I get the impression he met Lyn Z on the Projekt Revolution Tour. Mindless Self Indulgence is part of the act along with MCR, Linkin Park and there are other bands but I can't remember their names. Actually there are a bunch of pictures in the latest Rolling Stone about the tour. There is a picture of Lyn Z and also Gerard with Chester Bennington.

Hey, I finally bought the Black Parade today and I love it. However, I noticed a few things. In Teenagers they say "They scare the S**T out of my instead of F**K on the video. Also in the liner credits on contributing vocals, anyone know who Linda Iero and Donna Lee Way are? I'm guessing a relation to Frankie and Gerard/Mikey.

Linda im sure is Frankies mom and Donna Lee Way is probably Mikey and Gerard's mom Thanks! I couldn't find this on the CD liner but I think Frankie does lead guitar and Ray the rhythm guitar? Just curious. I really like the guitar riffs on Teenagers.

k..i'm seriously an MCR MANIAC!! i've been a fan since bullets.so here is the truth about gerard and frankie's "fight" , gerard and eliza, gerard and lyn-z....and other stuff too for anyone interested...
The fight wasn't a serious thing....it wasn't over an ex or anything what happened is if you watched a little bit before the fight frankie kicked Matt cortez (the guy who was temporarily playing bass for mikey) in the balls and for some reason gerard got really mad over it and felt he crossed the line. Then a few seconds later, frankie went to hug gerard and kiss him on the cheek for the whole ferard moment but gerard was really pissed about frankie kicking matt in the balls and pushed frankie ay not meaning to harm frankie in any way shape or form, but frankie had been standing on an on stage amp in order to reach gerard so when gerard pushed him he lost his balance and went to grab on to gerard to regain balance but gerard thought he was doing it in revenge so then gerard went and was pushing frankie around and what not and knocked him to the ground. Then after it was over you heard in one clip gerard saying too far way too far in regards to the whole frankie thing. The guys made up backstage after the show. Frankie is the one that everyone believes wrote the letter on behalf of himself, ray, bob, and possibly even mikey. Mikey as you all know was off the tour from mid April until the end of projekt revolution because on March 7th 2007 he married Alicia Simmons and the band decided to give him a break from the road with Alicia to settle into married life, during the break they bought a home in NJ, got a new puppy, and adjusted to their new life. Any way, Alicia as some may know is friends with eliza, and is also part of the Worlds Most Hated Crew. which also includes Sarah dope, the terrible miss E, Jeffree Star, Mikey, Meghan Mayhem, and Eliza. Any way, word is that Megan Mayhem is pretty good friends with gerard, and so she tried telling him the truth about Eliza because she knew gerard was going to get hurt in the end and didn't want to see that happen to him. So she told the other members of MCR figuring that they'd be able to break it to gerard and get him to see it for himself better than she could. The whole time gerard and eliza were together she would drop hints on her myspaces,live journals, buzznet, and other sites about her relationship with him. Finally he figured it out its his personal buisness and i won't say what i know about how he figured it out but they broke up. The truth about the origional ring he was seen wearing in the i don't love you and teenagers video's is that it was his grandmother's ring, and mikey used to wear it until mikey was about to get married than he gave it to gerard who began wearing it, and of course because gerards the front man and is more secretive about his love life than mikey, rumors began flying that he was married. The truth is that he hadn't purposed to eliza yet, but he was ring shopping when he broke it off with her. A long time ago gerard had met Lyn-z the bassist of mindless self indulgence, and they hung out a few times but never pursed a relationship because they were both in relationships when they first met, and gerard obviously was with eliza for 61/2yrs before breaking it off. Gerard and Lyn-z got married backstage after the last projekt revolution show and are really happy. Rumors are flying that gerard has suffered a relapse with his drug and alcohol addictions. These rumors are FALSE i know for a FACT because i personally asked ALICIA....any way...heres some more background info on the band, their 3 albums, and ya..
Ok, the origional band was Gerard, Ray, Mikey, and Matt P., then right before recording the bands first cd I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love in 2002. they decided to add another guitarist to the band which is when they brought frank into the picture. Frank had sang lead for his old band Pency prep, which was actually doing pretty good and had recorded 2 or 3 lp's on eyeball records, when mcr first started out, and he got mcr their first 11 shows because his cousin put on shows. When franks band pencey prep fell apart, he formed another band called i am a graveyard which also fell apart at which point they asked him to join MCR. and then 2 day's later the band was in the studio to record bullets. frank only played on 2 songs on that cd one of which was early sunsets over monroeville. The band signed with manager Brian schechtor in i believe it was may 2003 but it may have been February 03. The band recieved offers from mor labels right off the bat but had signed with eyeball and asked all the labels to kindly leave them be and allow them time to just be a band. A year later the band signed to Reprise records, in 2003. then in 2004 they release their mor label debut Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, the album sold over 11,000 copies in its first week of release. Gerard began drinking heavily and eventually doing cocaine he got himself sober as of August 11th 2004 and has STAYED clean ever since.. Also that summer the band decided to ask their drummer Matt P. to leave the band he now works as a mechanic in New Jersey. The band then brought in Bob Bryar who is from chicago and worked as a front house sound band for multiple bands on multiple mor tours. After finishing the album The Black Parade the band released Welcome to the black parade as their first single. When the band recorded the video for it they also recorded the video for the song famous last words, the two video's were shot back to back. As you can imagine the guys where exhausted, and in the famous last words video they set the float on fire behind bob. Due to the extreme heat and exhaustion crazy things happened, 1 was frank falling on top of gerard and causing gerard to tear all the ligaments in his foot. Also bob bryar sustained mor burns to his calf, which later became infected causing the band to miss some tour dates in order for him to seek treatment.
