LeatherMouth Lives

Hello friends!

Hope you all had a nice holiday and a safe New Year. 2007 is dead and gone, so here's to a regret free 2008.  Some new developments are as follows:

Please let us all welcome  NEW TOMORROW  to the S//C family. They are an amazing band from California and I'm sure they are going to have a bright future. So check them out and show them your love.

A huge thanks to all of you that already set up street teams and also to everyone who took the time to tune in to the David Costa NJ recording session. I gotta say that kid has flow. He continues to get better and better. It blows my mind.

A huge thanks and much respect to all the artists and writers that submitted for our virtual gallery...You are all very talented, also congrat's to all the winners as well.

We also have found a new writer that will be showcasing in the next few weeks. So keep your eyes out for F.T. WILLZ.

Update 2:

We have a new division of S//C we are creating called The K.G.B.. The K.G.B. is open to all and consists of young people taking it upon themselves to make this world a better place. I promise you 1 person can make a difference...but millions can start a revolution. The K.G.B. will take up homework assignments for the greater good. Now I know you guys are probably real busy with school starting again and I'm sure all your blogs need attending too but if you have any free time. Here are your homework assignments:

#1 If you're 18 and live in the United States. Educate yourself on the issues at hand and register to vote! You can do this online at  www.rockthevote.com. It's real easy, fill out the form online and print it out to sign and mail. If you're not 18. Find out about the issues and discuss them with your parents and friends. Express your opinion to them and make sure they vote. This is our world and we do have a say.

#2 We have new designs in the works and they will be out soon. However, if you can't wait or already have all the S//C gear you want. Then please go to  www.aspca.com.  If you pledge around $19.00 they will send you some awesome gear and a photo of an animal you have saved.

#3 Read Gandhi's autobiography. "My experiments with truth".  I promise its a really interesting read and his teachings will touch your heart.

...and last but not least!

#4 Do a selfless deed... Help someone who truly needs your help without expecting anything in return. It could be as simple as buying a homeless person a sandwich or volunteer your time at a soup kitchen or a children's hospital. Every little bit counts.

More homework assignments will be passed out later. Take care of each other and believe in yourselves. It sounds cliche' but you are the future. Take initiative and try to make this world  a better place. Until next time, keep the faith friends.

And to be more interesting...I wish you all a
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Love always,

 Hello friends

Goddamn it’s been awhile... Ok, so lots to say I guess. First things first,
sorry we've been away so long. There was a lot going on, legal troubles w/ s//c
and moving, family stuff and personal crisis, some bands breaking up and
some bands keeping productive, and a feeling that s//c was being heaped
into the lot of bullshit band dudes' t-shirt companies. I honestly have no
desire to be a part of that, and I know neither do you. Good news is that
leaving you all to your own devices has given me faith in the youth of
today and made me realize that I should never give a fuck what other
people say. If you don’t understand the crew than you never were a part of
it, and you really cant believe everything you read...I want to thank you
all for keeping s//c what it always was supposed to be, a gang, a
lifestyle, a community of kids who do it themselves...regardless of what
other people say or think of them. you all kept it down when even I forgot
why we do this. I’m sorry, it wont happen again. In fact we've decided to
do it even better this time, there are new things on the horizon friends,
things that will benefit the cause and make the "others" hate us even more
than they already do.

2nd order of bizzness.... please welcome our new friend Eddie to the s//c
family, he's handsome and awesome and his pit bull looks just like
mine.... his official job title is "gettin shit done" and also " kicking
franks ass so he does what needs to get done". I think its a match made in
jersey. Hmmm

Ok 3rd we are now restocking some choice items in the s//c store. They should be available shortly. If you want em go get em, Soon you will be able to spray paint your own favorite stuff, we will be providing downloadable stencils for just that shortly.

4th Letha-MOUTH! Is currently finishing recording this month and filming a
short (buckets O' blood) film to go along with the full-length...also there
is talk of a vinyl recording coming out previous to the full-length. Sounds
preeeetty cool hopefully this all goes according to plan.....man oh man how
do I get the inside Leathermouth scoop? I have no idea..

