My Chemical Romance

This was the best day of my life. I've been a fan of My Chemical Romance for about 4 years and i've been waiting to attend one of their concerts for forever, and on this day I actually got to go and see my idols live. We got there 2/3 hours early, and it was actually not a boring wait! We got to hear them practice, and there were trucks giving out free Snapple and Monster energy drinks which was really cool. Then when we got into the show, it was amazing. The opening acts were awesome too-particularly Circa Survive. They are my second favorite band, and to see them live almost made me cry, I was so overwhelmed. The crowd was huge-it was sold out, and that was a bit of an announce but I didn't really mind. MCR is amazing live, they have energy and Gerard's voice is like no other. I cried during one of their songs; "Welcome to the black parade" because it was just so beautiful. After the show my head, back, feet, legs, arms, and stomach hurt-but I couldn't have been happier! I couldn't go to school the next day because my legs/back/stomach hurt from the mosh pit-which was awesome! I can't explain how I felt that day in words...just..amazing.brilliant. THE best show of my life.

so the opening acts were great. Yet the fact that there was a dude totally moshing his butt off kinda ruined it at first. It was my first time listening to The Architects and Circa Survive. When My Chem went on the stage the crowd went WILD. Of course i was one of those screaming fans yelling"MCR!" Once they started playing Na na na, the whole room exploded with energy. The crowd became one moving wave. Jumping people were everywhere. Sadly since i'm short i couldnt really see them but i was jumping a lot. Gerard sang the words and everyone sang back. Frank, Ray and Mikey played and you can see fingers playing the notes of the guitars, This show was INCREDIBLE. It was my first show and my most memorable.

MCR put on a great, energetic show! Played all their hits and a few surprises

MCR was simply AMAZING! Great mix of songs, with some from their great new album as well as favorites from previous ones. The band's energy was just wonderful, I loved it all!

how do you really review a concert. you either like the music or you dont, the band either brings it or doesnt, my chemical romance brought it, so did gas light anthem, the first band the rxp house band, wow, really bad, my ears hurt after their first few songs, didnt expect so many teens and parental chaperone's at the show,

Amazing show that I've been waiting five years for. My Chemical Romance is back, and they're better than ever. New style, color, great lyrics, and a memorable experience nobody will forget. Some say they've sold out, but they've grown up and matured, and as a result, created a CD that was worth waiting for. Moshing got a bit out of control. Happens at every concert, but really, there are people trying to ENJOY the music who don't want to be pushed around. Also, there were people smoking right in front of us...thought this was an all ages show and a no-smoking facility? Studio house band was very bad. I thought it was only The Gaslight Anthem opening, and when I heard I had to sit through ANOTHER band, that was kind of irritating. Very bittersweet when My Chem came out. Everyone loves their new stuff and their old stuff as well. Very cool that Dr. D was there to open and start the concert...everyone went nuts. Great show overall. MCR does NOT disappoint. You never know what to expect from them onstage. Frontman Gerard is always doing crazy stuff, which makes for a better show. They are all wonderful people and my absolute favorite band. I missed hearing from them for 4 years, but this CD is a HUGE improvement over The Black Parade, and just goes to show how much they've matured. As Gerard said during the concert-- "We're back! And we missed you!" Yeah. We missed you too.

By far the highlight of the night was the Gaslight set. This band is set for the next level. MCR was lucky to get Gaslight there as an opening act. Probably will flop roles by this time next year if MCR is still around.

How to describe the best concert experience ever? MCR rocked from the second they appeared on stage until Mikey plucked the last chord on his awesome bass! DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW if you have any love for rock music! Get lots of sleep before you go and be prepared to be totally exhausted when you leave. It'll be the rockinest night you'll remember for a lifetime!

Great venue with a great band- I took in a bunch of 15 year olds & they had a great time!!

The entire show was great, beginning to end, all the bands sounded great. My Chem was point on and sounded amazing.... They blew the doors off the place

The lines were long and the night was cold but once MCR hit the first note, that was all forgotten and energy filled the room. The show got off to a slow start with Fifteen Fleeting. Gaslight Anthem started to hype up the crowd a little bit more, but once the true reason why we were all there came out, My Chemical Romance, everything just exploded with excitement! They play songs from Revenge, Black Parade and of course Danger Days. All in all a great performance by MCR! There are truly amazing!

Weird but delightful combo. The Gaslight Anthem is awesome as is MCR.

Gaslight Anthem was tremendous as usual mixing in a lot of songs from their first album Sink or Swim. My Chemical Romance also did a great job mixing in old with the new. Although the show was a lot of fun, it's a shame to see someone like Gaslight at such a large venue where you can get as good of a vibe/feel for the music as you would at other NYC venues. All in all was a good show.

