AceShowbiz - This summer, My Chemical Romance (MCR) is set to transport fans back to 2006 by performing their classic rock opera concept album, "The Black Parade", in its entirety. The band, comprising Gerard Way, Ray Toro, Frank Iero and Mikey Way, announced their 10-city North American tour slated for the summer of 2025, which will feature each show at a stadium venue.

The tour kicks off on July 11 at T-Mobile Park in Seattle and will traverse major cities like Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Toronto and Chicago before wrapping up on September 13 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. The accompanying acts for each night are an eclectic mix of musicians hand-picked by the band, ensuring exciting and unique shows. Special guests include Violent Femmes, 100 Gecs, Wallows, Garbage, Death Cab for Cutie, Alice Cooper, Pixies, Devo, Idles and Evanescence.

MCR fueled fan excitement on November 11 by dropping hints about the tour with a cryptic social media post featuring a video of a "great dictator" addressing his subjects in a dystopian world. The post read, "It has been seventeen years since The Black Parade was sent to the MOAT. In that time, a great Dictator has risen to power, bringing about 'THE CONCRETE AGE'... Long Live Draag."

Fans, long-time devotees and new listeners alike, have expressed their enthusiasm online. One Twitter (now X) user noted, "Me running to see why My Chemical Romance is trending... 2 decades later and I’m still not okay." Another commented, "My Chemical Romance won't stop until they've killed all millennials with this tour." The nostalgia is palpable, with comments reflecting a sense of returning to the emo roots of the mid-2000s.

Band members Mikey Way and Frank Iero took to Instagram to share their excitement, with Way writing, "To say this has been a dream of mine is quite the understatement. I can't believe we get to do this!" Iero mirrored the sentiment, stating, "8 years ago I had a dream mychem played MetLife Stadium. Today we announce the show I dreamt of... New Jersey Forever."

Fans can get their tickets starting Friday, November 15 at 10 A.M. local time, with more information available at mychemicalromance.com/longlive. As anticipation builds for the tour, it's clear that "The Black Parade" will march on gloriously in the summer of 2025.
