Don't ask about their personal lives. The 'when is the next album' question is hugely over done too.
You could ask about their break. They're planning on taking a break soon (before they make the next album), you could ask them what they're looking forward to about that or something.
Ask them what they feel about their fanbase. I always find that super-interesting. Like, how do they think they effect their fans...what effect do their fans have on them.
I would adore you for asking those last two questions;
How do they think they effect fans?
What effect do their fans have on them?

I would ask if they believe that their fanbase has changed. And whether they have experienced any backlash.

Ask them about what they got for Christmas! Wow
And, could you please ask Gerard if he got a hamster from a fan this year?

Stay away from personal questions (like the rumor said.)

Maybe ask them if they are planning to make up the shows that they had
to cancel Wink .

You could also ask how they feel about the fandom growing so much over
these past few years, and if it has had any effect on their sound or apperance on stage?

Congrats on the interview!
I think you should definitely ask the fan questions everyone has mentioned..
But please be sure to ask what they will be doing over their break.. We all know Frank has Skeleton Crew but, what will the rest of the guys be up to?

Be sure to post the interview after it happens! :]

hola soy de Colombia
creo q una de las mas interesantes es What effect do their fans have on them? porque muchas veces se a preguntado sobre que efecto producen en sus fan y esta es lo contrario
preguntales sobre la reprogramacion de sus conciertos cancelados como es nuestro caso.

I'm seconding not to ask any of them about their relationships or personal lives.
Them and the fans (especially) want to hear new, interesting questions. :D.

Do any of them have a most memorable moment meeting a fan?
Do you wish you had the time to go to gigs you want to see/Do you have time to still go to shows/Is touring with other bands enough for you that you don't need to go to shows.
What do they do with all of the gifts and art they recieve from fans?
If you could change one thing about the band, what would it be?
What've you done with your old Revenge outfits?

Those are just guideline questions.
Just try to ask stuff that hasn't really been asked before, because that's not really interesting.
Congratulations on the interview. It's nice of you to ask on here to get some ideas directly from the fans.
I hope you post it here when it's done. (: Good luck!

Well if you wanna be controversial you could ask Gerard how he feels about the sudden surge of "Gerard has changed" "Gerard's doing drugs and drinking again" and how some fans have suddenly lost faith in him.

But I agree with everyone else.

I've read a lot of mcr interviews
and before all of them the interviewer is given a list of what they can not ask about.
its normally stuff they've already talked about a lot or stuff they don't want to talk about e.g. personal lives.
So you'll know before you do the interview what you can not ask =]

My question would be if they had a time machine and could go back to the beginning of the band would they do anything differently?
