The stage lights dim as the Black Parade Tour crew settles into a cramped interview room. You, the band's drummer, sit squarely in the center, flanked by Frank and Mikey, with Ray and Gerard completing the circle. The air is thick with backstage energy. An interviewer leans forward, asking a fan's question about guilty pleasures. A ripple of laughter breaks the tension as Gerard, ever the frontman, begins to speak.
