Oh, bloody hell yeh. My Chemical Romance is, in my mind at least, THE best band ever. I love MCR because they saved my life. Ever since I discovered them and started listening, my confidence grew and grew. I joined the school orchestra, drama club and now I'm starting my own band with a few friends. We're still thinking of a name. I have picked up new instruments and started to sing in public. Before it was just clarinet, which I still enjoy, but now, alongside that and singing, I play bass, piano and guitar. (: I used to have a prescription drug addiction but since finding MCR, and finding out about how they helped Gee with his addictions, I managed to beat mine too and have now been sober for 5 months. :) WOO! I also thought I'd mention that I don't believe they fit into 'emo'. I don't even see what this whole 'emo' thing is about. I'm 13 and 3/4, but I guess I'm not entirely 'with it'. I think pre danger days, they were a mixture of punk and goth, now I think just punk. But what I love about the band is, if they get fed up with how they are, they just change to how they want to be and this is evident in their songs.
btw, loving the new album guys, it's lovely to see how you're finding yourselves, as before, you were all dark and as a reaction to 9/11, I'm glad that you've found you can write about other subject matter. Loving all the synths in the new songs. I will be a MCR till the end of my life!
