I went to the Black Parade and never came back
I attended a MCR concert for the first time a few nights ago and I’m still riding this high. I think it hit a deep nostalgia for me hearing Not Okay to the infamous G note to the guitar ripping on Mama live. Growing up, I came from a household that judged and bullied for not being understanding of what I was into.. MCR (amongst other bands) were pushing it. Of course, I listened to MCR regardless of what they thought, but I couldn’t fully “indulge”. So I missed out on their previous tours/performances. But holy shit.. my inner 12 year old kid was losing it as soon as I heard G. And I couldn’t help but think.. this is healing my inner kid right now. Music really does that.. but MCR really does that for me..
Long live the Black Parade.
