT's sad because I thought the videos for INOK, Helena and GOY where great.

'schrammel' attitude.

January 30, 2009 8:45 AM
Safe I am right there with you.

Gaaaaaaaaaaaah! That's exactly what happens to me with iTunes all the time. You really have to be careful that the song is not a cover or some fucking remix. When I started using iTunes for the first time I almost always downloaded cover songs or remixes. Man, I was pissed off then. The thing is that you can't listen to a part of the song just like on Amazon to reassure yourself that you will be downloading the right one.
I wasted so much money on the fucking site. I had to pay by the month and I could never find what I was looking for and if you didn't use your downloads for the month you lost them.
Haha, sorry! 'Schrammeln' is a German word. It is mostly used to describe guitar players who are only holding one or two chords with one hand the whole song and look as if they would grate cheese on their guitar very quickly with the other.
I hope I made myself clear with that example, hahahaha.
Thank you for clearing it up
Somebody ripped the video and has it up on chemicalromance.
Don't know how long it will be there, so get it while you can.
Link
It reminded me of Linkin Parks video for bleed it out. I can say that even i I was still a fan this would be a song and video that i would be very disappointed with. Like I was with Teenagers.
If I had paid for that piece of crap (back when I used to be a fan), I would be pissed. Even if it is only a buck 99.
I felt the same way anon.
Ah, it's not that bad. I have to say if I wouldn't know the band I would have enjoyed watching it but since I know of their lame and desperate attempts of trying to appear hardcore it feels so forced. I had to laugh about some of those extras at the stage who were exaggerating way too much.
Even the song sounds better now while watching the video.
For me it was that bad. I was hoping that my first impress of the video was wrong.
Also that is the kind of video where if I cross it not knowing who it was I would have turn it off.
Ray owned that video with his solo. Frank just spat water everywhere - was that really necessary. And did anyone else laugh when Gerard was arrested at the end - if that happened in real life he would be shitting himself.
I think if they had gone with MCr go to jail I would have liked the video
I thought most videos for songs from a movie have the song intercut with clips from the movie. Like Paramore's Decode. It just seems strange that it's for the Watchmen, but if you didn't know about the connection between the two it isn't obvious from the music video. Is it a way of distancing the song from the movie perhaps.
And did anyone else laugh when Gerard was arrested at the end - if that happened in real life he would be shitting himself.
Lol. Gerard's favorite fantasy is probaby being arrested. After all, you know what they do to guys like him in prison. ^_~
Well, it's a typical punk song with typical elements of a punk song in it. If this had been their debut single they would probably work as cashiers at their local Walmart now instead of putting us to sleep with their nonsense blog entries on their shitty band website.
They have little things in the video that show up from the watchmen. I haven't read the book so all of them may not be obvious. I know the back round and the smiley face on the drums are from watchmen.
Wow, Gerard is so hardcore it's illegal.
LMFAO
Lol. Gerard's favorite fantasy is probaby being arrested. After all, you know what they do to guys like him in prison. ^_~
Bwahahahahahaha! That's what I found funny as well. Gerard trying to look all dangerous.
But where is the I'm against violence message in that video, Gerard?
I'm trying to connect this thing to Watchmen and I'm drawing a complete blank here.
*is confused* :/
Supposedly he did a radio interview recently. Some guy called Rob Lowe on radio 1.
Instead of ripping the track, you can just watch it here
Just scroll down and press play on the video. Much easier.
I'm trying to connect this thing to Watchmen and I'm drawing a complete blank here.
*is confused* :/
Of course you don't understand because you probably didn't read Watchmen when you were fifteen, therefore it did not shape who you are today by getting you to wear anti-social clothing and become a hardcore punk. Sheesh.
The police are arresting them for doing such a shitty cover of a classic song.
Lol @ the shirtless muscle dude and all the other tough looking dudes starting a riot because an MCR show is sold out.
Like that would ever happen.
Lol if that shirtless muscle dude winds up in the same cell as Gerard.
Something tells me Gerard would like that
you probably didn't read Watchmen when you were fifteen, therefore it did not shape who you are today by getting you to wear anti-social clothing and become a hardcore punk
Damn it all. This means I can never be a hardcore fan like Gerard. :(
I am still unclear about this. Is the video only going to be available on itunes to buy. Aren't they going to show it on Fuse or MTV .
Maybe. If either of them actually played a video.
Rob Lowe on radio 1.
LOL. ZANE Lowe.
As for the video - LAME. The only reason thoses people would be at an MCR concert it to kick the shit out of them not hear them play.
^ Oops. Well, you got what I meant.
Oh, and Frank needs to remove that Union Jack for his jacket. He's giving the UK a bad rep. Not as much as Kerrang has, but still.
Besides, they aren't really true punk. They're just pretending to be punk
----------------
If that's bad enough, just yesterday I read an article at mtv.com where Gerard said that he wanted to sound like the Sex Pistols.
I thought fuse played videos. MTV I know that they will play a video sometimes. Like every third Friday of the 13 month when the moon has aligned with the plants and plant x is visible
Jeff's still trying to sell the VERY limited edition vinyl of DR.
Now they have limited copies of the limited edition.
Hurry if you want it!
Bye!
bye safe hello bc
I wonder what John Lydon would think of MCR wanting to be like the Sex Pistols? I would love if someone would ask him.
JL hates Green day he says that they aren't punk so I think he would be pleased
Sorry, but does anyone of you know the show 'The war at home'?
I'm just watching the first episode and everytime I see that boy Larry and hear what his parents say about him, I have to think of Gerard.
I remember that show
Hi and bye safe. Hey there mj, anons.
I'm gonna go find the article and post it here.
It's so damn funny!
I only watched it a few times. I remember the son gets a goth girlfriend and in order to fit in with her becomes goth.
