My Chemical Romance add more dates to rescheduled 2022 tour
My Chemical Romance have announced three more live shows for their huge 2022 comeback run next year.
My Chemical Romance have announced three more live shows – in Russia and Ukraine – for 2022.
The New Jersey gang have added a trio of gigs in June to their huge comeback run next year, now also performing at St. Petersburg's Ice Palace, Moscow's Park Live Festival, and Kiev's U Park Live on top of their already-announced dates.
Earlier this week, Gerard Way admitted that My Chem's incredible 2019 comeback gig at The Shrine in Los Angeles was the "most fun” he’s ever had onstage with the band.
"Something that I tried to do, and this was conscious, was relinquish some control," the frontman explained. "I think about control a lot, and in the years since the band broke up I’ve really examined control in all of its forms. My goal at The Shrine was not to direct the audience to do anything. To let them do what they naturally wanted to do. It became less of working a crowd, as they say, or being an entertainer.

"If I moved my hand, it was because I wanted to do it. I wasn’t trying to get the audience to wave their hands and stuff. I was just performing. To me, the new version of My Chemical Romance and the way I want to go about it is exercising less control.”
Announcing their rescheduled tour last month, My Chem said in a statement: "My Chemical Romance is postponing our 2021 touring plans until 2022. We are deeply sad, but those emotions are only a fraction of the depth of feeling we have all experienced watching the suffering and loss of the past year. We just want to be as sure as we can be that everyone is safe.
"Refunds will be offered to anyone who wants them. We are sorry if this is disappointing, and we really can’t wait to see you in 2022. All tickets will be honored for the new dates.
