March 24th 2008 - NEW MCR BOOK!!!

the way she feels.:

The book...even explained (in some detail) why matt was kicked out of the band and why Gee and Bert really arent friends anymore.

Really? Because the band has staunchly refused to discuss these matters, to my knowledge. Can you please post those quotes in here? Thank you.

I cant find the exact quotes but it said that Matt couldnt keep time for anything. He would go so many beats faster and he was being a real asshole towards the band. They said that "it wasnt fun playing in the band anymore".

As for Gee and Bert...
Apparently The USED cancelled out on MCR on a tour. When MyChem went on apparently Bert was standing there with a megaphone telling the crowd to leave MCR.

This is by my memory..
If you want the exact quotes.
I suggest you pick up the book.

i bought this book three days ago but i dont know its (relatively) new. i thought it was published around the same time as their other books. lol- silly me.

i got it you should buy it, its like $10.00 me and my sister split the money and bought it. its a good book!

I just went to hot topic today, and they were sold out. :[
But I ordered it online, so it's all good.

With the whole Gee and Bert thing, I had heard a long
while back that The Used had told some crowds not to
listen to MCR, or something. But I won't discuss that here
since it's probably more made for the rumor thread. :]

Overall- the book is good and i think this is the best MCR biography book so far but the only thing that disappoints me was the fact that all the pictures in it are in B&W.

No, those are all known facts already, with the exception of The Used supposedly cancelling some tour with MCR. I had a feeling there wouldn't be any unknown news in that book; that's why I haven't rushed out to buy it.

oh. well i didnt know them woops,
well this was a really good book though.

I don't know if anyones mentioned this..
but if you look at the very last page, it mentions INO.

Kinda cool in my opinion.

i got it! i love it =] i was surprised that there's pictures from projekt in it...

Did anybody notice the 'typo' in the beginning? When they
list the band members' names and what they play, they
said Frank played bass.

I kinda wish some of the pictures were in color too, but
B&W is all good. And I found it weirdly coincidental that
Gerard & Mikey's grandma passed away the day
before Thanksgiving, as did mine just last year the day
before Thanksgiving.

Anyway, it's a fantastic book. :]

maybe one day...:

yeah. i know.
i was like "OMG NFW!"

yea. i did notice that they said frank played bass.
but he plays rythmic guitar

i just picked up the book today, and it actually exceeded my expectations. i'm already a fourth of the way done

im so buying this book

you americans are lucky to have Hot-Topic i'll have to get it shipped over here to NZ. Sounds like a great book though!!

Shit. Why do I live in uruguay?

OMG ! i didnt see it ! and i was there today too ! awh man, i have to get a copy !

Wanne share some of the "why Gee and Bert really arent friends anymore" chapter?!

i just finished it yesterday, it took a combined total of maybe 3 hrs to read, because it was so well written and interesting.
i learned a few things i hadn't previously known, and i thought i knew almost everything about mcr.
as far as the bert/g fued.... it explained it as.... basically on warped tour in san diego, bert started telling people not to go watch my chem perform, and the whole thing was really sketchy. gerard thinks that it was done for publicity, and was hurt and didn't want to talk to bert anymore.

I actully was reading some of it in the store the other day haha.
it seems pretty good.
I love the Mikey pictures to ahah.
