My Chemical Romance Fans 'Planning London March'

My Chemical Romance fans are understood to be planning a march across central London over the portrayal of emo music in the media.

The march, planned for May 31st, is expected to begin in Hyde Park and end at the offices of the Daily Mail newspaper.

The newspaper was of a number of publications to report on the death of teenager Hannah Bond, who was found hanging in her bedroom.

An inquest into the 13-year-old’s death heard that Bond had lived a double life and was a devout following of emo music.

The coroner in the inquest, Roger Sykes, said that he found elements of the emo movement “very disturbing”.

It's not clear how many fans are expected to feature on the march or whetehr it has been endorsed by the band.

i really want to join them but i live in Hawaii. i seriously don’t think that the band would have ’endorsed’ this, the fans would want to do it themselves. its just a way to show your support, my chemical romance doesnt deserve this kind of treatment. if i could march, i would. and even though i know that i can’t, i am going to try find a way, even if that means swimming all the way to london

Fuckin Media and Shit Think They Know Everything They ONly Put There Opinion in the bloody NewspaperTHEY NEVER ASK THE FANS WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT MCR AND OTHER BANDS THAT GET ACCUSED OF BEING ”EMO”. READ THE HANNAH BOND MESSAGE FROM MCR http://www.mychemicalromance.com/news#node_439 IT SAYS As a band, we have always made it one of our missions through our actions to provide comfort, support, and solace to our fans.

I love mcr & i’ve been listen to ther music for 2 years but no1 has the right to blame mcr for Hannahs death , yes its sad but its not cool to pretend to be depressed & lonely its sad & creepy. But mcrs music is gr8 & no1 should blame them for Hannahs death because the band is labled ’emo’ other bands get clessed as ’emo’. also the media never ask fans they make shit up & they never no anything bout the band or the music its just ’emo
