When MCR filmed The Black Parade Is Dead!

To start bidding, click here.

What we here gather from this is that Courtney Love wanted Billy Corgan to perform at Frances' 16th bday party.

Apparently he won't, so she goes on a tirade about how he should.  She mentions that Gerard Way was asked to and he said yes.  And apparently he asked (im guessing here) Frank to postpone he and Jamia's Honeymoon to do so.

Yeah ok... on to the running of the mouth that is Courtney Love...

------------------

Courtney Love is pissed at Billy Corgan and she's letting the whole world know about it!There is some drama about her daughter Frances Bean Cobain's sweet sixteen birthday party.

Writes Courtney:

"corgan
im at work and too tired to find you or geta number you havent sent me out of whatever misguided shame thing your going through thats a private comnversation however YOU DO NOT MAKE CHILDREN CRY.
GEARRD WAY WHO WOULD DO IT IN FIVE SECONDS AND HAS EVEN ASKED AND BEGGED EVEN FOR HIS BANDMATE TO NOT HAVE HIS HONEY MOON THAT TIME MADE SURE TO PROMISE TO BE THERE A SWEET SIXTEEN IS A BIG EVENT I THINK SHE L;OOKED UPON YOU AS FAMILY , I KNOW SHE DID AS TRUSTWORTHY AND WISE AND YOU CANT LAY THAT BIG MAN SHIT ON A CHIDL OF 9 AND OF FORTY -MY CHLILD SOBBING DUE TO YOU IS UNACCEPTABLE, I HATE STATIBNG THIS ON SOME RANDOM PUBLIC FORUM BUT THE LINE IS THE KID MAN, THE LINE IS THE KID, AND SHE DOESNT GET TO SHED TEARS OVER YOU, HER FAMILY ALREADY HAS DONE THAT DO FROPM NOW ON AND TRUST ME SHE WONT EVER CALL YOU AGAIN, YOU CAN SPEAK TO ME IF SPEAKMING TO MY FAMILY AND ILL PASS IT ON. WICH WONT HAPPEN EITHER DUE TO THIS ABSURD SHAME YOUR HAVING I WAS AND WONT EVER SAY ANYTHING OF NEGETAIVE CONTENT PUBLIICALLY ABOUT YOU - BUT YOU MAKE MY 14 YEAR OLD CHILD SOB ON PURPOSE, THATS ENOUGH OF YOU,.
YOUYR THE LAST MAN ON THE ISLAND YET YOU DOBNT UNDERSTAND HOW COME THEYRE ALL SO ALIENATING.
HUBRIS MY DEAR HUBRIS ON A LEVEL IVE NEVER KNOWN THE FRENZY OF RENOWN YOU MISS SO TERRIBLY JUST ADMIT IT ACCEPT IT AND LET IT GO IN THEMEANTIME DONT MAKE MY KID OR ANYONES KID CRY AGAIN I THINK MY CHEM ARE DOI NG IT ANYWAY FRANCES BEANS SWEET SISXTEENS IS BLOODY IMPORTANT TO HER AND TO ME.
COURT"

Can anyone translate that for us????

Update: Thanks to Kylie for decoding!

Here's a version in English of what Courtney said.

"Corgan,

I'm at work and am too tired to find you or get a number that you still have not sent me. Out of whatever misguided shame thing you're going through (that is a private conversation), you do not make children cry.

Gearrd Way, who would do it in five seconds and has even asked and begged for his bandmate to cancel out on the honeymoon of his (coinciding with the sweet sixteen.. so he can do it), made sure to promise to be there. A sweet sixteen is a big event and I think she looked upon you as family. I know she did, as a trustworthy and wise (child), and you can't lay your shit on a child of 9, and you as a man of 40 - my child sobbing, due to you, is unacceptable. I hate stating this on some random public forum, but the line is the kid, man- the line is the kid, and she does not get to shed tears over you. Her family has already done that. From now on, and trust me, she will never call you again; you can speak to me and I will pass it on to my family.. which won't happen due to this absurd shame you are having. I was and won't ever say anything of negative content publicly about you- but you made my 14 year old child sob on purpose. That is enough of you.