Roseland Ballroom was the place to be on Dec. 3rd 2010. The highly anticipated My Chemical Romance show had sold out in just 5 hours the day tickets went on sale. The line outside the venue started to form two days in advance to the show, killjoys eager to be right up front and center stage to finally witness their favorite band perform again. My Chemical Romance, better known as My Chem or MCR was on a two and a half year long hiatus recording and perfecting the new and edgy punk-rock album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys , the concept of the record was based on an idea vocalist and comic book writer Gerard Way came up with of radio transmissions heard from the year 2019 being told by fictional character Dr. Death Defying played by Steven Montano of the band Mindless Self Indulgence. My Chemical Romance is known for their over-the-top, dramatic and theatrical style of music. In addition, the band s style is quite unpredictable, each one of the four album s they put out in the ten years they ve been around take on their own personality and are so different from each other which makes fans fall in love with each side of them, with that in mind no one knew what could be in store for the live performance but one thing for sure was that there was not one silent mouth in the whole ballroom when Dr. Death Defying walked onstage and spoke the words to the intro, Look Alive, Sunshine from the new album, then when newly pink-haired Gerard Way walked on stage the whole crowd erupted, and at that single moment it was official, My Chemical Romance owned that place for the next two hours. The band s set was jam packed with 16 songs and two encores so that the energy never stopped. Not only did they play some new tracks such as Na Na Na and The Only Hope For Me Is You but the band also played all the crowd pleasers and fan favorites from other albums like songs Teenagers and Welcome to the Black Parade and their Bob Dylan cover Desolation Row . The chemistry between all members onstage was incredible, between Rhythm Guitarist, Frank Iero falling to the ground playing his heart out, Guitarist, Ray Toro ripping out solo after solo and Gerard running all over the stage putting every last drop of energy he had into the performance it showed that My Chemical Romance truly love what they do and play every show like it s their last. It was also true that every single person in the crowd no matter where they were standing were lucky to be in attendance and after the show everyone had already begun to count down the days until My Chem play in New York again on April 22nd at Terminal 5.

The show kept to its schedule, the sound and lighting were both excellent, and the band performed to the back of the room - truly a feat in a venue as deep as Roseland.

It was my first time to Roseland Ballroom (I am from Ohio) and it was interesting to see all the history of the place. But the highlight of the night was MCR for sure. They sounded great but in particular had energy and enthusiasm like I haven't seen before. I saw the Black Parade about 7-9 times including once in England and MCR straight up a few times beyond that but don't recall so much energy. It was a great time and mighty impressive.

When a band releases a new album, usually the first shows are a roller coaster of ups and downs with the crowd politely listening to new music. Not so here! Friday's show was a constant cheer, dance, sing-along that left you wanting to start over again. The new album shined right along with the tried and true and the crowd was singing until they had nothing left. It's pretty unique to see a new album out for less than a month have such an amazing following already. Great great fun!

What a great show.. could have done with out the 2 hours of other bands palying before they came on and would have loved if they played a bit longer... other wise the show was awesome and the vibe in the room was grt

Nice small venue, MCR sounded great, played nice mix of old and new. GLA sounded great as well....

MCR came out with volume on high!!!! But I think this adversely affected their sound.....the band was so loud, it was difficult to hear Gerard throughout the show. My ears were ringing over a day later! And it wasn't the house sound because Gaslight Anthem went on before them and the singer was clear; they sounded a lot better than MCR. Although the mix/sound was horrible, MCR put on a good show.

So, in conclusion, I have been to many shows over the years. My Chemical Romance was defiantly the best by far. There was loads of energy and passion. It was quiet the unforgettable experience. I would not mind at all seeing them again

the show was amazing and a great experience. good opening acts

The show MCR put on was unforgettable and amazing. They had fantastic stage presence, and kept the audience really engaged and entertained. I can't wait to see them again.

just one word can say how amazing it all was: FANTASTIC.

my chemical romance is amazing, no matter where you see them, or when.

it was their first show in over a year & a half & they still had it!!! they were sooooo amazing!!! it was incredible!!! best show i've ever ever been too!!!

This being my first concert, I didn't know what to expect. MCR really entertained. Having been standing on the main floor, I was constantly pushed around with the rest of the crowd, but it only added to the excitement and energy of the concert. Everyone was singing along. This is something that I will never forget!

MCR rocked, period. It was my daughter's first MCR concert. We're from North Carolina, and yes, we went to NYC to see MCR with their hometown fans. We planned our Spring Break vacation around this concert. The Architects and Neon Trees were no slouches but not MCR. Gerard interacts with the audience well. They played it all, old, new, really old.

My Chemical Romance, Neon Trees, & The Architects. What a freakin awesome show! Neon Trees blew me away. MCR was just as fabulous as ever! Third time seeing them, and they did not disappoint. Love, love, loved it! So much energy, great crowd, awesome music, awesome time.

Last nite I went 2 Terminal 5 to see MCR 1st time in my life ....even the line outside was madly long but I still excited Iv been listening 2 their music since several yrs ago ... as Im typing this words , my heart still beating hard and pounding loud !!!! The concert was amazing ! ppl got so high & hot & wet !!! unforgettable nite !!! Neon Trees r also awesome !!!! luv 1983 & animal

I got the tickets to see Neon Trees who were supposed to be an opener. They were not on the bill for this show or there Montreal show (passport/visa issues?). By the time MCR was on we were at the barrier. I was pleasantly surprised with MCR as I was not expecting that much from them.

