If I had access to a cloning machine

There must be
more than 200 MCR fans in London?
I think you could muster that number in Wrexham!
it started early
raz says there's LOADS more there now
I'm glad more turned out
The Daily Mail seems to see its mission as killing off everything that may change our country in the slightest, anything 'out of the ordinary' kids shouldn't get into - unless of course it's some sort of revival of the Hitler Youth, then they're more than welcome to get stuck in
Good on them, seriously
It's this kind of shit which lead to that girl getting killed so horrifically. I don't like MCR, but I can see why people would, and for anyone to run that charge up against a band is morally wrong. But we all knew the vault of morals at The Daily Mail has long been completely empty.

It's easy to poke fun at them, but fair play to them standing up/sitting down defending something they deeply care about. Passion is good.
Husband saves lives?
Gerard Wax?
Surely

Really good they reacted against that..Those cliche prejudices against subcultures spread by mass media are sickening.
Honestly...

If I was caught in that get-up, I'd consider ending it all too.
I
also just noticed the 'Free hugs' sign that girl's holding.
Just about sums up why most people here are music snobs, then...
