Gerard Way plays My Chemical Romance show in a cheerleader’s outfit
Gerard Way has performed the latest My Chemical Romance concert wearing a cheerleader’s outfit. When the emo heroes graced the stage in Nashville, Tennessee, on Tuesday night (August 23rd), Way adorned himself with a white and green one-piece cheerleader uniform with a ‘W’ emblazoned on the front, presumably standing for ‘Way’.
My Chemical Romance began the North American leg of their reunion tour last week. They played two rarities for the first time in over 16 years, including ‘Bury Me In Black’ for the first time in 19 years and ‘This Is The Best Day Ever’ for the first time since back in 2005.
The reunion tour had begun in the UK and Ireland before heading to Europe. Following the dates in North America, the band will head to New Zealand in Australia in 2023. The My Chemical Romance reunion tour set and been comprised of a few big hitters, fan favourites and deep cuts, and a few new tracks for good measure.
The first show back on stage was in Cornwall, at the Eden Project back in May. It was their first UK show in 11 years. Shortly after this, the band played in Milton Keynes, where a dead body was tragically found in the MK Stadium car park.
A police spokesperson said, “Thames Valley Police is investigating an unexplained, non-suspicious death in Milton Keynes. As such, it is not being treated as a crime. There is a scene watch in place while enquiries are being carried out. A file will be prepared for the coroner, but I can confirm it is the body of a man.”
