Last night in Los Angeles, My Chemical Romance reunited for their first show in seven years. Tickets sold out immediately to the 5,000+ capacity Shrine Auditorium near USC, with hundreds of thousands left sobbing in the AXS ticket queue.
The group played a 21-track, two-hour set that had all the fan favorites and some deeper cuts. For most of the show, it was hard to hear lead singer Gerard Way over the screaming of the fans who, of course, knew every word to every song. Safe to say this was probably one of the most notable moments of fan collectiveness that was ever documented.
They have another string of dates in AUS/NZ/JAP in March 2020 if you feel like traveling to see them. Otherwise, though it hasn’t been officially announced, you can probably catch them at Coachella, as well.
