Stump confirms Fall Out Boy on indefinite hiatus
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 4 February 2010
Following Pete Wentz’s online ramblings in which he said he wasn’t sure what the future held for Fall Out Boy, now the outfit’s frontman, Patrick Stump, has formally declared he is no longer in the band. Well, for now anyway. He’s too “psyched” by his solo work you see.
He told Spin.com: “I’m not in Fall Out Boy right now… I’m really not worried about Fall Out Boy. I’m so psyched about where I’m at right now, recording this solo album. Whether we play again or not, I don’t know. If we do, it will be for the right reasons. If we don’t, it will also be for the right reasons”.
He added: “One way or another, the band will always be around. Steven Tyler isn’t in Aerosmith anymore, but his gravestone will [still] probably say something about Aerosmith”. Yeah, I’d be careful what you say Stumpy, I’m not sure Mr Tyler’s lawyer would agree with the first half of that sentence.
