Ray Toro of My Chemical Romance Talks Reunion Rumors

Makes sense. Fall Out Boy broke up for 4 years before coming back stronger than ever. MCR will come back and I think there will be an announcement sometime next year.

 

People who weren't even born? Nine year olds are into them? That seems to be a stretch...

 

Is it? Nine-year-olds listen to the radio, have Internet access and could easily find a band like My Chemical Romance through any number of groups - Twenty One Pilots, Green Day, Panic!, Blink, Fall Out Boy, etc. that still get radio play.

 

Yeah that seems believable.. I was 8 when I got Enema of the state

 

I think I was into music when I was 9.

 

I heard Three Cheers when I was 12, and coincidentally it's 12 years old. Anything can happen

 

I have an eight year old daughter and while I've exposed her to stuff I like she's no where near the point of exploring and finding her own stuff. I guess every kid is different but it's hard to imagine a second grader intentionally looking for that stuff!

Not to mention I don't feel like I was into stuff for real until maybe sometime in high school. I guess I'm a late bloomer or was just a nerd...and those were different times (says the grandpa 38 year old)!

 

I went to my first warped tour when I was 8 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Not really saying too much but at least it leaves it a little more open than "never happening". I don't think it's going to be within the next few years though, unfortunately, as much as I'd want that to happen.

I was pretty disappointed to see that not one of the band members acknowledged TBP's 10 year anniversary on or around the date.

 

Always felt left out that these guys weren't a fav of mine. Like some of their songs, but never faves

 

I still think they are going to play with Thursday at their sold out Starland date.

 

I'm still holding out hope! Haha

 

Frank Iero was injured in that bus crash situation a few weeks ago and canceled the rest of his tour dates the rest of the year, so that would likely put a damper on that.

With Frank just having released his 2nd solo album and Ray about to release his soon, doesn't seem likely on the timing that anything MCR related could happen soon.

 

Too soon for a reunion and this is coming from someone who has a lot of love for this band. Wait like ten more years and then it'll feel like something really special.

First show I ever went to was Green Day and MCR opened. They were still touring on Three Cheers, decked out with the bullet proof vests and shit. Life changing musical experience right there.

 

There's always a window with this. If they're not back in 5, there's no point getting back together. 10 is way too long to wait.

 

Alright then 7 more years

 

Never saw these guys live, would love to see a reunion one day.

 

Young kids love MCR.. If you walked around a middle school or high school and asked kids which band from the emo/pop/punk/rock/2000's era they like the most, MCR is astoundingly in the Top 3ish. It's really amazing.