You're the last man on the island, yet you don't understand why they are all so alienating. Hubris, my dear Hubris, on a level I've never known, the frenzy of reknown, you miss so terribly. Just admit it, accept it, and let it go. In the meantime, don't make my kid or anyone's kid cry again. I think My Chemical Romance is doing it anyway for Frances Beans Sweet Sixteen. It's bloody important to her and to me.
-Court"

CONGRATS to the winner and Runner's Up! (however you say that lol)

A while back we reported about the Buzznet group that had a template of a Black Parade Is Dead mask that you could save and do your own mask.  Well now they are near announcing the winners.

CLICK HERE for the original report we did.

BELOW is the announcement...
Hey everyone! Thank you all so much for participating in The Buzznet Parade is Dead! Especially those of you new users who came over to join in the fun. The contest is now closed, so no more masks may be submitted. Winners will be announced very soon!

Just to let you know, while we originally announced only the top three would receive recognition, due to the number of entries we've expanded that. The best mask as well as FIVE RUNNERS UP will be featured on the front page of BUZZNET, meaning the entire BUZZNET audience will see your work of art.

While the contest is closed, feel free to continue to use the forums to discuss the DVD, MCR, or really anything! I know a few of you tried to connect there before and I think that's awesome, since one of the greatest things about MCR as a band is bringing people together.

And remember, The Black Parade is Dead hits stores today!

(Message sent from The Buzznet Parade is Dead Band Leader)"

We arrived at Warner Bros Records at about 2:30 PM on June 23, 2008. It was me, my mom and sister, and my friend Ashley we'd brought with us - she had already traveled three hours to get to Fresno, where it would then take another three and a half hours to reach our final destination.

Walking up the steps, and my nerves were all over the place. I didn't know what exactly to expect, but I was excited as I could possibly be. We entered the building and were met by about five other people that would be attending the screening sitting on large comfy-looking sofas and chairs. Beneath that was a mass of white fuzzy rugs on top of hardwood flooring. The four of us took seats opposite of the group and waited patiently until we found out more information. That's when I saw Craig Aaronson - yes, THE fucking amazing Craig Aaronson - walk by. I'm pretty sure I was just staring at him, and he gave me a weird look yet a small smile - embarrassing a little.

About four others had joined our party on the opposite side of the room, and at about 3:10, two guys from WBR walked out and said they were gonna call off our names so we could bring up the cans and make sure we weren't trying to sneak our way in.

After that was over, they led us up a flight of stairs into a conference room where a projector screen was set up and about thirty to forty black leather chairs set up around the room, with MASSIVE speakers... surround sound!!

They passed around little posters and window decals while we were waiting for one of the guys to come back and show us the Limited Edition of The Black Parade Is Dead!. He showed us one of the masks (http://c. ilike. com/w/0133/553/0133553442_m. jpg - bottom right corner) yet said he would not be able to tell us who's it was. Sadly. :( He took the box away and then proceeded to begin the dvd. We focused all our attention on that. As he pressed play, the sound slowly grew louder as we watched the band do their warm ups and exercises and before-show rituals.

All of a sudden, you hear the heart monitor beeping and the lights begin to rise as the opening lyrics and strums of guitar are heard. The Black Parade has begun.

The sound of the dvd and speakers made my hair stand on end, gave me goosebumps... I felt as if I was REALLY there. It was an incredible sound I will never forget! The credits roll as Blood is played.

The next portion - the New Jersey show - is definitely my favorite. Its so intimate, so real and raw, it makes you just wish you were there to have witnessed it. The jokes Gerard made and the way he interacts with the crowd definitely shows his charisma, and just why exactly the fans love him the way they do.

Songs from Revenge were played, and obviously The Black Parade, but when someone said to play "Sorrows" he refused and said that that was the reason Bob Bryar brought a weapon to shows - for when people asked to play songs from Bullets. Touchy subject, eh? xD

We all sat there when it was over, stunned by the mind blowing performance that was just shown to us over DVD. Something only I thought you could experience at the show! How wrong I was....

After the intern said it was over, we all got up and they passed out the remaining stack of The Black Parade decals to me and my friend, saying that we could have as many as we wanted.

It was definitely worth the three hours driving down to see this amazing production by My Chemical Romance, and I would never trade it for the world. The band wasn't there, but it felt as if they were... I felt the exact same as I do after I see a live show by them: inspired.
