So I was on Perez Hilton and saw this interesting little tidbit of info...:

Quote
Palmer is apparently parading Evelyn Evelyn around as though the band actually singing conjoined twins who grew up in the circus and are accompanied on tour by the singer and her bandmate...

Bean will be singing on a track called "My Space," with other contributers Weird Al Yankovic, Tegan & Sara, and My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way.

wikipedia about the Evelyn Evelyn LP:
The Evelyn Evelyn LP is the debut album by conjoined-twins, Evelyn Evelyn. Like their debut EP 7" vinyl, Elephant Elephant (2007), it is produced and presented by Amanda Palmer and Jason Webley. It will be released on March 30, 2010, though a pre-order is expected to begin soon...

One of the tracks from the album, "My Space", is set to include guest vocals from Kim and Zoe Boekbinder, Margaret Cho, Corn Mo, Chantal Claret, Frances Bean Cobain, Neil Gaiman, Ethan Gold, Ari Gold, Eugene Mirman, Franz Nikolay, Amanda Palmer, Reverend Peyton, Tegan and Sara, Soko, Jimmy Urine, Kirsten Vangsness, Andrew W.K., My Chemical Romance vocalist Gerard Way, Jason Webley, and “Weird Al” Yankovic.
from twentyfourbit:
And now the soon-to-be-viral news: Their eponymous full-length album will include “an anthemic 80’s power ballad entitled ‘My Space’” featuring “gang vocals” by “Weird Al” Yankovic, My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way, Andrew WK, writer/Palmer fiancé Neil Gaiman, Tegan and Sara, and Frances Bean Cobain.

The album is due out March 30th on Eleven Records (take that Roadrunner!) and a European tour has been announced with a full US and Canadian tour to follow. Meanwhile, watch Palmer and Webley perform as faux-conjoined twins here, download a free track that they’ve given us to share here, or stream a few Evelyn Evelyn songs on the MySpace page where “they were discovered” here.

**Update: We need to add more names to the epic list above! According to Chantal Claret, she and members of Mindless Self Indulgence (her husband, Jimmy Urine is their frontman and Gerard Way’s wife, Lyn-Z, is their bassist) have also contributed to this project. Wow, I can’t wait to hear this thing.

So after the longest post i've made in a while, what do you guys think? This explains that one article about the release of a so-called "My Chemical Romance album" March 30. Sounds like it will be interesting...

I've been thinking the same thing as to why so many people were quoting March 30 as the MCR album release date.

Honestly, I'm more curious about Francis Bean being on it more than anyone else.

As am I, it will be interesting to see if the daughter of 2 legendary (idc, courtney is a legendary 90's artist to me) musicians will be a good singer.

Oh wow I just saw this the other day. This should be an interesting collaboration, with all these different artists in one track. Can't wait to hear what it sounds like.

Guess it solves the March 30 mystery though =[

It's great! You can't really hear the others, but that's no biggie for me seeing as I love Amanda Palmer and Jason Webley anyway Very Happy

I absolutely love love love this album. Evelyn Evelyn are just so much fun - they have Amanda's talent for irony in the songs, but more circus-like and tells more of a story. Wonderful.