Awesome for my first concert, waiting in the rain and snow for 1.5 hours was worth it! Really surprised they didn't play SING though. Overall, it was great.

The show was absolutely flawless from beginning to end. I've never heard of The Architects (the opening band) before, but they were great. My Chem definitely delivered an amazing and unforgettable performance. I hope they play the Orbit Room again, because it was a really personal and small venue. I would definitely see them again next time they play Michigan, at any venue.

What can I say? My Chemical Romance never seises to amaze me. With this being the fourth MCR show I have attended I can conclude that they just keep getting better. They truly know how to put on a show. Even their opening act, The Architects were awesome! (I had the honor of meeting their guitarist, Keenan and had a discussion of Tornadoes vs. Earthquakes.) Even with Ray Toro (lead guitarist of MCR) hobbling on stage with his broken foot, and the rest of them suffering from exhaustion, they were able to keep the energy up the whole entire show. The band had a fantastic setlist as well, playing songs from all four albums and even ending with my favorite song off their new album "Danger Days" called "Bulletproof Heart." Seeing this show was definitely worth having to stand out in the cold and rain for seven hours and then being crushed by a rather large crowd of people. I would highly recommend seeing at least one My Chemical Romance show in a life time, believe me you will be hooked.

This was a pretty great show. The band sounded amazing. They seemed a little tired, but it was still great. Ray had a broken foot, but he stayed up there the whole time with a smile on his face. They played a new, slower version of Ghost of You which was completely awesome! I am so glad I got to see this show!

It Was Beyond Amazing!! well worth the money and i can't wait to see them again

Enjoyed the show had loads of fun in the crowd lovemcr brst gtoup ever also enjoyed neon tree they have a new fan : ) overal had fun and would reluve it over and over agaain if I could did I mention I cought frankies bottle of water he thre at the crowd. : )

This was the third time I've seen My Chem and it was amazing. They did songs off all four of their albums. They know how to energize the crowd. I love them so much!

This was my first MCR show. Me and a Friend drove 5 hours to Chicago to see them. We were in line at 8 am for the event. The fans in line were very friendly and we all danced and played games during the long wait. The security at the venue were pretty nice too. But one thing they didn't do was pass out water. All the other shows like this I have been to the security will give drinks of water to the people in the pit, but not this show. so there was people passing out left and right throughout the whole show. Another thing that bugged me was the stage was too damn high! My neck was really sore from looking up before the first opening band even finished! And if that wasn't enough the way they had the barricade set up was just weird. It was set up like the stage had a cat walk, but there was none, which made the fans even further away from the band. Obviously none of these things are My Chemical Romance's fault, I just didn't like how the venue was set up. It kinda disappointed me to be so far away even tho I was on the rail. The show itself was pretty amazing. I felt some great energy during most of it, the times I could manage to move at least. Gerard doesn't seem to move around much though. He kind of just paces and haed bangs his head. Still a great performer though. Mikey and Gerard were the most active ones. I don't think Frank and Ray ever moved away from their microphones. I wish they had more energy up on stage. Not to say they were terrible, don't get me wrong they were amazing, there just weren't any "WOW" moments for me. Not to mention, I have been to 5 Green Day shows, and the energy they give off at a show just doesn't even compare to any other band. After the show we got to meet Frank and get signatures. All in all I say it was well worth the drive and the long and cold wait in line.

This is the second time I've seen My Chemical Romance and they were still absolutely amazing and both the Architects and Neon Trees did not disappoint. They kept you on your toes, and even though the venue was a little small and way too hot, it was still a great show.

A My Chemical Romance crowd is a passionate one. So not only did the boys from Jersey recieve an outstanding ovation, but the opening acts did as well. Upon arriving at the venue I saw a line had already formed, and I could hear a group Killjoys singing multiple MCR anthems as we approached. I was lucky enough to arrive relatively early - and determined enough to fight the rest of the way to the front. The Architects, though I'd never heard any of their music before, were energetic enough to get me bouncing along to the beat. I made a few lyrical mental notes for looking up song titles later. Neon Trees were great, and very entertaining. I anticipated their popular song "Animal" as soon as I heard they were one of the openers, and it didn't disappoint. I didn't know the words to more than two songs, but they've got such a great stage presence that I still really enjoyed their time in the spotlight. As soon as Neon Tress signed off, though, the crowd's energy spilled over. Every amped-up fan was pushing and being pushed, and I couldn't stand even remotely still for the rest of the night. The crowd only got more excited when the lights changed, and completely erupted with the first sighting of the band. MCR didn't disappoint, either. They played many new songs but didn't skimp on the older favorites, sampling from every album. By the end of the night, myself and everyone around me looked like we'd gone swimming. I lost the t-shirt I'd bought pre-show in the crowd, but in return received a number of bruises as souvenirs. Perhaps I'm biased, with the headliner being my all-time favorite band. But I left the venue exhausted, with my ears ringing and my voice a higher pitch, completely satisfied.

