Killjoys Fic Idea

I'm working on a Killjoyverse fic, with this basic plot summary:
In 2015, the government, now corrupt, realized the power the airwaves had to influence people. They then set out on a mission to clear them, taking control of all radio stations and eliminating all other contenders. In other words, killing all musicians. Some went into hiding, others fled. My Chemical Romance was one of the few that did neither, fighting back with secret concerts, pirated radio shows, and gunfights with the government's agents. In the four years that followed, they gained and lost allies, took on aliases, changed their looks, and formed a small, ragtag team opposing new, systematic life. They watched as people lost their right to listen, government stations now being broadcast straight to their brains, and saw the way life transformed into large "cities" or broadcasting and frequency propaganda, with everything outside the limits a radioactive wasteland. And then they found an ally: Dr. Death Defying, the DJ of a secret radio station pumping out new, fresh music for the masses, those who refused to give in, to listen to. He "sponsored" them, playing them daily. Their new goal? To not go down without a fight.
Would anyone be interested in reading this? I have no idea if it's any good or not. It'll have Frank/Gerard and Pete/Mikey, character death, general music references and characters from all genres, and I've been using GirlAutomatic for all the details to make it as "canon" as I can. So should I write it? It'll probably be EPICALLY long, so I don't write to want something people aren't interested in. Thanks for any feedback!
