[12ayis29]

Joe grew hair... while Pete cut off his awesome hair.. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT PETE? WHY? YOU HAVE INCREDIBLY GORGEOUS HAIR WHICH MAKES YOU HOTTER.

[mrbuddha2026]

He uses Squire Telecasters? That just proves that you don't need all that pricey stuff to sound good.

[FabulousKilljoy917]

Ok so, like, I'm happy that everyone in FOB is doing alright but they just don't seem HAPPY like they used too:l I mean they don't seem whole, they seem empty:( . And if they don't get back together I'm gonna kick their asses}:( .... but I do love 'em though:)

[iamnotfatimfluffy]

notice they put fall out boy second lol 

[cockmongrelful]

Joe is seriously like the most adorable man ever.

[jmatotek216]

no homo...his eyes are amazing

[fenderer5]

he looks like Jesus

[Michaeljackson450]

[zequizavala]

what is that squier guitar called? cant find it..

[bigbadgsy]

@zequizavala it's a Squier Telecaster - Joe Trohman model it was only released on 13th September, picked mine up yesterday : )

[heinygore2]

@bigbadgsy please make a video of it if you can!

[Keiren216]

what happened to Washburn :o

[Keiren216]

people should just stop talking about FOB here. Its a new band with new songs, stop comparing it to something that doesnt exist anymore. i love fob but its getting too much...

[Aphizzle15]

man i remember when joe had short hair and was starting to grow it out, i miss FOB so badly

[humantorch1993]

what is that squier guitar called? cant find it..

[fubatsu1632]

@humantorch1993 Squier Telecustom.

[TheBryanlp]

@humantorch1993 it was custom made for him but its based of a telecaster deluxe

[GrantMills246]

@humantorch1993 Its a custom model made for him

[tabotabojayar]

i never knew fall out boy are using dimarzios.....

[DudeSkates3419]

1:03 Jesus?

[ralfcaetano]

does this mean that squier is working on a new squier tele deluxe guitar or new finishes for the tele custom? or could it be a a signaure model? *hint hint* ;)

[VictoryFire88]

Joe is so awesome! His hair is so pretty! I want to comb it! lol xp o I'll stop sounding creepy now. lol

[Goth3m3]

You should put the voice in Mono.

[maribrawl]

the damned things sounds like the kind of band joe troham really wanted to be in

[aditsetan]

he moved to the damned things because he thinks that poppunk's getting fag, so he start to play hard rock

[greendaythebeatles]

@aditsetan actually, I think that it's because that Joe was a metalhead growing up, and the only reason he's not in a hardcore band right now is because he wanted to do something poppier at the time. Anthrax is his favorite band, and the fact that he had the balls to jam with them is enough for me to go to one of their shows.

[FunnyLittleNightmare]

Dude, that's the most i've ever seen him talk... like ever. lol I really like the damned things! I was suprised cuz I wouldn't usually go for this style... It might be because this is the first band I've heard in this style that actually has decent lyrics and a decent singer...

[ilovefobandavril]

yeah, he is hot. I love Joe haha

[TheFurpus]

hes finally earned my resepct

[soulathenas]

chicks undestand fallout bpoy passed away like two years ago, thay've already ledt behind that scene in wich they just where placed like in teenager music. Now if you are really fans of them and want to give a little bit of support you will respect theirs decition, wich in my oppinion is by far now the best pick cos please this situation is AWESOME! spotlight is a cool song too and i'm sure pete is ok with all his business

[Goth3m3]

I think Joe is extremely underrated. Yes he was in Fall out boy (Though I actually like them) But he's so much more than power chords.

[fobpanicfan13]

@Goth3m3 Honestly, everyone says Pete started FOB. No. Joe did, because Joe introduced Pete to Patrick, and Patrick brought in Andy(I believe, on that part atleast.) Joe is VERY underrated, yet he has so much to offer. He's an amazing guitarist, and he rocks so much more than just power chords.

[lazyrobot47]

@fobpanicfan13 Joe and Andy knew each other through the hardcore/metal scene in the area.

[ruffles272]

his name sounds a lot like john bonham and he almost looks like john bonham

[Esparoba1]

Didn't he have a signature Washburn guitar ??? what's up with that ? he left Washburn for Squier ? kinda weird

[xShinyBlueGuitarx]

awesome interview :] but I didn't like the "fall out boy stopped being a band..." part ;_;

[SidVicious10101]

Why does this man use Squier?!?! I'm not a fall out boy fan, but why on earth is he using squier? He could use fender if he wanted to.

But I do like the damned things better then fall out boy.

[Janesch]

@SidVicious10101 maybe because he likes those guitars? I have an old Yamaha Pacifica, which isn't worth a buck, but the cheap singlecoil in the neck sounds just incredible.

[TheHoodedDemon]

@Janesch that and he doesn't have the original single coil pickups on this which probably helps

[YummyBananaFish]

@SidVicious10101 Guitars can surprise you. My Strat copy is great but my more expensive guitars can be such a hassle.

[greendaythebeatles]

@SidVicious10101 he's used fender, look at the videos for sugar were goin down or dance dance those are fenders. but this squier isn't on the market. it could be a signature that hasn't been released yet.

[BassAdams6661]

@SidVicious10101 Have you ever played a newer Squier? Hell, the 2010 Affinity cheap series are actually surprisingly good.

Hell, the Classic Vibe Squiers are a lot better than Mexican Made Fenders.

[Jadguitare]

Cool interview

[ibanezbloke]

I wonder why he uses Squire intruments. Maybe its in keeping with the punk idiom, but he can afford a fender, he would probably be given them if he asked.

Still, he seems happy to be doing his own thing, good on him.

[DEANVX93]

@ibanezbloke because there are some really good squire guitars out there

[greendaythebeatles]

@ibanezbloke dude, that squier isn't available on the market. maybe it's like his signature model.
