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 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

MCR is seriously an amazing band who shouldn't be blammed for any of this crap. Just as the band is labled 'Emo' does not mean its a 'suicide cult' in which the ****ing media ( who personally should get a life instead of ruining others) have said it was. MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE IS L♥VE END OF !!
