Gerard and Lindsey to have baby

I'm sure this is old news to you Gerard-philes out there, but he and Lindsey are expecting their first child in early spring. I'll forgo all the jokes about being born with eyeliner on because that was really outdone with Pete and Ashlee, wasn't it? Who by the way, have completely ruined that child's life with a middle name like Mowgli.

Anyway, congratulations to Gerard and his lady. Shame-free wishes you luck as you dive headfirst into parenthood.

But a bundle of joy isn't the only think Gerard might be giving birth too next year - The Umbrella Academy has been options to be made into a movie.

Rock Sound posted on their blog about Innerpartysystem but didn't really say anything about the music - they did however say, "We suggest more bands start doing this. If the record’s crap then we can just eat them." I don't know how to take that.

Live Nation Employs Ordained Minister...Lyn Z becomes a Way

So....Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance married Lyn Z of Mindless Self Indulgence last night. If you remember we posted some fun pictures a few weeks ago of them getting their smooch on beside a tour bus. Well kiddoes apparently they think they're in it for the long haul and they've gotten married.
In news equally as important, considering Gerard has based the past, like, 2 years of his life and countless interviews around the fact that he's sober - he's holding a wine bottle. I don't want to get on the "jump to conclusions" mat here - perhaps he's holding for someone...that worked for me the last time I got caught with a joint. Just kidding kids - say no to drugs.

Good for them - I hope they're happy. They sure are cute. :)

p.s. somebody needs to crop that ol' big-faced girl out of the picture.

Well, well, well

So...I guess Gerard really isn't engaged anymore and if he is, he won't be for long. SCANDAL!!!! hahaha

#1 Just a friendly embrace

#2 Wait for it....wait for it....

#3 *thousands of little hearts break everywhere*

That would be Lyn Z from Mindless Self Indulgence.

Projekt Revolution lineup and dates confirmed

Let me just say that I knew about this a month ago and was sworn to secrecy under the condition that I would get to release it when all the major news pages got to. Imagine my surprise when I saw it all over Blabbermouth. Sucks for me huh?

Anywho - the bands playing should make this the must-see show for Shame-free readers of the summer. The only thing that would have made this more 'Shame-free' would have been if A7X was playing. A girl can dream... ;)

Main Stage:

Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Placebo, HIM, Julian-K.

Revolution Stage:

Saosin, Styles of Beyond, Mindless Self Indulgence, The Bled, Madina Lake
