Has Fall Out Boy Called It Quits?!

Sad news for the music world today. Fall Out Boy members have spoken out the future (or lack thereof) of the band. Check out what guitarist Pete Wentz posted on his blog:
"i dont know the future of fall out boy...as far as i know fall out boy is on break...as much as i dont have a solo project, i also cant predict that id ever play in fall out boy again. not due to personal relationships as much as a band we grew apart. in this statement id like to include there is the possibility that fob will play again with out me or i will be a part of it when everyone is on the same page. it is no ones fault and there is no animosity about the decision...i am the single biggest fan of fob and if this is our legacy than so be it. i am proud of it."
Wowza! And lead singer Patrick Stump echoed the same emotions. "I'm not in Fall Out Boy right now," he explains. "One way or another, the band will always be around."

Is Fall Out Boy Over For Good?

After reports that Fall Out Boy was simply on hiatus, singer Patrick Stump and Pete Wentz both put out statements saying the band may be done for good.
Though Pete had been adamant about saying the band was just taking a break and wouldn't put out new music until they felt motivated and ready, things have changed. Pete posted this statement on his blog:
"I don't know the future of Fall Out Boy. It's embarrassing to say one thing and then have the future dictate another. As far as I know Fall Out Boy is on break. (No one wants to say the "h" word). As much as I don't have a solo project, I also can't predict that I'd ever play in Fall Out Boy again. Not due to personal relationships as much as a band we grew apart. In this statement I'd like to include there is the possibility that fob will play again with out me or I will be a part of it when everyone is on the same page. It is no one's fault and there is no animosity about the decision. I felt as fans you deserve to know. There is no singular reason for this. The side projects or bands are supported by all members of the band. I am the single biggest fan of fob and if this is our legacy than so be it. I am proud of it."
Patrick stressed the same fact, saying he is not a member of Fall Out Boy at this time. "Whether we play again or not, I don't know," he says. "If we do, it will be for the right reasons. If we don't, it will also be for the right reasons."
Patrick is currently working on a solo project, while Pete has been concentrating on his clothing line and record label, and he just collaborated with Blink 182's Mark Hoppus on a song for the Almost Alice soundtrack.

Taylor Swift Wins Album of the Year at the 2010 Grammy Awards!

"When we're 80 years old, and we're telling the same stories over and over to our grandkids, and they're so annoyed with us, this is the story we're going to be telling over and over again," Taylor said during her acceptance speech. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Nominated for eight Grammys, Taylor took home four -- she also won Best Country Album, Best Female Vocal Country Performance, and Best Country Song ("White Horse").
 Beyonce also won big -- she set a record by being the first female performer to nab six statues in one Grammy night, including Song of the Year for "Single Ladies". B also surprised the audience by telling her husband, Jay-Z, "I love you," during her acceptance speech. The singer rarely acknowledges their marriage in public, and even Jay-Z looked shocked afterwards!
See which of your other fave artists won Grammys last night after the jump.

Hot Band Alert: The Audition

TheAudition.jpg
J-14 is scouting out the hottest bands around... and this week's pick is The Audition!
Here are five things you need to know about The Audition, whose new album, Great Danger, drops March 16!
1. Drummer Ryan O'Connor was a founding member of Chicago-based The Audition back in 2003. After a few changes, the band is now made up of Ryan, lead singer Danny Stevens (who originally joined the band to play guitar!), guitarist Seth Johnson, and bassist Tim Klepek. Ryan says their name comes from playing live shows. "It's basically an audition for people to enjoy our music or fall in love with the band," he explains. "It kind of fit what we're doing."
2. The Audition is currently on the road with The Dangerous Summer, Sparks The Rescue, and The Right Coast as part of The Revolutions and Resolutions tour. The shows run through February 19.
3. "You Ruined This" is the first single off Great Danger. "It's the story of a girl not being fully honest and hiding things," Ryan tells J-14. "It destroyed the relationship in the end because she was too scared to tell the truth."

4. Think The Audition only listens to fellow rockers? Sure, Ryan tweeted that he was listening to Motion City Soundtrack, but he's also got Ke$ha's debut album on repeat and the band hung out with rapper DMX in North Carolina!
5. The guys are majorly crushing right now! Ryan loves Natalie Portman, Danny's into Taylor Swift, Seth's gossiping about Michelle Trachtenberg, and Tim's waiting for Valentine's Day so he can see his crush, Jessica Alba.
Check out The Audition here and on tour!