http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1603927/story.jhtml
Well, I couldn't find the article I mentioned, but that one was just posted an hour ago. Some of the fangirl's comments made me lol.
As for the DR clip, I think it sucks! Whoever said that the band is trying too hard to look edgy is right.
I think the other bone the fans might have to pick is having to pay to the video
As if they would have mentioned critical or even negative comments. It's advertisement for their new single and that's all.
I understand that MCR are in this to make money. But at what point do they stop and look at what they are doing. Any and everything that they can make money off of they will do.
I just have this little impulse to go sign up for an mtv account and say that the song sucks and see what happens.
I'm gonna go do that.
your just jealous because you can't have Gee. Ger-z forever
I think that will happen
I just have this little impulse to go sign up for an mtv account and say that the song sucks and see what happens.
I'm gonna go do that.
Go for it, BC! Boldly go where no one with a brain has gone before.
Are you Shatteredglass, BC? If so, well done!
Yeah, that's me anon. I had to say something. I haven't been to mtv.com for a while, but the last time I did, they definitely did NOT have those fangirl comments, or any other kind, supporting their article like that.
When I saw that for the first time today, I was literally thinking 'WTF?'
To the person who mentioned the Lynz flashing her crotch in the DR video, apparantly she was in it, just minus the crotch part.
http://www.buzznet.com/www/search/photos/my%20chemical%20romance/?p=0&id=66983351#pagesubnav
MJ, I don't doubt that whatsoever. I also signed up for that account just so someone can post a comment that can make me giggle.
^_^
Hahaha Siobhan. Already done. Hehe.
lol 2:08, I just watched the video and saw her in it, bopping up and down. I find it irritating that gerard can't do ANYTHING without incorporating Lynz somehow, which is stupid, seeing as its a band made up of FIVE people, not just him. You don't see any of the other guys wives, do you?
hi everyone
god how sickening she's always around like a bad smell. i agree with you though, the other guys have wives too.
Why did she have to be involved. She has already said that she's not into 'that shit' when asked if she liked comics. First we had MSI tainting the MCR tour and now we have her in their bloody video. Even if you wanted to continue supporting MCR and just tried to forget the whole MSI connection, you can't. They have to shove it in our face every chance they get.
That settles it, I am so not watching that video.
it's almost like he's trying to show her off, like some sort of prize. he probably thinks she's the ultimate woman and that everyone will be jealous of him so he shoves her in everyone's face and drops her name into every conversation.
unless he lurks around as an anon on the internet and has read so many fangirls going 'oooh she so beautiful oooh she's so talented oooh msi are amaaaazing their babies are going to look like angels!!!' he thinks everyone who likes mcr noww automatically like msi...
I didn't see her the first time I watched it until you pointed it out. *vomits* I just don't see why he had to involve her. I can just imagine the videos to their new album and the fangirls playing spot Lynz. Her band isn't that successful so she has to leach off of their success. If Gerard was a professional he would keep his private life seperate from the band, but he can't. She has to be involved in everything. If Mikey is ill again, I can just see her filling in for him.
Oh boy. It's on ONTD and there's lots of MCR hatred going on, along with the occasional fangirl comment, (although they haven't started their usual spamming yet). Give them time though and they'll be posting Frank picspams all over the damn thing.
Hi RW *squeeze!*
So Lyn-Z is definitely in the video? I'm glad I didn't watch it.
New York Magazine said the cover "isn't really doing it for us."
I'm looking forward to seeing what other reviews (besides fansites) say. Because I think it sucks.
some poor little fangirl called "twilighter" responded to your comment bc.
that name is giving her tons of credibility, now isn't it?
lmfao
Lol, BC I was just looking at that MTV page you commented on and apparantly "twilighter" is very unimpressed with you.
dammit, you beat me.
Haha, thanks anon. I'm gonna check it out.
And oh yeah, see, my url name has the words twilight sucks, so it's probably why she's responded to my comment :D
It rocks fu****g punk-ass style!!
no.
Of course she's in it! her job title is "Window Dressing;" why wouldn't she be?
Meh, I'm not even going to bother watching it. Not even the "train wreck" appeal could draw me to it.
So Lyn-Z is in the video then? I was gonna consider watching it, but after hearing about that, that gets a hell no for me.
GW can't keep his personal life and career seperate, and I find that to be a very annoying quality when it comes to band frontmen.
And honestly, I don't think Desolation Row is a great song. Heard it back in 2007 or last year at one of the My Chem concerts, and I didn't like it.
watching this video makes me realize that i just don't care about these guys anymore. i'm over them and ready to move on. go me.
have i read correctly?
"the wife" is in the clip? (i'm not going to bother watching it)
*laughs* honestly that is too funny for words
hello all.
I'm surprised Eliza didn't make a cameo appearance.
She could of been like the one's that were jumping off the balcony.
I'm surprised Eliza didn't make a cameo appearance.
I remember people were having kittens over the fact that Eliza was at the shoot for I Don't Love You - and she was just watching on the sidelines.
But at any rate, this isn't the first time he's had to have his 'significant other' on the set.
I'm surprised Gerard doesn't just kick Mikey out and have the wife take his place.
But at any rate, this isn't the first time he's had to have his 'significant other' on the set.
January 30, 2009 5:28 PM
You mean Bert has been on one of his sets? ^_~
You mean Bert has been on one of his sets? ^_~
It's such a shame they didn't really do that Prison video Gerard promised. It would have been amazing to see the two of them together back then. All of the live performances of Under Pressure that you find just suck so hard (Gerard's part, anyway, Bert nails his).
have you read mikey's last twitter?
----
I have just been informed that "Desolation Row" is the number 1 video on itunes. Hi-fives all around!! You guys are so good to us.

