Rock band My Chemical Romance played the Bank Atlantic Center Sunday night. The New Jersey quintet has become a mainstream act over the past two years, but one thing is for sure, they have not sold their souls to get where they are.
My Chemical Romance proves to be influential and constant at their shows. They always value and support every person’s life and well being. At every performance the band has played, lead singer Gerard Way, gives a speech telling fans that every persons life is worth living.
At the most recent My Chemical Romance show, there were counselors that could help people who just needed to speak to someone. At most of their concerts, there are mosh pits and almost always people getting hurt due to crowd surfing. Way continues his speech by saying “if someone falls pick them up!” This has been a motto of the bands for a while.
Most people have given Rap and Rock music a bad name. The American culture believes that music is influential to its listeners; that’s why there are parental advisory stickers on CD’s. Many researchers have worked on this problem, but it seems like officials can’t really solve the problem. It seems that now the artists have to enforce a non-violent lifestyle.
It’s like a vicious circle. One band like My Chemical Romance promotes non-violence and on the flip side there will always be another performer promoting that violence. Hopefully this cycle will end soon.
It’s shocking that it has come to artists promoting the well being of their fans. Shouldn’t the government be working on that? The American culture should be making more leeway, and they aren’t.
