The FOB bassist knows exactly how you are supposed to do album promo in 2018...
Fall Out Boy bassist and emo icon Pete Wentz had a live chat with fans last night (January 22nd) from a very unexpected location - his bath.
Pete had first hinted at the possible bubble-based event all the way back in 2011, making a promise that if he ever hit 3m Twitter followers, he would set up a camera direct from the tub:
if i ever hit 3 million followers im gonna livestream a bubble bath and answer questions. so weird.

Well, it may have taken him 7 years or so, but Pete finally came through.
Yep, in celebration of FOB's (very enjoyable) new album MANIA, Pete fired up a purple bathbomb and alerted his followers to join him for a chat in an event that shall henceforth be known throughout history as #FallOutBath.
this is happening soon, but replacing the bubbles w/ the purple M A N I A bath bomb #FallOutBath https://t.co/6P3667ZLGA
