Fall Out Boy Tickets - See A Rising Band Live


Fall Out Boy tickets may be relatively new to the overall music performance market, but this band has already garnered a loyal following of millions around the world, and their upcoming 2007 tour is one of the most anticipated musical events of the year. Fall Out Boy comes together with several unique qualities in terms of how they put their music together, and their resulting sound is also completely unique. Below we''ll take a look at how the band came together, how far they have come and where they could be headed in relation to the musical pantheon.

Early Beginnings

The band was formed in the affluent Chicago suburb of Wilmette in 2001, and the members, Patrick Stump (lead vocals, guitar), Pete Wentz (bass, backup vocalist, and primary lyricist), Joe Trohman (lead guitar), and Andy Hurley (drums) were friends who knew each other based on their common musical interests.

Fall Out Boy got their start like most bands - they began to jam together in their respective garages, and as soon as they had refined their sound, they began to play at local clubs. Their venue of choice in their early days was the local Knights of Columbus Hall, and they''ve since shot videos there to pay tribute to their roots.

The band quickly garnered a loyal local following, and it wasn''t long before Fall Out Boy tickets were in demand in Chicago. As a result of their growing influence, they got together to release their debut album on a small label, Uprising Records, entitled Fall Out Boy''s Evening Out With Your Girlfriend, which was released in 2002. The release was an EP, and it sold relatively well.

Commercial Appeal

The band released their first full-length album in 2003, after they put out a full-length version of their first EP, and it garnered even more notice, to the point that they signed a recording contract with Island Records. They achieved immediate commercial success with Island, as their first album under the label, From Under the Cork Tree, released in 2005, went double platinum.

Their most recent release, Infinity on High, released in February of 2007, immediately shot up to the top of the US charts. The band''s fast but precision-laden pop punk sound is already influencing other bands, and Fall Out Boy tickets will allow you to see an act that''s only going to continue to rise among the list of stars in the music world as they continue to hone their skills.
