bullets

how many times can the black parade die anyway?

so I saw MCR for the first time on the 10th with my brother and sister, and when I tell you they put on the best show I’ve ever seen, that would be putting it pretty fucking mildly!

a lot of my music taste has come from different members of my family; I remember my brother listening to Bullets and Three Cheers when I was but a little baby, and I remember hearing Thank You For The Venom on the way back from the family food shop and crying (to this day, emotive music can still make me cry haha)

to go from being that lil eight or nine year old in the car on the way home, to being an angsty and heavily bullied teenager listening to Three Cheers and The Black Parade on repeat, dreaming of seeing them live; now to being a 30 year old woman working in fucking insurance for the time-being, and have never stopped loving this band says a lot I think!

There were, quite literally, no flops or misses at all but I think my faves to hear live were This Is How I Disappear, Famous Last Words, The Ghost of You, S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W and Demolition Lovers 👏 so so bloody good!!
