Pete Wentz knows as much as you do about the Hella Mega tour’s status

Green Day, Weezer and Fall Out Boy sent shockwaves across the internet when they announced their Hella Mega tour back in September. Unfortunately due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the first leg of the tour was postponed in Asia this past February.

Now, Fall Out Boy‘s Pete Wentz is giving an update on the tour’s upcoming dates in the U.K., Europe and U.S. this summer and Australia in November.

Speaking with NME, Wentz revealed that up until the COVID-19 pandemic, Fall Out Boy were hard at work getting everything prepped for the stadium tour.

“Two weeks before quarantine began, we got together and rehearsed our set with our staging,” he says. “Our video and our lights because it’s a stadium, so you can’t just do it the week before.”

Unfortunately, Wentz and everyone else involved are now unsure if the tour will continue as planned this year.

“Now it’s like we’re circling waiting to land,” he reveals. “Nobody knows anything and it’s hard because we really want to do this tour.”

Despite the possibility of having to reschedule the tour, all three bands are still determined to make it happen. However, Wentz shared that conflicting schedules and the logistics behind rescheduling a stadium tour could make things difficult.

“It was a hard thing to orchestrate because there are three bands,” he says. “You have to figure out who’s doing what and everyone had to really want to do it.”

For now, the remaining dates are still scheduled to go on as planned. However, Wentz did share that he is unsure about what could happen over the next few months.

“I know as much as you do about what’s going to happen with it.”

Along with his Hella Mega tour update, Wentz revealed this week his plans to potentially release more solo music. After debuting his catchy spoken word track “Check Your Phone” with Cheap Cuts, he said in an interview with NME that he has been working on even more solo material while in quarantine.

Wentz has also been keeping busy during quarantine in other ways. His recent social media Fall Out Boy performance using action figures will hopefully tide some of us over while we wait for more information on the Hella Mega tour.
