Wentz not sure about future of Fall Out Boy
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 3 February 2010
How about some idle speculation about the future of Fall Out Boy? I say “idle speculation”, it’s Pete Wentz doing the speculating, who you might think should be as in tune with the future of the punky emo types as anyone, though he doesn’t seem so sure.
In a posting on his website, the Fall Out Boy bassist writes: “To make it perfectly clear. I don’t know the future of Fall Out Boy. It’s embarrassing to say one thing and then have the future dictate another. As far as I know, Fall Out Boy is on break (no one wants to say the “h” word). As much as I don’t have a solo project, I also can’t predict that I’d ever play in Fall Out Boy again. Not due to personal relationships as [such, just that] as a band we grew apart”.
He rambles on: “In this statement I’d like to include there is the possibility that FOB will play again without me or I will be a part of it when everyone is on the same page. It is no one’s fault and there is no animosity about the decision. I felt as fans you deserve to know. There is no singular reason for this. The side-projects or bands are supported by all members of the band. I am the single biggest fan of FOB and if this is our legacy, then so be it. I am proud of it”.
