News: My Chemical Romance announce Sydney Sideshow!
Few bands can match the level of fan devotion heaped upon My Chemical Romance; and rightly so, as they have truly earned their status as one of the most exciting bands of this generation. The fact that the devotion is returned in equal measure by the band makes it even more of a phenomenon.
My Chemical Romance’s second studio album ‘Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge’ went on to sell over 2 million copies but it was the theatrical concept album, ‘The Black Parade’ that catapulted them into stadiums across the globe. “This is one to file alongside 'American Idiot', 'Doolittle' and 'Nevermind' on your greatest rock albums shelf “– NME
With their souls bared on truly astonishing lyrics, backed by infectious and intricate music, the band are well known for giving their all on the stage and as Blunt Magazine so succinctly puts it they are simply “one of the greatest live bands in the world.”
Joining My Chemical Romance on this brilliant double bill will be The Get Up Kids.
1999 marked an important year in history - the world awaits the consequences of the Y2K bug, war erupts in Kosovo and the Blair Witch project becomes the most profitable film ever. September 28th, 1999 also marked an important day in music history with The Get Up Kids landmark release, ‘Something to Write Home About’... "It’s original, powerful, aggressive, heartfelt... it is simply the greatest pop punk album ever written." – Sputnik Music On the back of their Soundwave 2010 appearances.
My Chemical Romance will be performing one club show only in Australia. Tickets go on sale Friday 20 November at 9am.

I think the first time I did the Big Day Out we were sharing the stage with the Black Eyed Peas before they got massive we had a great time hanging out and the audiences were fantastic
