Have I mentioned how much I love this video?
They dress like the white stripes, one of their members looks like Angus Young, dead people do ballet and then there’s a bunch of dancing with umbrellas. I swear, the dancing umbrellas thing is actually the bestest part. The umbrellas are black, with red underneath! So stylish. And all this coming from a band called My Chemical Romance. What pomp!
Here’s a great primer. Apparently the lead singer was once stabbed in Kindergarten. Their official website is also a kicker, it’s all about broken hearts and the use of fanciful words. I am officially declaring My Chemical Romance as my favourite rock band of the night. And as long as I’m making wild statements, I’d also like to mention that I think Green Day was the best band to come out of the 90’s.
I’ve been blogging lots of goth stuff these days. I wish I’d been a better goth in high school, I only ever wrote one angsty novel about death and satanism and I never sacrificed anything. Shashi and I dressed up in full goth regalia one day and scared this middle aged woman. It was the highlight of our week.
Side note: Ozzy has done a Beatles cover?

damnit, i changed my comment to say i was exaggerating rather than lying, because i felt that lying was too strong a word, but it posted both.

lol I’m leaving it because otherwise the explanation wouldn’t make any sense.
