I slept only three hours last night. It was worth it.
If you somehow don't know this, My Chemical Romance is my favorite band. I saw them live four times in the late 2000s, folded myself into the amazing fan community they inspire, and was devastated when they officially broke up in 2013.
There have been rumors about the band getting back together pretty much since that day. My personal fantasy was that they would come back for a reunion show, sometime far into the future, and end the set with "Welcome to the Black Parade." Everyone fortunate enough to attend--and whoever was at home watching via livestream--would sing out every word of our emo anthem once again.

Last night, that fantasy came true. My mind is a little blurry since I was up WAY past my bedtime and I'm only just starting to come down from the high of knowing I now live in a world with My Chemical Romance back in it, but I will do my best to document my experience here.
This is gonna be a long one.
