After Trohman got out of school, he played in various bands, until 2001. Appearances Joe Trohman made an appearance on MTV's Cribs. He had shown MTV what the tour bus looked like during the Honda Civic Tour Pets Joe on his apperence on MTV's Cribs states that Joe has pug named Sukka. But truthfully, Sukka, alothough adorible was just for show. Joe has a cat and is extremly close with Pete Wentz's dog, Hemingway. Career In 2001, Trohman formed the band Fall Out Boy along with close friend Pete Wentz. Each had been active in the Chicago hardcore scene and Joe had filled in as a bassist during a tour with Wentz' band Arma Angelus. Joe met Patrick Stump in a Borders Bookstore,[1] and after bonding over a mutual interest in the band Neurosis, he convinced Stump to audition for the band.[2]. Two other Chicago musicians were recruited; T.J. Raccine on guitar and a drummer simply credited as Mike. These two only participated for a very short time. The subsequent addition of drummer Andy Hurley completed the current quartet. Equipment Trohman has used many guitars during his career. In the Take This To Your Grave days, he was seen using the Gibson Les Paul guitars. During From Under The Cork Tree, Joe mainly used Fender Telecasters.
