Pete Wentz Crushes Foot, Rocks On

Pete Wentz may want to rechristen his band Fall Down Boy after this.

The Fall Out Boy frontman suffered a broken foot during a particularly animated performance at New Orleans' Voodoo Festival Sunday night.

However, despite the self-inflicted ped impediment, the "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" rockers will not be canceling any shows, thus sparing legions of emo fans from shedding any more unnecessary tears.

The 28-year-old revealed the injury in a posting on his FriendsorEnemies.com blog Monday under the heading, "i've got good news and bad news, which do you want to hear first?"

"for anyone who was at the voodoo fest in new orleans-you got to see me jump around," the capitalization-averse rocker wrote under the user name Clandestine, the same name as Wentz's clothing label. "ended up breaking the bone that connects my shin to my foot. no shows will be cancelled."

Lest fans not take Wentz at his injured word, Ashlee Simpson's other half also posted a photo of his bruised, swollen and desperately-in-need-of-a-pedicure foot.

"i am currently trying to get a 'rocker' boot so i can have a walking cast," he wrote. "currently my foot is the size of a small car. if you see me at a show come sign my cast."

Fans will have plenty of opportunities to make their mark. Fall Out Boy's has two dozen dates remaining on its Young Wild Things North American tour.

After a one-night reprieve from touring, the Wentz-fronted group is due back on stage in Jacksonville, Florida, Tuesday.

The quartet, supported by fellow teen-friendly rock groups Gym Class Heroes and Plain White T's, wraps up the tour Dec. 2 in Las Vegas.

good on him for keeping on touring.

[GeekStinkBreath]

Well isn't this article just chalk full of searing assery.

[schecter_guy]

this article was obviously written by a metalhead.

[webbtje]

Aww. Hopefully they'll replace him.

I dislike Fall Out Boy just as much as the next person, but for the love of god get the genre at least somewhat close and try to also write an unbiased article for once.

[duncang]

Terrible ****ing writing, whoever this was. Don't be so biased you idiot.

[Xeus]

i dont like the band, but good him!

[Serjem]

ahahahahaahah

[tasty licks]

ahahahahahaa I came on just to see all the "I wish his gay head exploded cuz hes so gay and emo sucks. fall out gay!!"....etc and its like the third post down! haha UG never lets me down. Oh and as for the article, this is typical standout journalism around here. So unbiased and well written.... :p

oh and..

btw guys the writer isn't from ug, he's a yahoo news character.

Luckily Fall Out Boy isn't fronted by Pete but by Patrick Stump. I agree with everyone who says this is an awful writer but disagree with all the FOB bashing. If you can't admit you like them then you are a closet fan imo, why else read all the FOB artcles?

I actually agree

The article wasn't written by UG or by a contributor to UG, it was lifted directly from Yahoo News, if any of you armchair quarterbacks would bother actually clicking on the link. So work on those reading comprehension skills before bashing the website. kthxbai.

Checked.

[silentdob]

Umm... Pete "Lightning" Wentz (bass forum thing)is the bassist, not frontman...

Also, If you ask me, Wentz is alot more hardcore than alot of musicians. Most would just complain and quit the tour over a broken anything. And no, Im not a FOB fan.

[Nebblacktip]

I don't care for fallout boy, but I am impressed by the fact he's still touring. Shows a level of class that seems to be missing now a days (I'm looking at you Axl Rose.) Get well soon dude, so I don't feel bad making fun of you anymore. ^.^

[red157]

I should have realised it wasn't written by UG, wasn't kissing the ass of the band for once. Really funny article/news thing. Of course the journo knows Pete isn't the frontman, it was a play on the fact he's the main member. Hell even FOB have made that joke.

[imthehitcher]

if only he could have broken his something more serious os the tosser could leave us alone!

the capitalization-averse rocker

some one tell me how the **** anyone in fall out boy is 'adverse to capitisation'?

wtf

when the writer said capitalization-averse he was pointing out that pete wentz doesn't capitalize stuff he writes on the internet.

