And this will make 178 posts.

All I have to say is thank you for all the people who have been coming since the beginning, thank you so much. But I have sad news, fob music will be closing down, why? Because well it isn't really going anywhere, and lets face it, there is many other fall out boy fan sites out there with more success, but this isnt the end of me. I've been offered to help with another fansite, and yes it was from the artist. I wont tell you who the artist is but heres a hint "Homecoming". Thats all I will say, so even if you dont ever see this again, I still will be around.......... Talk Soon - Kevin. =]

Fall Out Boys show their recklessness side while wandering on the streets of Los Angeles in a music video for their new single, 'I Don't Care'.

Fall Out Boys show their recklessness side while wandering on the streets of Los Angeles in a music video for their new single, 'I Don't Care'.

Fall Out Boy have dropped a music video to promote their first single, "I Don't Care" from the band's fifth studio album, "Folie a Deux", which is expected to come out on November 4. The video features cameo appearances from Spencer Pratt of "The Hills", Mark Hoppus of Blink-182, and Cobra Starship's Gabe Saporta.

"It's a little bit of a satire on the rock-and-roll archetypes of being a jerk like trashing dressing rooms and being a general big, big jerk," Patrick Stump speaks of the video concept. "Because, if we're well-known for anything, it's that we're not really like that. We're not big jerks, we're just playing on that. These are all things that we would never do."

In the music video, the band members show no care for their surrounding. One of the band's members, Joe Trohman, is seen wandering in downtown Los Angeles, wearing only coat, and sometimes opening it up, showing his nudity. In another scene, Patrick snatches away a walking aid from an old man.

On the scene at Pinkapalooze with Fall Out Boy....Deeeeeelish

Last week, we put the ever so stylish FOE reporter hat on our girl Crystal Lee of CashDolla Industies. Mizz. Lee went and hung out at the Santa Monica Pier for the day to cover FOB’s performance at Victoria Secret’s Pinkapalooza. This is what she had to say :

Fall Out Boy Goes Pink
Written by Crystal Lee
(big ups to Ashley Jean for editing the story)

A known landmark and tourist attraction in California, the Santa Monica Pier, took on a new color as it hosted Victoria Secrets Pinkapalooza on Thursday July 17^th, 2008. Held by VS’ newest model Bahati Prinsloo for the launch of Victoria Secrets Pink Collegiate Collection, the pier was decked out in logos and, you guessed it, the color pink. Rides from bumper cars to the fair-sized Ferris wheel was also decorated in Pink’s infamous logo—the signature Pink dog. Festivities began around 5pm where only the first 3,000 people could expect a pink sparkling wrist band to earn them free rides and games throughout the day until 11pm. But fans who were anticipating the event’s special performance by Chicago based band, Fall Out Boy, began lining up 6 hours earlier in hopes to get the coveted barricade spot. As fans waited in a crowd all day in front of the stage, other guests took advantage of the activities Pinkapalooza had to offer. What would a launch be without so much as displaying the items Pink had to offer? Not only was the clothing displayed, but it was also available for purchase. Guests were invited to buy the Collegiate line via the back of a Pink’s RV. As the summer’s hottest tracks were spun by Danny Masterston (a.k.a. DJ Momjeans), guests competed in USC vs. UCLA rivalry games.

The main event/performance began around 9pm as Fall Out Boy took the stage the size of Vans Warped Tour main stage. Dressed in digital screens, heavy lighting—F.O.B played an array of singles for excited fans, including: “Sugar We’re Going Down”, “Dance, Dance”, “Thnks fr th mmrs”, as well as their cover of Michael Jackson’s “Beat it” and a 3 song medley which mixed artists like Akon, R. Kelly and Sonny & Cher. Although the set lasted for the span of 45 minutes, fans were long past due for a live performance. With Fall Out Boy’s latest gigs in early Spring, it was no wonder why so many people were amped, camera ready and trying their hardest to get as close to the stage as physically possible. As always, F.O.B surprised fans as bassist Pete Wentz brought out Decaydance records newest signed artist, Tyga to the stage to freestyle in the beginning of “Take Over, the Break’s Over.” No Fall Out Boy show would be complete without the signature moves of Wentz (the electric chair), or the notorious stripping of the hoodie as he stage dives into the crowd to scream along to the ever famous “Saturday.” Despite the show ended at approximately 10pm—fans and all guests took advantage of pier lighting to roam around the coast and ride until they felt sick, or until 11 o’clock marked the end of a very Pink day.

Man oh man I wish I could have been there. Ferris wheels & Fall Out Boy?? What could be better?

Everyone is (Still) Gay

Equally influenced by Nirvana and progressive politics, Cobra Starship's Gabe Saporta goes off on sexual revolutions.