5th we are discussing having a virtual gallery for all you artists out
there.... I feel bad we cannot use your ideas or drawings for the clothing
due to legal reasons however i do think that so many of you are very
talented so I would like to develop a spot on our site where you can
submit your art and have it viewed by everyone who wants to see up and
coming artists...sound good? And

6th I would like to honor the forward thinking young adults who took it
upon themselves to start s//c , Leathermouth & David Costa street teams. Some of the teams even harassed Disney world patrons....gotta love that shit. Thank
you, thank you, thank you... you, my friends, are my new favorite people,
honestly without kids like you this would never survive, keep up the good
work. Thank you all for keeping me from putting a bullet in s//c's head. I
look forward to our future together. Believe in yourselves, and thank you
for believing in this. Forever indebted

XoXo
Frank + s//c

I slept in today, and then I rushed around to get ready for a CMW conference that the record label I work for was a part of. I was tempted afterwards by drinks and food so, stayed at the hotel later than I probably should have. By the time my friend showed up to drive me to the Taste of Chaos show in Mississauga, I was half in the bag.

We got stuck in traffic for far too long. I kept calling Matt (who was patiently waiting with the other press at the venue) and saying, "Dude. We're so close. Seriously. We'll be there soon." Over an hour later, we pulled up at the venue. Since the label was also setting up a merch booth I dove out of the car, asked a parking attendant where the loading dock was and directed my friend towards it as I ran straight at the press area. I charged in the room, sweating, out of breath, still half drunk. So, I sit down and watch Gerard and Frank from My Chemical Romance take hauls of their American cigarettes just outside the window. I am salivating at the sight, having craved a cigarette for the entire excruciatingly long drive here. They eventually begin making their way inside. I'm sweating and nervous. This is my first interview and I have been listening to their new record, "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge" repeatedly for the last two weeks. (Partially because I am too lazy to change the CD in the morning, in my often hung-over stupor, and partially because I dig the songs.)

So, the boys walk in and they look like normal dudes. Little to no makeup, jeans, t-shirts, hoodies. I calm a little as we shake hands and introduce ourselves. I try to explain the thesis of truth.explosion as they nod in agreement.

Truth.Explosion: Hey guys. Thanks for sitting down with us. Now that you understand what truth.explosion is about, what experience do you want to share?

My Chemical Romance: Well, we did a CMJ show in New York for our old label, Eyeball Records. And it just so happens that Keith Morris, who used to sing in Black Flag and Circle Jerks, was there. So, he came to the show and he came up to... I think it was you...

TE: He just walked up to you, randomly?

MCR: Well, we had heard that he was there. So onstage I think I kinda called him out. I was like, "I heard somebody from Black Flag was here tonight, this one's for you!" and, you know, that was a really good show and I remember I hurt my neck real bad, it was destroyed. and, (later) he walks up and we all immediately stand up and (Keith's) all like, "No, no, sit down." and we're like, "No, no dude." and he's like, "I'm Keith" and we're all just like, "Holy shit!" so, that was our first meeting and we hung out a little bit that night...

TE: Were you weirded out at all? Like, sitting there with a man who had so much to do with the music you grew up listening to?

MCR: It was so bad, I couldn't even talk to him, I was just like, "Uhhhh..."

TE: So, then what happened? Did you see him again?

MCR: Well, then we went to LA to make our record and one night we're at a convenience store buying cigarettes and Keith happened to be there.

TE: Another encounter...

MCR: Yeah, I was actually there with my girlfriend at the time and we were getting gas. I go in to pay and there's this little dude with long dreads and he's buying like, peanuts or something and he's going out the door, and I corner him and I was just like, "oh... uhh.. Keith!" and he's like, "uhh... what?" I was just like, "Dude, I really hope you remember me. I'm Frank, I'm in this band, My Chemical Romance, we're out here recording." and the only thing I remember getting out of my mouth was, "Would you please sing on our record?" and he was like, "Sure, look me up in the phone book."

TE: The phone book? That's weird...

MCR: I know, I felt like a creepy band guy.

TE: Oh you're not?

MCR: At the time, I don't even think he remembered meeting us. He was kind of in diabetic shock or something...

