The audience at This Good Robot’s NYC headliner last week got a special treat — former My Chemical Romance guitarist Frank Iero jumped on the show unannounced for his first gig with his new band, Frank Iero and the Cellabration.

Tune in for The Gunz Show tonight at 9pm ET, with Frank Iero (ex-My Chemical Romance), and Driver Friendly. Only on idobi Radio!
