De acordo com as t-shirts da multidão nas filas da frente, os My Chemical Romance eram provavelmente a banda mais aguardada da noite, depois dos Foo Fighters. E não desiludiram ninguém.
A banda começou a tocar no Palco Optimus às 19.50h. Gerard Way, de cabelo vermelho fluorescente, mostrou-se bastante falador; depois de abrirem o concerto com "Na Na Na", seguido de "To The End" (uma espécie de rockabilly punk), o vocalista dos My Chemical Romance disse que era um dia fantástico para a música, com as actuações de Iggy Pop and the Stooges, Foo Fighters e Jimmy Eat World. Disse ainda que estava um dia lindo e que, com a vista para o rio, esperava que os portugueses, que já mostravam ter muito "boa energia", dançassem e cantassem.
Ao introduzir "Mama", Gerard pediu ao público que pusesse as mãos no ar, porque iam precisar delas, e a multidão obedeceu. Destaque ainda para o enérgico "Destroya" e o fantástico "Teenagers" que pos o público todo a saltar (à semelhança do que aconteceu no concerto no Coliseu de Lisboa).
Entretanto alguém atirou uma bandeira de Portugal e Gerard Way fez questão de a colocar no microfone, atitude muito aplaudida pelos presentes. No mega hit "Welcome To the Black Parade", milhares de vozes uniram-se em uníssono, tal como em "Helena", que lhe seguiu.
Destacamos ainda "Famous Last Words" que levou os fãs ao delírio. Ao chegar ao final, Gerard disse ainda que já tinham saudades de tocar em festivais e que, apesar de ser sempre uma "roleta russa" (em comparação com concertos em nome próprio), hoje tinham acertado no "vermelho". Agradeceu ainda o fantástico fim de tarde ao público presente.

Judging by the t-shirts worn by the people in the front rows of the crows, My Chemical Romance was probably the most anticipated band of the evening, after the Foo Fighters. And they did not disappoint.
The band played the Optimus Stage. Gerard Way, with his fluorescent red hair, was very talkative with the crowd after opening their set with "Na Na Na" and "To the End". He talked about what a fantastic day for music this day was, especially with performances by Iggy Pop and the Stooges, Foo Fighters and Jimmy Eat World. He went on to say that on such a beautiful day, with the view of the river, he was hoping the Portugese audience, who already showed themselved to have "good energy", would dance and sing along with MCR.
Before singing "Mama", Gerard asked the crowd to put their hands in the air because they would need them, and the crowd readily obeyed. Other highlights of the show was the energetic "Destroya" and the fantastic "Teenagers", which had the entire audience jumping (similar to what happened at the Coliseum in Lisbon)
When someone threw a flag of Portugal on the stage, Gerard made sure to tie it to the microphone stand,and his attitude was applauded by all present. Thousands of voices joined in unison to the mega-hit "Welcome to the Black Parade", as well as "Helena".
"Famous Last Words" was also a highlight, getting all the fans on their feet. Towards the end, Gerard said that they had missed playing festivals, even though he said its a little like playing "Russian Roulette" when compared with playing their own headlining tour. All in all, he thanked everyone for a fantastic evening.