By Shana Naomi Krochmal

When Out first spoke to Gabe Saporta, the lead singer of Cobra Starship, he happily gabbed about his album's queer collaborators, that time he made out with Pete Wentz, and his enduring crush on Justin Timberlake. Under all the trash talk, though, there was the tease of hard-core smarts.

We got him back on the phone for a rare serious conversation about the sexual politics behind his ridiculously fun dance-rock band, currently kicking ass on the Vans Warped Tour. Read on for more about his (and his bandmates') nudist tendencies, the musicians who most influenced his bad attitude, and how the emo scene is getting in the way of actual progress.

Out: It seems that people either respond really well to ambiguous sexuality -- or really badly.
Gabe Saporta: I totally agree. I have that problem all the time.

What problem, that people think you're a fag?
My vibe is a very sexual vibe overall -- I am very ambiguous. I like to push the boundaries on everything, from sexuality to politics. I like to just talk shit on everything: You call me on my shit, I'll call you on yours, and hopefully we'll find the truth somewhere in the middle. And I like to challenge everything, especially conventional notions of sexuality. I remember when I was 12, Nirvana played Saturday Night Live, and Kurt Cobain kissed Krist Novoselic on the air, and a lot of people were like, Oh, he's a faggot. And even being 12, I remember I understood that he was doing that to go against notions of homophobia. Some people are always going to misunderstand what you're saying. They had a song called "Rape Me" and people thought it was advocating rape, but it was really a song that was against rape. Nirvana is the band that influenced me to play music. Artists are always supposed to be able to give you a perspective outside of the social norm. It's a responsibility of ours.

What kind of reactions have you had to your, well, vibe?
No one fucks with me to my face. But I'll read shit online where kids say I'm a faggot, or my friends are. Sexuality is just something that we as a society are not comfortable talking about to begin with. And when you talk about ambiguity and sexuality, people get even more uncomfortable. I find that the people who have a hard time with it are people who are uncomfortable with their sexuality. Even within my own band, I find that. In my old band [Midtown], we all would always show each other our cocks, you know? Like, our cocks were always out. It wasn't even a homosexual thing. It was just like a bunch of good old boys showing their dicks around. Was that sexually ambiguous or was it homophobic or what? I don't know. My band now, everyone's weird about being naked. Except for me.

Your Cobra bandmate Ryland Blackinton blogged about getting called a fag by kids outside a show. What would you have done if you'd been standing there with him?
This happened to me in Belgium when we played this festival. And there were these punk rock kids -- like old-school punk rock kids that spent like three hours putting spikes on their jackets and doing their Mohawks, kids who are living like it's still 1977 but at home playing around with the computers their moms bought them, talking about revolution -- those kids were there. And on top of looking like punk rock and not getting it, they were calling us fags while we were playing. And I was like, you can't fuck with me like that. I'll just make you more of a fool. I said, "I may be a fag, but I do the fucking around here. Come on up, dude. Why don't you bend over?" A dude like Ryland, he's wittier than anything, and he'll say something back that's witty.

Everyone is (Still) Gay

(continued)
How do your fans react?
When I was growing up the acceptable homosexual ambiguity was girls making out with each other. And now kids are writing fanfiction about guys making out with each other -- that's pretty hot, that's sweet. Guys making out with each other was never considered cool or hot.

And there seem to be a thousand videos on YouTube of girls goading emo boys into making out at parties.
That's fucking awesome. I remember growing up there was this hardcore band from Florida called A New Kind of American Saint, and they had in their artwork this one dude from the band who just fucking put everyone else's dicks in his mouth! And he was totally not gay, but I thought that was so rad. And do you remember the Through Being Cool artwork by Saves the Day? Remember how it was like, where's Dave? They copied the whole thing, and at the end and it was like, oh, he's getting his dick sucked by some other dude! And also Propagandhi -- they were this super progressive band, and all these frat dudes started getting into them. There's this fucking amazing song on their second album. The lyrics in one are insane -- it's like a mosh song about being gay. I don't even think he was gay, he was just trying to scare off homophobes.

You're signed to Pete Wentz's label, Decaydance. Do you two talk about this kind of shit?
We don't talk about shit at all. Our vibe is kind of the same. We're coming from the same place. It's not about being gay or not. But I've been called a fag by homophobic kids, and then I've been called homophobic by super PC people. It's almost like you can't win on that. I consider myself to be a very liberal person. But in my view political correctness is like neo-conservatism. What modern liberalism does is make you look in the mirror and say how amazing you are. My vibe is, you should look onto a blank slate and project. It shouldn't matter what you see. It's hard for me because the emo scene is so big on how you feel -- for me, it's all bullshit. It should be about making progress, and progress can't be made if everyone's crying about how they're offended. A lot of my friends are gay, and we all call each other "fag." For me, that kind of talk is funny -- it doesn't really matter. It shouldn't matter. But some people get offended by that. I got an email saying, "I can't believe Cobra Starship is homophobic and use that kind of language." I have to be careful about what I say, because people might take it the wrong way. [Pauses] How do you feel about that kind of language?