TE: Haha. Diabetic shock? Are you serious?

MCR: He was like, " I gotta go eat... so... " and, I was like, "Whoa, well, can I get your number?" and he was like, "I'm in the phone book." and I told him, "I don't have a phone book, so just write it down." so, he writes it down, I basically forced him to do it. And I call him the next week, and I'm like, "We're recording at this studio on 57th, it's not that far from where you live, um, you should come out and do some stuff." and he's like, alright fine. We set it up, he showed up. And, I remember lunch was coming soon and I was like, "Yo, whatever you wanna eat..." So we're sitting there and he orders one of everything on the menu. Every kind of Chinese food. That's what he wanted. He just wanted Chinese food. And we're like, "Alright..."

So we sat down, I was in the vocal booth with him, and I wrote down some stuff we wanted him to do, and he would do it, and I would just be sitting there with my eyes wide open and he would be like, "Yeah? Or no? Do you want me to do it again?" and I would just be like, "Oh, yeah, that's fine." I didn't want to be like, oh, no, do that again or whatever. So, finally we get into the swim of things I started being like, "Oh, yeah, do that again, do this more like this." and I couldn't believe I was like, coaching Keith Morris...

TE: So who was actually in control?

MCR: Well, I was in the control room and, literally, they had me pressing the buttons, like the call-back button and stuff. And it was like this huge deal. I mean, I don't even think they knew who he was. And we're like, freaking out, and they couldn't understand why we were freaking out. I'm hitting callback, like, "Uh...you might want to try that again Keith... sir."

TE: That's insane. I can't even imagine what that must have felt like.

MCR: (Laughing) Then he starts telling jokes.

TE: Tell me you recorded them?

MCR: Yeah, we started recording, and it was just fucking incredible.

TE: Did any of the jokes end up anywhere?

MCR: During one song he just told a story about him and his dad at a truck stop and that's actually in the song; underlying.

TE: I will listen for that.

MCR: So, then we just sat down and the Chinese food came. And, honestly, there was a table like the size of this room just full of Chinese food. And he's a small guy, he just opens all the containers, and says, "Everybody dig in."

TE: Just a complete dude...

MCR: He was just a dude. Like, a little dude. And he's eating little bits and then told us about his movie he's writing and so many great stories and it felt like we just learned so much for probably an hour. And that, that probably was one of the best experiences the band had. For the band, like as far as vans blowing up and shit, that doesn't happen as often. We are very lucky like that.

TE: Are you still touring in a van? Haven't you moved up in the world yet?

MCR: The last van we had died finally so now we're on a bus. And that's great but we still don't have any fucking room for some reason.

TE: Is it one of those hot buses with bunks and shit?

MCR: It has bunks but we have so many people now with us, and it's a family. It's not like, crew, it's just family members.

TE: I know exactly what you mean. The label I work for is the same sort of deal. We prefer to think of it as a family, not just a business.

MCR: I know that any new crew we hire, if they don't fit into the family, then it just doesn't work out. But, everybody we got now feels like family.

TE: What is the truth behind My Chemical Romance?

MCR: There are many truths behind My Chemical Romance. I think truth is the biggest aspect of My Chemical Romance. The truth behind it is its five, very normal or simple individuals that want to change the world by what they say in the songs, off stage, during, between songs, by how they perform.

TE: Anything else?

MCR: Oh, flattery. The truth is we like flattery and chocolate cake.

on Tuesday 26th June I went to Brussels at Stubru [a Belgian radio] to participate at a contest to win a meet&greet with My Chemical Romance at the Belgian festival Rock Werchter...
There were 2 groups: mine [with Florence, Savannah and Hong Wan] and the one of Gaël [with Mette, Carolien and Dorien]

we both had to sing WTTBP live on the radio during 1 minute
Johannes [singer from The Van Jets] had to choose the winner...he chose my group for some reason...I was so happy! I couldn't believe it! I really was the most happiest girl on earth but I felt very guilty that the other group didn't win cuz they were much better!...
even if they didn't win...congrats  to them! and it sucks that they weren't able to come with us to meet mychem!...

