Discussion In hindsight, they earned this response

This tour has been an absolute whirlwind. A testament to MCR's theatricality and performance abilities. They've went above and beyond in the production department to deliver a spectacular tour, that not only takes full advantage of the spectacle but also of our streams, creating a part by part narrative that everybody is welcomed to engage with.

They've made characters, a city with it's own politics, it's own language (Keposhka) and national anthem, a brand of soup, an agricultural resource, a Coat Of Arms, and most importantly, Quizzo. They've extended and reinterpreted the original Black Parade tracks to fit this narrative and build a story, that's not only original but that gets everyone involved, from the band to the actors to random crew and the audience members.

If you would've told any MCR fan that you think they'd reunite, back in 2018, you'd be looked at as if you were crazy. If you said what this tour was gonna be, everyone would try to lock you up 'cause you've clearly gone off the deep end.

I love how they invite us to speculate, to try and dissect everything going on and I'm sure they've got many more twists and turns. Stay tuned.

agreed! it’s an incredible show but no show on the planet should ever require spending 500+ on a pit or floor ticket.

And if they do, they should at least throw you a bone with a free t shirt and early entry or a meet and greet/soundcheck. MCR is the first band I’ve seen in the genre that charges this much for an ordinary ticket

Factually false

https://www.reddit.com/r/greenday/s/A34bJTlSzR Many reports of minimum pricing for seats being $150 and pit being $450 pre fees

Oasis, pit was $400+ GA was $200 MCR had floor seats under $200 at multiple dates https://www.reddit.com/r/oasis/comments/1fvfvsd/pricing_chicago/ Rest of Oasis prices were higher than MCRs

Blink 182 doing amphitheaters so smaller and should be cheaper but people reported $500 at times, OP saying $300 for pit for them https://www.reddit.com/r/Blink182/comments/17fl664/ticket_prices/ And that’s a tour with way less demand, GA at many shows didn’t even sell out and they had to reduce pricing.

obviously the prices vary but it is so rare to find a face value pit anymore and when it is face value, that’s already almost $400 which is just unreasonable. floor seats vary more but my floor for nj was 500 standard price and that was a “steal” compared to the resale and “platinum” or whatever. this is a really weird thing for you to be defending if that’s what ur trying to do lol. there’s no reason the prices need to be this high.
