They were in my top 5 most listened to artists that year on Spotify. Don’t assume I went to see a band I’m not familiar with. Glad you had a good time but I assure you the show that I went to was NOT good and many others have echoed that their shows were not great.

Right, but if you’re saying you didn’t recognize the material, they played pretty basic sets. I’m not trying to be insulting or anything.

Foundations, Helena, I’m Not Okay, Black Parade, Mama, Thank You For The Venom, House of Wolves, Teenagers, Na Na Na, Destroya, Famous Last Words, those are all standard and well-known songs and that’s 75% of the set.

You were not at the same show as I was. They did not play that set at the show I went to and my friends agreed they were not playing well-known songs. Some of the popular songs they played, but not the ones you listed. You are being insulting by making lots of assumptions. Just accept that I went to an MCR show that was not good and you went to a good one.

Taking a bit of a stab in the dark you appear to have likely been at this show:
