My Chemical Romance Rare Footage Live Club Krome Sayreville NJ 2003

theartofstoryte...
This video was shot in 2003 at Club Krome in Sayreville NJ at a halloween show. At the time we were working on a DVD that was going to be titled Jughandle as most of the DVD was shot in New Jersey. Fran Mark, the drummer and singer for From Autumn to Ashes was our hookup and got us in contact with all of the bands. Unfortunately the footage sat for the last 13 years. As we worked on our graffiti projects, this DVD took back burner and never came out.

You have no idea how important is this recording for the fandom and there's only one reason for that: demolition lovers. I've been their fan for the past six years and they never played that song live and they didn't do it before either, or at least there's no video of it. I'm really grateful with you for sharing this video with us, it really means a lot to me. Thank you so much.

I now see the difference between arena rock and music written for those small seedy venues we all love. Vampires Will Never Hurt You was MADE for headbanging at small venues, its so good in that context. people always talk about how bands "sellout" but I think it's just an evolution of time and space. Because where you play the music is just as important as what you play. if the band grows so do your ideas, you end up writing in the context of the venue. I also really wish I could just straight up teleport to this moment in time and experience MCR the way they started out.

That interview at the end of the video is really interesting to watch new as of now knowing the whole outcome of MCR...crazy to think mcr was gonna make three cheers the same way as Bullets...I kinda in a small way wish we got to hear the raw version of Three cheers like Bullets. I'm sure if they stayed doing it that way, they would have done of Thursday did, continue the same level venues but still making awesome kick ass creative albums but not branching out as much as they would have if they went with a more mainstream label...I would have been fine with MCR staying more independent an low key than mainstream...makes you wonder what they would have done for their third album that we know is The Black Parade...
