Gerard on Teenies

Lmao! Nice!!

I think that they are all hot..BUT I love the music, and the message to!! See? I love it all!!!!!!

I hate teenies. That statement kicks ass.

lovex2xhate:

Doesn't it annoy you when people "marry" MCR members over the net. ITS SAD AND ITS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN. www.43things.com/things/view/119274

see sad people

disturbed by website *shiver*

That is very annoying and disturbing.
When I went to their concert in NJ last year, there were 2 preppy girls there with Mrs. Gerard Way hoodies. I find that dumb.

^wow...that's creepy
k..two points:
1-I knew i loved mcr before i ever saw them. their message is so clear, and it's put in a way that is accessible to everyone, without having to be completely upfront (i hope that makes sense to everyone else). It's just a nice perk that the band members are quite attractive. you can't take that away from em'

2-I think it's quite ironic that Gerard says it pisses him off that there's all these people (hopefully just girls?) that only like the band because they want to fuck him, but he is certainly not helping that cause by having fake (i hope) orgasms on stage and grabbing himself everywhere (not that most of us mind). yes...we can all say it...TEASE. I'm sure it's completely on purpose but it just makes me laugh. such a twisted sense of humor...

rock on gee! yeah teenies are freakin annoying. . . and then after they read stuff like this they are all like "well mcr sucks because we have no chance in hell with gerard"

xx_mcr_princess_xx:

There's this chick in my class and she's such a teenie for MCR. It annoys the shit out of me. She is always going on and on about how hot Gerard is and everything when she has never listened to their music. Yes. Gerard is extremely attractive but so are the other 4 members =D

In the U.K, at my school, I got 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love' for christmas, I thought the world of this c.d. So one day I took it into school, this one boy screamed 'goth' at me and the posers followed. Due too their sucess with 'Black Parade' everyone at my school is in love with the band, just the band not the music just objectefying(if thats a word) them. It's wrong. And the worse part is, That boy and his 'friends' who called me goth is going to see them in concert, at wembely, on march 25th. I can't go.

My thought is this. No one likes a teenie. They were a little more accepted 10 years ago when boy bands were the "it" thing, but they definitely don't belong on the punk rock scene. However, for as many people as there are who helped MCR gain popularity simply by their music (me being on of them...yeah!), there are just as many people who just noticed "sexy Gerard" and started buying albums and merch and shit. and even though those are not the people who the music is meant for, they have a big part in elevating the band to the popularity they have now.
-please don't read this the wrong way, I am in no way pro-teenie-rather the opposite
I just happened to come across the thought of the irony, and was amused.....

I agree totally. You took the words right out of my mouth. I don't mean any disrespect to anyone who has posted thus far, but personally for me, I don't really see what the hype is about. If you love their music, if you see beyond their attractiveness, if you really appreciate them, then good for you. You're a true fan of their music.

But that doesn't mean that there won't be people who can't see beyond their appearance. If they can't decipher and pay attention to the message behind MCR's songs, and you can, well then more power to you.

There're BOUND to be teenies. I'm not pro-teenie too, but it's just something that all major bands cannot escape.

hotel-bella-muerte:

yeah. i get it now. go gee, he so rocks. i liked their music way before i liked how hot they were.

teenies are shitheads. yeah!

Me too. (:

Mm-mh. Your right.

I've just spent quite a lot of time reading these posts and what everyone seems to be missing is the fact that the band are well aware that their image is a large part of their popularity, be it with 'teenies' or those who believe they like the band purely for 'the music'. Image is a massive part of any band, no matter how they try to deny it, it is part and parcel of what attracts people to them. Honestly, would people really like them as much if they wore plain jeans and tshirt rather than a bullet-proof vest or military uniform? The whole show would lose it's spark, there would be no drama. There's a reason that they asthetically transformed for The Black Parade. The band knew that it would attract attention, because they really are all a lot more handsome nowadays. And coupled with the music, it has helped this record become such a great success.
Personally, I disliked MCR both for their music AND their looks before TBP, though in true 'teenie' fashion I bloody loved I'm Not Okay, who wouldn't eh?! But I then heard Welcome. . , considered it a pretty good intro to a song and thought little more about it, not being a fan. Then I saw Gerard Way sporting the short blonde hair, and thought 'goddamn that is one goodlooking man!' Which in turn led to me actually *listening* to Welcome. . actually going out and buying the record because I thought it was a brilliant, epic song. I love every song on the album, and i even picked up 3 cheers in the hmv sale and take back everything I said about MCR being 'rubbish emo-crap'.
It kinda upsets me that Gerard would put down fans who want to 'fuck' him; they are no willing to go out and spend their money on the band, they are still his livelihood. It was only because I recognised that he is well and truely fit that I got into the music, and I dont see anything wrong with that. Any way that can get kids to listen to what they have to say is good by me and , generally, most people grow out of the whole 'OMFG I WANT HIS BABIES' thing. There's nothing wrong with wanting to fuck someone you find attractive or inspirational, it's perfectly natural. Crushes are there to prepare people for real relationships after all. Only you learn to be more subtle about it once you see that it makes you come across as a tad sychophantic. . .

Jeez that's turned out as something of an essay, ooops!
Love to y'all innit x

Yeah I see what you mean, but i figure if looking good is a way to get people to listen to what you have to say and appreciate it, then that's not all bad. Plus it is a lovely added bonus for the fans
They know how they've touched people's lives and helped people so much. I've only been aware of what a good band they are for a very short time, but in that time what's most surprised me is how much they've touched the personal lives of their fans. They really do seem to be a band that can save your life i suppose.
For me, a band isn't just the music: it's the look, the live show, the interviews, what they wear and say. Obviously good music is the foundation that it's all built on, but when all the rest falls into place too it signals the making of something brilliant. And unfortunately, with that always seems to come the people screaming for the hot lead-singer. But the screaming girls are the ones who allow the band to reach a much wider audience and become more popular because they are effiectively funding their records. If it wasn't for them going out and buying the records and the merch then it's likely that there would be no Black Parade.
And in the end, girls getting crushes on you is part of being in a band.

^^ That was well thought out.

Oh, and welcome to INO!

Thanks! *waves and does a little dance*

Although reading what I wrote back I've come to the conclusion that I think about these things waaay too much hehe.

LOL.

Don't worry I believe it's the same for everyone of us here!

hehe that is nice to know!

I'll probably not be quite so serious in future though, it just annoys me a little when bands and their fans (ooh that rhymes!) make an issue against people who have crushes on them. I mean i'm pretty sure I read somewhere that gerard used to stalk Chistina Ricci or someone? Heh. And though I do hate to admit it, there are always times when I just would quite like to post an 'OMG I sooooo would innit!!!!!1!L!jk!'

But before I destroy all credibility of the original point, I shall shut up! xx

I heard MCR on the radio before i actually saw pictures. As soon as i heard tht song (cant remember which lol) i knew i luvd thm! So i kept listenin and waitin for the name of the band and jumped on my comp and started listenin.. THEN i found pics and yeah, they ARE hot but if they were mingin i'd still love thm

me too. I fell in love with their music before i had ever seen a picture of them.
