Photos from Birmingham Show 2/13/11 at LG Arena

[ofyourdeath.livejournal.com]

The West Midlands succombed to the Power-punk American rock of My Chemical Romance as the LG Arena enjoyed a greatest hits set that impressed an 8,000-strong crowd.

Opening with the classic curtain drop intro to unveil vocalist Gerard Way and his band mates Frank Lero, Ray Truro and Mikey Way, MCR roared into Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) and Give ‘Em Hell Kid to rock the make-up-wearing revellers and raise the scream levels to fever pitch.

Thrashing through Hang ‘Em High and Our Lady Of Sorrow, the fast pace continued through a power-riffed Famous Last Words before being slowed down with harmonies of The Ghost Of Me.

While not offering a particularly visually-appealing show, the consistent swagger of Gerard Way bouncing around the stage kept the predominantly young crowd happy, particularly with the tempting chordular treat of there biggest chart hit, Welcome To The Black Parade.

Ending the night with Cancer and the epic Vampires Will Never Hurt You, MCR left the stage to audacious screams from their army of followers.

Haha. A west country man. What's all this guff about Puerto Rico? He's clearly from Cornwall, you can tell by his accent!

Succombed?
Frank Lero & Ray Truro?
Make-up-wearing revellers?
Chordular?
Audacious screams?

By the way, those pictures are the perfect soothing antidote to badly written articles. *calms down*

The Ghost of Me. That was written by Ray Truro, correct?

I want Mikey's top.

Also, that writing on gee's arm is still looking pretty tattoo-ish to me!

Hey, at least it wasn't "Gerald" Way this time.

G is such a pretty, pretty girl.

So people "succombed" to Lero and Truro, who are in a band with a visually-unappealing make-up wearing "reveller," and they played "there" greatest hits (including "The Ghost of Me") while the crowd screamed "audaciously" at them?

THIS ARTICLE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. :')

Oh, Frank Lero is back? Woohoo!

*ignores all crimes against grammar, spelling and humanity this article has committed and takes away relevant information*


VAMPIRES WILL NEVER HURT YOU :D

(..... but how are the chances they actually played Vampire Money?)

It's so nice that they keep Frank Lero about and trot him out on occassion/keep him around for spare parts.

Srsly, Lero and TRURO?! I just can't /o\

My friend brought that top. People at the merch stall told her for sure the size she got was a mens large...it is tiny and a girl cut. Definitely a Mikey Way special.

Seen a couple of other pics with the writing on the arm and it was more smudged/blurred. If by some long shot it is a tattoo, I'd go and ask for my money back!

They've been playing Vampire Money since December.

[miss-diverse.livejournal.com]

Nice. Well, if they ever come back to Australia... ever...

Ah, okay then. :) I should maybe be a little less invested in whether or not g has a tattoo...

[stealenoughtime.livejournal.com]

So they really didn't play Vampires Will Never Hurt You?
I got all excited about it and then I thought since they got half of the names wrong they probably also got the names of the songs wrong..... "It was something about vampires...." "Okay, let's write!"
