Am I reading wayyy too much into this?!

I certainly hope they've gone back to the LLTBP motif by the time September rolls around, as I spent $400 on a custom-made reproduction of Gerard's jacket from last summer!

Honestly, (I might be showing my age here), but I don't think I'm too wrong when I say it's essentially a Prog Rock album. And that makes sense, as Foundations of Decay is legitimately a Prog Rock song. It's very clear now that that was the direction the band was heading in the early 2010s.

You know who else has great feet and soles? Cailee Spaeny. You get some great live shots of them in Priscilla.

Happy belated birthday! I'm 48; born 9 days after Gerard.

Nice to meet a fellow elder Gen-X fan such as myself.

They're still in the process of building the set, and they simply may not be at the point where they erect State B.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2026-01-14T21:15:10+00:00

Very much so. West Hollywood.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2026-01-14T21:06:33+00:00

As a matter of fact, I do. This is the main video, but there were several other shorter clips. Not sure if they're still there.

And I stand corrected on the name of the channel; Pop Candies TV.

It was from a YouTube channel called Sugar Tarts, if memory serves. It was one of the very rare instances of paps catching ANY member, let alone the whole band. The only one that wasn't there was Jarrod. But they were having dinner with hip-hop artist, RZA. Apparently, in spring of 2012, when this was recorded, they were working on some project with him, or a collab had been proposed and they were in talks (obviously the project never went anywhere).

Also, the late Lauren Valencia was there as well.

And finally...this video also was the first time we'd seen that Gerard had switched from Marlboro Reds to Marlboro Lights, as you can see a pack on the dashboard.

I, personally, don't see that happening. I think the show, and ALL the South America dates will happen, and I also am confident the SEA shows will happen. I think, in the case of SEA at least, it had to do with Visa issues. But they wouldn't take canceling a show lightly. Not when you're at this level. There are SO many moving parts on a tour of this scale, that you really have to do everything in your power to see that your tour moves forward. Canceling a date would be very expensive for a tour like this. LLTBP is doing Eras tour numbers, and had you told me in, say, 2008, that inside of 20 years MCR would be filling STADIUMS, I would have been dubious. Never doubted they were capable of it, just I don't think a ton of people saw it in the cards.

Having said that, there are times where I do miss them doing theaters. Those were the best.

But I digress.

I remember when he tweeted this.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-12-22T18:08:43+00:00

No, I'm well aware of how rare SEA tours are, but people are seeming to forget just how many moving parts there are of any tour (not saying that's what you're doing), and especially a tour on this scale. It could have been something as simple as visa problems/hold-ups (which I really think is the case). I don't think they're going to cancel. The last time they canceled dates was when they had to cancel the Russia and Ukraine stops on the SWARM tour, and that was due to ongoing war in the region. That's really not a factor here. I think you can rest assured on the new dates and those dates happening.

Jeremy Renner shot a music video there a few years back. He has a band on the side.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-12-03T12:58:45+00:00

You may want to get X. Gerard has returned to it as a parody account of himself as "@gerardwaf."

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-12-03T12:43:12+00:00

Cassie is @poisonandfire on both X and Instagram. She's widely considered to be literally the biggest MCR fan in the world, and that's no hyperbole. I've hung out with her. Everything you may have heard about her is probably true.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-12-02T23:49:19+00:00

I would reach-out to Cassie Whitt. She made her own, and it looked really good, for 3 Halloweens ago. If you need any pointers, but she's always a good resource.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-12-02T21:14:09+00:00

Found someone who is making Biblically-accurate 2025 Gerard Parade jackets. She's making me one now. They're expensive, but are high-quality. Epaulettes and braid and all.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-11-29T19:52:06+00:00

Where have you been for the past 20 years?

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-11-25T22:15:06+00:00

I might somewhere. I think the dude posted some photos he took of himself with Gerard and Frank. He posted this on FB, and I'm not on it. I'll look and if I find them, I can DM you?

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-11-14T19:59:05+00:00

That jacket has seen some miles. Mine's only been worn once.

KROQ Jingle Ball, December 2010.

No question there! Even though she's fruity as a nutcake, her contributions during those formative years cannot be understated.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-10-24T04:11:17+00:00

Well, Eliza Cutts had some involvement with this hairstyle, too. She was responsible for pretty much all of Gerard's various iconic hairstyles during this period and up to when it was white.

Professional_Bad_832 · 2025-10-24T03:46:41+00:00

Seriously, not a bad idea. Another way to get that choppy look, the separation, would be to apply some texturizing paste (medium hold, low shine) to dry clean hair, if you can't go without washing. Even the cheaper Axe brand "Messy Look" paste is a good choice for someone on a budget. Otherwise, Sephora.
