Fall Out Boy have apparently changed the imagery and posters for their ongoing Young Wild Things Tour after similarities between the imagery and the artwork of Maurice Sendak. Sendak is best known for his work on Where the Wild Things Are, a classic 1963 children's book boasting iconic artwork and due to be made into a feature film by Spike Jonze.

The band explained:

As you may have seen in our most recent concerts, we've changed the staging and visuals. We were using Where The Wild Things Are and, unintentionally, infringed on the rights of Maurice Sendak, the author of this timeless classic. We have great respect and affection for his book and it was our intent only to pay homage to it, not to infringe any rights. FOB sincerely apologizes to Maurice Sendak for using images from Where The Wild Things Are in our concerts and elsewhere without authorization.

This isn't the first time the band has found itself accused of borrowing ideas; the band previously settled with Wes Eisold of American Nightmare. On the other hand, in the reverse situation, the band has been much less forgiving and reacted quite harshly when their album was misappropriated.
