It looks like you should just use a SELECT query with joins

"SELECT * FROM users as u JOIN gangs as g on u.gang = g.name WHERE g.name = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['name'])."'";

if you are trying to build an array of result rows, this:

$members = $row['name'];

Should be:

$members[] = $row['name'];

You should also declare your $memberes variable before the loop like

$members = array();