[CJRocker]

I don't like Fall Out Boy, but good for him to keep on touring. I kinda liked how it was written. Made me chuckle.

[guitar_freak523]

gee i dont know how anyone could continue playing bass...with a broken foot i mean wow

[guitarguy421]

great article, keep up the good work

lol Petey played so fast he pulled a lightning strike on the lighting mech and caused it to fall on his foot

And the bass is pretty heavy on one foot...

FOB isn't pop-punk lol..there's far more musical talent in pop-punk..

big deal he broke his foot and kept touring..travis barker broke his arm for crying out loud and kept touring..last i checked you NEED those to play drums..

Terrible joke

Yeah, I was about to say...

Hardcore? This kid never struck me as that. He seems to just like eating up the fame right now. It's good of him to keep touring, but I've never got impression he was hardcore. And where'd he get the name "Lightning." To be honest, I've never really seen him play fast or complicated. Any song I've ever heard was just strict simple bass lines. It fit for the songs, so it works, but it didn't seem to have an lightning qualities. Can somebody go to my profile and drop me a link demonstrating this?

[bradwhiteuk]

Emo sucks, but fair play to the man. Having said that tho, you have to remember he's gettin paid alot of money to play these gigs.

[_A.D.I.D.A.S._]

Well, at least hes not canceling shows. These comments would be about how much of a wuss or w/e he is.

Though this ain't so special. Many musicians break a limb or something and they still play. Taking James Hetfield for example (first one popped in my head). He burned his arm in a freak accident and he just improvised by hiring a temp guitarist and continued to sing. But kudos to him for not canceling a show.

[sucay]

hilarious

[_A.D.I.D.A.S._]

Oh and this article wasn't by UG for cryin out loud! It was by Yahoo!

[kaptink]

he won't die!

Seriously though I hope he can carry on.

[Kinderfeld]

"...sparing legions of emo fans from shedding any more unnecessary tears." Wow. That's not biased... I'm an emo fan, and Fall Out Boy isn't emo... Good to see the band won't cancel any shows, though.

[Mojo89]

fukkk why did he have to keep touring. what a shame.

I don't know the offical definition of emo. I know every one is all senseitive about it. My opinion is if your whining about not getting girls rather than pouring your heart out like idk say Eric Clapton, Your a disgrace. No one wants to hear about "where is your boy to night" no offense but come on man these guys need to grow a sac.

Checked.

[Carl6661]

okay so i hate FOB and pete wentz, but i gotta give him credit for continuing the tour!

The Fall Out Boy frontman suffered a broken foot

i thought patrick stump was the frontman,

and i hope someone hides his pain killers

i wish he would have crushed his face instead.

You know...i've gained a bit of respect for old pete...seems like he's not as self obsessed as i thought

That's the frontman, just because you aren't the lead singer doesn't mean you can't be the frontman. iron Maiden's bass player Steve Harris is their frontman, and Gene Simmons is KISS' frontman.

[icekold23]

I would have been pissed if they canceled any shows. I don't think Joe will run around because he'll look like idiot by himself so who knows they might put on a hell of a live show. Buts it's all good i mean this is the Pete I used to know until he turned into "OMG, PETE WENTZ".

telec77smb wrote:

This one made me laugh. I heart retarded people.

That article was ridiculously biased. I despise Fall Out Boy but I have to at least admire Pete Wentz for continuing the show after breaking his foot. This article makes a mockery of the whole thing.

[riceranger12345]

..... he stubbed his toe
big deal

[the.spine.surfs]

I admire anyone who plays shows with injuries.

I give him a lot of credit.. doesn't anybody know how much it hurts to have broken the bone between your foot and your ankle?? It's almost physically impossible to put weight on it.

