A message from Frank

Hello Friends,

I got some good news and I got some bad news....while in the studio recently, Gerard started having some problems with his voice. At first we weren't too concerned about it and thought it would pass, as these things usually do, but the longer it went on the more worried we all got so he went to see the doctor. The good news is he's getting the best treatment possible and is going to make a full recovery, trust me we couldn't be more relieved. The bad news is it's not gonna go away overnight and we have to do what we hate doing most, cancel shows.

When we started this band all we ever wanted to do was write songs that meant something to us and play them live for as many people as we possibly could, and now in our old age all we want is exactly the same thing... and thats why canceling shows kills us so much, playing for people is what we live for. Your off-time applause, your beautiful dirty faces, your raw energy, and your wretched little voices singing our lyrics back to us fuel our fire, you make us feel alive, and we love every single one of you for that.

So know that as excited as you guys were to see us, we were even more excited to see you. But in order to make sure that we can continue to create music and play it live for all of you for a long time to come we need to give G the time he needs to heal.

We are incredibly sorry for bumming anyone out by canceling, and we hope you find it in your hearts to understand. We promise we will be back in Australia to make it up to you guys/gals as soon as possible. We miss you.

Until we meet again, xofrank

And Frank has taken a serious and sad situation and added some humor to it, reminding us why we all love the band in the first place. Nothing wrong with finding his humor and laughing. It'll all be okay.

Fuck that bums me out I was completely looking forward to seeing the pictures and such but the blog post was a wonderful read and made it a tiny bit better. ;__________________;

This message from Frank certainly isn't, so I'm not sure why I shouldn't laugh at it.

dammit, frank, i don't want to like you but you make it difficult when you say stuff like this. ♥

You're absolutely right. Laughing in the face of disappointment is good for us!

OH NO! But what if it's bad for Gerard? It might strain his vocal cords. NO LAUGHING FOR GERARD! Frank should have known better than to be funny in his blog. What if he makes Gerard laugh and it breaks his voice permanently?!?!?!

Frank is trying to destroy the band!

This ends today's installment of Melodrama-a-go-go. Please tune in again tomorrow

And now I feel better about the news. Go Frank [and heal thoroughly and quickly, Gerard!].

This is possibly the most eloquent I've seen Frank in writing.

Well, yeah. That is pretty much my constant state of being.

Don't let Twitter fool you. He's pretty well spoken when he wants to be.
