Bands and Online Games!

It's more popular than one might think for bands to use video games to grab the attention of fans. For instance, there is the now legendary Emo Game which features bands such as The Starting Line, Cursive, Alkaline Trio, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, and Hot Water Music which was created by starvingeyes, the same guys who brought you the more modern Fall Out Boy Trail. Those of you who are like me and have been into My Chemical Romance for a while probably also remember the Helena and Sweet Revenge games that used to be a feature of My Chemical Romance.com. Through the various layout changes of the website, the games were lost as a feature, but can still be played for the sake of nostalgia here: Sweet Revenge game AND Helena Game. Now, Taking Back Sunday have added a brand new addition to the band-game frontier- check it out:



I'm soooo terrible at the snow level, but it's cool. Just gets me more hyped for the show on Friday!


Have fun!

They were soooo sweet! Ha-ha! The Helena game was really easy, but I always had a tough time beating Sweet Revenge.

My Chemical Romance Mystery Twitter Accounts

Image
Shortly after the cryptic change of My Chemical Romance's website, a strange Twitter account called "Dr. Death Defying" appeared. It was followed by only NewsAGoGo and a friend of the band when it reached out mysteriously to one fan, who tipped everyone off. It was later followed (then subsequently unfollowed) by both Ray Toro and Frank Iero. Things got weird. Here's how it's going down so far... September 3, 2010 Dr. Death Defying : Look alive sunshine. Shits all fucked up in the zones. Dr. Death Defying : Words are gasoline, motorbabies Dr. Death Defying : @thankthevenom Look alive... Dr. Death Defying : @thesnackfairy There are more pills produced in Battery City than grains of sand in Zone 4. -- NewsAGoGo : complete blackout. generators on stand-by. noise outside. screaming. static. sounds like...like, robots dying... -- Dr. Death Defying : @thatkkbitch Answer: Popping nitros near Wolfblood Beach will break more than your heart, it'll ...

Dear Bob Bryar: In Honor of Dixie

"I don't even know what happened to my best friend and miss her more than anything in the world," Bryar tells PEOPLE. "The devastation I feel is beyond words." Source: People[dot]com According to People[dot]com, My Chemical Romance drummer Bob Bryar recently received a devastating shock when, a week after sending his German Shepard mix companion to a trainer, he received her cremated remains without a clear explanation for the dog's death. The drummer is filing a lawsuit against the trainer, who has changed the story of Dixie's death multiple times and who acted without Bryar's permission to cremate her. My Chemical Romance fans are well-aware of how much Dixie meant to Bob, and some of us even became personally attached after his blog series and frequent twitter updates in which he shared stories of their drive across the country together to get home. Bob rescued Dixie from a Southern shelter, inspiring her well-fitting name and, from what we have s...
