My Chemical Romance has reunited and recently (Dec 20) played their first show in seven years in Los Angeles!

Singer Gerard Way, guitarist Frank Iero, bassist Mikey Way, guitarist Ray Toro and drummer Jarrod Alexander played the 6,500 seater Shrine Expo Hall.

Gerard Way dedicated the gig to Lauren Valencia, their former manager who died from cancer earlier this year.

My Chemical Romance broke up in 2013. Since then, Gerard Way released his debut solo album, 2014’s “Hesitant Alien”. He also had his award-winning comic book “The Umbrella Academy” adapted into a Netflix series. 

Gerard Way wasn’t the only band member who kept busy; Iero released a couple solo albums, and Mikey Way formed the band Electric Century.

Are you excited that My Chemical Romance is back? Which other bands would you like to see reunite?
