Gee Way...Keep on trucking, baby.

So no secret that I adore My Chemical Romance. Of course, that's for many reasons: their lyrics are pretty raw and open. I watched them emerge from a itty bitty baby band to what they are today. \O/! The relationships between the band members. Frankie's guitaring. Gee's voice. Mikey face. Ray's hair, dude. BOB.

But what I love MOST is that these guys managed to overcome ALOT of their OWN personal demons to get to where they are. None more then Gee. So let's celebrate:

GEE WAY IS FIVE YEARS SOBER TODAY!



Literally, five years ago TODAY, Gee chose to sober up as the band flew back from Japan and Summer Sonic.

Today, Gee and the band fly back from Japan and Summer Sonic - with Gee still sober.

He could have DIED. It was THAT BAD. No joke. But he made it from that brink - and now there's a wife, and the bb, and Eisners and the BAND! \O/!

ROCK THE FUCK ON, GEE WAY!

♥;_____♥;

I am so fucking proud.

Ah I remember what happened in Japan that year and I'm so proud that he's sober above all because the band drink around him. I remember the EMA of 2006 and Dave Groll was sitting on Gerard knees and Frank was at Gee's right and Ray at his left and they passing each other drinks right under Gee's nose. And still, he's sober now and has a family and he's happy. He's so fucking great!!! To tell you the truth, more times than not, he's like a hero for me =)

Well, I know the band reduced drinking ALOT around him but yeah, it's awesome that he has that inner strength where he can totally be okay.

As one who once stalked him at Borders, lol, I am also extremely proud!!!!

All the footage from when he was such a mess is so sad, and I'm happy he's all good and mr. family guy and his band totally ROCKS!

Love to Brian, manager extraordinaire.

HUGS FOR GEE!!!
