With the LLTBP tour coming up, there's a pretty big chunk of people who aren't going to be able to enjoy shows or content from the shows because bandom really sucks at accessibility for things such as subtitles and content descriptions.
My goal for this blog is to provide more ways for people to enjoy bandom. Accessibility fucking matters. Often those who are harmed by it can't be the ones to help; those of us who don't struggle should make an effort so that more people can feel welcome and enjoy fandom spaces.
This whole idea stems from @/chaoticbuggybitchboy talking about accessibility in the music/bandom scene, so credits for the idea.
I'm only one person, but I'm hoping this starts something. If anyone has advice on how the improve the quality of my work, or wants to suggest something for me to do, please, send in an ask, tag, or DM me!
if i use your footage and you want credit, let me know :) i usually forget about it until afterwards i’ve posted and lost the link so if that happens and you know whose it is, feel free to tell me!
Also go check out the new addition to the cause, @emos-for-an-accessible-bandom :D
hi, im (semi) currently trying to get into subtitling/captioning and transcriptions (for accessibility) and i wanted to say I'd be happy to help where i can in the above for any concert clips, videos, etc if you'd like. (alongside any other similarly based accessibility pages)
my apologies if I've worded it weirdly, it's 4:30am and I'm not great with words and very nervous (hence the anonymous ask for now but i would be happy to give my user if the offer would be something you'd like)
I think this is wonderful! If you want to ask any questions feel free to DM me, but keep in mind you're always free to do this yourself on your own blog and we'd gladly come to support you! No need to be nervous :)
if it's okay, what did the sign above the stage say? i've tried looking into it myself and can't find anything, sorry. is it just the usual keposhka mcr sign or is it something else?
It’s red Kesposhka text on a grey/black background. When translated to English it reads “Strength through labour. Honour in death.”
I encourage you (and everyone, for that matter) to think critically about how you choose to interpret this, and to tread lightly in your conversations with others and the MCR team, if you choose to have them.
I want to offer my condolences to anyone who has felt uncomfortable due to the sign seen above MCR's stage at their first night of the Wembley shows.
Similarly, I'm sorry to anyone who felt unsafe due to the flashing lights and fireworks at the event.
Regardless of any differences in opinions in the matter, I think it's important that we stand together for members of the MCRmy that feel harmed or unsettled by these words.
Between-songs transcript - Glasgow, Scotland (4 July 2026)
The recordings for Liverpool disappointed me so I took matters into my own hands. Under the cut 🙏
[before disappear]
[Gerard]: Ha! Ha! Ha! Haha! Ha… Glasgow, how are you? It’s lovely to be here tonight with you. We are the 52nd regiment of The Black Parade, we’re very happy to be here. Over here, we have the Draag National Auxiliary Band, a red telephone, some wheat, and the man of the hour, the most handsome man, voted 27 times in Draagred Magazine, and the reason we’re here today, please, put your hands together, and make some noise for His Grand Immortal Dictator. We thank you. My parents thank you. Now, shall we continue?
[before sharpest lives]
[Gerard]: Oh goodie! Oh good. Blood.
[before i dont love you] [elexecution]
[Gerard]: Ladies and gentlemen! When you all came in here today, you received a gift: a sign. One side says yea! Look at all of that yea. One side says nay! Look at all that… nay. So what we’re gonna do here is hold an election. These fine people over up on that podium right there, right between our Grand Immortal Dictator and then another important looking navy-black stand over there, right, we have elections in Draag, and they work really well, so. These are the candidates that decided to run against His Grand Immortal Dictator. What’s their platform? I don’t know. But it’s up to you to decide if we vote them in or if we keep and remain our Grand Immortal Dictator. Keep our dictator, y’know? I’m bending this up. Alright. So. Let’s find out. What do you think? [resets music] [laughs] [stops music] Spice… sp—sp—spice bag. Alright. Now. Who wants to elect these individuals? Give me a yea. I think they want a clean environment, something like that. Right—wow, that’s a lot of votes for them. Okay. Now, um, who wants to keep our Grand Immortal Dictator? Let me see. Yeah, that’s a lot of them. Alright, well, they didn’t win, but there’s a consolation prize, let’s show them what they won. Roll! Ready! Aim! Fire! That was the best election yet, I thought. What’d you guys think? Now get them the fuck out of here. Wave goodbye as they carry them away.
