Making the Black Parade
by My Chemical Romance
INTRODUCTION
It was mere moments before we took the stage in a small club somewhere in Australia. It was right before they killed the lights but the hallway we stood in was dark and hot. Real hot. The crowd was growing impatient as our crew ran the final equipment checks and it suddenly occured to us that this was our last show on the "Revenge" tour. And though none of us remember for certain how many shows we played, we knew that the fight, the journey, took us from basements to the arenas... out of the van and off to the lions.
Making a record is like surgery without anesthetic. You first need to cut yourself up the middle. Then you have to rip out every single organ, every single part and lay them on a table. You then need to examine the parts, and the reality of the situation hits you. You find yourself saying things like "I didn't know that part was so ugly." Or "I better get a professional opinion about that." You go to bed hollow and then back to the operating room the next day... facing every fear, every disgusting thing you hate about yourself. Then you pop it all back in, sew yourself shut, and perform... You perform like your live depended on it- and in those perfect moments you find beauty you never knew existed. You find yourself and your friends all over again, you find something to fight for, something to love. Somehing to show the world.
-Know this-
Every record you make brings you closer to the end of your band.
That's why it's so painful - but that's also why it's so special.
~~~
We hopped in a rental car and started driving. It was late at night when we pulled p th these menacing iron gates, which held a sign that said:
The Paramour Private Residence. No Honking.
Bob hit a buzzer, excanged some words with an intercom, and the gates slowly opened. I always thought this was for the desired effect of making it as creepy as possible when you went in, and it worked. We stepped out of the car, grabbed our bags, and were let into our new home, The Paramour. It even sounds menacing, doesn't it? It was.
As soon as you stepped in, you got a "Shining" [A/N: Good Movie. XD] vibe. Right away it felt like this place was going to consume you and eventually it would. There were so many hallways that seemed to lead somewhere very dark, stiarways that led to places that were very cold. The whole place was cold. The whole place seemed haunted. We figured this would work for us.
We all drew numbers to see who got which room and it almost seemed like the house chose which one we got, because each room really seemed to fit each guy. Except Mikey. His room was terrifying to be in and I couldn't exactly tell you why... It just had a bad vibe to it.
More later. :]
Ahhh thank you so much!! Its like a scary story!! I can't wait for some more =]]] |

Am I the only one who's too lame to put the cards up on their wall because they don't want to put holes in them? xD
I need to stop being stupid and just put them up. xDD |

i love gerard's writing. and how mikey and bob both wrote a section, and then ray and frank did commentary on the songs. ray wrote a fucking mini-series about a couple songs, i swear. but he skipped over some other ones. and frank's were funny. yes, the tuba pwns all, and that tape recorder things /is/ creepy but awesome. |

Luckily my mom was there with me, and explained that the ribbon was to leave hanging out, so you could easily pull up the booklet and get at the CD.

I would have been pulling on it curiously for ages if not for her. xD |

ah, thank you! so, kill all your friends, although its mentioned in the cd notes, will come out with the next single? *still mildly confused*
I assume so- in several interviews it was stated that Kill All Your Friends was cut from the album at the last minute, hence why there was a commentary on it. I can only assume that it will be on the B-side of FLW in January. |

That's all well and good then.
I was kind of seriously disappointed when I saw that song wasn't on the album.
The title intigued me greatly to say the least.  |

But I think buying the regular edition would be dumb.
I could just pop it in an extra CD case if I want to carry it around. |