[Pooker0316]

This article goes south from the beginning when in the title is implies that Pete Wentz "rocks"

[in*limbo]

OK! 1. He's not the ****ing frontman!!! ****ing hell!
2. Its kinda a shame, even tho i dnt like him.
3. LOL!

nah they a kool band

[Mojo89]

ha this is great like every 13 th post or so is a supporter and the rest of us just bashing him hahaha

[flambe chicken]

just because he isn't the singer, doesn't mean he isn't the frontman. think about it - he is the main face of their publicity and the main role in most of their videos.

[benco]

So I'm just gonna say it...

I like fallout boy. So what? Am I a LOL EMO GO 2 HELLZ!11 now?

I think this article is terribly written, they can't even get their facts straight. Pete is bassist, they arent an emo band.

[in*limbo]

Once you get past the hilarity of it actually. this article is possibly the worst written thing on UG. come on. sack this guy! actually on second thoughts dont, he made me laugh.

[x X t o c z.]

Go complain at Yahoo. ;]

Lol, that article was hilarious.

As much as I hate FoB, I gotta give Pete mad props for not canceling any shows. I realise that it's not exactly impeding his playing to have a broken foot, but still, I give my mad props.

[MasterofOrion]

Pete is the Frontman and Bassist. I know this because im a fan.

I dont care what you guys think, I like this Band and I like emo. If you dont, I dont really care :P

[Seidenschnur]

I will admit that the article is just as much factual as it is completely in distaste for said band. The argument made throughout the article actually had a strong backing, but it conceded to low-brow, personal attacks. Although they were hilarious and quite true, a critical argument would have been made with just the facts and nothing else.

Fall Out Boy blows.

I know a bloke who claims to be that temp. Not that I don't believe him, but... y'know.
Anyway.
Never been a massive, or even a miniscule, fan of FOB but as many people have said: kudos to the guy for going on. It may not be the worse injury in the world, it certainly shouldn't effect his playing; but I have paid to see bands that have cancelled for much less.

Everyone keeps saying "I gotta give him credit for continuing the tour with an injury,", which is sort of true...

But, remember, he's getting paid a sh!t load for these shows.

[ghoulsnightout]

maybe hell get crazy with pain pills and the band will be like "woah dude your an addict..and come to think of it we hate eachother!" and break up

and at least he had the balls to keep touring.

im glad i didnt have to say it this time. remember people fallout boy is pop-punk, rites of spring is emo.

[SpooneyMallard]

It is sort of expected of these musicians now to continue touring after an injury. When pyrotechnics burned James Hetfield's arm he continued to sing for the rest of the tour, with someone else playing rhythm guitar while he recovered. Also: Travis Barker, that one guy from Linkin Park, the list goes on.

[HeavenlyVirus]

Wow. Shows his playing is shit since he managed to break his foot while doing a show. What kind of nonsense was he doing?

[randomthoughts]

You know if I was a fan of the band I would say good for him on still touring, but I'm not.

[codeezie]

i actually like how biased the articles typically are. it sets this site apart from so many other generic news sites, and in cases like this, are really entertaining.

[Cied Shredder]

Haha, I don't like people who beef bands usually but this piece of shit was quite sarcastically humurous.

Well hes kinda both, hes the face of fall out boy, cause the lead singers ugly and fat. i hate pete so much, hes a self absorbed dick. But FOBs first cd was actually decent even though i would never spend money on it. New album is a bunch of hump a monkey crap though.

Those 12 year old girls got deep pockets also if your not a 12 year old girl and go to these shows you might be a pedophile.

haha..... "more unnecessary tears..."

funny

kudos for keeping on with the show though. even though i hate his band. and their music.

The frontman isn't always the vocalist. It's the main spokesperson for the band, in this case Wentz.

anyways, the article was poorly written, but wentz is probably just using this not cancelling any tours and playing with a broken foot to try and seem tough

*doesnt buy in*

[Vicious00009]

I liked the first part of the article. Having any form of Rock and fall out boy in the same sentence is blasphemy.