I say "fag" way more than most people I know. But I try hard not to say it in a shitty way or ever use it as an insult.
People are so sensitive about things in our culture, so people feel like to do right by everyone else they have to walk on eggshells. And one of the things that happens is that people end up getting repressed, so you don't want to even mention that this person you know is gay, because it might be considered an insult. That just leads to weirdness, and anger, and hatred. People ask me all the time if I'm gay. And maybe if I was gay I would have more of a problem saying it. Maybe -- I don't know. If anything, I have a problem sometimes saying that I'm not gay, you know? I feel like I'm letting them down sometimes.

Everyone is (Still) Gay

(continued)
Do you think you give gay fans unfair expectations?
Yeah, like, do they feel like I'm just trying to market to them? Because I'm not. We use language and tags to make things fit into boxes. Something like sexuality isn't so easily defined by saying one thing or another. I even had this argument with my girlfriend. She works with a lot of men that later on realized they were gay. She's of the persuasion that if you make out with a dude that you're gay. I'm like, no, they're bi, or some people just like to experiment. My feeling is not that you're gay or not gay -- it's like Nirvana says, "Everyone is gay." What does that even mean, that you're gay? The fact that we try to define it as you're gay, straight or you're bi -- what is that? People don't always fit nicely into categories like that.

How do you think an out gay artist would fit into the Decaydance family?
I feel like we'd be all cool with it. I guess it depends on how the gay person is. We have a lot of gay friends, and the ones that are really out and very comfortable with it make everyone else comfortable with it. You can joke around. Part of our thing is we talk on shit on each other on everything. We'll get into shit-talking matches. We'll make fun of each other for everything -- me being an immigrant, me being Jewish, whatever. In a way, that's a very good old boy, hetero thing to do, to make fun of certain things. But hetero dudes never make fun of their sexuality -- or do they? I don't know.

Maybe not where they're the butt of the joke.
We're the butt of our jokes, hard-core, all the time. As long as that person was really out, and comfortable with themselves, and could hang with that kind of humor that we have -- then it would be OK. Our humor's really fucked up, and I love that. We make the craziest jokes.

If you weren't on Pete's label, would you worry more about what you say?
What's brought us all together is that we grew up in a very similar environment. The Academy Is... and Fall Out Boy grew up in the same scene in Chicago, and I grew up in a very analogous scene in Jersey. Pete and I definitely have a consensus. We don't talk about things, but we're coming from the same place. We had those progressive views, being influenced by the same bands. Our vibe was the same about how you make music, how you record -- very D.I.Y., play by your own rules. I've never been in a situation where I felt like I wasn't going to just do what I do. That's why I play music in the first place -- you don't have to deal with that bullshit. If you don't like it, you can go fuck yourself. If I had a regular job, I might have to think about that a little more.

Do yall remember when people said my fiance was pregnant???? What happened to that rumor????? I guess after we broke up it was just forgot about???? I’m just using that as an example of how people make up stuff and everybody runs with it. I had my own family asking me about that. Now the media is saying I’m going to anger management something or ‘nother. I have never had any conversations about anger management. If anything, I need anger enhancement!! lol! I get off the plane in Hawaii today and the world is saying my management team said blah blah blah… SIIIIIIGGGHHHH! I told the media you can’t make up lies about me because I have a media outlet myself. Oh and sidebar I don’t know if everyone has realized this yet but I don’t do interviews if there’s anything I wanna say I’ll say right here on my own blog.

Check this out…I took a quote from my rant and used it as my headline.. just like a real media outlet would… hahaha”

Tiny Rocker Wentz Sued Over Alleged Ass-Kicking

Posted Apr 30th 2008 5:14PM by TMZ Staff

Pete Wentz is being sued by a guy who claims the makeup-wearing, emo rocker and his security beat him up at a Fall Out Boy show last year.

According to a lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Andy Kallas claims he was watching the boys perform at Schuba's Tavern in Chicago, when Wentz and his peeps beat him to a pulp for several minutes. Kallas claims he suffered "serious injuries to his head, mouth and face." The way the lawsuit reads, the attack was totally unprovoked.

But here's the deal. We're told Kallas was loud, obnoxious and heckling the band before the incident.

Kallas is suing both Wentz and the club for an unspecified amount in damages.

Wentz's rep tells TMZ, "This case is meritless. We looked into it and the facts don't support his claims. We will vigorously defend this case in court. "

new cds and dvds shouldnt make an old dude like me stoked to get them the day they come out. but this one truly did (all friendships and gossip blog sexual innuendos aside). its nice to turn the bitterness down for day or two.
there are people who claim to have it all figured out. but in my opinion it is far more interesting to watch people as they figure it out.

