突然なのですが、本日をもちましてこちらのブログの更新を

MCRを中心に更新していたこのブログですが、彼らに
関する情報が少なくなってきつつあり、また心機一転
新しい内容のブログにしたいとの思いがあり、
終了させていただくことにしました。
ご了承くださいm(__)m

フレリクの際に送ったメッセージに
「日本に来てくださいね〜!」と書いていたので。
Dear Mark, thanks for the message.
Thank you for the comment on my page!
I cannot believe you wrote me back :)
The first album (アルバム名),
to me, it seemed like black and white
toned record. Will the second album
follow the steps of the first one?
表題ではmessageなのに本文ではcomment。
ちょっとボケですが、問題なしです(笑)
これは私的ポイントなんですが、相手に返信を
願いたいので最後は疑問形で。
返信キター。
RE: Dear Mark, thanks for the message.

Gerard(G):The feeling that I got, growing up in that area.
Did you kind of had these kind of moments where you're in a
environment, even in high school anywhere else, we
realize why I am completely built differently than every
single person I'm around. From kids bulling other kids,
I watch kids bully other kids, it was about force, aggression
and dominance. And I was like, " Why am I not like that?
Why am I not prompt the conflict, like all these other
kids I'm around? Why am I not prompt the violence?
Why am I not prompt to act out? What is violence like?
Why do I realize, it's so wrong? And why does it make me
noxious? Why I wanna create things, instead of destroy them? "
All around me was kids just wanted other kids just destroy
something. If some kid got a new bike, another kid take
it and destroy it. I've never understood that.
The same thing, that's interesting. We play something
like a Reading Festival and I'd get hit with a golf ball
or a bottle of piss and I would be like, " Wow, why
am I not be like that guy? " (laugh) You know.
What makes me different? Why do I just create something really
special basically give it to the world? And the other people
are just so... They just hate them self so much that they
want to act out in aggression against something, you know.
Something I stand for just really. That's the kind of response
this band's suppose to get. It was a wake up call in the
regard that we had had for the response for a long time.
When the band had started, we had get physical threats,
you know.
Because it was flamboyant and it was unapologetic. That's this
band is. So, it has been a long time, a lot of award shows later,
and a lot of magazine interviews later where it was like " Wow,
I forgot what I felt like to be the outcast. To represent every
kid in the crowd that didn't really fit in at all."
この部分のインタビュアーの言っている言葉がわからないんですが、
ジェラルドの言葉から推測すると、「では、どのようにモチベーション
を保っているの?」ではないかと。。
It was exaggerating and extremely challenging.
There is nothing like that to humble you more or let
you know that there is still something to fight for or
the world wants what it wants.
You can't change the world. You can't fight the world.
The world is always going to win based off what it wants.
But it also makes you to realize that sometimes,
minority out there are that's extremely aggressive.
When in fact playing for the majority which is A. really
enjoying what you're doing and B. very peaceful people so.
Gerard(G): I was there. I was in Hoboken. It was right across.
Interviewer(I): Were you living in Hoboken?
(G): No. I was living at my parents'. But I was taking the commuter
train in. I didn't see any of the plain hit. I saw the
buildings go down, though.
(I): You did? From where?
(G): From, I say, fairly close. I mean, the train runs from Hoboken
runs to the World Trade Center. So there is two trains one
runs to on 33rd, one runs to the World Trade Center so, it's right
there is a straight shot from Hoboken terminal. I mean, so
close to the river. You are right in front of those buildings.
It was like being in a science fiction film, you know. Like a
some kind of like a disaster film. It was exactly that kind of
feeling you didn't believe it. Felt like you're in the Independent
Day or something. Made no sense. You really couldn't process it.
And for me, it was a little different. I'm kind of very empathetic
and I'm kind of con to it emotionally and stuff. So I pick up
a lot of the stuff that way. There was three hundred or four
hundred people around me. I was right to the edge. A lot of
people are maybe a little too scared to get to the edge to
the rallying. All of these people behind me, they all had
friends and families in those buildings, I didn't.
So, when that first buildings went, it was like a A-bomb
went off, just this emotion. It made you noxious.
I was more upset for the people around me than for myself.
I think one of the first thoughts went in my head was
"What does this mean?" "What does this mean for the world?"
"How does this gonna change everything?" Yeah, that was pretty
crazy, it was like total fiction. You couldn't believe what's
happening.
(I): What were they doing up there?
(G):They were sending people back home on trains for free.
They were basically shuttling people out. And I ended up
walking home that day. I got off the train and walked home.
My mom was really excited to see that I'm still alive and
I was also able to get to home so quickly. The train ride
back was also interesting. Because you were surrounded by
people like were businessman and people were just different
age, different class than me. They were like entrepreneurs
or something. And they were just talking about, I heard
people calling just like, talking having families now,
getting married and all these things. Then talking about
opposite of that. You'd see different opinions, like
guys next to you saying how he doesn't wanna raise a
kid in a world like this. And another guy saying that
he wants to get married and start his own family now, stop
running around. So, that was pretty interesting. I've become
a total people watcher. I was observing a lot that day.