[during mama][dagger verse]
[Gerard]: Hello! How are you? Are you feeling better? Looking quite well? Well, it’s nice to see you. We’re here tonight to share you something… shh.
[introducing Marianne]
[Gerard]: Marianne! Thank you so much for gracing us with your presence tonight, Marianne. We’re sure glad to see you. Are you guys glad to see Marianne? She’s so nice. We’re gonna count her in, ya? We’re gonna practice, and then we’re gonna count her, and she’s gonna sing this part of it, it’s something—it’s something we do. It goes like this, what I’ll do is say, I said one—two—and then you go, one—two—three—four. Let’s, uh, let’s practice. I said one—two. Now, let’s do it for real. But with conviction. Are you ready?
[before disenchanted]
[Projection guy]: Our time has come. The button pressed, and a new act has meaning. A single word repeats across the stars, and then our hearts: greatness. Then comes a time when all must ask, what cost to hide? What loss so great, to scrawl our names in sand? Or chisel them in concrete? Goodnight, my friends. Goodnight to all.
[before famous last words]
[Gerard]: The clock… the clock is ticking. The clock is ticking.
B stage
[before bury me in black]
[Gerard]: We’re My Chemical Romance from New Jersey.
[before nanana]
[Gerard]: Hell yeah. [laughs] Thank you! Fuck yeah! Fuckin’ Scotland, man! Really excited to be back here. We are. We’re really excited. Believe it or not, I don’t know. I don’t know they’d have any reason to doubt it. It’s fucking sick here. Fucking, King Tut’s, Barrowlands, fucking, sick pit in the back of Barrowlands, roped off, puke on the floor. Fantastic! Always a good time here. Oh yeah, I had a special request tonight, on the um—it’s my request, on the set, but, it’s, like, way at the end, so I don’t wanna explain the whole reason for it now. I’ll—I’ll do that later. But, please, make some noise, for one of Mikey Way’s favourite bands, he turned me onto them, this band called Idlewild. And, I have really—just—amazing memories of Mikey Way blasting this in the car and driving around, we’d listen to it together before we even had a band, so. We wanna—it’s a great honour that we got to play with them today, so, Idlewild, thank you so much. Please make some noise for Jarrod Alexander and Jamie Muhoberac. Two guys, been with us a long time. And for the Draag National Auxiliary Band, make some noise for Clarice Jensen, Kayleigh Goldsworthy, and Tucker Rule. We wanna thank our cast. And we wanna thank our crew, even more than usual, we always like to thank them. But they worked really hard today, and this was not easy, so thank you guys so fucking much. I think they’ve been up since 3AM, so, we really, really fucking appreciate them. They’re the best anyway. And there’s two people here, Grant and Kristan Morrison. You know anything about Danger Days, you know Grant. Played—played the pale bad guy, Korse. Bit of a dandy, is how he created him. And, uh, that was a real fucking [indistinct][idk wtf he said] so, to you guys. Cheers. What we we g—oh, wow! That—this worked out so good with what we’re playing next!
[before ghost of you]
[Gerard]: Spooky times, you know? Spooky times! [trilling noises][more trilling noises] you guys love this box. [noisebox noises] we’re gonna play you a song off Revenge. Revenge! Y—you’re gonna wanna light it up. Not light up, light it up. This song is called ‘The Ghost of You’.
[before not okay]
[Gerard]: Alright, what the fuck is a spice bag? We’ve been talking about it all day on stage, even The Black Parade was talking about it. He’s gonna tell me, I think. I can’t—tell you—that—that’s not a real answer. Somebody, uh, somebody on stage during soundcheck, uh, they—they had a theory that it was—that it involved chicken, somehow. Chicken in a bag. Is that right? Those spice bag people they’re w—they’re watching me. The f—the fucking spice bag people are watching me! I don’t know, I don’t know. Maybe one day we’ll find out. Do you think? [to no Scotland no party chant] Is there a song for spice bags that you’re singing? Is that what that song is? So you’re saying it’s—it’s about hot dogs? Seven Nation Army? That’s what it sounds like, right? That’s Seven Nation Army? [laughs] Everybody’s like, yo, just fucking play the song. [laughs] Let’s do it! Woohoo!