Pete Wentz's gay denial

Jul 1, 2008, 11:30 GMT

Pete Wentz is tired of being the victim of a "gay witch hunt".

The Fall Out Boy rocker, who is expecting his first child with new wife Ashlee Simpson, insists he is happily married and only interested in women.

Pete, who has previously referred to himself as "half gay", told Out magazine: "When I'm going down the street I get called a fag all the time. I'm still getting called the same names as when I was 13.

"There's a little bit of a gay witch hunt. I don't know if it's to bust homophobia wide open or get more attention. It's like, 'This person's gay, this person's gay, this person's gay.'

"When I said that I make out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that. And I probably even made it a bigger deal than it was. The last time I experimented was probably when I was 22.

"I've always felt this relentless heterosexual drive."

Pete also laughed off rumors Ashlee's father Joe - an ordained Baptist minister - banned him from visiting the family home last year.

The 29-year-old rocker said: "That rumor was such bulls**t. We laughed about it. Joe was like, 'We should take a picture in front of the Christmas tree holding hands.'

"I know I'm going to get a reaction when I say things. I don't get on stage and give a social diatribe. I am a performer and an entertainer."

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wait! Pete last experimented at 22? But.... Didnt he make out with Gabe (Cobra Starship) like at the age of 25 - 29? Hmm...

look what cd i found at my parents house. its not the first arma demo which is nearly impossible to find (three songs and contains clips from a made for hbo movie where this redneck shoots a watermelon). but this is the second one. two songs, one of which i remember fondly.

just finished shooting the new episode of fnmtv. its pretty much a twelve hour day once a week with two six hour days practicing. yesterday, i asked an executive over at mtv how well the ratings need to do in order to keep the show on air (something i neither understand nor usually ask about). his response actually blew my mind. he said “pete, this is an important show to us because this is an important idea. ratings arent something that you should worry about.” which actually got me to understand that mtv is stepping up to the plate on this one. they didnt ask me to write about this or probably think i would after all the shit i talk. but the truth is they have never once asked me or told me to play or not play a single video- they let me and the crowd have a ton of creative control and are generally understanding about me totally fucking the show up.

i like that kanye speaks his mind.

i love the “when we left the earth” series.

Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz Says New Album May Sound Like AC/DC And White Stripes -- Or Not

2008-06-24T06:20:00.000-07:00

Hey, bloggers! Pay attention, because Pete Wentz is about to make things very easy for you.

Here's what he has to say about Fall Out Boy's new album — you know, the one that may or may not have an Iggy Pop & the Stooges-meet-the Smiths feel to it? The same one they're currently working on with producer Neal Avron? Anyway, yeah, here's how Wentz describes it. And again, we urge you to have your OMGs and WTFs at the ready.

"It's early, but the ideas we've got right now, they're really guitar-riff-heavy. A lot of other bands, like AC/DC or the White Stripes, you know their songs by the opening guitar riff," Wentz told MTV News. "So basically, I want our record to be like an AC/DC album or a White Stripes album. I want to make sure the bloggers say that. Actually, I'm just kidding about that. Well, I was kidding about the White Stripes part. Not AC/DC."

So there you go. The new Fall Out Boy record is going to be heavily influenced by the fret-shredding heroics of Jack White and Angus Young. Except that it probably won't, because, as Wentz points out, pretty much every song the band has ever written has gone through about, well, 30 different permutations. And, like he said, it's still really early.

"We've put down, like, three to four songs, but they're just ideas right now. This is how we do our songs. They go through, like, 30 changes. 'Sugar [We're Going Down]' went through 30 changes, and then it just went back to the way it was when we first started, so I don't know if these ideas we've got now will change or end up just like they are now," he explained. "Right now, we've got a bunch of great parts surrounded by a web."

And they're weaving that web at Avron's home, which has perks the average recording studio wouldn't ("He's got a trampoline built into the ground, a pool and a really awesome kid. So it's really easy to do test marketing, because if his kid says it sucks, we know it sucks," Wentz laughed). And as for how the pre-production process works? Well, Wentz is quick to explain with a "Wizard of Oz" metaphor (why not?).

"The way it works is, Patrick is kind of like Dorothy from 'The Wizard of Oz,' and we're all the supporting characters. I'm like the Tin Man, Hurley is Toto, and Trohman is definitely the Lion, because he's got big hair and he's very boisterous," he laughed. "I go over there after I leave the set of 'FNMTV,' and usually before too. Usually twice a day. Patrick is always there, working on new stuff. We keep him chained in the basement."

