My Chemical Romance MetLife Stadium review: set list, tickets
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. There was a palpable sense of excitement — the kind that moves you deep within — at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium on Saturday, Aug. 9. Just before My Chemical Romance took the stage for their 'Long Live The Black Parade North American Tour' headlining set, monitors throughout the stadium highlighted various rules audience members needed to follow in the fictional country of 'Draag,' aka where the audience would be living for roughly the next 90 minutes. One such rule was 'please do not throw hair.' Fair. Yeah, I think I can handle that one. On the field, the Draag's dictator sat directly across from the stage and his menacing silhouette loomed large on the screens throughout the show. This was authoritarianism in full effect. The opening 'National Anthem' led by the bandleader dressed in Nazi-like garb evoked an unsettling sense of patriotism for this fascist, fictional country, and, just like that, we were underway. As predicted by fans, frontman Gerard Way's makeup showcases his ongoing decomposition he experiences each show. Amazingly, he stays in character the whole time. That includes when he shoved countless noodles into his mouth (a lunch break?) and when the mayor of his actual hometown — Belleville, NJ's Michael Melham — interrupted the vote for an execution* to hand over the key to the city. Sorry, we forgot to mention the execution. Clearly, there was a lot going on in addition to, you know, the music. This 'execution' was signaled by a shocking firework bomb that was followed by 'Welcome to the Black Parade,' so any panic created was eased by the chills-inducing anthem. Shout out to Ray Toro on guitar who captivated all night long with his virtuoso axe skills. As we neared the end of the first act, I felt the heat of the pyrotechnics. No lie, I started worrying about everyone on stage. That didn't last long though; my heat sympathies quickly dissipated when another firework bomb (!) went off not long after Gerard's character is (SPOILER ALERT) stabbed. Cellist Clarice Jensen's hauntingly beautiful solo was a transformative interlude and necessary palate cleanser after the dramatics of the 2005 'Black Parade' album in full. When the emo heroes returned to the B-stage to play cuts from other classic records of theirs, they came out as they are – a bunch of talented musicians from New Jersey. Truth be told, this was my favorite part of the show, hands down. For the next 11 songs, the sold-out crowd was treated to a stripped-down set that felt more like watching a band perform in their garage than headlining the gargantuan venue that's home to the New York Jets and Giants. Along with an amazing view of the pale moon, the second-act setlist was definitely for the longtime fans. The 'Killjoys.' The 'MCRmy,' if you will. The real ones that have been there since the very beginning. I went absolutely nuts when they played the angsty as ever 'Skylines and Turnstiles' (for the first time on the tour!) and fist-pumping singalong 'It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a F—ing Deathwish.' Closing out with Bon Jovi's all-timer classic 'Livin' on a Prayer' was the ultimate ode to all those who rep the great state of New Jersey. Final verdict: The theatrics of 'The Black Parade Tour's' heady, high-concept first half both left me in awe and overwhelmed as evidenced by the loud, scary firework bombs. As a result, the stripped-down second half was much more my speed. To each their own. either way, I am fully enlisted in the Black Parade. My only complaint? The show almost felt too short because it was so engaging and enjoyable. Missed MCR at MetLife? The emo legends will be in Philadelphia (Aug. 15), Toronto (Aug. 22) and Boston (Sept. 7) these next few weeks.

My Chemical Romance MetLife set list For a closer look, here's what MCR took to the stage at East Rutherford, NJ's MetLife Stadium on Saturday, Aug. 9 courtesy of Set List FM. The Black Parade 01.) 'The End.' 02.) 'Dead!' 03.) 'This Is How I Disappear' 04.) 'The Sharpest Lives' 05.) 'Welcome to the Black Parade' (interrupted at intro by the band being given the key to Belleville; followed by 'The Election') 06.) 'I Don't Love You' (extended intro) 07.)

'Helena' 25.) 'Livin' on a Prayer' (Bon Jovi cover) (Live debut by MCR) *There were two important handouts fans got on their way into the stadium for interactivity during the concert. First was a handheld poster, that read 'YEA' on one side and 'NAY' on the other that were used for the aforementioned execution vote during the show. Second was a small piece of colored paper to put in front of your phone light. The payoff was that the entire stadium glowed red while we swayed during the slower songs. Super cool to see. Anissa Lorenzi Boukourizia My Chemical Romance MetLife opening acts Gotta be honest here. Thursday did not get enough love from the crowd, which is shocking considering that they're they not only a huge inspiration to MCR but also helped produce their first album, 2002's 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love.' Still, Geoff Rickly and his long-running outfit brought the goods. Ben Gibbard and Death Cab For Cutie was a great chill interlude in between the much heavier, more dramatic acts. Standout tracks include 'I Will Possess Your Heart,' 'You Are a a Tourist' and 'Soul Meets Body.' They'll be at the Brooklyn Paramount on Tuesday, Aug. 12 performing a 20th anniversary concert celebrating the release of their 2005 album 'Plans.' While they performed, fans traded bracelets, photos and keychains. Nice touch, MCRmy. This was a really sweet way for fans to interact and say hello, especially for those who may have gone to the concert on their own.

My Chemical Romance Cover Bon Jovi's ‘Livin' on a Prayer' During New Jersey Show
As New Jersey locals My Chemical Romance returned home with a headline show on Saturday night (Aug. 9), the group paid tribute to one of the state's other iconic acts, Bon Jovi. Performing at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey over the weekend, the latest show in the group's ongoing Long Live The Black Parade Tour wrapped with a special cover version of Bon Jovi's 'Livin' on a Prayer.' More from Billboard Art Fein, Cable TV Host & Author, Dies at 79: 'The Ed Sullivan of Public Access TV' Fans Choose Gunna's 'The Last Wun' as This Week's Favorite New Music Bobby Whitlock, Co-Founder of Derek and the Dominos, Dies at 77 'We're going to play you guys what may be the New Jersey state anthem,' frontman Gerard Way explained, noting it was requested by guitarist Frank Iero after witnessing Way perform it during karaoke. 'I f–king love this song,' he added. Released in 1986 as the second single from the band's third album, Slippery When Wet, 'Livin' on a Prayer' became the second consecutive single from the record to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 following 'You Give Love a Bad Name.' As Way suggested, the song's lyrics and its focus on the working-class from New Jersey have seen it achieve anthemic status within the state. Earlier in the evening, the band's set was interrupted by Michael Melham, the Mayor of the group's hometown of Belleville. Melham was on hand to surprise the group by awarding them the key to the city. 'Belleville's musicians have entertained millions worldwide,' Melham told the crowd. 'Their sound has shaped generations. 'Yet even in our storied history in Belleville – Revolutionary War soldiers, Purple Heart recipients, a Supreme Court justice, various professional athletes – never once in the history of Belleville have we handed out a key to the city and that changes right now.' Way, who was reportedly unaware of the honor beforehand, accepted graciously, albeit remaining in character as The Black Parade portion of the band's set required. 'We cannot let you leave without giving you a token of our land, Draag,' he told Melham in an Eastern European accent before handing him a bundle of wheat and a 'Gubric fish, from the Gubric River' in return.