 

Thursday 28th June: meet n greet!!!

normally the m&g was at 5:30pm but then Savannah told me it was at 5pm...so at 4:40pm Florence and I went to the place were we had the wait...after waiting 15min. I decided to ask someone from the crew if it was here were we had to be for the m&g...he said 'no' and he sent us somewhere else - Florence and I ran for our lives! lol cuz we were scared that we would be too late!...
anyways, when we arrived at that other place some ppl from the crew told us that we were wrong again and they also sent us somewhere else
we ran again and when we arrived at that other place a guy from the crew didn't know about the m&g...he went backstage to ask some ppl about it and we were able to go with him...while waiting backstage i was talking with an other guy from the crew and he said that he already saw mychem...i was like: aww they are sweet aren't they - he smiled and he didn't said anything else, he was probly thinking, god! thats a weird girl lmao

finally the guy from Stubru came to us!...we had to wait on the festivalsite
i was walking back and forth like I never did before cuz i was to nervous!...finally a woman came and she told us that the m&g will be at 6pm
thank god cuz Savannah and Hong Wan were a bit late!...

well then Florence and I decided to see Billy Talent but they just went offstage :( and I really wanted to see them :(
but ok...when we went back at the backstage place a woman came and she put a mcrbackstagesticker thingy on our clothes - then i also saw there were also 3 other ppl who won a meet n greet with mcr

we went backstage to a little place who was very enjoyable! :) we had to sit, a photographer took pics of us, an interviewer did an interview with those 3 other ppl and then also with me and a woman was waiting outside so she could warn us when mcr was arriving...

"they are there" the woman said and i felt like dying!...Frankie came in, then Gee and Ray and Bob was outside [he was smoking] we shaked hands and then bob came in...
he was standing there with a cute smile on his face - I made 1 step and then I was standing in front of Bobo, I waved at him and I said 'hi' - he made a very cute smile, he said 'hi' back, he said 'sorry' [cuz he was a bit later] and we shaked hands

then someone from the crew said we could ask them for autographs...I began with Gerard, cuz he was standing next to me...he looked so down, he didn't smile exepted for the pics, I tried to make him smile while saying sth when he wrote an other name but it didn't work...then of course I went to Frankie who was at a table signing stuff and you have to know that he is even more beautiful in real life then on pics!!! I sound like a groupie but it's not my fault! he just is the most beautiful man ever! lol - I tried to stay as long as possible with Frank :) I gave him some stuff among other things a petition and batman sunnies I bought in Germany
when he saw the petition he asked me what it was...I said it was a petition
he: for what *cute smile*
me: for you to come to Belgium *smile*

and about my batman sunnies...he smiled, he said thank you and he wore them the whole time! :) I asked him if I could make pics of him, he said 'yeah sure', he posed twice for my camera...the 1st time with a smile and the 2nd time with a silly face! xD and guess what!!! that fucking camera didn't work!!!!! I could take 2 other pics of him though [i'll post them asap]

we made some group pics, then Gerard went outside, Frankie was shaking hands with everyone to say bye and I didn't know where I had to stand so idk why but i was standing in the back of him till he went outside...I tapped him twice on his shoulder, he turned, he made the cutest smile ever, he said bye and went outside

when I turned I saw Bob and Ray signing some stuff at a table, I went to them cuz I still didn't had their autographs...
I saw the things I gave to Frank on the table and I asked Ray if he could give it to Frankie, of course he said yes and then Frank just came in again cuz he saw he forgot the things I gave him lol

unfortunately they was no time to ask them questions or to make pics with them alone :( but I'm already very happy I met them! I just wish it could last longer then 5min...

06/28/2007 was the most awesome day ever!!

thank you for reading and sorry that I typed a lot of uninteresting things down, I just thought I had let you know everything in details lol

me [I was fucking nervous!], Florence, Savannah
and Hong Wan waiting for Mcr

Florence, Savannah and Hong Wan

 

Thank you guys! :)
xo

ps.: I'm still mad at my camera!...it sucks that i couldn't take more pics!

