Fall Out Boy sets club dates ahead of 'Deux'

After apparently setting a new Guinness world record for radio interviews, Fall Out Boy has revealed a few dates in support of the band's forthcoming new studio effort.

The band's Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz set the new world record for "Most Interviews On Radio In a 24 Hour Period By A Pair of Two"--which still must be verified by Guinness before it becomes official--by conducting 72 radio interviews in 24 hours last week, besting the previous mark of 57 radio stations in 24 hours, set in May.

The group previously attempted to set a different Guinness record earlier this year by performing live on all seven continents within nine months, but failed when bad weather forced the cancellation of the scheduled record-breaking gig in Antarctica.

Inclement weather will probably not be a problem for the band when it kicks off a four-city outing Nov. 6 in suburban Boston. The group will also hit Philadelphia (11/7), Seattle (12/4) and Denver (12/6) on the trip, which the band is calling a "small club run" on its website. Details are below.

The December shows will come just a few days ahead of the Dec. 16 release of "Folie a Deux," the band's third album for Island Records and fifth overall. The set, which reportedly features guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Pharrell, Panic at the Disco and Blondie's Debbie Harry, was originally scheduled for release Tuesday (11/4) before the group decided not to compete with Election Day for the public's attention.

"Six months ago we thought it would be a fun idea to release our album on election day but this is not the election to be cute," the band said in a press statement. "We felt as though rather than making a commentary we were only riding the wave of the election. This seemed less and less like what we intended to do and more of a gimmick."

The new set follows last year's "Infinity on High," which was the group's first No. 1 album in the US, and spawned a pair of Top 10 singles in "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" and "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs."