[superfaligous]

when the **** did they rock?
more like whining

[alucardmik]

good on him

[grinspoon69]

he broke his foot?
that makes me smile

[Ali-b912]

how did he break his foot by jumping around. what a weak ass. Angus Young jumps onto his back head first. Hendrix would light his guitar on fire and keep playing it. Keith Moon blows up his drum kit when its like what.. 50cm away from him? breaking ur foot and playing isnt hard. with a broken leg he will stop dancing like he won the lottery when his singer sits up front whining about losing his bitch.

[6Slay6tanic6]

Quality... haha

Wow....fairplay to Pete

[bazz_aaron]

why does ug post such biased and poorly written articles. I know its linked from Yahoo but surely they shold have had the common sense to not post such a biased article

[soapalot]

Good stuff. I actually like Fall Out Boy, their outlook on music is great. I think a lot of people bash them unneccessarily

[tim311mahoney]

since when is UG putting articles from Seventeen Magazine in their news section? I feel bad for Fallout Boy because Pete Wentz makes them look really bad.

[Miquespa]

Hehe, this disgussion is pretty funny. All this "I hate emo" "I´m gonna cry to my mum" and " Pete´s gay" are amusing to me. : D
I do like falloutboy, but I´m not the one shouting their name. And what comes to the frontman -thing: I think Pete is the main songwriter for FOB. And of course, he´s basslines aren´t that complicated, but I do think that complicated bassline are for metal. X )

The song 'Layla', arguably one of Eric Clapton's most famous songs, is him "whining about how he can't get a girl". Shut up and educate yo'self, fool.

thankyou, that was just the point i was going to make. Pete Wentz isn't the frontman of the band, Patrick Stump is. Wentz is just the greasy little object of prepubescent dreams that stands there playing bass with less skill than an untrained chimpanzee.

and yes, i like fall out boy. they're in fact one of my favourite bands, but Pete Wentz is a greasy hippie who should either have a shower or **** off and work in a fast food restaurant.

am i the only one who doesn't think this is really biased? the word is misinformed. what would you do if you had to write about them. god, that would be awful. i'm slitting my wrists just thinking about it. i do however like hearing about them unintentially harming themselves. how amusing!

pete wentz is not the front man

Dude, he most of the time plays on note per bar. I don't think the lightning is about is speed than huh

I hate fall out boy, good article!

[JustinTergolek]

Pete Wentz IS the frontman of Fall Out Boy. Patrick Stump just takes on vocal duties. Its pretty obvious if any of you actually listen to them or check out their live shows.

[silverchair_89]

the emo probably enjoyed the pain

Hey boy get educated. All the bands I hate I sat myself through their CDs and researched them (yes I have entirely to much time on my hands, that's what happens when your a genius film major at NYU). Pete's just as good as any great bassist.

Check out early, early FOB.

Fall Out Boy isn't emo. There are bands that are way more emo than them. People need to learn their musical genres and stop confusing pop punk and emo. In fact, most metalheads take any lyrics that have any meaning, and call them emo, just because their music mostly has lyrics that make no sense.

and i hope someone hides his pain killers

That's the frontman, just because you aren't the lead singer doesn't mean you can't be the frontman. iron Maiden's bass player Steve Harris is their frontman, and Gene Simmons is KISS' frontman.

No... The definition of a front man is someone who "fronts" the band, who stands out front, singing.

And Steve Harris is not the front man of Iron Maiden. Bruce Dickenson is, and Paul Di'Anno was before that.

Pete is the Frontman and Bassist. I know this because im a fan.

Okay... just because you are a fan doesn't mean you can't be wrong.
All that it means if you really believe that, is that you are stupid... Like many of the Fall out Boy fans (Of course, a lot of the ones who bash Fall out Boy are just as bad, but at least to a degree I can agree with them. I'll just leave it at this: I dislike Fall Out Boy, but mainly because I hate Pete Wentz.)