 

oh! and one more thing...when my friends asked me how it was i told them about Gerard being different then normal and i said maybe it was because he's not engaged anymore...everyone was laughing with me but now i see i was right...[i still have to read about it though]
i hope he'll be ok soon

from http://frank-iero.net/

Straight from the horses mouth, Frank reports to a fan he is ill again. After
the Muse show at Wembley Stadium, he said that doctors gave him an IV
drip/shot so he would be well enough to play, which he did do. More info as
it becomes avaliable.

hope he gets better soon!
xo

Hello my lovelies :)

hope you are all doing good...
it's been a pretty long time i didn't posted pics or anything...it's because it's very busy at school and all :(...
i even still couldn't see the new pics and vids!!! O_o [only Teenagers! who's awesome!! :D]
that's also because of my computer...he's going so slowly! normally tomorrow he will be normal again ;)

I'm sorry that [sometimes] it takes me such a long time before I reply your notes, messages and friend requests...I'm doing my best...I'll try to reply asap! :)

and now some mcrmy news:

i became co-owner of MCRmy Belgium! :D
yeah! there's finally a MCRmy in Belgium!

www.myspace.com/mcrmy_belgium

britt [or xbrittx on buzznet] also started a mcrmy in the Netherlands! :D

Frankie is awesome! xD
love him sooo much - i sound like a dork! O_o

xo

i was reading some stuff in a french chemical forum and someone typed few anecdotes of the MCR gig in Paris on 04/04 [where i was]

Frankie has spit in the crowd and during few sec. he played on the ground!! Gee touched Frankie's ummm...package!

i didnt saw that! O_o

next time i go to a chemical show i'll push everyone to be on the 1st row! i'll do everything for it! i cant believe i missed those awesome things!

 

 

i told you that i would tell you some things about my citytrip in Paris and about my 1st MCR concert...well here i go:

i went to paris from 04/03 till 05/03 - the 1st day i saw the moulin rouge and lots of other things. i even went to the Hard Rock Cafe who is holy!! there you can see the guitar from Angus Young [AC/DC] and his green costume, a guitar from lenny kravitz, a piece of drum from Queen, glasses from Elton John etc. - i couldnt belive my eyes when i was there!
if you ever have the chance to go to Paris you really have to visit the Hard Rock Cafe! :)

the 2nd was my fave day - my chem concert xD and the 1st one! i was so exited and nervous at the same time
i arrived at the concert hall around 2o'clock i guess - i was there alone, i mean without any of my friends but i could stay with Brigitte from tasteit and a friend of her Gaël - thanx girl! hope we can meet again :)
i still had to buy my ticket from Marie [mychemloverr] - thanx a lot for it hun!! xD - she was at the signing session, so we decided to go there so she could give me the ticket...there were pretty much ppl waiting for the autographs so after she gave me the ticket we went back to the hall
i hope to meet them another day - frankie wasnt at the signing session...

6:30 finally!! the doors opened and the security guy was pretty mad cuz everyone was pushing lol
funeral for a friend played...it was great - i prefer them live then on cd and the guitarist is hilarious! xD
during 20min was the crew preparing everything for my chem and then...
they came on stage! woaaah!! i couldnt believe it was real, it was like a dream!...Gee reconized lots of UK fans and he said thanx to them for supporting them [with mcrmy UK] :) you cant know how much i wished i was english!

on the beginning i was on the 3rd row in front of ray  - i'd to stand on my toes to see frankie! [yeah, we are both pretty small] then i got pushed in the middle where i finally could see him :) so much energy as always...
there was a moment i was just standing there, not moving, and smiling at frankie, hes such a genius
he was headbanging and moving so much i thought he wouldnt see me...i was still looking at him and i was like the only one with my hand in the air & suddenly he letted go his guitar while Gee was signing sth with 'kiss' i dont remember which song it was & frankie did such a kissmove when he was looking at ME!! O_o omg! i couldnt believe it! it made me so happy :)))

Gee did the chicken dance like he did in the UK [in Brighton i think?] he did also a rly sexy move ^____^

they played like 1:15 - it was too short :( and at the end of the show i turned my head and i saw someone who looked rly muck like mikey: he had the same hair, the same nose and even the same skin O_o it was pretty funny, i tried to dont laugh xP
then the crew also threw a lot of things for my chem i couldnt get anything, even if i was pushing everyone :(
the only thing i could get was that: http://dirtyhandkerchief.buzznet.com/user/photos/?id=4787796

