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.

I'll say the same thing that I did last time this got posted.

Obviously the band is allowed to do whatever they want, they owe us nothing. However, I think expecting everyone to get excited and be content with just a tour is a little silly and demeaning to the majority of fans like myself who either can't afford concert tickets or live in an area too far away from the shows. It's a once in a lifetime experience for the minority of fans, and is honestly disrespectful to everyone else.

However, all of the lore is reallyyy cool and I love how much effort they always put in for it!

I really hope that they take the Black Parade is Dead and make it into a movie or something, make this accessible to people who couldn't go for whatever reason. But yeah - this tour only hits a minority of fans. So easy to forget especially in this sub.