This was a great show :) There was never a dull moment during the entire show. Even though it was hotter than all get out, the performers made the crowd come alive. From start to finish, this was a fantastic show, which the crowd loved. Overall, a must see for anyone who loves punk, Neon Trees, or My Chemical Romance. :)

def someone to see live before you die. loved it!!

The concert was completely AMAZING! Neon Trees was the best opening band I have ever seen!! Frontman Tyler had so much fun with the crowd that it was just awesome! My Chemical Romance was of course the most amazing band I have ever seen live! I loved their choice of encore songs the most :] The crowd was also extremely fun to be a part of! Everyone was really nice and I wouldn't mind having my insides crushed by those people again (which is a good thing!). Overall the concert was beyond amazing and I would do it all over again if I could!!

This concert literally rocked my shoes off my feet. I lost my left shoe twice!! Although the fans were a little rowdy, the music was exemplary. I made a few new friends while I was body surfing. Yeah, we did that. Gerard congratulated the fans more than once for picking fellow fans up and helping each other out when we fell. I would go see them again and again if I could.

I don't think I could even put into words how awesome this band is live. I'm still on cloud nine and waiting to come down. They are also the sweetest humans on the planet and are so into what they're doing up on stage. I don't normally like live shows but these guys are BETTER live than on their albums. Epic. Just epic. See them if you can, you will regret it if you don't!

I wasn't sure what I was expecting when I found out My Chemical Romance's show at the Val Air was sold out. Heck, I've only joined the MCRmy back in October after being an on-again, off-again fan. I was taking two friends who sort of knew about MCR, but weren't big fans, and I wasn't sure what the crowd was going to be like. It was so worth it. Both The Architects and Neon Trees fit with the crowd for opening acts. They're definitely both different types of music (Architects being very post-hardcore, while Neon Trees is really alternative more along the lines of pop, but not really), but considering what MCR has done, they work so well. And all three bands really do promote each other very well. The actual concert was amazing. I can't say anything else. I was so out of breath from singing and sore from jumping up and down at the end. My ears are still ringing two days later (but that may be because I was in front of the speakers...). They played music from all four albums (seeing them perform Vampires was awesome, and I can see why it's a big hit with the band and their fans), but obviously played a lot from Danger Days (which I absolutely adore). But hearing some of their bigger singles, like Helena, Welcome to the Black Parade, Teenagers and my favorite I'm Not Okay (I Promise) was equally as awesome. I'm a bit disappointed they didn't perform Sing, as I know Gerard would've done an amazing job on the song. But I'll take it for what it's worth and still say that the setlist they did was great. What I have below isn't complete, as everything ran together, but I think it's pretty comprehensive. Next time I go, I'm making sure I get there earlier so I can get closer to the center of the stage so I can see all of them, and be able to make sure they get the artwork that I created for them. (I handpainted four Killjoy masks based upon their Killjoy characters and left a personal message for each of them, which I threw on stage after the show, so I hope to God they got them!) But I am for sure going to see them again in the future. They are an amazing band live, and the fans are awesome.

Not only did they get the whole crowd going, but they commanded the stage as if it was their last night ever playing. Their opening acts were also very good. The whole show was just put together so well! They also told me Happy Birthday on stage so it was pretty much the best concert EVER!

MCR played all of their best stuff from Danger Days and past albums! It was also Gerard's birthday and that probably made for a better show.

The best mosh pit I've ever been in ! :) it was wayyyy better than Bullet For My Valentine (:

What can you say about MCR that hasn't already been said? They put on a helluva show. Very high energy, loads of fun. Lots of old MCR fans who GET what MCR is about which is cool, but also newer fans who don't but they add nice energy too so it was all good. Unfortunately, Showbox Sodo is NOT a good venue for ANY act. Aggressive, testosterone-laden bouncers who forget that YOU'RE the one who payed to see the show. They lived up to their reputation for being jerks. Ventilation was horrible, people passing out from the heat. Acoustics sucked too. YUK.

Even with balcony seats My Chemical Romance is amazing. They are my favorite band of all time and I would go to every show if i could. I wish I could have met them though. They took a while getting out so I had to leave and for some reason not everyone came outside to sign.

My Chemical Romance is one of the best bands to come out in a long time. I am absolutely in love with their music, message, and style. They keep things fresh always evolving but always maintaining the core of what we all know as MCR. They make it fun to go to concerts again, their energy and passion is just amazing. This was a gift from my mother for my birthday, she knows how much I love the band, but it was in St.Louis 4.5 hours away.LOL I laugh because we (my husband and I) have seen them 4 times now, and each time it has been in a different state. Being in a band ourselves we are afraid to say this, but we seem to have become MCR groupies, well just to the point of going out of our way to see them.;) They have been to Indiana one time that we know of, during The 2 year Black Parade Tour and it was the weekend of my sister s wedding so she won. Sorry guys.:) But we did travel to Columbus OH a week before that just so we could see them. That was for my Husbands birthday BTW. Anyway back to the review, it was an eye& ear candy orgy, we had fun dancing and singing to all the songs. The presence of Gerard Way alone is breath taking. He is an amazing front man. He could probably make the whole crowd stand on one leg, rub their belly and pick their nose at the same time if he wanted to. But he loves his fans too much to make them pick their noses.;) Then you add the guitar styling s of Ray Toro who is just electrifying on stage. The talent that man has in his little pinky is more than most could even compare to on and equal level in their life time. Then there is Frank and you can't forget little Mikey Way.;) All of them great performers! As I said in the title it was no surprise to me that it was yet another great live show, it's pretty much a given when you go to a MCR show, they will always knock your socks off! Now if they would only come back to Indy (Verizon Wireless) this summer. It will be odd to not have a road trip before their show, but having them in our own back yard, I could live with that!;) If you've never seen a My Chemical Romance show, I highly recommend it. If you love ROCK music you will love MY CHEMICL ROMANCE.