REALLY? :-O
I guess that's the reason of why they never bother to answer to the fans...
Um, where is Lyn-Z supposedly supposed to be in the video? I don't see her.
I don't see her either, anon.maybe it is just a look-a-like?
no that's definitely her. there's a link posted further up to buzznet where someone got a screencap. and then proceeded to put her own "copyright" on it. that was great.
lyn-z killed the blog.
Lynz is in deed in the video. You have to see the video either on buzznet or on iTunes. The quality is much better on those two sites than the video on YouTube. YouTube is much too blurry to notice her.
If I'm not mistaken she can be seen jumping in the first row close to the stage. When they do a tight shot of Mickey's face, look to your right (she's dressed in black and next to some other chick) and you can see her jumping and being a tool. The minutes run between 1:07 to 1:09. I tried to see if there were any more shots of her but that's all I could see.
Hope this helps...
hello,
Hearing she is in the video makes me glad i saw a bad version of it.
Hi there mj. I'm glad I didn't see the video at all, except the short clip of it.
BC it's good for a laugh.
That it is mj
I forgot what I was going to say.
Was just at Mayo's and saw this My Mindless Chemical Self Indulgent Romance . Now that Lyndsey appears in the clip sounds like a good name for them.
MMCSIR
Like the other anon said you can't get away from the mcr/msi connection. If the fan girls aren't going on about Gw is.
mmcsir is right
Apparently you are not allowed to give your opinion on MMCSIR at Mayo's even if you HAVE no opinion on them since Kap get yelled at for NOT saying anything.
That's kinda why Mayo's blog sucks anon. Sometimes you have to walk on eggshells when you're expressing an opinion about someone.
Earlier today though I said that I thought My Chem's version of DR sucked.
I try to stay away from mayo's. doesn't always work.
In a not too distant galaxy ...
OLD EMO BAND CHANGES THEIR LINE UP TO COINSIDE WITH NEW SINGLE
By B. Bends
The Black Parade is dead! Long live MMCSIR!
After the release of their awesome new single, those pretty boys in black had something else up their sleeves, a brand new band!.
*this work is entirely fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. End of blurb*
Lol
I am off for a bit anon have a good night
Lol anon :D
See you later mj
MMCSIR frontman Geehard Lay talks about their new sound. "We we aiming for a new punk vibe, really trashy, similar to great Snivelling Shits , so we worked it, and threw as much trash as we could, into it. It's strange how people's first reaction was, we sound like The Stooges."
LOL anon :D
"We we aiming for a new punk vibe,
---------------------
*snickers and giggles at the double we we*
Hehe.
Punks are into we we :)
I just saw the video on buzznet. I thought Lyn-z didn't want to be known as Mrs. Gerard Way, yet she appears in MCR's video? Awesome logic! Appear in their video, be seen jumping up and down and everyone will think you don't depend on your husband at all! THAT'S GENIUS!
Exactly ED. She's an idiot, but in all honesty, I didn't buy the "I hate being Ms. Gerard Way" logic.
I think she was only trying to draw attention to herself by pretending to bitch and whine about it.
Their video might be number one, but their single is only 89 out of 100.
Kapunua, do you mind if we steal the name Mrs Window Dressing? It's catchy.
Very few people knew or cared who she was before she started doing GW. If she had tried to flog her artwork before the marriage on ebay or her used boots they wouldn't have gone for much. Everything she has - the house, the monkey rentals, the handbags is because of her husband. And then she complains about it in kerrang. So what should she be known as - some skank who doesn't wash and flashes her crotch.
Maybe the other wives weren't punk enough to appear in the video. Because Lynz is a true punk. And if Gerard really believes that then he has no idea what punk really is.
3:26, did you see the video?! It was so lame and cleche like every other punk-rock video ever made, but this one just happened to be made 5 or 10 years after all the others! None of them have any sense of what punk is. I mean come on, the way they were caught by the police at the end- IT'S BEEN DONE!! Think up some new ideas, please.
The whole thing was artificial from the fake cuts and bruises to the fake audience. Most bands get their fans to come be in their videos, instead MCR had to hire some otherwise they would have ended up with a room full of teenage girls. Gerard keeps on about the band being more ‘punk’ as though if he says it enough times then people will actually start to believe it. I feel almost sorry for those teen girls that go on the message boards, saying how wonderful the video is, and how cute Mikey looks and OMG Lynz is in the video, she’s so beautiful and their baby is going to be so hot. Don’t they realise, Gerard doesn’t want them as fans anymore. Oh, he still wants them to buy all his bands crap, but he wants the hxc punk people. The kind of people that listen to MSI. We have always said how Lynz was using Gerard to promote her own band, but I think Gerard was very consciously also using her in order to reinforce this whole MCR is a punk band thing. Eliza had a very emo look, while Lynz does hxc things like backbends and crowd surfs while asking guys to finger her. In a way maybe its good they’re getting rid of the teenage fans, they’re the main readers of things like kerrang and the ones who vote for the silly mtv awards, once they’re done with MCR we’re stop hearing about them.
I feel like they just put Lindsey in the video to excite the fangirls.
Entertainment Weekly, the only really mainstream publication in the US who ever gives MCR the time of day was not kind about the new video. Read and smile.
Hello guys!
I think Gerard uses Lindsey to establish his new heterosexual/masculine image. He wants every single fan girl to finally realize that Lindsey is not going anywhere anytime soon and that he is not available anymore for the role as the cute teenage heartthrob. He will shove her down their throats until the choke.
I also think that nobody takes those fansheep's praises about them looking so cute together, Lindsey being so pretty, the baby being the hottest/prettiest/greatest kid in the world seriously. It's their way of not trying to sound like fan girls who are jealous and not wanting to piss of their master.