Frank- Frank is engaged to a, they are getting married in March 2008, they've been together since high school, he's a Vegitarian, he has multiple dogs, he suffers from epstien barr syndrome,which means he's pretty much always tired. During the bands tour he had to leave for a while because he'd had his wisdom teeth pulled, and the dentist ripped the sinus wall, and doctors told him he couldn't fly or he would bleed heavily. They also put him on multiple medications causing him to become ill and also loose weight. Frank was one semester shy of getting his college degree in psychology but dropped out because the band was taking off and he didn't feel school had anything for him any more, but believes to this day he should have gotten his degree in order to have something to fall back on if MCR didn't work out. During one of the bands first tours frank kidnapped their van, and went to a tattoo parlor and got a scorpion tattoo'd as high up on his neck as possible so that he couldn't ever get a real job. frank is only 5ft 4. and mainly uses Les Paul custom Elitist guitars. Most famous of them is/was PANSY r.i.p. pansy was sadly broken by an MTV Tech. he also has belle, and texas. Frankie hates when pictures of him and a get posted all over the internet because he believes they are their personal pictures and not for anyone else to see. he and a co own his clothing line/record label Skeleton Crew on which he has his side project Leathermouth. Gerard- played peter pan in middle school. is an art school grad, was working for the cartoon network when september 11th happened he was on a ferry going to work when the towers fell, and s the bodies falling and thats what inspired him to start the band, and he wrote skylines and turnstiles as his way of getting over 9/11. He says despite all the concept stuff in 3 cheers for sweet revenge, when you really break it down its really about two boys who lost their grandma (gerard and mikey's grandma "helena" passed ay while they were making the record) she inspired the song helena. Gerard is a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, and also suffers from depression. he also suffers from trictaphobia (sp?) which is the fear of needles which is why he has no tattoo's. he often writes things on his arms and neck for shows for entertainment value. He wrote the song sleep about the nightmares he was having in the paramore mansion.
Mikey is gerards younger brother, he came up with the name of the band after reading the blurb on the inside cover of an irvine welsch book he read 3 tales of chemical romances, and came up with my chemical romance. MIkey plays bass, and although its been said he learned bass in order to play in mcr its completely false. Gerard and mikey had another band together called ray gun jones in which mikey played bass and gerard sung. Mikey way suffers from bipolar disorder as well as anxiety attacks, which is why he stayed in one spot on stage. He tried to hide his depression through alcohol and pills. But when the band moved into the paramore mansion to write the songs for their 3rd album and 2nd mor label release welcome to the black parade, Mikey's depression became the mor issue. he began having nightmares due in large part to the belief that the mansion is haunted. He would often break down and cry infront of the band, and began having thoughts of suicide. The band knew mikey couldn't stay with them and live, so they sent him to live with the bands lyer in l.a. and attend therapy sessions. After a couple month's mikey was well enough to start coming back in to the mansion for day trips to write with the band. During his absence the band wrote the song Famous last words about him and what had happened. In 2005 mikey met his now wife Alicia i believe they met at a from first to last show but i'm not postive. Alicia was working as a fill in bass player for FFTL on the dead by dn 2 tour. The couple got engaged on either x-mas eve 05 or New years eve 06 can't remember which. They'd origionally planned a big wedding in NYC for this past may but due to leaks of information and MCR'S ever changing tour schedule plans were scrapped and the two were we backstage after the band played their show in Las Vegas on March 7th. one month later it was announced mikey would be leaving MCR temporarily, in order to have a proper honeymoon and settle in to married life. Later it was announced his fill in would be matt cortez who worked/works as frankie and mikey's bass/guitar tech and has been around since the beginning of everything. After leaving Mikey and Alicia went on a proper honeymoon, purchased a new house, and a new puppy they named piglet tree. Ray met gerard and mikey through a mutual friend, and says he was closer to mikey because gerard was this weird introverted artist who never left his house. So the only time ray s him was when he was over their house, or later on at the practice studio. Ray is puerto rican, and his real name is Raymond Torro Ortiz. don't call him that though he gets mad.Ray revealed in an interview a few month's back that his girlfriends mother had passed ay from cancer, so every time his girlfriend hears the song CANCER she cries, he also revealed (much to their dismay) that gerard and mikey's aunt is battling cancer. Ray grew up right around the corner from west hudson park in NJ. He and the rest of mcr say that they weren't allowed to go out and play a lot as kids because their parents were afraid because their were a lot of murders and drug related crimes Bob is the only one of the band that is not from NJ, he is origionally from Chicago and resides right outside of their to this day. Bob met MCR when they were touring with The Used, bob was working front of house sound for the used tour, and bob was a huge fan of MCR. Bob joined MCR towards the end of July of 04 and contrary to popular belief he did NOT play on 3 cheers for sweet revenge that was Matt. The band shot the I'm not ok video with bob in it before he'd even played a single show with them. Bob hates being filmed and any time he sees a camera he either turns the other way, kicks it, hits it, or smashes it.