[before Ambulance]
[Gerard]: Yo, fuck, that smells good! Whatever that is! Oh, is that—is that what it is? No Scotland No Party? Jay [name] our sound guy passed a note all the way from front of house. To Greg, who found it. So what does that mean? You don’t have Scotland, there’s no fucking party? Hell yeah. Um, so uh, we’re gonna play you guys a song we’ve never played before, and, uh, it’s off Conventional Weapons, and, hold on. My hands are sticky, too, so— okay. Um, yeah, I don’t know—I don’t know which one of the EPs it was off of, but this song—the second one, Frank knows, I think he sequenced them, this song is called ‘Ambulance’.
[before sorrows]
[Gerard]: Thank you guys! That’s pretty cool. Thank you guys! [booping noises] [noisebox noises] Let’s go! This songs off the first record! It’s called ‘Our Lady of Sorrows’.
[before helena]
[Gerard]: Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla! Ra ra ra ra la la la! La la la la la la! La la la la? Ooh…
before Vampires]
[Gerard]: This is the song I requested. I don’t remember where we played, it was small, and, uh, we were in some kind of van with a wooden floor, and, afterwards, there was just some kids asking us to sign stuff, and, uh, I encountered a young man with blond hair, who asked me to sign—still, to this day, the strangest thing I ever signed, which was a fucking wooden stake to kill a vampire with. Looking at it now, not that strange, still pretty cool. The coolest, in fact, so I wanted to end tonight with this one, my favourite My Chemical Romance song.
Between-songs transcript - Liverpool, England (30 June 2026)
We are so back. Apologies for the wait and apologies for all the indistinctness Anfield seems oe be echo capital of the world… so god bless anyone who was there or watched the streams. Tried me best but let me know if i got anything wrong. Under the cut 🙏
A STAGE

[Gerard]: Liverpool! It is so extreme very nice to be here today, thank you for having us! You are looking lovely today, I see some wheat in the audience… we are The 52nd Regiment of The Black Parade! We are supported by the Draag National Auxiliary Band!

What say you? Have some fun? Sure! How about it!
[before sharpest lives]
[Gerard]: Blood! Blood! Blood.
[before i don’t love you] [elexecution]
[Gerard]: Team effort! Alright, merry old fucking England! When you came in today—hold on, hang on, I’m getting water. This song’s really entertaining. It gets better the more you listen to listen to it over and fucking over again. Hold, please. ‘Cause you gotta stay hydrated. You don’t wanna—anyway, when you came in, you got one of these, right? You got one of these? So, one side, says yay! Everybody say yay! The other side says Nay! Alright. You guys have democracy or something like it here, right? We’re gonna try something out right now. See these people over here, with the hoods on and jumpsuits? They may have been [indistinct], they could be from the prison, who knows, it doesn’t say. Apparently they’re really bad people. I’ll take their word for it. So what we are going to decide right now, if they live or if they die! So. If they live, you don’t want them to die, you put the nay up. That’s how this works. Let me see the nays. Impressive! Let me see the yays. Fuck yeah. Alright, then. Let’s do this. Roll, please! Ready! Aim! Fire. That’s some gruesome fucking deaths we got here. That’s it! Get ‘em all off! Get them the fuck outta here. I don’t want what you’re selling. Yay! Didn’t that feel good?
[during mama][dagger part]
[Gerard]: Hello! How are you! How are you! You feeling better? Looking quite well! I’m gonna tell you a story, it’s a short story, trust me, it’s a short story. We were in jail, for something, like, two hundred and forty-seven years, and, after a while, you know, you’re there for a long time, you start to meet people, where I got this little dude, he’s the coolest. He’s the coolest, he gave me extra gruel, when he didn’t want—I don’t think he ate very much, I think he was made outta plastic, whatever[?]. And then he says, hey! I said what—he says hey! I’m bored of playing dice! No more dice for me! I said, what do you wanna do? He said, I want you to lean real close. I said okay. He said, I’m gonna whisper in your ear… something special for you…
[introducing Marianne]
[Gerard]: Marianne! We have Marianne back with us! Sure happy to see you, Marianne! Are you happy to see us? Sure you are. This is Marianne. She’s a wonderful singer. And she sings a part of this song, who was sung by a very big singer a very long time ago, she’s gonna help us tonight. What we’re gonna do today is, we’re gonna count her in. Y’all sing with us, alright? So we can all do it together. Goes like this. I said one. Two. And then you go, one, two, three, four. Let’s try it. Come on. How does that sound? Let’s try it. Now this time for real. Are you ready?