This show was worth freezing my ass off in line to get in!!!! They were great!!!!

Well besides waiting outside in the freezing cold with the hundreds of other My Chem fans, it was a very good show. A St. Louis native rock band named Brookroyal opened first and were absolutely amazing. Great energy! Especially when the singer dove into the crowd and body surfed. They sounded great and will listen to them from now on. Middle Class Rut played after Brookroyal and in my opinion, were terrible. Did not like them at all. When the drummer had a temper tantrum and threw his bass drum and then tried to explain to the crowd (who was in absolute shock) that it was all part of the plan (which it clearly wasn't), you knew this wasn't going to be very good. After his tantrum and explaining that the drum has been telling him bad things about his wife, his kids, etc...I thought this man was loony! Then he had to borrow Brookroyal's bass drum. If I were Brookroyal, there would have been no way I would have done that. MCR were great as usual. People were screaming, jumping and you knew you were getting a great show. The song list was more than I expected. I thought they would just pick songs from their new album, Danger Days. But they indeed went over my expectations and played some of my personal favorites. They played some songs from Three Cheers and Black Parade. It was overall an amazing experience and worth every penny and frozen toes!

The first opener (BrookRoyal) was fairly generic, the second opener (Middle Class Rut) was much better and more interesting a listen but had some technical difficulties - My Chemical Romance though? They were fantastic throughout. I'd recommend seeing them wherever you can, they put on a really great, really inspired show. The set list this time around was a good mix of new and old.

Great show! Loved the venue. It was a bit cramped, but the small venue made it feel more intimate and no one was far away from the stage. My Chem was amazing as always, the sound was good, not too loud. The lights were very well done. The two opening acts were a little lacking, but that's just my opinion.

Let me say up front my 1 star rating is for the venue - not MCR who always puts on a great show. This was my 5th MCR concert so obviously I'm a fan - but the sound at the back of the Hollywood Palladium was so bad it ruined the show for me - all tinny & buzzing. I would think it was MCR's set-up except I've read on the internet since then others' comments about how bad the acoustics are in the Palladium. My son was both up front & in the back for parts of the show & said there was a huge difference in sound quality. View was good as I was standing in a slightly elevated area & it's not a large facility so you're not far from stage even in back. Got some ok pics.

MCR was fantastic, as always! (This was the fourth time I've seen them live!) My only disappointment with them was that they only performed one song from 'Bullets.' But the opening acts ate up a lot of time and they couldn't cover much more than the new album plus a few classics. On that note, I had no idea there were going to be opening acts. It was very aggravating waiting for them to finish their acts so MCR could finally come onstage. If you're a fan and you're going to this show somewhere else, and you don't care about seeing the opening acts, you can arrive at least an hour late. I wish I had. Also, the venue was terrible. The line for the front door was chaotic, and I waited in the South Florida sun for hours to get a decent spot. Then - at the last minute when the club finally opened the doors - they announced they'd be using a different door and the line would have to re-form by the other door. So everyone just ran! Some people fell over. And I definitely lost my spot. So I waited patiently in line for hours for nothing. Needless to say, I was furious, and this will be my last visit to Revolution in Fort Lauderdale.

Where to begin. This was my third time seeing them. They get better every time. Gerard's voice is awesome. Such a showman. A delight to watch. They sang almost every song from the new album, which I just love. The Black Parade was great but I think this one is just as good. They are growing and it is wonderful to see that happening.Would love to see them again and again. Thanks for rockin' my world, MCR.

After not seeing them for four years, I finally got to see them... in a CLUB versus a stadium. I was in the pit the whole time, but had to move to the back of the pit later on after almost being crushed to death (crazy mcr fans). I still had a blast!!!!

Even though a lot of people were suffocating nothing stopped us from having fun, if u missed it, I don't know what u were thinking. I cried with almost every song.

