More My Chemical Romance
We’re four days away from My Chemical Romance taking the stage for the first time in 7 years. As fans prepare for the big Return, the band have continued to announce even more post-reunion shows.
The latest to be revealed is a show with Thursday in Osaka, Japan. MCR previously revealed the band will support them on their forthcoming reunion in Los Angeles on Dec. 20.
“We are so excited to be coming to Osaka,” the band wrote with the ticket link.
The announcement follows the announcement of their first reunion show in Los Angeles, which sold out almost instantly. The band recently teased an image of the Shrine with a Latin caption that sparked plenty of theories. The update came several weeks after the band’s first photo together at a rehearsal for the upcoming gig.
The band confirmed drummer Jarrod Alexander will play with them for their Dec. 20 show but no information has been given on future gigs.
Thursday are set to open the Los Angeles show following several shows with Saves The Day frontman Chris Conley leading up to the Dec. 20 gig.
