My Chemical Romance wrapped up their absolutely breathtaking UK reunion tour in Glasgow last night (May 30).

Headlining the OVO Hydro, the New Jersey titans broke the record for the most tickets sold for a single show, with thousands of fans heading to the arena to watch a typically excellent 21-song set.

And not only did the band pull out all the fan-favourites and hits – as always, opening with recent single The Foundations Of Decay – but frontman Gerard Way also introduced something of a new look. Though it certainly wasn't as dramatic as his blood-splattered white suit in Milton Keynes, the singer seemingly covered himself in some sort of dirt/paint… which obviously made My Chem fans in attendance pretty happy.