My sister and I have followed My Chemical Romance for 8 years now and when they came to the tower theater and the starling ballroom, we looked at each other and realized we had just planned our mothers day weekend. We couldn't have been more excited, months of preparing and saving up finally we arrived in Sayreville NJ and took our place upfront in line. We waited 71/2 hours and talked to MCR's truck driver and The Guys of This Good Robot (which we didn't know at the time) to pass the time. Once we got inside we darted up front taking our place in the center but off to the right, we were always between Ray and Gerard so we didn't want to break the habit. This Good Robot came on first and they are AMAZING they brought a crazy amount of energy to the stage for playing their only 3 songs. The Architects were next and I think my sister and me were the only ones singing some of their songs. The Singer made the funniest faces and it was a whole different experience with them. Then Came Thursday who really knew how to get the crowed full of energy. We waited and watched as the crew set up for MCR s set and you could just feel the energy in the room lift. Once they started playing Look Alive Sunshine, that was it they started the show off with Na Na Na and the party just kept going. The Guys Looked really tired but they put on the most AMAZING show ever. Gerard still know how to get the Crowd riled up with his strange dances, Ray is still the best guitarist ever, Mikey Actually moved around and I really wanted his sparkle bass, and Frank, I love Frank He was Energetic as always. During Planetary (Go) I got my High Five and thought I could have died, Ray laughed and waved to us since he saw us the last 8 years. I wish I could go back and start the weekend over because it was just too amazing and I don t want it to be over. This band always delivers an outstanding performance for their fans and I feel like they still have plans up their sleeves for future tours, and I hope that s right.

Words cannot describe how Gerard Way really gets to your soul. Reallllly energetic! 10 thumbs up. :) They sound EXTREMELY good live! I had been waiting 6 years to see them in concert and it was definitely worth it.

I bought these tickets at the end of last year and anxiously awaited this show and I must say it was well worth it! The show was amazing. MCR really knows how to rock it hard, loud and fun. The make it all very entertaining. I love the fact that they played at Revolution instead of a larger venue bc I love Revolution bc it feels more intimate and close. The music was sooo loud that my eared felt muffled for the rest of the evening but Im not complaining. The only complaint I have would be that some of the guards at revolution just take there job either too serious or not serious enough! What prevent my night from being perfection was that my cell (iphone) got stolen :( But I will anxiuosly wait to see MRC again!!!!!!!

I have loved My Chemical Romance since high school (now graduated from college) and they have never EVER failed me during a performance. Every time I see them, it has always been a once in the lifetime opportunity. The ONLY thing I can say that bugged me a bit was that they did not play "SING" during this specific performance. I was heavily looking forward to the song and it never was played. Other than that, I would relive that night over and over again despite waiting five hours outside to get in, and by the time I was inside my feet hurt so bad I wanted to scream and cry. All worth it in the end. I love these guys and they never disappoint.

This show was incredible. As always My Chemical Romance rocked. The sound was amazing, the people were great and the staff was nice. At one point, one of the bouncers gave all my friends Frank Iero's guitar pic for being patient with them moving the line around so much due to unloading. Water was regularly supplied to the crowed because it was so hot during the show.

The show was AMAZING! The venue was small enough that I had a great view even though I was close to the back. I missed the first opening act and caught the end of the second one. Thursday was good even though I didn't know their songs. My Chemical Romance was great and played a good combination of old and new songs. The energy in the venue was awesome to experience.

Great show in a small venue, would love to see them again! Great energy!!

The crowd was restless, anxiously awaiting the moment that the stage lights would dim. Thursday had just left the stage after an extensive and amazing set that simply tore down the house, and now the moment had arrived. As the crowd broke into a booming, spontaneous chant, "MCR, MCR, MCR..." a familiar voice cracked through the Starland Ballroom Speakers: "Look alive, sunshine!" My Chemical Romance had arrived. Ever since 2004, I have been enraptured with My Chemical Romance. Their musical flair, coupled with their visual and artistic creativity, have always appealed to me in a way that their peers like Muse and Fall Out Boy never did. The one thing I had never experienced in the seven years I have been a fan of the band, however, was the live act. I had heard rumors, stories and audio clips of what appeared to be the loudest and most energetic concerts in the modern pop rock universe, but none of this could compare to the real thing. As soon as My Chemical Romance took the stage, the crowd exploded. Everyone could tell that the band was more than just a little excited to be playing in their home state, and that energy was infectious. The entire crowd jumped, danced, screamed, and sang along to every word of "Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)," setting the tone for the rest of the evening. My Chemical Romance produces extremely infectious music. Gerard's unique voice, coupled with his flair for lyrics which evoke the feel of comic books and rally the crowd to follow his every move and request, backed by amazing guitar work by Frank, Ray, and Mikey, create a unique musical act that only gets even more amazing live. If you love My Chemical Romance or if you're simply looking to have an amazing time at a live show, you can't go wrong by seeing these boys. I never knew what I've been missing these past seven years, and now that I do, I simply cannot wait to see My Chemical Romance again.

This concert was amazing from beginning to end. The opening acts were stellar; opening with the Architects, they set a calm kind of intro pace (at least compared to MCR), and Neon Trees warmed the audience up a bit with their lively, quick paced songs. When My Chemical Romance came on it was incredible. The audience was enthusiastic and very excited, and the band was remarkable. The sound was good, the lights were awesome, and the music was fantastic. One of the best experiences I've ever had.

I bought tickets to this as a gift for my girlfriend. MCR is her favorite band, though I don't care much for them. However, I was very impressed with their performance. Even as someone who is not a fan, I enjoyed my time watching the show. My girlfriend had an amazing time, of course. She couldn't stop smiling and bobbing up and down in excitement (she's not someone who expresses emotions like that too frequently). I would definitely recommend going to see them if this is your type of music. A good performer can make a show interesting, even to someone who has very low interest. And they kept my interest! Good job, guys!