(0分19秒〜0分45秒)
Mikey: And I brought it to the diner, right after the convention.
And put it on the table.
Frank: What did you do with it? What did you do with it?
Mikey: I gave it to Alicia's brother.
Frank: That was a really funny story you wanna...Hahaha!!
Mikey: It's a scary story.
Interviewer: How much does it cost?
Mikey: Thirty bucks.
「クモを買って、レストランに持ってってテーブルに乗っけてた。」
「それをどうしたの?」というフランク。「アリシアの兄にあげた」
「っていうか、それが言ってた面白い話なのかよ〜(笑)」とフランク。
「怖い話なんだけど(笑)」とマイキー。「それはいくらだったの?」
「30ドルだよ」
そして、ホラーとかのファンなの?という話から、ファンといえば
Comic Booksも好き、プロレスも好きという話になり、インタビュアーも
「俺も大好き」ということになり、しばらくプロレスの話で
盛り上がる。
(1分54秒〜2分10秒)
Mikey: I actively go to conventions to meet 80's wrestlers.
Interviewer: Oh,really? Who are you into?
Mikey: Dude, I met Roddy Piper. Nicholai Volkoff, big time.
He big time me. I went, " Hey, what's up, man? I'm like a huge
fan. He didn't even look at me. And he half shook my hand.
「俺は80年代に活躍したレスラー達が集まる大会(集会)に行って
レスラーに会うんだ」マイキー。
「誰のファンなの?」「Roddy Piperに会ったよ。Nicholai Volkoff
もね。Nicholai Volkoffは感じ悪かったよ。俺が『調子はどう?
あなたのの大ファンです』って声をかけたのに、こっちを見ようとも
しなかった。握手も中途半端だったし。」
(2分34秒〜2分48秒)
Mikey: What happened is, there is this steroid. Boom.
So now, mysteriously wrestlers are dying in their sleep
in hotel room of heart failure. I don't know...
I don't think its connected.
「何が起こってるって、ステロイドがあるよね。
最近、謎なことにレスラー達がホテルで寝てる間に心不全で
亡くなってるよね。わかんないけど、、、
ステロイドとそれって関係ないと思うよ」みんな、笑。
(2分50秒〜3分50秒あたり)
ニュージャージーの地元のレスラーの話題でしばし盛り上がる。
(4分00秒〜4分13秒あたり)
インタビュアーは、ハッスルマニアに出ていたThe Rock(プロレスラー)
の後方で、インタビュアー名前のボードをもっていたファンが
テレビに映ったのを見て「カッコいいことしてくれるね!」と
思ったそう。
(4分13秒〜4分20秒あたり)
「何か今までに凄いなって印象に残っていることってある?」
(4分20秒〜6分45秒あたり)
Frank: Yeah. Jeez. We get to experience so many amazing things.
Growing up, we never thought we would never get to do, different
people get to meet or (?)
You know the little things like meeting the people you look up to
for years, they're in bands or just people that are in the industry
you look at but don't know what to say and they come up to you
and say " Hey, I really like your record, this and that." And
you get to almost call these people " Friends." You meet them
so much. And there is also, I mean, it's the most amazing thing is,
you write your songs in your basement and little by little after
maybe a year they see the light on the record, you play them live
in the country you never thought you could even go to or even
be able to spell the name of, and you go there and these kids
are don't really speak English singing along with you and after the
show, they come up to you and tell you that " The song meant
a lot to me." That blows your mind. That's something I never
thought I would get to experience. Those aren't little things.
Those are the biggest things, ever. That would ever happened to us.
That's the kind of stuff that really blows your mind.
フランクは「俺達はいろいろなすばらしい経験をしているよ。
絶対そんなことはありえないと思ったことを経験したり、いろいろな
人たちに会ったり。例えば、何年も憧れている存在のバンドの人たち
や業界に居る人たちなど、絶対に会えるはずがないと思っている人たちが
近づいてきてくれて『君達のレコード気に入ってるよ』って言って
くれたりする。そして、そんな中で何度も会ううち彼らのことを
『友人』と呼べるようになることもある。
もう一つは、これは一番すごいなって思うことなんだけど、
地下室で曲を書いて、それが少し後、一年後くらいにレコードになる
んだけど、その曲を生涯行くことができないと思ってた国とか、
名前の綴り方さえわからなかったような国でライブで演奏して、
その国の英語を話さないキッズ達が一緒に歌ってくれて、ライブの
後に会いに来て『あの曲は自分にとって意味のある曲です』なんて
言ってくれる。それってすごく心を動かされるね。
そんなことを経験できるなんて思いもしなかった。ぜんぜん小さなこと
じゃなく、自分達にとってかけがいのないものだよ。
Mikey: Mine's are little shallow. So, you guys are familiar
with comic books, right? Alright, the Green Goblin made My
Chemical Romance reference in a marble comic.