:)

[it was awesome that there were a lot of fans with different nationalities: french, belgian, english, italian, portugese etc.]

now im trying to convince my parents to let me go to Amsterdam to see them - i think they wouldnt let me go but i would do evrything for it!!

and the last day of paris was amazing too
Paris is beautiful - its one of the most beautiful cities in the world if one day you have the chance to visit it, GO!! its awesome there

 

thanx for reading this crap :)

and dont forget to listen to the interview from tasteittv with gerard huh :)

When the Used’s most recent album, In Love and Death, hit stores in September 2004, Fall Out Boy were just a bunch of kids from Chicago, My Chemical Romance were in their “Gerard-is-chubby” phase and Panic! at the Disco were still a Blink-182 cover band.

Needless to say, things have changed.

Now, as the Used gear up for the release of their still-untitled third album (due in early 2007), they find themselves no longer at the forefront of the emo/Warped/MySpace/whatever punk revolution. Which is perfectly fine with them.

“I don’t really understand the scene today,” bassist Jeph Howard laughed. “I mean, I love My Chem — we used to tour with them all the time, so I’m stoked for them and I’m really excited to hear their new album. But I don’t think any of us are really into a lot of those other bands. In all respect to them, I personally don’t like their music.

“I mean, we were doing pretty good for a while there,” he continued, considering his band’s impact on the scene. “We were on the radio a lot more than our friends’ bands, and that sucks that some of them didn’t get as big as they should have. So you never can tell what’s going to happen. And, really, I don’t have any idea about how our new record will do. But if we don’t sell as many copies, that’s OK with me.”

Expectations were perhaps absurdly high when the Used launched In Love and Death. After all, it came on the heels of the breakout success of their self-titled debut, which sold more than 770,000 copies and established the group of four Orem, Utah, punks as an act to be reckoned with. And while Death sold roughly the same amount — and included the hit “Take It Away” — many within the industry viewed it as a disappointment.

So when the Used reconvened in Los Angeles in June to begin work on the new album with producer John Feldmann, who helmed their last two discs, they did so as decided underdogs — a position which, according to Howard, freed them up to make the album they’ve always wanted to make. And the results — somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 songs, with names like “Earthquakes” and “Slit Your Own Throat” — were certifiably, well, “rocking.”

“It’s really difficult to describe the new songs, but they’re really rocking, and we’re so in love with them. You’ll definitely know that it’s a rock record,” Howard said. “Quinn [Allman’s] guitar licks are insane and so brilliant. And the vocals are the most incredible that Bert [McCracken] has ever done. It’s like everything he’s ever sung, except, like turned to 11. Everyone who loves his voice is going to love it even more, and, well, everyone who hates it is probably going to hate it even more.”

Of course, this wouldn’t be an article about the Used if it failed to address both their many detractors and the copious amount of drama that seems to buzz around them like a swarm of hornets. While the hating is usually constant — Internet rumors that McCracken has died of a drug overdose pop up monthly — lately, things have been percolating in the drama department, thanks largely to former drummer Branden Steineckert, who the band parted ways with just last month.

The split was, shall we say, a bit less than amicable, and seemingly stirred up a new round of Internet hateration. But the remaining members of the Used have resolved to ignore it all, naming a new replacement for Steineckert — Dan Whitesides, formerly of Salt Lake City’s the New Transit Direction — and working hard to wrap up the sessions for their new album by the end of October.

“There’s been a bunch of drama happening with us, so we decided just to put our heads down and power through this album. And it’s the best thing we’ve ever done,” Howard said. “If people hate it, fine. We’re still doing what we love. As long as we’re happy, that’s all that matters.”

	NEW ALBUM The single is followed on 23rd October, by the band's third album 'The Black Parade'.

Death comes for him in the form of a Black Parade because his strongest childhood memory is of his father taking him to see a parade as a boy. The parade leads him to his final judgement. An examination of mortality'.
