Yknow, when people talk about Gerard’s Return Tour outfits they tend to focus on the North America leg, but we really need to talk more about the insanity that was the very beginning of the tour. Just

Tee shirt and jeans

Tee shirt and jeans

Blood-stained white suit, black gloves, and a blood-stained white ski mask with the Meta logo on it that covers his entire face except for his mouth one eye

something about the euphoria of a shared experience etc etc

[demolitiondecay]

thinking of mk3 on this beautiful day. remembering how they played that rat documentary as an intro and the person next to me had to turn around because they had a rat phobia. and then piss and vinegar. gerard basically saying i am cringe but i am free. gerardboard. the greatest summer jam of all time and the song that keeps my therapist driving a lexus. happy birthday piss & vinegar show you have altered my brain chemistry forever

In the note of my year in review I never got the boy zone T shirt at mcrmk3 because it was sold out 💔

gerard's entire 4 minute speech about over-sharing online from sunday night (22nd may)

TRANSCRIPT:

"Because it feels like something's happening. This feels alive. You know that tour we were gonna do in 2020, that would've been a good fucking time. But in those two and a half years, something fucking changed.

And so it's alive. *meta-man voice* it's, so it's alive.

So anyway, I'm gonna talk here. So, um. I like to think. I know you like to think. I don't like explaining myself, fooling things or anything like that but I think this may be kind of important, so.

I guess one of the things I was thinking the other night with that outfit where I was making a mess up here with my friends, is that: we deserve to live, right? In a real world, with real things, and real people.

So. We don't want your meta-verse. We don't want you having every single detail of our lives, and CONTROL over it. So do you know how I feel about living your life on a screen, and giving everything- giving these corporations everything. And living in a new and beautiful and EXCITING, virtualistic fucking world.

I feel the same way that David Lynch feels about watching a movie on your telephone. Look it up!

You know, here's the thing. I'm not judging, there's no judgement. You do your thing on there, I've done my thing. Maybe in the future I'll do some more computer shit. [to audience] I fucking love you too.

Look, there can be great things to share on there. Your art! Your friends! You probably might've met your best friend on the computer-net. Just don't give those bastards EVERYTHING! Keep some for yourself and the people you love.

You know, people, y'know with fucking crazy ass outfits and whatevers and fuckin- people be like *deep voice* 'He's crazy! He's... unhinged! He's come UNGLUED!'

That may be the case... but I am free now. Do you wanna be free?!

EMBRACE THE WORLD! EMBRACE THE PLAGUE. EMBRACE THE UNFAIR. EMBRACE THE ABSURD."

[future-crab]

There’s a lot to love about the piss and vinegar outfits but my favorite part is that Frank’s shirt is so much more high-contrast than Gerard’s, so to anyone who’s more than like 3 feet from the stage it looks like Gerard is wearing a plain grey tee shirt and Frank is just wearing a shirt that says “Piss” on it for entirely unclear reasons. Funniest band on the planet.
