My Chemical Romance Waves White Flag in Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader War

Key Points:

• My Chemical Romance has agreed to stop dressing backup dancers in costumes resembling the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' trademarked uniforms during their performances, following a lawsuit filed by the cheer squad in Texas.
• The lawsuit arose after the band's show at the Hollywood Bowl featured a mock gun battle with dancers wearing star-spangled uniforms similar to those of the cheerleaders, which the squad claims damages their brand image.
• An emergency restraining order hearing scheduled for October 28 was canceled after the band and the cheerleaders reached an agreement, with the band agreeing to cease using the contested costumes while the case is pending.
• The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' parent company, Pro Silver Star, clarified that they do not object to the band's performance content, only to the use of their uniform in the act, emphasizing the availability of alternative costume options.
• My Chemical Romance's upcoming tour dates include two more shows at the Hollywood Bowl before heading to Asia for concerts in South Korea, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia.
