Hey gang, I'm going to the show at Wembley on Friday 10th (VIP standing) and have a bunch of heart shaped lollipops that I wanted to give to people in the line while we all wait. I was going to make zines to give out but I don't have time due to job commitments but still wanted to take part in giving things.

The sweets will be sealed and I have an ingredients list on hand, but I just wanted to check if its cool or a potential faux pas.

Some of us actually wanted to listen to Gerard talk but the entire time the 4 of you where loudly talking. Just shush until the break between sets. You weren't even discussing the show you where talking about how x person did such and such on Wednesday, etc like pls just have that convo later.

I have a spare ticket because my friend can’t go now.

It’s seated and I know I won’t be able to sell it because there’s TONS available still 😢

Any advice? I’m a seasoned gig-goer but never alone.

I'm going on the 8th and here is my wishlist:

The World Is Ugly

Kiss The Ring

Skylines & Turnstiles

You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison

Give 'Em Hell Kid

Demolition Lovers (unlikely I know)

My Way Home Is Through You

The Only Hope For Me Is You

Save Yourself

Bury Me In Black

We Don't Need Another Song About California

I know if I'm lucky I'll get a couple of these. If I just tick off one of these I'll be happy, I know I'm Not Okay, Helena and Na Na Na are practically a given so that's why they aren't included in the list lol.

So many people are getting VERY bothered about Gerard's "burp" during cancer at the Anfield gig. I was there and personally i don't think its a big deal at all. It didn't ruin the song and he didn't laugh or address it.

HOWEVER, I can also understand why it could annoy some people as Cancer is a sad song and very special to a lot of people (including me) and a lot of people waited a long time to see it live.

what is everyone else's opps?

i’m kinda upset lol . the setlist was fire . it won’t be as good for the july 8th show bc they won’t repeat :( to hear fashion statement , sorrows, hang em high, vampires😭🙏 oh well. ik we would prob get more danger days but the first two albums were my all time fave and im kinda gutteddddd. anyone else feel like this😭 so jealous of u glasgow😡

Im going to a mcr concert on July 10 and im so excited!! Is there anything i should look out for since it's my first time and i dont wanna seem rude like is it ok to sing the lyrics or that stuff?? Idk lol but anyways ikm just nervous so yea

Hey! This will be my first concert and I'm a little nervous I've never been to something this busy or big. I have a few questions and I guess I'm also looking for any advice on things I may not expect that only a person that goes to concerts would know.

I have seated tickets, what is the ideal time to arrive at the stadium, fill water bottles, buy merch, and find my seat, before the show starts? I don't want to go too early and spend hours waiting but also don't really know the exact start time to make sure I don't miss the beginning.

How does merchandise work? I've read there are sellers outside but then also unofficial sellers, how do you tell? If I'm only allowed to take a bag the size of an A4 sheet of paper, how do I buy the merchandise beforehand and keep it with me? What's the average wait time in line for merchandise?

How strict are they on what you bring in? I plan to bring 4 empty 500ml bottles of water with the lid off(Do I need to hide the lid? do they want it off permanently? or just to prove its empty?) some sachets of electrolyte powder, a pack of peanuts (some type of food, edited after realising it was a bad idea) sun cream, and an electric handheld fan, and a folded up shopping bag in my bag that I guess would be bigger than an A4 sheet if unfolded(for the yea & nay cards). Also, if there is anything they decide I cannot bring in, what happens? do they have a bin right there? do I have to go find one and get back in line?

When leaving I'm heading to Euston station, I've read the trains are packed but also organised, how do I know what line to join to get to Euston? is it all signed? are staff pointing you in directions? do you buy the tickets before joining the line? I have never used the tube before.

Sorry if these all seem like silly questions, I worry a lot! Thanks!

I'm fed up with people who are just coming to the shows then complaining about "Gerard burping during Cancer" or "How insensitive a guy with a bomber vest is" - this isn't coming from real MCRmy, this is coming from the casual listeners who aren't invested or knows about the lore behind the tour.

Like, it's frustrating. The guys have put alot of thought into this clearly. The cheapest tickets at Wembley are now around £40 (I got mine for like £80 so annoyed that I didn't wait lol) and for that, you're seeing a whole Rock Opera, theatrical performance. These are stadium shows too.

Like All Time Low's arena tours are far more expensive. A RØRY ticket (she's literally amazing though) in an academy is only slightly cheaper.

Seriously, people need to stop complaining.

Sorry for the rant, I know it's not people on Reddit.

hi guys!

i thought i’d make this post so we can all discuss about our show, florence/firenze italy 15 july, since it’s less than two weeks away now :D

i’ll go first! i have the verde/green ticket and im flying there alone from kosovo on the day of the concert (with the hotel quite far away too cause these were my only available options to book for this trip 🥲), and this is my very first proper concert AND travel abroad, so i’m very excited but also quite nervous too 🥹 i’ll be staying for basically a day and a half in florence

so if you have any tips/tricks/advice for the concert and florence/firenze itself, let’s all discuss here and help eachother out! :D

EDIT: posters are in fact £40.
I don’t know I guess I’m just disappointed. I’m in my 30s and have been doing shows since the early 00s. Merch has always been expensive and it’s risen in price significantly in recent years - fine.

I don’t get to go to as many shows any more. We’re a very low income family, and I’ve recently developed a disability which impacts my mobility. This show was a really special treat for us as we don’t get out much due to it. We’d already paid a lot for transport and the ticket. I really don’t have money in my budget for additional spending. I told myself to get the poster because I love merch and already knew I wouldn’t have been able to afford tees etc. Im aware of exclusives, limited runs, whatever - but I was expecting £30 at a push. £40 has just kinda thrown me off.

Original: I feel like we possibly got overcharged.
I know merch prices have significantly increased in the last ten years - fine, whatever.

But we got charged £40 for the poster in Glasgow last night. FOURTY POUNDS for a POSTER..? That can’t be right surely. When we got to the merch stand there wasn’t any poster/price on display, but going by the total cost of what was bought it works out being ridiculous.

Can someone please just confirm that’s right? Or were we overcharged? 💀
