Grab your black eyeliner and let the nostalgia wash over you! My Chemical Romance has officially announced their return to Kuala Lumpur on April 30, 2026, as part of the Southeast Asian leg of their Long Live The Black Parade world tour.
🎤Last Time They Rocked Malaysia… in the Rain
It’s been nearly 19 years since Gerard Way and co. last took the stage here during the iconic Black Parade tour in December 2007 at Stadium Merdeka. That concert has lived on in legend: fans drenched in rain, voices hoarse from belting out anthems like “I’m Not Okay (I Promise)” and “Welcome to the Black Parade.”
As one Redditor reflected, it was:
“one of the best concerts they have ever been to,” and yes, “we were completely drenched in sweat by the time it was over.”