Thank-you for that anon. Finally, an honest review where they don't kiss Gerard's ass. I love how in the comments the fangirls are all up in arms about it.
From the article:
“Gerard Way and the boys are simply onstage looking like anemic, pasty-faced extras from Twilight putting one of Dylan's most beloved songs through their caffeinated emo grinder”
Best description of MCR ever.
*they and *off
Also, why did they get arrested in that video in the first place?
I mean, it's not that it was some secret/illegal show somewhere in an abandoned factory or something. It was a normal concert and the only ones who should have gotten arrested by the cops where the guys starting a riot in the foyer. The band wasn't even involved in that fight so why did they get arrested in the end?
That video makes absolutely no sense!
For what it's worth, I just added my comment to EW's review of Desolation Row.
I cannot adequately express how disappointed I am in Zack Snyder for directing this. Not only does it not mesh with the overall tone of Watchmen, it is possibly the most cliched attempt at representing "punk" that I have ever seen. The club, the cops, the riot, the arrests at the end... this has all been done before. Add in Gerard Way's fake black eye and split lip and what you've got here is a pop band playing Dress-Up. Never mind the fact that this band's fans are not dangerous "punks" but a horde of teenage girls.
I just hope this isn't an indication of what the film is going to be like.
I don't see your comment 6:04.
Oh wait. Sorry. You have to refresh the page.