After waiting for 6 years to see My Chem live, I had the privileged to see them for the very first time in May. My Chem played a great performance, that I will always cherish this memory for the rest of my life. Both bands for the opening acts also put up a great performance. Can't wait to see them again in the future when they come back to Philly.

I went to both nights that MCR was at Starland, and even Gerard said the second night was better. The 7th was still great though.

The energy of the show was amazing, packed house and all. great mixture of old and new songs. MCR has always been my favorite band and i'm glad i got this chance to see them again for like the 10th time. this by far has to be my favorite show ever.

This concert was my first of many and was unforgettable. Ray sweat on me. Gerard looked me in the eyes while I was crying and sang me a few words of my favorite song. Ray smiled for my picture while everyone else was taking them too and he didn't smile for them. My friend got Ray's guitar pick. She also made signs to Gerard after he flipped us off and he grinned at her. My other friend fainted in the beginning of Black Parade.

This was my 4th MCR show. I've seen 'em in large and small venues. This one was probably the best show I've seen. My only complaint is that I wish they would've played longer. We sat through 3 openings acts (only 1 of which I thought was good), and they only played for an hour and a half. With how many great songs they have, I would have liked to hear more. Regardless, I'm still going to any local show they put on next!!!

Vocally and instrumentally they were 100%. The band seemed a little tired, but it was in fact their home show and their families were there... so they were probably itching to get home and spend the night in their own beds for once. Other than that they were spectacular. Didn't talk a lot like they normally do, but were interactive as well as entertaining. <3

What an amazing show this was! This was my 7th time seeing My Chemical Romance and they never disappoint! The very first band (I can't remember their name) was a lot of fun. I was very excited to hear that the Architects were just as awesome live as they are on their CD's. Thursday was good, but they aren't quite my flavor. The Starland Ballroom was great, as always. The crowd was not nearly as amped up as I wanted them to be, but the artists themselves put on a hell of a show and I loved every second of it!

Being a college student means having alot of stress. I had finals before this concert (organic chem and bio) so when I was heading out to see MCR i was pumped and ready to release all of my stress. I've been to an MCR concert so I knew how awesome they were live, but I didn't think that I would enjoy even more a second time. They just keep getting better. The wait for them to get started was a little long (i liked the opening acts), but when they lights turned off and Dr. D started his speech the crowd went wild. Every song they played was clear and beautiful. I sung every part (actually more like screaming because I don't sing very well). There were kids ranging from age 13-30 and a few adults who were singing along. The thing about MCR concerts is that even though a mash pit is going or people are screaming at the top of their lungs, everyone is so friendly. People are always polite and when you are in close corridors you make friends very easily. The venue was pretty good to. You could see the band anywhere you stood (if you were normal height). For me I'm pretty short so it was difficult for me to see but a few people moved so i would be able. I recommend anyone to go to an MCR concert even if you don't particularly enjoy their music. It will get your mind off the stress in your life and show you what it really means to be living.

The band rocked. They were energetic, fun, loud, appreciative, and unbelievable performers. It was miserably hot at the venue and the band had to have felt that, but they kept everyone dancing and singing and they put on an amazing show. I highly recommend that everyone see My Chemical Romance at least once. It's an unforgettable experience and they actually sound just as good live as (or even better than) they sound recorded. Also, the setlist was phenomenal. Excellent show and tremendously talented people! So proud that they represent New Jersey! (Sorry I don't have any pictures of Ray Toro from the show--he was on the other side of the stage; the ones of the band show him, but he's a little blurry).

this show was amazing. they guys were so into the crowed! Ray had a broken foot and still managed to play like a champ, Mikey was as amazing as ever, Frank was so energetic and Gerard looked like he was where he belonged. the sound was beyond perfect, even over the energy of the sold out crowed. they knew every word to every song and there was this feeling of assurance when Im Not Ok was screamed back at its creators. There is no place I'd rather be then at that show.

This was my first time seeing My Chemical Romance. I've been a big fan since I was 13, so finally seeing the guys I looked up to in some of my toughest times was absolutely amazing. They definitely brought the energy to a crowd that had previously been somewhat dead. You see, the main act, MCR, was fantastic but the openers were so-so. The first band sucked and were completely boring and did nothing to pump people up. Neon Trees were pretty good; people actually knew their songs. It wasn't until MCR came on that it actually became a party. They opened with "Na Na Na" which got everybody jumping and to hear them play some older songs was a pleasant surprise. The only two songs that they did not play that I wish they had were "SING" and "Famous Last Words". I would have preferred they closed with "Famous Last Words" rather than "Bulletproof Heart". But over all, it was a great show. Gerard had the crowd eating out of his palm, the merch people were nice, and the music was loud - just the way an MCR concert should be.

Great concert, overall. Starting acts - The Architects and Neon Trees - were pretty awesome as well. A bit cramped and overheated, but what is one to expect? The only problem were some of the other attendees, but couldn't really be helped. I enjoyed it, especially as a first-time concert goer.

