Fall Out Boy were one of the few bands to perform at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade (Nov. 28), since, well, it's not exactly easy to play an instrument on a moving float when it's freezing out, since your hands get chilled and trying to manipulate guitar strings presents a problem at times.
Congrats to Fall Out Boy. The foursome mounted a massive comeback campaign earlier this year and just knocked Hayley Williams' Paramore out of the top slot of the Billboard Top 200 chart.
If you've never seen the movie 'This Is Spinal Tap,' then Fall Out Boy's performance of 'My Songs Know What You Did on 'Conan' last night probably made little-to-no-sense to you. The Chicago band recreated a scene from the 1984 mockumentary when the Spinal Tap bassist, played by Harry Shearer, got trapped in a theatrical pod that the band was using on stage.
Mere days after bassist Pete Wentz told a reporter from the Chicago Tribune that rumors of a Fall Out Boy reunion were false, singer Patrick Stump teased the crowd at the band's Monday (Feb. 4) comeback gig. "I told you we were gonna come back! Why didn't you believe me?"
In recent days, rumors have circulated that Fall Out Boy would be reuniting for a performance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' but they're actually gearing up for a full-blown comeback, with a summer tour, a new album, and a new single! Like most classic Fall Out Boy tunes, this one has a ridiculously long title: 'My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark (Light Em Up).'