So when can fans expect to hear the new album? Well, Wentz said FOB hope to start recording it this summer, and that it will hopefully be in stores before the end of the year. Then again, that wouldn't be the first time he's said something like that.

"I think we're gonna start recording this summer, because it's 116 degrees in Los Angeles, and I need to be someplace with extreme air-conditioning," he said. "But I always say that, and then we screw it up, so we'll see."

Pete Wentz falls in for chicago's fashion focus.

2008-06-18T08:45:00.000-07:00

Rock star Pete Wentz (left) chats with Mayor Daley before a press conference today about an upcoming fashion event in Chicago.“Fashion Focus,” Chicago’s modest answer to New York’s famed Fashion Week, will have an injection of some much-needed celebrity come this fall.Wilmette native Pete Wentz, of the band Fall Out Boy, will see designs by his Chicago-based fashion house Clandestine Industries take front and center at Gen Art’s Sixth Annual Fresh Faces in Fashion 2008. “You’ll have to forgive me. Usually when I appear this early at a press conference it’s because I did something stupid the night before,” Wentz joked during a press conference announcing the weeklong series of events to take place around the city Oct. 1-8. Wentz told the crowd he hoped by being involved to draw attention to “Chicago burgeoning, champagne fashion market.”The runway show on Oct. 1 kicks off the fashion week, which also will include an Oct. 2 show tied to Chicago’s sister city programs entitled “World Fashion Chicago,” and a student fashion show from the Illinois Institute of Art Chicago.Many of the Chicago designers involved in “Fashion Focus” were unaware of Wentz’s forthcoming involvement and approach it with a degree of caution.“As a designer, you’re used to celebrities at the runway shows, but he’s also a designer,” Chicago designer Anna Fong said. “There is the potential that his involvement might shift focus, but any exposure is good exposure.”Melissa Gamble, who is director of fashion for the City of Chicago (the closest thing Chicago has to a fashion czarina), defends the decision to include Wentz.“Having someone like Wentz, who chose to keep Clandestine Industries here in Chicago, involved in ‘Fashion Focus Chicago 2008’ is exactly what this is all supposed to be about,” Gamble says. The mini-runway show (complete with a truncated runway) that followed the press conference gave a taste of things to come.Wentz’s Chicago-based fashion house, known for its limited edition Ts, hoodies and accessories, stood out in sharp contrast to the haute couture by other Chicago designers and houses. Additional fashions from the show are online at www.suntimes.com Wentz’s wife, singer Ashlee Simpson, watched the runway show with her father-in-law, Dale Wentz.Given the media circus that often follows Wentz and his wife, it will be no small feat if the Wentz-Simpsons don’t unintentionally steal the focus from “Fashion Focus Chicago 2008.” Photos can be found Here!Source:Suntimes

Whoa! Guess who just won the People's Choice Award for Best International Video - Group! Is anyone surprised? I actually am a bit surprised that Tokio Hotel wasn't nominated for the award...but maybe that woulda been unfair since they have a rabid online fanbase, you know? Gotta make the category a bit more competitive!So Fall Out Boy aren't at the show to accept their award but they've sent in a thank you message. Patrick Stump is amazed and appreciative of the phenomenal win. And Pete Wentz is absolutely GLOWING. And shrieking, cause as the camera pans down, he announces, "We've done this whole thing with no pants on!!" and we see that the boys are in their undercrackers! Haha. Well done, boys.

Pete Wentz - Fall Out Boy 'Itching' To New Record

2008-06-09T06:07:00.000-07:00

PETE WENTZ is desperate to release a new album with his fellow FALL OUT BOY bandmates - despite preparing to become a first time father with his new wife ASHLEE SIMPSON.

The rocker wed pop star Simpson last month (17May08) in a lavish ceremony and two weeks later, the pair confirmed they are expecting their first child.
But, according to Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump, Wentz still has music on his mind - and even on his wedding day, he and his bandmates "were like, 'We should do another record.'"
Stump adds, "The band is really not talking about a record yet, but we're all itching to do one.
"We're always writing. We've had material since (2007 album) Infinity on High dropped. So there is plenty just floating around.
"There is nothing 'hiatus' or 'indefinite' about what's going on with Fall Out Boy right now."

Ashlee Simpson confirms she's pregnant on her blog

2008-06-01T08:05:00.000-07:00

The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES -- Newlyweds Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz say they are expecting a baby.
The pop singer, who recently announced that she will be officially taking her husband's last name and performing as Ashley Simpson-Wentz, made the announcement in a statement posted on her blog.
She says there was much speculation about her pregnancy, but says she and Wentz wanted to wait until after the first trimester to publicly make the announcement.

Simpson-Wentz, 23, and Fall Out Boy bassist Wentz, 28, exchanged vows earlier this month at the Simpson family's Los Angeles-area home. Sister Jessica was the maid of honor.
The couple began dating in fall 2006 and announced their engagement April 9.