[before disenchanted]
[Projection guy]: Our time has come. The button pressed, and a simple act has meaning. A single word repeats across the stars, and then our hearts. Greatness. Then comes a time when all must ask, what cost to hide? What loss so great, to scrawl our names in sand? Or chisel them in concrete? Goodnight, my friends. Goodnight to all.
B STAGE
[before vampire money]
[Gerard]: Thank you Clarice. Please make some noise for Clarice Jensen. We’re My Chemical Romance from New Jersey. Alright Liverpool, hands up! Up! Up! Up!
[before not okay]
[Gerard]: Frank found me a jersey with my name on it. I’m so psyched about that. Woo! Fuck yeah. Fuck yeah! You wanna keep going? Let’s keep running!
[before heaven help up]
[Gerard]: Fantastic! What a good time, yeah. We had, uh, that insect—it flew by, man. It was so fun. So—so, if you were really fuckin’, blowing up and stuff, which is extra fucking nice, thank you guys, so much. We wanna thank some people, please, make some noise for—they honoured us by playing with us tonight, one of the greatest bands of all time, Echo And The Bunnymen, please, make some fucking noise. We consider ourselves extremely lucky to have played with them, so, thank you, Echo And The Bunnymen. I want you to make some noise for these gentlemen here playing with us a very long time, Jarrod Alexander, Jamie Muhoberac [gerard noise]. The Draag National Auxiliary Band, make some noise for Clarice Jensen, Kayleigh Goldsworthy, and Tucker Rule. They’re amazing. We’ve been all together on this thing since, last year, we’re still having fun. Hey, who’s that? Steve. On the phone, right? On the telephone? We wanna thank the cast of Long Live, we wanna thank our crew, the greatest people. Really blessed. We’re gonna play you a B-side off of Black Parade.
[before summertime]
[Gerard]: Thank you. It’s getting—proper north now. Oh, yeah. It’s real weird. I feel like we’ve been here in the summer before, but, like, man, we’ve been, like, rehearsing this stuff in hotels and like, it’s like, fucking, um, I'm texting Linds, I’m like, yo, it like—looks like the afternoon now. It’s 9:30 at night! It’s so—it’s so fucking— it’s so fucking bright! And, yeah, of course, we’re still like—jet lagged, so we’ll be up, at, like, three, we’re like, oh, it’s dark. And at four, when you finally fall asleep, the fucking sun’s up again. The sun is fucking up again. Whatever. I fucking love it. W—whatever. The UK was the first place to love, love, love, love My Chemical Romance. We played our first big places in the UK, I think technically we got our first bus, which is fucking nuts, man. Wonderful. Thank you guys, so much. We love you guys. [indistinct] wait a sec. Alright. Lights on. This song’s off Danger Days. Make it like a starry sky!
[before save yourself]
[Gerard]: What’s next up? So, uh, Danger Days turns 15? Right? 15? I think so. Pretty awesome. We’re gonna play a song off it right now. We just played a song off it. Whatever. Love this song. This song is called ‘Save Yourself, I’ll Hold Them Back’.
[before cemetery drive]
[Gerard]: Oooh! Oooh. Don’t you worry, my friend. There’s water for everybody. On this boat. This boat has water for everybody. You guys got—you guys got really cool cemeteries here. This is a song off Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge called ‘Cemetery Drive’.
[before nanana]
[Gerard]: You guys look fantastic. Thank you so much. So, um, Danger Days turns 15 this year, is it 15 years? We, um, we’re gonna play a song off it. We’re gonna play a song off it. Oh, we—we did—we—we did play some. Woohoo! That’s—wild. This guy wants to real bad. This is for you. Killjoys, make some fucking noise!
[before venom]
[Gerard]: We don’t need to turn the lights on! Maybe, they, uh—they need help, or something, over there. Somebody’s going to come. Fuck it, the lights aren’t all too bad. Let’s help them out. [indistinct] You get the thumbs up. They’re coming around. So, I was actually gonna say this, um, anyway, um, Liverpool is Frank’s favourite football team. Like, he’s fucking, way into it. [indistinct]. I used to go see the Cosmos from New Jersey. Have you seen the Cosmos? Who saw the Cosmos here? He did. My friend, he’s the only one here who saw the Cosmos. [at frank after the crowd chants] Look at him, look how fucking happy he is, man. Come on. Happiest fucking person in the room. Can we get over there? Can we g—we’re good. Okay. We’re gonna leave the lights on for this next song, though. ‘Cause it’s that kind of song.
