The Black Parade Is Dead! Review
------------------------------------------------------------------
The End - The whole stadium was dark. Gerard way was pushed out, on a hospital bed, like a patient. Wearing a white cloth over himself. He sang and when he got to 'Expect you won't cry', he tore off the cloth and revealing the classic Black Parade uniform... Frank and Ray headbang to the song. He continues singing... 4/5
Dead! - Lights were flashing... Gerard screams, so do the fangirls... He put on a good show with Dead!.. Interacting with the crowd made it better... The Jimi Hendrix guitar licks were awesome also... With Frank headbanging, you know it's a great show... The crowds 'La'ed together with the make up wearing band to a great finish...
Ending with a loud bang, the lights went out... 4.5/5
This Is How I Disappear - Flashing lights all around... Gerard starts off the song with a "What is The Black Parade" speech... Ending with "When this kicks in, get up off the floor!" Red streaks of pyrotechniques flew out from the back of the stage. The heavy song set the mood for all the Mexicans to just rock out with Gerard and gang the whole night long... 4.5/5
The Sharpest Lives - This is the song which I dislike the most because Gerard is breathless. He barely finished any words... But none the less, provided a nice show with all the screaming and jumping around with the crowd... Not great, but nice... But thanks to the heavy drums, Frank swinging his guitar and the pyrotechniques, this brings up the score to a 4/5...
Welcome To The Black Parade - This is the so far the song which the crowd had sang the loudest to... The crowd was left in the dark for quite sometime... Then the famous piano tune came on, played by James Dewees... The spotlight shined on the frontman of MCR and the crowd cheered and sang along. You can even hear the echo! Gerard pumping his fist into the air, told the crowd to follow... Multiple coloured lights came on when the song kicked into high gear... My Chemical Romance was putting on one hell of a show, with the fast strumming on the guitar and the headbanging. Bob, drummer of MCR, also put on a hell of a show... Confetti filled the air towards the ending and the crowds were left chanting for more. Pyrotechniques blasted out when the song ended... 5/5
I Don't Love You - This heavy love song is also a crowd pleaser. Even louder than Welcome To The Black Parade... Gerard tried his hand at acting and did a crying face which left the girls screaming for more... Ray Toro also provided a great solo. The acoustic part of the song was the best as you can really hear the power of the crowd... The song ended and Gerard lifted up the microphone stand. Guitar scratching then started... 5/5
House Of Wolves - The guitar scratching was accompanied by an eerie piano set...
Then the drums came in and the crowed cheered. Gerard regained his energy, shaking his ass to Mexico City... Ray provided an crazy solo for the crowd... 4/5
Interlude - The piano set by James Dewees got everyone in the mood... It was slow and sort of romantic... 5/5
Cancer - The piano solo eventually lead up to the well known ballad, Cancer.
Lighters and mobile phones were whipped out by the whole crowd in the stadium! "Cause the hardest part of this is leaving..." Gerard paused, and blew a kiss to the crowd. Then continued, "You..." Everyone was singing along to this extremely popular song, making it the best song for tonight... 5/5
Mama - Everyone was in the dark, guitar strings were plucked... Then red lights came on... Gerard came on telling everyone to clap... My Chemical Romance was as energetic as ever... The crowd sang loud to this song too... "Mama, we all go to hell... 2, 3, 4..." Gerard shouted and flames shot out from the back! The crowd screamed! Flames continued shooting out as balls in the back, making it look more like a war field... The song ended with a maniacal laugh and a creepy message... "Heh... Heh... Ah heheh... A surprise party? For me? You shouldn't have..." You should listen to it yourself... 5/5
Sleep - Blue lights came on... "Are you tired? Do you think you need to sleep?" Gerard asked Mexico... This heavy song will certainly give you some energy when you need to sleep... After the rest in the song, the shouting finally began... Gerard screamed his fucking lungs out while Frank, Ray & Mikey did great playing their guitars and bass... Bob also did a splendid job with the drums... 5/5
Teenagers - Finally, the song that brings everybody together... Because you either are one, have been one... Or maybe have not been one yet... Ray gave a really jumpy solo and Gerard told Mexico to dance... Everyone pumped their fist in the as Gerard sang, like in the music video... Gerard chicken danced to the the solo! The fangirls once again screams... The crowd was left in the dark again after the song... 5/5
THE BLACK PARADE IS DEAD! - "MEXICO!!! HOW ARE YOU!!!??? OH MY GOD, IT'S BEEN SO LONG. WE MISS YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!! HOW HAVE YOU BEEN??? You look real good... So, I'll have you guys know that tonight, the reason that we're filming this is because this the last performance of the Black Parade FOREVER!!! I wanted to come down here to Mexico to properly kill them off... This song is all about dreams... It's called Disenchanted..." 5/5
Disenchanted - Acoustic guitars blared through the speakers... Gerard sang and Frank headbanged... Ray provided a nice solo... Sparks came out above Bob... You know, like Randy Orton... The crowd wanted more and they got it... 4/5
Famous Last Words - The all time loudest song for the night and the final... The crowd sand to every word and loud... James Dewees also provided back up vocals for this song... The guitars were certainly heavy on this song and the headbanging was almost nonstop... My Chemical Romance gave it their all for this final song and the awesome solo was accompanied by screams from Gerard... THE ENDING WAS JUST AWESOME!!! After the break in the song, the same pyrotechnics were used and there's just this feeling that you can't explain... Lights flashed, cymbals crashed and guitars were on fire... Not literally... "The Black Parade... Is Dead!!!" Screamed Gerard and they credits come on... 5/5
Total - 67/75
Out of 100 - 89 (Great!!)
