Tour Details
To support their March 2023 album, So Much (for) Stardust, Fall Out Boy hit the road on their So Much For (Tour) Dust tour. The pop-punk quartet traveled through North America last summer before heading out to the UK, Europe and Asia last fall and winter. The 2024 tour leg returned to North America for 23 dates, and the name of the trek was tweaked to So Much For (2our) Dust. FOH engineer Chad Olech has mixed the band since 2014 using DiGiCo consoles, starting with the SD5. Monitor mixer Rob Smuder joined in 2018. Olech’s Quantum5 and a pair of SD-Racks with 32-bit mic pre’s, connect across an Optocore network loop with Smuder’s Quantum7 console at monitors.
