Important question: how does the band My Chemical Romance relate to TB?

As I'm sure you're aware, the band is named after an Irvine Welsh book: Ecstacy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance.

The second novella in that book, "Fortune's Always Hiding," is about a person named Samantha who lives with disfigurement as a result of thalidomide, a drug that has been used to treat everything from leprosy to cancer. Thalidomide can cause severe, even fatal birth defects.

Leprosy and tuberculosis are caused by closely related bacteria, and thalidomide is also sometimes used in the treatment of TB--especially when TB has invaded the brain and is causing brain swelling.

So MCR got their name from a book that discusses a drug that is sometimes used to treat tuberculosis.