Frank: NO!
Mikey: So anyway, the Green Goblin runs this team. They are villains
but there are good guys... Anyway, somebody was complaining and
Norman Osborne who is the Green Goblin ...He goes " Oh, is this
where you suppose to break into the chorus of I'm not OK?"
The Green Goblin! Drop a song reference!? It blew my mind!
I threw the comic across the room.
Interviewer: You didn't know until you read...?
Mikey: NO! I read comic books 'cause I'm a dork! I started
calling everybody. I called John (Cavella?).
Frank: You didn't call me.
Mikey: Oh, I forgot.
フランクの素敵なコメントのあと、言い辛そうに
「俺のは浅いことなんだけど(笑)」とマイキー。
「みんなコミックのことを知ってるんだよね?いい?
Green Goblinがマーブル・コミックのなかでMy Chemical Romance
のことについて触れたんだ!」
「Green Goblinはチームをもっていて悪人なんだけど、その中にも
良いヤツはいて、、誰かが不平を言うんだけど、そしたらGreen Goblin
が『この場面をI'm not OKの曲に入れるとこなのか!?』ってね。
Green Goblinが、だよ!俺達の曲のことを言うなんて!
びっくりした!!コミックを放り投げたよ。」
「それを読むまでしらなかったの(インタビュアー)」
「知らなかったよ。俺、バカだからマンガ読むんだ(笑)
みんなに電話したもんね。ジョンにも(マイキー)」
「電話こなかったんだけど・・?(フランク)」
「あ、忘れてた!!(マイキー)」
(1分00秒〜1分40秒)
Guilty pleasure songs on MCR set?
Mikey: ABBA. Mamma Mia.
MCRのセットで演奏したいものってある?「ABBA. Mamma Mia.」
「ジェラルドが確実に踊ってくれるよ」とマイキー。
MCR play Song 2 by Blur.
Frank: I play one note.
ステージでBlurのSong twoを演奏するけど、自分の音は一音がずっと
続くんだ(笑)
(2分00秒〜2分27秒)
Taste of Tab.
Frank: It taste like... If you took a sweet n' low, didn't
open the bag and lick the outside of the bag. That's what they
taste like.
Mikey:It's a carbonated sweet n' low.
「Tabの味は、、sweet n' lowの封を開けないで袋の外側を
なめたような味」(フランク)
バックステージにTab(炭酸飲料)が用意されていたらしいんですが、
ガンになる可能性がある成分が含まれているということで、
撤去されたそう。不味いらしい。
(3分25秒〜3分45秒)
These people look more like than you do!?
Frank: There is a lot of that. Sometimes the fans are really
get psyched about one period of time.
Mikey: Xs on the eyes!!
ライブに来る人たちの中で、「ある一時期」が特に気に入ってる人たち
がいるそうで、「目の上にXを描いてるんだよね!」(マイキー)
それってヘレナのころの時期ですよね。ライフジャケットとか着けてる。
(4分18秒〜4分34秒)
「今は自分達がそういう格好をしてないので、その時期の格好を
してライブを見に来ているファンは今の姿を見て怒ったりしないかな?
と思わないでもないんだけど、、。でも今は今の格好をしたいしネ」
(フランク)
(4分47秒〜5分00秒)
Mikey: This is what happens. Kids take things and run with them.
Like, you're probably like, " Man, you know, it's too hot here
today." And that turn into "I hate Australia."
「つまりね、ファンのキッズ達は自分達で物事を解釈しちゃうんだ(笑)」
例えば、俺が「今日ここ暑すぎるね」といったとすると、それが
「オーストラリアが嫌い」ってことになっちゃったりする(笑)
(5分05秒〜5分44秒)
Frank hates one thing in Australia.
Frank: The other night, I swear to God, we were coming out
from the venue after practicing.
And got into this van, and there was a spider, the size of that TV.
It was ridiculous. Yeah, is that 36 inches? And it was full color,
plasma screen spider.
Interviewer: OK. Have you guys been having any sort of pipely drugs
that night?
Frank: NO.NO.NO. I swear to God, it was huge. You were there.
一つだけオーストラリアで嫌いなものがあるというフランク。
「ある晩、現場で練習を終えてバンに乗ったら、あそこにある
TVくらいのクモがいたんだ。すごかったよ。どのくらいって、
36インチくらいじゃない?フルカラーでプラズマスクリーンの
クモだったよ(笑)」
「実はその晩、何かパイプ状のドラッグとかやってたんじゃないの〜?」
とインタビュアー。「やってないよ!!神に誓って、
本当にデカイクモだったんだ。お前もその場に居たじゃん
(と、マイキーに)」
