When I started this blog I promised to be more positive. To
write about things I love, things that excite me instead of things that bring
me down. Things that ''take the light behind my eyes''. Y'all know what I'm hinting
at aren't you? The problem was that
these happy things or happy times if you will came so rarely that I had nothing
to write about. Happy memories are few in between which I guess in a way makes
sense, makes you treasure them more. But today. Today is a good one.
So last Friday something went down that I never imagined
I will ever see happen and it honestly pretty much erased all the bad shit
happening this year. And believe me there was a lot of bad shit happening this
year but this…this is a ray of hope that maybe, just maybe now that we're
entering a new decade it won't be as fucked up as the past one was.
It was a concert. And you're going to ask me how can a
concert erase a year long darkness and sorrow? Well it can. If it's the right
band. If it's the right music. If there are the right feelings. They can do a
lot. Music is the only thing I believe has the power to heal, break barriers,
bring people together, make people happy, make people feel again, and if yours
doesn't do that for you, then you just haven't heard the right type of music
yet. I honestly wish everyone had the opportunity to feel that kinda love, that
kinda devotion, and get to see their favourite artist preform live. It's amazing.
And it's just, unexplainable happiness.
First of all I gotta say something about something. I find
it personally offensive that My chemical romance played their first show in 6
years and I wasn't there. Like how? Second. Diet shampoo you're my hero and I
love you. Third I have two settings right now ''I'm going to fight Frank Iero
and there's nothing you can do to stop me'' and ''I will protect Frank Iero at
all costs and there's nothing you can do to stop me''.
Oh my god you guys! The show. The emotions. The support
from the crowd. God. What I'd do to be there, sell a kidney, you don't need two
of those bitches, but I need my boys for at least a bit of happiness in my
tragic life. The whole anticipation towards the show that was building up all
week and mostly entire Friday was enough to send me feral or make me frantic or
whatever the hell the proper terms are these days.
The boys giving fans outside blankets, that's enough to
kill this bitch. It's probably one of my new fantasies to be wrapped in a hug
and blanket by Gerard Way himself. Hell. Can't breathe just thinking about it. Or
the fact that he also gave a dog a blanket. Seriously Gee, stop, I can't handle
the cuteness. At that point my heart probably exploded into rainbows and
unicorns and cherry flavoured lip balm. No joke.
The symbols on the merch trailer. The witches sigil on
Gee (I know what you did there). The way he said ''we're gonna continiue to
punish you''. Please stop. For real. Okay. Enough. I can't take no more. I think
I need a safe word. Something in the lines of kumquat if you know what I mean.
That insanely loud chant of Mikeys name. I died all over
again. I am just SO proud of him. Really. I remember years back when Gee said
if there's ever to be a reunion it's most likely going to be without Mikey, but
he got over his shit, over his addictions, looks better than ever, plays
amazing, and the ammount of support he got was nothing short of what he
deserved. And I am so happy for him.
Are we going to talk about that ''sass queen'' on stage? Because
it's ''pretty stabby'' right? The way he sips tea? The way he walks? The Destroya
moans?! No, you guys, no I'm really not okay. Good thing the show started with
that song because I don't think any of us were really okay ever since
Halloween. The fact that they knew that there will be a reunion since 2017! Oh my
god you smug sons of bitches. Any interview you watch where they say ''no
reunion'' ''it's not going to happen'' etc, those are the faces of people that
know exactly what they are doing and I both love them and hate them for it. Let's be clear. I am 99% sure that Frank was
the only active member online for the past two years because he's the only one
capable of lying through his teeth. The Jonas brothers? I'm on to you Frankie. Especially
smug on that one ''the rumour of My chemical romance being back is like a
broken clock'' not a record but a clock…he wasn't sick being asked about it was
he? It's a clock because even a broken clock is right two times a day. You smug
motherfucker you. I hate you and love you so much.
How about the fact that each show usually ended up with
Helena so that the last sung verse was ''so long and good night'' but this show
ended with ''this one last song, maybe it's the one you wanna hear, I don't
know'' and it was The black parade which ends with ''we'll carry on''? these
guys don't do coincidents this is all a clever plan of some sort and it's
making me all antsy and excited. There's probably little things in life, well
''material'' things that I want as bad as a EU show so I can finally see my
boys live.
OH MY GOD for the first time ever Frank did that intro on
stage! The intro you guys! ''oh I'm there baby'' shit I think I was too at that
very second.
The angel! The reunion angel is actually a statue in NYC
called ''Angel of the waters'' created by a lesbian sculptor and therefore a
huge LGBT spot. Can I die just now? Because this is just too perfect.
Ray? Your fluffy headbanging? Loved it. You're perfect.
That band is all that, sassy and roasting fans and saying
shit but at the end of the day they're nice people that actually love their
fans (were even surprised by the sheer impact the band had on the world and how
loved they really are) and each other and the music.
I don't get it though, are we supposed to just like carry
on now? I'm not ready. I wasn't ready when they broke up, I wasn't ready when
the ''came back'' ten times in the past, and I sure as hell wasn't ready when
Rock Sound on Halloween posted ''MCR is back this is not a drill''. How the
fuck am I supposed to move on, each photo I see makes me wanna cry. Happy tears. And just to be fair, I love this fucking
fanbase so much. I mean there were so many that livestreamed the show for all
of us who couldn't be there, they made us feel included and honestly that's
about the kindest and nicest possible thing. You're all angels and I love you
and I hope nothing but good things happen to y'all in the new decade.
And lastly. I just love how the show was just them. No stage
persona or whatever else. Just the boys as they are. And just, they look great,
so happy, they sound so good and if I keep this up there's gonna be another
fucking flood. Shut up y'all this bitch is finally happy about something.
So, so long and goodnight.
