My Chemical Romance

On November 14, 2003, My Chemical Romance performed 'Skylines and Turnstiles' live at the University of Connecticut-Stamford, capturing a pivotal moment in their early career. This concert came shortly after the release of their debut album, 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love,' which dropped earlier that same year. At this time, the band was still establishing their identity, balancing elements of punk, emo, and goth—a fusion that ultimately captivated a generation. Interestingly, this track particularly resonated with fans, as it was inspired by the events of 9/11, which showcased their knack for blending personal pain with broader societal issues. This performance marked just the beginning of their journey towards mainstream success, as they would later rise to fame with their follow-up album 'Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.'