Petes Suprise To Ashley

2008-05-28T15:24:00.000-07:00

Pete hired an artist Nathan Sawaya to create a giant bumblebee for Ashlee - writes jj.com:Pete Wentz has hired artist Nathan Sawaya to create a giant bumblebee for his new wife, Ashlee Simpson.The “Lego Bee” measures 26″ x 47″ x 36″ and is made from about 18,000 standard Lego bricks. Here’s what Sawaya had to say about this pet project from Pete:“I was commissioned to create a bee. Why a bee? Because it is romantic of course. In Hindu myth, Kama, the god of love, has a bow and arrows, and the bow string is made up of bees. In the ancient Greek world the bee symbolized the soul because they migrated in swarms. And the Roman god of love, Cupid, is often pictured with bees or being stung.“I made this bee for a boy who wanted to give his girl a special wedding gift. They are a fun couple as evidenced by their Alice in Wonderland themed wedding. And didn’t Alice think she saw a bee in “Through the Looking Glass?” (Incidentally, she thought they were bees, but they turned out to be elephants. Alice wasn’t the brightest child.)”For more information on Sawaya, visit BrickArtist.com.

Ashlee flashed Pete on first date

2008-05-15T14:14:00.002-07:00

Ashlee Simpson “flashed” Pete Wentz the first time they hung out together.
The couple - who are reportedly getting married on Saturday - also revealed that they were “friends with benefits” for a long time before getting together in 2006.
Pete said: "The first time we really hung out she flashed me." Ashlee added to Us Weekly magazine: “I lifted my dress over my head but it was love at first sight.”
The Fall Out Boy rocker also revealed Ashlee couldn’t remember him after they first met so he had to email a photograph to her.
He added: "I was in the 'friend zone' with her for a good solid year. I'd be calling her and following her around like a puppy dog."
The couple announced their engagement in April and are reportedly marrying this weekend at a “top secret” location.
A source said: “Proper invites have not been sent out but guests have been given a save the date notice."
It is rumoured that Ashlee is pregnant and the couple want to make it down the aisle before the baby is born.

writing this one from our nations capitol.got the chance to go to the white house correspondence dinner last night. thanks to those that brought me out. the closest thing i can compare it to is prom if everybody was in their 30s, 40s, 80s - with of "woah whats that dude doing here?"s. im a super fan of john king, who is the guy who does all those computer predictions on cnn, so i geeked out on him. i think it creeped him out. everyone asked why go to the dinner this year with this administration? and i have to say its kind of like seeing a sweet band like poison playing a state fair and you feel like they may be out of their prime but you just kind of sneak looks at them out of the corner of your eye the whole time. besides i think the only way ill ever get invited back to the white house is if i can sneak into the jonas bros. (who are surprise suprise good dudes...) as grandpa jonas.anyway, in fob news- we are finishing touches on the beat it video. its pretty low key though there are between 25 and 50 mj references in it and most of them are pretty subtle (like you have to freeze frame scene by scene to catch them)- maybe well do a contest to see who can spot the most. anyway, im pretty stoked at how the rest of the band looks in it, i kind of find myself looking a bit bizarre not in a good way...theres a new clandestine site up over at www.clandestineindustries.comuntil soon, hopefully sooner.happy birthday patrick. pee ess im constantly talking about how bad articles are mostly through how i am paraphrased. the new issue of kerrang was a very fair piece. just wanted throw that out there. check it out if you get a chance.

coltan is a conflict diamond. the other day on the red carpet of the nme awards i wore a shirt that i made five minutes before the carpet that said "coltan is a conflict diamond". immediately everyone actually began asking me about conflict diamonds and whether ashlees ring is one.
it was actually meant to be a metaphor. coltan is not a diamond at all. a friend gave me some reading on what coltan is and what it does and the truth is it essentially is a conflict diamond that many of us, me included own. rather than bore you with poor grammar and spelling of my own, check out this piece that explains it better. the piece is a bit out dated and i will find a more recent on with new developments.
i am also beginning to speak with a group that works specifically in the congo about raising awareness on issues there.
heres the link.
as far as solutions, im not sure boycott politics will work, possibly recycling old cellphones might? i would look to engineers and people much smarter than me for the answers to that.
much of the problem is that the details on it are so murky. corporations often are fuzzy when asked where their coltan comes from. not many people know about the issue as there are clearly groups who profit off of this and it is in their best interest to not let us know where the parts from our cellphones or videogame systems are coming from.