I would say that the difference between Eliza and Lindsey is that at the end it got too obvious for Gerard what she really wanted from him, namely his money and bathing in his spotlight.
I bet that Lindsey used a more subtle approach by giving Gerard the feeling that it is actually him who wants to be engaged and get married (and have a baby so soon?).
It's always the best thing to give the guy the feeling as if it is him who's calling the shots and not the woman forcing him to do certain things, although in reality it is really her who's pulling the strings. Eliza just wasn't smart enough and Lindsey finally reaped the fruit of Eliza's labor.
Eliza killded the blog. :(

Siobhan I was think that as well.Out of the blue the cops are on stage beating up Ray. What the hell they beat ray and the rest of the band keep playing.
Siobhan your last comment reminds me of something Dee Snider once said. When The PMRC stuff was going on in DC.
Snider made a comment about Al Gores wife getting him to hold the hearings by cuddling up to him and sticking her hands down his pants. All the while telling him what a great thing it would be for him to go after music.

They arrested them because they tortured Dylan's song.

Gerard wants to appear 'edgy' for the wife. She probably gets off on the idea of sleeping with a convict.
Getting arrested is so hxc and punk. At least it is if you're 12 or your name is Gerard.

Just like I said before, if I wouldn't know MCR and had watched that video, I wouldn't have that much of a problem with it but since I know them and since I know how Gerard appeared at the beginning of their success, it's somehow painful to watch.
He is all attitude in that video. He looks so arrogant and full of himself. I can really see it at the beginning of the video, when they show his face for the first time. His facial expression speaks volumes to me. Yeah, I know that you all want me. I know that those fan girls want to see me naked, fuck me, suck my dick, have my babies and worship the ground I'm walking on. I'm da shit! And I'm aware of that. I know that. I'm so cool and I look so cool...
It's disgusting!
Getting arrested is so hxc and punk. At least it is if you're 12 or your name is Gerard.
So is running away and getting engaged and married after a few months of knowing each other.
It's so romantic, it's so hardcore, it's so punk too!
I wonder what Alan Moore would think if he saw that awful video. I doubt he ever will, but I couldn't see him being too impressed. He would see MCR for what they really are.
Arrested Emo Gerard Killed the blog.
Can someone give us a link to the video?
“Gerard Way and the boys are simply onstage looking like anemic, pasty-faced extras from Twilight putting one of Dylan's most beloved songs through their caffeinated emo grinder”

I love you EW.
There's a link to the video about half way down the previous page. Anon Jan 30 10.26

*dies laughing*
So, basically ever critic thinks the song sucks donkey balls and now they say that video is crap as well.
Unfortunately, it won't stop the fan girls from buying it and also downloading the video on iTunes.
Nothing ever stops the fangirls. They're a rampaging brigade of army ants.
Hi there RW *squeeze* Siobhan.
About the DR video, watching some of the clips, I was kinda wondering: What the hell does the 'punk' vibe of it has to do with the Watchmen movie?
