My Chemical Romance's legions of diehard fans swarmed social media on Wednesday (Jan. 29) in the wake of the band's announcement that they'll be reuniting for a North American tour in 2020.
"I HAVE TEARS STREAMING DOWN MY FACE I CANT F–KING BELIEVE THIS JUST HAPPENED," one fan tweeted in response to MCR's 15-minute short film that preceded the tour dates, while another declared, "If this day/week doesn't end with me getting tickets to see My Chemical Romance my fury will be unmatched."
The veteran emo rockers will kick off their cross-country jaunt on Sept. 9 in Detroit, Mich. before hitting up major cities like Boston, Philadelphia, Houston and Los Angeles, as well as stops at festivals including Chicago's Riot Fest, Atlanta's Music Midtown and Sacramento's Aftershock Festival.

Sorry @PalayeRoyale I only have money for one show and @MCRofficial is the one I’m choosing. I’m a broke college student and I’ve been waiting for this show since 2013.
