The Band
My Chemical Romance was formed in 2001 by front-man Gerard Way. Gerard decided to start the band after seeing the World Trade Center towers fall on September 11, 2001. He said, “What am I doing with my life?” Thus, My Chemical Romance was formed.
The band consists of Gerard Way (lead vocals), Mikey Way (bass), Ray Toro (lead guitar), Frank Iero (rhythm guitar), and Bob Bryar (drums). MCR (as they commonly referred to as well as My Chem) started as just a little band from New Jersey playing clubs to a very successful band with multi-platinum records and millions of copies sold worldwide!
The staff and users at So Long And Goodnight are different from many MCR fansites out there. A lot of us are from New Jersey so we have a special connection with My Chem that you won’t find anywhere else.
