Bob Leaves My Chemical Romance

The Rumor:

^ I just posted something similar on Mibba.

Great minds think alike, my friend. XD

I don't think Bob will go back to working with sound and such. Because he thinks drumming is way more fun. But who knows what he's gonna do next
( He said it himself here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfT6AEd2AlI )

Every record has a different sound but I don't think it could be the same as if Bob would have done it, 'cause it really doesn't matter how good the new drummer is going to be. He still would'nt came up with the same things that Bob would have. xD

We'll just have to wait and see how the record turns out. Hopefully awesome. And Bob, you will be missed <3

(Sorry for my bad english.. don't know if that made any sense but.)

^ No, it made perfect sense.

And so this is half way not spam...

I'm not sure what Bob is going to do. I'm still assuming he left for his health.

I found a great blog about the whole thing, and fans reactions here

Call me slow, but I found it to be really confusing. I didn't get it.

The Rumor:

^ Everyone needs to read that. Srsly. So true, every word.

Amen. She's my new hero, or at least Holden Caulefield.

Exactly. Strange how Mcr used to seem so sane and wonderful even like, two years back and now it's as if they're caught in this publicity whirligig. Bob and Ray were the only two people who gave stability to the band, and it's weird now that even when he was there, no one really gave him as much "attention" as Gerard, Mikey and Frank. I'm disillusioned.

What really got me was that I was watching the Life On the Murder Scene DVD the other day and Frank said,
"If there's a God, I thank him everyday for bringing us Bob"
I ALMOST cried, because MCR doesn't feel like MCR without Bob. ]:

I have to agree, they have been part of my life for the past 6 years, yes i was there for Matt, but Bob was it seemed to me more part of the family. I agree they have seemed distant recently, all I know is that I love them and I i really really hope they don't fall apart.

Horror Show.:

Hello Friends,

Recently it seems as though every time we write to you guys we have bad news, and we apologize for that, but we've learned in life you can't have the sweet without the sour. As a band we have been very fortunate over the years that our sweet times have greatly outweighed the sour ones, and a great deal of that is owed to you, the fans. Which is why we wanted this news to come from us and not some bullshit gossip site.

As of 4 weeks ago, My Chemical Romance and Bob Bryar parted ways. This was a painful decision for all of us to make and was not taken lightly. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors and expect you all to do the same.

We also wanted to give you all a quick heads up on how the record is progressing. We have been writing some very powerful new songs so this week the four of us entered the studio once again, and what has been ending up on tape each night is some of the most exciting and honest work we have ever created.

We hope this letter finds you well, we miss you...
talk to you soon,
xo MCR

okay, this is what I have to say, RE: the bold bits.

Right, so Bob left the band 4 weeks before this blog was posted.
Fair enough.

But Frank did not mention how Gerard's throat was, if it was better or worse. In fact, he said that they had been recording

Wouldn't it have been a bit difficult to record songs if you had a tour cancelling throat infection?

-This is just something that popped into my head, I am waiting for official word from the guys about why they cancelled the tour, or some word about Gerard's throat in general, I am not saying that they are liars and that they coveredup Bob leaving(resulting in them cancelling) by making up a throat infection. He probably did have a throat infection. This is me; Jus' Sayin'. So don't hate.-

He said they started recording the week the blog was posted...? I don't know when the date they cancelled is/was though.

Just being devil's advocate... maybe they were laying down the guitar sections and Gee didn't need to be singing? It could happen

The Rumor:

^ Yeah, exactly. There's way more to the music than just Gerard's voice.

Could you imagine if it was?
If all it was was just Gerard singing.

Sure he sounds OKAY. I mean, i love G as much as the next person does but He isn't ness. perfect, OR sounds like an angel.

And if you listen, do you know how many different riffs and rhythms and melodies there are? It is ridiculous..

I know its a bit off topic, but im just trying to honesty imagine a CD without all that chaos in the back.

Beautiful chaos.

Without them it would be Gerard... a capella...

lycia.:

Without them it would be Gerard... a capella...

...I know, I study music.
I was just making a point.

This is a VERY late reply on my part since I haven't been active on INO since last year...? But anway.

I'm very sad that Bob Bryar has left the band </3
Yes I listened to MCR since I Brought You My Bullets came out but I never grew as attached to Matt as I did with Bob. Now it feels like My Chem will be a million times different without my favorite drummer of all time. It's sad that I'll never really hear anything else he does unless I listen to The Black Parade or Life on the Murder Scene ; ;

I love bob. I was so shocked when I heard this. But unfortunately, the band is business. They will find a new drummer who is competent, and it will sound good. it will bring a new dynamic to the band. I love bob and he will always hold a place in my heart. He is one in a million. But they will carry on. unfortunately a lot of bands go through many drummers.

does anyone know if this is why it is taking them to long to release their new record??

as far as the whole throat issues and bob's departure goes....
when if rains, it pours....sometimes.
and both could have happened simultaneously or right around the same time.
it happens.
a few seem to think otherwise though O_o
