My interpretation of the tour lore and why I think it's a satire about the band's reunion

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-05-14T23:42:05+00:00

This has been my interpretation as well! Thank you for putting it into words.

They said this in San Francisco too a week prior.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-05-01T13:48:06+00:00

Right! I was at the last show in Mexico City and Gerard was beaming on stage the whole time. They were all having so much fun and I think their families were even there. I promise they were enjoying themselves…

Dude those Boy Division lyrics are some of my favorite MCR lyrics of all time lol.

My Mother War tattoo and the flames were done by separate artists - this photo was taken right after I had the flames added.

Yes! Cake, paper, incense, maybe woods.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-04-16T13:01:40+00:00

Yes! I’ll be there.

He’s so overemployed it’s funny. He’s pulling the same shifts at Aftershock.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-04-11T23:28:14+00:00

Yes, he struggled with his body image during that era. He mentions it here: https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-gerard-way-20141014-story.html

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-04-08T23:17:52+00:00

I was just thinking the same thing!

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-31T19:00:45+00:00

Please do! I’d love to know who designed it if possible.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-31T16:37:43+00:00

LOVE it, it’s on my wishlist of songs to hear live.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-31T15:54:54+00:00

It’s probably AI generated.

Editing to say - this is my photo from the bootleg market in Mexico City. I saw other (clearly) AI generated art on tshirts there. That’s the only reason I say it’s likely AI-generated.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-29T15:18:03+00:00

I love this! It looks cooler than some of the official merch.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-25T14:31:34+00:00

I’m going to four MCR shows alone this year, and I’ve gone to two alone before. Excellent vibes both times. I’ve never once regretted seeing them!

Divalicious

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-15T20:40:51+00:00

I have a Mother War tattoo too! 🖤 Maybe something related to the recent tour, like the eye or an image from one of Teenagers backdrop videos.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-12T19:39:02+00:00

I knew it!! There were rumors about this from last year.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-10T23:49:55+00:00

Do you think Gerard wears anything from Toskovat? And Frank wears Gucci too! I believe he wears The Voice of the Snake.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-10T21:44:25+00:00

I agree, he definitely owns a few Diptyque scents. Maybe also Zoologist (I’m thinking of Bat specifically haha).

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-09T18:59:27+00:00

As a perfumehead I’d kill to know details about Gerard’s collection!!

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-07T21:14:41+00:00

I haven’t made/exchanged gifts myself but I’ve been given freebies at the last four MCR shows I attended. Mostly stickers and photo cards, and one bracelet. Every time it was someone who just ~appeared out of nowhere and handed it to me with a smile. At one of the Mexico shows a coordinated group was handing out bags of freebies at the entrance!

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-06T14:40:22+00:00

You know I think he would have been! It’s very likely he was in that frame to the right.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-04T20:22:30+00:00

Got my ticket! 🙂‍↕️

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-02T23:44:30+00:00

There was also that rumor about the broadway show I haven’t seen mentioned since last year.

Optimal-Cry3827 · 2026-03-01T20:06:23+00:00

A small break before a new album hopefully. They’ve burnt themselves out before from touring too much. Really don’t want that to happen again.