Details on the "Beat It" Video
With Fall Out Boy's cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" a top iTunes hit, and the group's Pete Wentz saying they'll make a video to go along with it, lots of people are wondering what the video will be like. Well, we get word that the group's going all out -- with an homage to the former King of Pop's library of past videos.Casting was in full swing last week for a bunch of familiar-sounding figures, including various dancers, jump-roping girls, sumo wrestlers, nerds and "a hot Puerto Rican girl."

Ashlee IS or NOT Pregnant.

2008-04-15T15:16:00.001-07:00

Is Ashlee Simpson pregnant? And, if so, is that the reason she and Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz announced their engagement last week?Well, according to a pair of well-known gossip publications, the answer to both questions is a resounding "yes."Of course, Wentz begs to differ.In an e-mail to MTV News, he denied reports that that surfaced Monday (April 14) on the Web sites of OK! magazine and Us Weekly that he and Simpson, 23, and Wentz, 28, are expecting their first child."There is a witch hunt for people to be pregnant whenever they get engaged in Hollywood," he wrote. "This is all news to me. I can't wait for the story about how I'm really in a gay relationship and this is all just a cover. ... I mean really, this is crazy. ... I mean we're engaged, that's true, and happy about it." (read more)

just a quick update. contrary to whatever rumors you have heard we are not in the process of making a new FOB record. thats not to say it wont happen or wont happen soon, we just have alot on our plates already with the band right now. we are going in to shoot a video for our cover of "beat it" which we had never planned on doing. the support for this song has been intense and we decided a visual to go with the song is something we should contribute back after we saw you reaction to it...
anyway. thats it for now.
thanks for having our backs.
ps. there is tons of new stuff over at the clandestine store in chicago...

Fall Out Boy For New Album in the Summer.

2008-04-11T15:35:00.002-07:00

You would think, given recent events, that Fall Out Boy would be shying away from making grand proclamations. (Well, other than the "I do" kind.)
Generally, that's just not the FOB way (unless one of them is getting married to Ashlee Simpson). Despite the whole Antarctic fiasco, they're at it again, this time telling MTV News that they're planning to spend their summer vacation working on a new album, the follow-up to last year's Infinity on High and their third studio effort in less than three years."It was sort of a plan of ours to downplay the fact we are recording a new record soon. Not that we don't care or don't want people to know, but I think we were a little swamped with the press surrounding Infinity on High," guitarist Joe Trohman wrote in an e-mail. "So we wanted to slightly scale that aspect back, make it somewhat more of a surprise so that people would all of a sudden get hit with our new record one of these days."As far as when/where we are going to record, the 'when' will be sometime in the next couple of months, the 'where' will be in the Los Angeles/ Burbank [California] area, but we have not chosen an exact date to start preproduction and we have not chosen a studio," he continued. "We have talked about revisiting Ocean Studios in Burbank, where we did From Under the Cork Tree, but honestly, we haven't locked anything down. ... As far as a release date? No f---ing clue."Trohman added that while the band hasn't decided on a producer for the project, Neil Avron, who worked on both Infinity and Cork Tree, "would be present during the sessions."Though the band has yet to record a single note, the follow-up to Infinity already has a fairly long — and factually spotty — history. The album was first reported to be heavily influenced by folk music, reports the band spent much of last year trying to live down. It was then described by bassist Pete Wentz as being inspired by the "distorted, awesome riffs" of Oasis. So what's the latest take on how it will sound?"We've said time and time again that we derive our songs from many different sources. Have you ever heard Patrick [Stump] sing? There's the bulk of the R&B right there. Folk? I think that was more of a lyricism aspect, though there is something musically reminiscent in some of the demos," Trohman wrote. "The riffs I've sent to Patrick have had somewhat of an Iggy Pop feel, as he's an obsession of mine. Others [have a] somewhat Smiths-y/ late-'70s-to-early-'80s Manchester sound."Of course, FOB's summer plans could very well have changed by the time you read this. In a separate e-mail to MTV News, Wentz admitted that Fall Out Boy fully intend to hit the studio in June or July, but things could be different now, given the success of their cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It," which has quickly become a mainstay in the iTunes top 10.

(Stop, Pete said on falloutboy.com That there will be no new album YET, Sorry to burst your bubble.)

Children in New York City are crazy. They don't go to school, they don't play sports-they just spend their time attacking famous people. We had a little chat with Pete Wentz over the weekend, and while we were mid-convo, a pack full of rabid children smelled his presence and proceeded to chase him down. Watch the carnal footage unfold right here. Be warned: this may make you think twice about messing with the pg-13 and under crowd.