[before helena]
[Gerard]: Alright, you can turn the lights off. You’re pretty, like, for real, I could’ve made, like, some stupid, ohh, they’re so ugly, turn ‘em off. ‘Cause it’s not true. You’re fucking pretty. That’s what it is, Frank. On the dead mic, he said, you’re too pretty. Can’t keep looking like that. That’s the way it goes. It’s like that. We have two more for you. Thank you so much. This is an amazing way to start the tour. Really appreciate it. [indistinct] we gonna do the intro to this one? What’re we gonna do? Okay—we’ll do that.
[before kids]
[Gerard]: Man, I see people, like, all different—all different ages, it’s really cool. Some of you older fans are having a really good time too. It makes me really happy, actually. I mean, of course it will. Not—not anybody older than me, but, y’know. Well, maybe a couple. That’s—that’s okay too. That’s totally—I give you permission. Alright, Liverpool, thank you so much. They don’t make ‘em older than me. They don’t. They surely don’t. [laughs] Surely. Let’s do it guys. What do you say? What do you say? This song is called ‘The Kids From Yesterday’. Now, this is definitely a song—that’s a better idea. I was gonna do lights.
Reminder to appropriately tag flashing and eyestrain under your posts and reblogs.
And as always, if you have any requests for me to remove flashing from clips, write text descriptions, or take screenshots of a moment (with added description) for you, just send in an ask! If you’re looking for full-show transcripts, cast your eyes over to the wonderful @omtai !
If your April Fool’s Day post relies on joking at the expense of someone’s’ disability, subculture, ethnicity, trauma, or sense of reality, it probably wasn’t very funny to begin with.
Please, for the billionth time, remember to tag posts with unreality or any other sensitive content it may contain.
I’m never not thinking about that screenshot of the Google trends for “gerard way pronouns” where you can pinpoint the SECOND they stepped onstage in Nashville.
[image description: a google trends graph tracking "interest over time" for the search "gerard way pronouns". the x axis starts in january 2020 and contains some small spikes, but none above 20 hits. then, in august 2022, the graph shoots up to 100 hits before dying back down. /end id]
I couldn’t watch the mcr concert. What ai were they using out of curiosity?
Sorry for not clarifying, it wasn’t MCR!! This blog is very MCR-focused but it’s really meant to apply to bandom culture as a whole.
All the on-screen graphics were AI generated, which if anything makes me appreciate MCR more for paying ACTUAL artists to help make their world come to life.
I was lucky enough to see a gig tonight, and the thing that stood out to me (second only to the insane amount of AI they used, it’s sad but I’m coping) was just how unnecessary the flashing lights were. Like, okay cool I can’t see the band right now. Nice, I’m gonna have a mad headache after this. Like at that point it doesn’t even look cool.
i haven't interacted with mcr related stuff for a good while for a number of reasons but this blog genuinely makes me feel there's still some hope out there. people writing out transcripts, talking about accessibility within bandom spaces and actually caring about others is huge. i can't put into words how massively appreciative i am of everyone involved.
When I started this blog, I honestly expected no one to care. I thought I’d have maybe two people see it, that no one would really notice, and that I would only have motivation to run it for a month or two.
Never have I been more wrong.
I’m so grateful to everyone involved, whether they’re creating content, reblogging it, or even just tagging things correctly.
I’m going to use this response as a way to say thank you to everyone who makes bandom (and the world) a better, more accessible place. It’s brought back a lot of my faith in humanity and it’s something I’ll sure as hell never forget.
Can people please request things so that I know what there's demand for? They can be from any time, not just the current tour, though I'll probably prioritise more recent events.
Just send in an ask with what it is and what you'd like me to do with it.
I've included a script below the cut for anyone who'd prefer to use one, and an example.
Hi! Could you please take [event/link] and [remove flashing / add captions / write alt text / upload photos with descriptions]? Thank you!
E.g. Hi! Could you please take the performance of Hang 'Em High from the show in Chille and remove any flashing from the video? Thank you!
