Mascara-abetted rockers My Chemical Romance have a flair for the dramatic, wedding the bombast of Queen with the adrenalized goth punk of The Misfits in not-so-holy matrimony. Their hearts are as big as their hooks, as this ever-earnest bunch attempts to create sincere arena rock even in a club setting. See the band at 6:30 p.m. Sunday at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay, 3950 Las Vegas Blvd. South. Tickets are $38.50; call 632-7600.
