My Chemical Romance has ejected their touring drummer, Michael Pedicone, after he was allegedly found stealing from the band late last week. A statement from the MCR site on Friday read: "The relationship between My Chemical Romance and Michael Pedicone is over. He was caught red handed stealing from the band and confessed to police after our show last night in Auburn, Washington. We are heartbroken and sick to our stomachs over this entire situation. The band has no intention of pressing charges or taking this matter any further than we have to. We just want him out of our lives. The people who play in this band are a family, and family should not take advantage of each other like he did. We are currently moving forward, and hope to have a new drummer in place for our show in Salt Lake City, Utah. The show must go on." Dead Country's Jarrod Alexander joined My Chemical Romance for their show at USANA Amphitheater.