Note: If you request something by name rather than attaching a link (like in the example), please add what city the show is from, and if there are multiple nights where the same thing happens, please specify which you mean!
i have barely posted about mcr since they first announced long live but i'm starting to feel left out. where can i learn the lore of this tour does anybody have like a masterpost
💬 0 🔁 84 ❤️ 185 · MAKING A MASTERLIST OF GOOD SHOW RECORDINGS!!! · I WILL ADD TO THIS AS THE SHOWS HAPPEN!!!
LONG LIVE THE BLACK PARADE:
all of the recordings for the tour so far :)
its a lot to write out tbh, but you should be pretty much good if you watch anyone from both parts of the post. each show is different but its only slightly and the plot stays essentially the same. you can probably find some other master posts and @accessiblebandomproject has at least some of them transcribed if you're sensitive to flashing lights (I haven't checked in on their blog in a hot sec tho)
@omtai does transcripts of the shows, and occasionally when something especially noteworthy happens I'll remove flashing, add captions, or write text descriptions. I'll definitely do some more once I've caught up with shows!
How dearly I missed doing these. Also calling the guy from the projections Narrator cus what I wanted to call him is Big Brother but I feel that’s a little on the nose. The other guy from the projections is Real Boy though because he’s a real boy. Under the cut 🙏
FIRST SET
(Beginning before Over Fields)
[narrator]: Hello my friends, good morning. It is another beautiful day in Draag. A chance, once more, to get things right; and push beyond our best. So, rise with the sun, and take your medication. Here is your schedule for today, and we will start by observing the Draag National Anthem.
(Before sharpest lives)
[Gerard, reading off paper]: Good be here, it’s nice to evening. Good evening, it’s nice to be here.
(Before wttbp)
[Narrator]: The humour to think about learning to be what you hate, and learning to do what you fear, is that someone you’ve been your whole life doing something you’ve always been good at could feel so entirely new. That brutality, so second nature, could feel so alien, so foreign to you; it’s astounding to witness firsthand. So let’s remind you, for a moment, exactly what you are and the thing that you do best. The lesson is, a man knows how to forgive, but a leader knows how to instruct. And since, through pain we learn, let’s be student then be a teacher. Now, [indistinct], use your words and use them to [indistinct].
(Before cancer)
[narrated from Clerk reading a postcard]: Hello from Gubrick. It’s really not that dirty here. You don’t notice the smell after a few days. Sadly, there’s nothing I can do for you. All my love, Dad.
[mama interlude]
[introducing dagger part]
[Gerard]: How are you good people here tonight? All the way from the Catskills, I see. It’s been a long flight for me, I need a drink. You guys are a lively bunch. Oh, you’re laughing already? What’s so funny? Is it my suit? I know, it’s a mess. My suit’s a mess. That’s what happens when your manager books your plane ticket in the garbage hold. That’s what fucking happens, you know what I mean? So anyways, me and the fucking boys—hold on, I need a drink before I tell this story. So anyways, me and the boys wanted to start out tonight with—not jokes, no jokes, just a song, you know what I mean? It’s a real special song. I learned this one from a friend a long time ago. When I met him, the first time, he says to me, ‘I like your shoes.’ And I said, you don’t got any fucking shoes at all! Jokes. Jokes. But he leans over to me, and whispers in my ear, this is what he says…
[introducing Sylvia, or, magic assistant]
[Gerard]: Now how’s about that song? What’d you think about that? Alright, alright, alright, alright, you’re probably asking who she is. This is the part of the show where we do magic. And we’re gonna do a magic trick. Alright? This brave young lady right here, from [somewhere] Michigan, a very far off land, is our assistant. For all things magical spells. And she is gonna let us make her disappear. We’re gonna need your help. It’s just a little one, two, one two three four. But if you’re ready I think we can try it. Oh, by the powers vested in me by His Arcane Majesty, The Great Gazoo!
[during the big sky]
[Narrator]: There is a planet, so it spins, and it’s moving so fast it’s not worried at all. Very busy. People, people hurry. And the child who has the chalk and sand, let me see you. So we see them. We say, let me see who loves you. As the chalk, it moves in circles. Many circles. Great big circles. Hugging arms and smiling eyes. And we deal with the child. Let’s subtract, and again, and what if we subtract them? Who is left to love you? There is only the hands that wipe the chalkboard clean.