I was entirely amazed. As much as I'm in love with MCR, I was not aware of just how INCREDIBLY awesome they were live in concert! I drove up from Philly and wandered Brooklyn for a few hours before going to what was such an amazing concert. One of the few concerts where the opening acts actually were amazing and didn't make me want to run screaming.

So, the show was awesome, and i was lucky enough to be able to get second row from the barricade on Friday night. The venue seemed a little small to me, and it was a little hard to breath at times, but overall the show was amazing. seeing them perform all those songs, i almost died.

Can not wait until they come back, I'll be first in line for tickets!

From the moment they opened to the last song they give it their all - it was non-stop, full throttle. They are even more amazing in live than they are in video, which is something you can't say about many bands or performers.

Crazy...cool...hot...drinking...rocking...fun time :-D

My Chemical Romance were bomb. They were so enthusiastic, and energetic. They sound amazing live. And I just love them.

I missed the tours they did during Three Cheers and Black Parade, but I wasn't going to miss this one. This was my first MCR show ever and it was definitely worth waiting out in Hollywood's bipolar weather. The band played with such enthusiasm and Gerard's singing was simply astounding. They were way better than I imagined they would be. Everyone was moving and singing along. I was so glad that they played songs from each of their albums instead of just their new one and engaged with the crowd. While the band exceeded my expectations, the venue didn't. It was beautiful on the inside, but the stage was nearly impossible for me to see and I was pretty close to the front. If you really want to see MCR at the Hollywood Palladium and are around five feet tall, go up to the balcony because you will not be able to see them unless you're right in front with no one blocking you and nobody likes people who try to shove their way to the front.

This was my first time seeing MCR and they were incredible! I was afraid that they were only going to play their new songs but they did half and half. Gerard was interactive with the crowd and the entire band was lively. The Hollywood Paladium may be old but it is a great place to have these kinds of shows. There's so much room and you have a great view wherever you are standing.

The acoustics at the Palladium weren't all that great. But the boys got up there and the crowd was going wild! They performed all my favorites and were beyond awesome. It was the 7th time I've gotten to see them and have never been disappointed. From the second they started Na Na Na the crowd was jumpin and we didn't stop till the end of the encore, Famous Last Words! Can't wait till they come back!

The concert and venue were awesome!!! I had a great time and would do it again in a second!! I was on the bottom floor which was standing room only. Who wants to sit at a rock concert???

I have seen MCR every time they have been in Dallas. Gone are the days of Gerard in his bullet proof vest. They have developed as musicians and songwriters and they gave a wonderful performance.

MCR sounds just as good live as their recorded studio songs. They played all of our favorite songs, and interacted with the crowd well. Not sure about Gerard's flaming red hair, but whatever!

Revolution Live was such a great place for My Chemical Romance to play at. It was personal and nice, and everyone just could interact with each other. My Chem was certainly blasting it to the back row. It honestly was the best concert I have ever gone to. I queued from 9 am in the morning to get a good spot, and I'm really glad I did. I've been a fan for a long time, so I was psyched to finally get to see them live. I hope they continue doing this for 10 more years, at least. WHAT A SHOW. ♥

Great show. MCR brought their usual energy and talent. They played a good mix of older and new songs. But I loved feeling and hearing the excitement in the crowd when MCR played obvious favorites. I was surprised they didn't play Sing, but that was the only disappointment in an overall fun night.

It was a big surprise that there was 2 opening acts. I looked at the site several times to make sure but it was never mentioned. So that was a big surprise especially since Circa Survive came out. Awesome performance! I also checked the HOB site if they allow cameras and it wasn't mentioned either so I brought mines. Then they told me its not allowed. It was annoying! Things like that should be posted under additional details! After being pushed and shoved MCR finally came out and it was such a great performance. Sounds are great. I can hear his voice. Its not being drowned by the guitars at all unlike the other HOB concert I've been in. Would love to go again. Wish they would play SCARECROW. Love that song!

My Chemical Romance gave the audience all they could have wanted. Hard-playing show with a great live sound. These guys proved they don't need a studio to sound good. Meanwhile, the gracelessness of HoB never ceases to amaze. It's fine for hundreds of kids to be lined up to buy high-priced merch after the show while low-brow HoB staff display nothing but rudeness in pushing parents waiting for those kids to an area in which you can't help but block traffic flow. A young woman and daughter who were flown to Dallas from California after winning a record label-sponsored radio station contest were denied tickets from will call earlier in the day, denied being able to stand in line for earlier admittance because they didn't have tickets in hand and minutes before the doors opened, were given general admission tix and directed to the end of the line. This shows that corporations like HoB need a monopoly to succeed - bullies don't generally like competition and HoB is appears no exception. Hearing of how kids who lined up in Houston awaiting the Friday show were made to stand - sitting could cause ejection from the line - was one more indication of a venue that hopefully doesn't consider itself part of the "hospitality" industry. I spend a lot of money on concert tickets all over the state of Texas and HoB is the venue that consistently earns absolutely no respect in their hosting of events.
