As previously reported, Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz spoke about the possibly end of the band. When Wentz was asked "Can we expect a new FOB CD next year?," Wentz replied "I'm not sure. This may be the swan song. But we might have another in us. We'll see." Wentz cleared everything up with MTV News: "No, we're not calling it quits, but [we've got] no future album plans right now," he wrote in an e-mail to MTV News on Tuesday (June 23). "We can't quit, we're waiting to get fired." He also went on to say: "I think it's all in context. There aren't any new FOB songs currently because we don't write music just for the sake of it. At the same time, tomorrow maybe we will. We will stop doing FOB when it stops being fun. Currently, we're about to go out on what we think will be a really fun tour [with Blink-182]. All I meant in the [Twitter] statement is that if [Fall Out Boy's single] 'What a Catch, Donnie' was the last statement we made, I would feel content."