[before Sleep]
[Narrator]: I see. All this time, you are making drawings someone else must now erase. But I am glad that we are friends, and that now you understand—this is the worst day of your life, but the first day of yourself.
[before disenchanted]
[narrator]: Hello, my friend. I see you. But no, we’ve never met. They gave to me a picture, and I’ve had it quite some time. In fact, before you said a word I’ve always heard your voice. And you don’t mind? That makes me smile. There is one last seat, and one more ticket. It’s hiding in your coat. Yes, you, you’re here. So take your seat, get comfy, here is my hand.
[before famous last words]
[Real Boy]: A figure sits in a chair made of wood. And it’s sobbing. You think it’s you. You’re pretty sure it’s you. But it’s weak. It’s broken. And it’s covered in gasoline. Now, picture yourself.
SECOND SET
[before nanana]
[Gerard]: We’re My Chemical Romance from New Jersey.
[before planetary go]
[Gerard]: Fuck yeah. No, we’re not stopping yet. We’re gonna say some shit, but now yet. Wanna keep fucking going. [indistinct] How do you feel ‘bout that, Peru? Alright, let’s fucking go.
[before ghost of you]
[Gerard]: Alright, Lima, how the fuck are you! Alright, alright, we’re gonna, uh, play something off Revenge in a minute, but, we wanna, uh, we got some people we wanna thank, so, we have, well, always with us, we have Jarrod Alexander, Jamie Muhoberac, toured with us a very long fucking time, even though this time they’re kinda different characters. But, we have our medical staff, Kayleigh Goldsworthy, Clarice Jensen, who played a song after the first set, and Tucker fucking Rule. And the band that were nice enough to come out with us on this incredible fucking tour, The fucking Hives. I would go to this show. I would even stay for My Chemical Romance. Really honoured that they came out with us. One of the greatest fucking rock bands of all time. Alright. Introductions, out of the way. Let’s make it spooky. Gonna make it spooky! [shushes] [shushes again] [shushes a third time] Light it up, Peru.
[before give em hell kid]
[Gerard]: Thank you so much. Boxspring. Man, that was like, forty-seven, forty-seven little boxes.
[before headfirst for halos]
[Gerard]: Quiero some agua. Hola, ¿qué tal? Failed Spanish three times, but always got the accent really good. Dunno. That’s it, that’s all I got. I failed it a whole bunch of times. Had to go to fucking summer school. Because I’m stupid. I know, I know I’m not stupid. But thank you for your concern. So, Frank put the setlist together, pretty much always does, and, he put this one on here from our first fucking record. We’re really fucking excited to do it. Fuck it, let’s do it. This one’s called ‘Headfirst For Halos’. Get ‘em up, Lima! We did this back in the day. [waving hands] It’s slow. Gotta be like water.
[before boy divison]
[Gerard]: Okay. Oh, was talking about Cheeseburger in Paradise, oh right. So, I keep a list of really excellent murder music. And you know, it’s not like I would—I would play this music to murder people, I don’t ever plan on doing that, but, should, let’s say, you know, I write a film or there’s a TV show, like, there was this scene in, uh, the first episode of Umbrella Academy where Five kills all these people in the, in the, um, donut shop, and I was like, please use ‘Daydream Believer’ by The Monkees. I love them, please use—this is—this is perfect murder music, ‘Istanbul’ is not on my murder music list, but you know what is now? Cheeseburger In fucking Paradise. This is kinda on the list. I think. What do you say we play it? Let’s do it.
[before vampires]
[Gerard]: I didn’t even know scary shit was about to happen, I just said that for fun. But scary shit is about to happen. Trust me, my friend, trust me—trust—trust me, my friends. But anyway, it’s really nice to be here. Alright, Lima, let’s make it spooky. My favourite. My favourite, hand-selected, favourite song.
[before Helena]
[Gerard]: Yeah, let’s do that. Let’s do that. Give it a shot. Alright, Lima. Last chance. We did this intro to this song many years ago, I can’t think of a more perfect place to do it than here. Are you ready?
Everyone go support OP for doing a huge service to the community! They've done these for every show of the tour so far and they're extremely well done.
with all the accessibility stuff for the new mcr tour stuff and since you're big in the fandom i would share how i disabled the flashing since it is often not tagged properly
it's really annoying for stimboards but like worth it for safety
