Ever since My Chemical Romance (MCR) reunited to headline the When We Were Young music festival in Las Vegas last year, Malaysian fans have been manifesting the band’s return to Kuala Lumpur. The last time they performed here was back in 2007 at Stadium Merdeka, where over 10,000 fans sang along to their songs at the top of their lungs.
Previously, there have been hints that local concert organisers were working to bring the Grammy-nominated band back to our shores, but until now, nothing had been confirmed. That is, until fans recently began noticing something unusual projected onto billboards around the city. Here’s what they saw:
Over the weekend, a fan posted on both his TikTok and Twitter accounts about something he encountered while out in Bukit Bintang. In the video, he captured a large digital billboard above the McDonald’s outlet briefly displaying the words “Malaysia, are you okay?” alongside an image of a rose, before switching back to the regular advertisements.
Another internet user spotted the same mysterious display on a digital billboard at the side of the road in Bangsar. For context, the rose is strongly associated with MCR, having appeared in the band’s merchandise and music videos. With this in mind, the cryptic billboard ads have led many to believe that the “Welcome to the Black Parade” artists could be performing in Malaysia later this year or in 2026.
Many MCR fans reacted to the videos with hopeful excitement, saying they’ve been waiting nearly two decades for the band’s return. Others remain sceptical, speculating that it might be a tribute concert rather than the real thing. A few have suggested that the ads may have nothing to do with MCR at all, noting that the rose alone isn’t definitive proof.
However, some of the biggest hints pointing to a potential concert include the fact that the band will be embarking on their North American tour, raising the possibility of dates being added in other regions. Warner Music Malaysia have also been sharing nostalgic throwbacks to MCR’s music on its Instagram account, drawing more interest.
Do you think the group will be coming to Malaysia? We can only hope so. Guess we’ll have to wait and see if the rumours are true.
Here are the viral clips:
