The Nest

destroya - my chemical romance

Ooh, good question. I thought this obscure interview where Gerard talked about the meaning behind the bad luck beads was really interesting. I also love this picture of Steve Montano on the set of the video shoot. I have no idea where it came from, I’ve only been able to trace it back to a fan site (which probably wasn’t the original source.)

Also, I feel like a lot of people don’t know about the inspiration room that we’ve only gotten a couple of brief glimpses of. The band's photoshoot with "INROCK" magazine had pictures of concept art and models that we've never seen before or since.

And then there’s all the weird obscure photos of MCR in Japan...still have no idea where most of these came from. I found most of them on a Japanese fan blog, but I’m not sure if that’s the original source or not.

Phone Transmission

When the transmitter on MCR’s website was still active, if you hit the flashing numbers in a certain way, it would reveal the code “017602783136.” What most of us didn’t realize was that it wasn’t just a string of numbers–it was also a phone number. If you called the number “1 760 278 3136,” you’d hear a muffled transmission. Some of the words are hard to make out, but the word “Draculoid” is quite clear. One fan realized that the recording contained Morse code, and translated it to the following:

…  ….  .  ..  …  …  ._  .._.  .  ._  ._  ._

S H E I S S A F E A A A or maybe

SHE IS SAFE AAA

Another fan pointed out that “AAA” means “stop.” I don’t know how long this recording had been active, but it essentially told us the fate of the girl after the “SING” video.

At the time of writing this, you can actually still call the number and hear the transmission yourself. Or you can simply listen to the recording above!
