Hailing from Chicago, Bob joined My Chemical
Romance in 2004. Frank Iero, guitarist in My Chemical Romance,
is quoted as saying "Bob and Toro (guitar, MCR) are
the two hardest working people I've ever met, and if there
is a God, I thank him everyday for bringing us Bob."
Prior to joing MCR, Bob attended
university in Gainesville, Florida and spent time at Disney
World working as a drummer. He credits his time spent in
the scholastic symphonic and jazz bands as major influences
in his drumming style. My Chemical Romance was formed in
2001, and the band's name from a book entitled "Ecstasy:
Three Tales of Chemical Romance", by Irvine Welsh. The
band cite their main influences as Queen, Thursday, Iron
Maiden, The Misfits, and The Smiths, while Bob cites Dave
Weckl as a major influence, as well.