Fob is having a small roles in the upcoming Steh Green comedy 'Sex Drive'. This past Wednesday I was an extra in the upcoming Seth Green movie, "Sex Drive" (currently it has the title "Untitled Teen Road Movie" but it's more than likely being changed to "Sex Drive") and in my scene, Fall Out Boy was there. Pete also has a few speaking lines. They performed "Fame < Infamy," "Thnks Fr Th Mmrs" and a short cover of "Don't Matter" by Akon - A visitor to the set

Fall Out Boy And Dabel Brothers For Comics Project

2008-02-16T06:16:00.000-08:00

Fall Out Boy Teams With Dabel Brothers For Comics Project

Best known for their literary adaptations, the Dabel Brothers will be taking a step in a new direction later this year as they develop a new project with the band Fall Out Boy. As fans of the band and comics know, drummer Andy Hurley is a lifelong comics fan and frequent convention attendee. Hurley will be heading the project, along with bassist Pete Wentz.
The project was negotiated by Dabel Brother’s Business Director Rich Young who explained the origins of the project to Newsarama, saying: “Les [Dabel] and I had conversation early part of last year when we were brainstorming about new project ideas. I told him that I'd always wanted to work with a popular band that was into comics, and gave him a very short list,” Young says. “Fall Out Boy was on that list and so I started making inquiries.”Shortly thereafter, the two parties were talking, Young says. And though the publishers are best known for comic book adaptations of fantasy literature such as Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake and George R.R. Martin’s The Hedge Knight, Young explains that the opportunity of working with Fall Out Boy is something that Dabel Brothers had been looking for.“Our publishing plan is to continue doing the projects we're known for – working with well-known literary authors, but also to start branching out and diversifying our publishing line up by working with licensors in the music, tv, film, and interactive industries,” Young says, noting that the pairing with Fall Out Boy most likely won’t be the only project they will be doing with a band or musical artist.The finished project will consist of many stories told over the course of two, perfect bound 56-64 page issues due to hit stores in the third of fourth quarter of this year. As for art, Young says that a collection of artists will be pitching in, most notably, Dan Fraga.“Dan’s got a relationship with Pete Wentz, and Pete specifically requested him to come on board, so we got him,” Young says. “We're looking at a few other artists as well, as there will be multiple stories. We'd also like to add all the images so far [as seen with this article] were done by Jeremy Treece who has been doing some really great work for us at Dabel Brothers Publishing. He will probably be attached to the project in some capacity.Young says that the books will ship via Diamond, and that the Dabels are also looking at other avenues to get the book out to the band’s fans. “Whether or not we place additional copies of the issues elsewhere, or do any exclusive editions, remains to be seen,” Young says. “The collection will be distributed via Del Rey/Random House into the bookstore market.“We'll be putting out another update in the near future with more information on the project, so check back with us on our web site. We think the project has a lot of potential...“Also, I should mention Rebecca Cairns at Clandestine Industries, who has been absolutely fantastic to work with and a crucial part in getting pretty much of aspect of this project in motion.”

This Is Where I Need Help.

It always starts..

To hurt when you stick things up there. I'm starting a fresh day some new typings. I've been told my eight finger technique was so good that I had to bring my real life/cyber real flavor back to these very streets, . For those who believed in my skills, who had been there when I slayed 75 Great Whites in typershark, leading the scuba diver to the treasure every time, I commend you. For the rest of you, you know where to fuck off to. You know what to shove and where to shove it. And for knowing, I think I can finally accept your sincerest apologies. Thank You.

Movies, movies, movies. Where are all the good movies? They're bound for the Academy Awards, or as some might call them, cancelled. But I find myself geared towards movies of a different calibre. Here are my "favorite" movies, and how they completley changed my life, FOREVER.

Cloverfield - Even though writer Drew Goddard didn't seem very comfortable admitting what he had once said, that he can sych up 'infinity on high' with 'cloverfield', I'm not the least bit ashamed to admit I threw up during that film. And not just because the monster had inflating/deflating testicles on the side of his head, or that the acting was soooooo fucking amazing.Rambo - Maybe America is falling into the shitter faster than the aftermath of an Arby's 5 for 5 deal, but Rambo still knows how to take American values, shove them right up the Burmese military's collective ass and rip out a bloody, yet beautiful, American flag every time. There were at least 3 crying babies in the theater with me. More babies NEED to see this movie. And more people forget what it feels like to have the surge of America throb in the palm of their hands, and only Stallone has the necessary equipment to make it possible.

Puppies Are Cute: A Special Message to Danielle - I love indie flicks. This is a movie that really documents the ability one has to profess an undying love for a complete stranger (via MySpace), and not skip a beat. Hey there Sundance and Cannes, where in the wide world of fuck were you on this one? Click the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=igQLmLG0MGU

So there is this rumor going around saying that pete and ashley left hemmy in the car while going to shop at target. I think this is all BULLCRAP, pete would'nt leave hemmy in the car, He loves him to death! Its surprising what people do these days just to get money for s**t talking. For all we know it could have been at a red light when they took the pic, Or it could have been croped. Damn people these days.
