Support the Cellabration
When you go to one of Frank’s shows, please take the following things into consideration:
1) KNOW THE MUSIC! Don’t go to a show just because Frank was a part of MCR!! Listen to his album, learn the words, love the music, and be enthused for what he is doing NOW! And for the love of all that is right in the world, DO NOT ask him to sing/play any MCR songs! Look up the other bands on your ticket too and take time to listen to some of their work.
2) Show your support for the whole band. Frank may have started Stomachaches as a solo project, but it has evolved into something more. Learn the names of the other guys! Evan, Matt, Rob, and Ed put just as much blood, sweat, and tears into touring as Frank does! These guys are Frank’s family; his brothers! Go ahead, scream for Frank, but scream for the other guys too!
3) Show some life and enjoy the moment and the LIVE MUSIC!! If it’s your first show, or your hundredth, live in the moment. A few pics/video is fine, but don’t watch the entire show through your phone! Put it down and absorb the atmosphere and unique life and feel of a live music show! Jump around, sing along, get to know your neighbor! You didn’t pay for a ticket to get a selfie with Frank, you paid to see a bunch of great guys perform some quality music. Experience it!!
4) BE RESPECTFUL and have some class/dignity. Don’t be a bully and knock other people around or push them out of your way in a bid to get closer to the stage. AND DON’T grab shit off the stage, especially before a show! You want a set list? Wait until the set is over to get it and keep your butt off the stage! Want a pick? Don’t break equipment and trample people while you’re trying to grab them off mic stands! Be patient, wait your turn, and don’t act like a fool!
5) Don’t stalk the bands bus!! If you want to wait to see if Frank is signing that night, don’t stand outside the bus waiting for him. Give him some space. Let him come down a bit from the show. Let him breathe. If he’s doing a signing, he’ll come back into the venue where you can wait your turn for his autograph and pic. If you want to wait outside for him, do it at a respectful distance. Don’t run at him or scream at him or grab at him or touch him in any way. It’s creepy and rude! If he DOES NOT come back in and you have a letter or something to give him, 9 times out of 10 one of the other guys will agree to take it to him. Again, be respectful and ask nicely, and while you are at it, compliment them on the show and ask for their autograph or something!
6) Understand that the band sometimes has a very tight schedule for when they have to be out of a venue and/or on the road to the next. There just may not be time to talk to every fan or take every gift or pose for every picture. They do their own set ups and break downs and pack their own trailer. They are working, so keep that in mind when you approach them. It’s ok to ask for their time, but AGAIN, be respectful! That will get you much farther with them than butting in and being rude will. Guaranteed.
7) Last, but not least, HAVE A GOOD TIME!! No matter your age, Frank and all the rest of the bands you will see that night will be amazing. Make sure your memories are not clouded by an addiction to technology and social media. Be there, be consciously aware of your environment, and enjoy the music!

Saw frnkiero andthe cellabration at the masquerade today!! I got to meet him afterwards too, and he signed my wallet. He was soooo sweet!! I told him “hey I know this is kinda cliche and you probably get this a lot, but you helped save my life,” and he smiled at me and shook my hand and said “I’m glad you got the courage you needed” I almost pissed myself I was so excited lol
Got this at the concert tonight, Frank is so great :)
I SAW THE MOST ADORABLE MAN TONIGHT
