Fall Out Boy -
Band history Beginnings — 2001-2003
Trohman and Wentz met each other through
mutual involvement in the Chicago
hardcore punk scene. The two decided
to start a band that was different
than their hardcore punk roots, and
more similar to bands they listened
to growing up such as Green Day and
Saves the Day. In 2001, Trohman met
Stump at a convention bookstore. Trohman
later introduced him to Wentz. Stump
originally auditioned to be the band's
drummer, but became the singer instead,
although he had no prior experience
as a singer. While still unnamed,
the band asked the audience at a college
show what their band should be called,
and an audience member yelled out
"Fallout Boy," the name
of superhero Radioactive Man's sidekick
on the animated TV show The Simpsons.
The band claims that, at the time,
they were unaware of the character.
They do spell the name "fall
out" differently than the character,
the original Fallout Boy's name refered
to nuclear fallout.
Lead singer and guitarist Chris
Envy of Showoff (formerly on Maverick
Records) briefly joined the band
in 2002 when the other member's
of Showoff broke off to create The
Fold [1].
