If this ends up anything like "Fresh Only Bakery" then this should be interesting to watch on twitter...
Last weekend my husband and I drove to Alabama, from Florida, with my sister, who is 16, and my, six year old, son Ryan. I rescheduled my follow-up appointment with my neurosurgeon for the morning of the 28th, so that we could take the kids to the FOB / Blink show. My son and sister are Big fans of you, (your dogs,your wife,your son, your band and Clan). We literally had $150 in the bank and were seven hours from home just so the kids could see you, they think that much of you. We got there early, we were probably in the first twenty cars there, knowing that you usually come out and meet kids before the show. The kids waited and waited at the side gate for you. They saw you under a white tent taking pics with kids. My son had a fit because he was so excited to see you, yet he couldn't get to you. They thought you'd walk over. Then you guys disappeared. We waited for quite a while longer before they let us in the gates. They were still hopeful with thier magazines and cd liners in hand ... thinking he'll come out any minute .. he always does. The show starts and my son is like "where's Peter? I want to see him!". He asked the security guards and the cops to take him to you. No one would, or could help. The show went on and was over. We waited and waited for you, thinking maybe you would come out after. It was probably 11:30 and he was crying his eyes out. No sign of Peter. He had been there waiting to see you for over seven hours and was at his breaking point. We thought you'd get a kick out of meeting him too. He's really smart and loves music, more like a teenager than a little kid. He was dressed the part in a skeleton tee, studded belt with his little black converse and his gray and black plaid hoodie. So cute. He was waiting to tell you about how he named his guinea pigs after you .. well not exactly you, their names are Hemingway, Rigby and Sugar. Wonder how he come up with those? Just wanted to let you know that you missed getting to meet a really great little kid and he missed getting to meet you. A little boy who cried himself to sleep on the way home after the show because he was so disappointed.
I know you won't reply to this and you probably don't even care, but I had to say it and well.. there it is.
Ryan is a little music buff, it's something he's really into believe it or not. Have you seen the video on youtube, (Ryan meets his crush crush crush), where the little boy meets Paramore and interviews Hayley and asks her out? If you have that's Ryan and you can see there that even at four he loved music, loved bands and was able to read questions to interview the band with. I'm not bragging, I'm only trying to show that in many ways he isn't your average kid and I'm only trying tomake him happy. As his mom it's my job.
Don't get so upset and defensive about something that really had nothing to do with any of you guys.
let my lynching continue! =)
(oh, and sorry for all my mistakes --')
i waited outside for 5 hours for the band and they never came out, doesn't mean they arent dedicated, they love their fans! i mean, how many bands do the flyaway like fob?
you shouldnt really have a go at pete :/ frustrating as it may seem
jfc give him a break.
and no offense, your kid is six. SIX. i'm sure he'll be okay. there's no way he GETS the music, like REALLY GETS it. he may be upset, but not for the same reasons a 17 year old fan would. he's not old enough to understand.
ps I've never been able to afford them so I'm not saying us should, idk, I'm usually in the extremely far back nosebleed section, but I try not to get my hopes up of meeting him either.
And ps : don't you ever fucking tell me what to do,Pete Wentz! xD
Anyway~ Killer show last Saturday (West Palm Beach). (Random as hell and has nothing to do with what is at hand, though I will ask you a question soon) I was very surprised and impressed. The Tampa reported probably had something against you guys. Sort of like how I did when i first walked into the concert. I wasnt really excited to see you guys...
I loved you guys. Until Infinity on High and then your other album which I honestly dont know the name of. Explaining why and such would take way to long and you probably dont want to hear it. NEGATIVE PART OVER.
POSITIVE PART STARTING.
I loved the show. You guys were great and showed everything I use to love about you guys. I cant express the joy I felt that night watching you guys. Saturday actually means a lot to me (Same goes for I slept with Someone from Fall Out Boy and All I got was this song written about me) and when you finished the show with it a teared up a bit. I never thought I would ever see you guys play that live. Because of this whole popularity business. And the fact that you had 3 albums after that song you could have picked from.
AND. AND! Holy Shit. Dont Stop Believing. okay, Thats our senior's theme song this year. AND Its (basically) the Glee theme song. That was fucking great. Nothing makes me love a concert more than TOTAL crowd participation (in that manner. Im not making any sense).
Long story short, I was very surprised, impressed, over-joyed, brought to tears, made-to-scream and in love with the show and you guys. It was great.
ANYWAY, onto my question.
It said I had to put down 2 addresses. I only have one. It didnt except just the one so I just copied it twice. Is that ok?
I love it when Pete/ FOB does these confusing things. It makes you think...
I signed up when I heard the 'Say Now' message yestorday. I wonder what's going to happen....
its broken now!!
i hope i didnt sign my life to the devil.
this better be good
i signed up earlier today. =/
I trust you.
I've just about had it with all these mind tricks.
Why can't you ever just say something straight forward?
You just like to fuck with our heads.
And it works.
dont we love a dose of mystery
AND PETE! CAN U REPLY ME BY TWITTER PLEASE <3
I AM TALKING TO U SINCE FOUR, FIVE OR SIX MONTHS AND U NEVER REPLY TO ME :( I'M SO UNLUCKY.. WELL, TAKE CARE!
AND COME BACK TO CHILE PLEASE :(
I WANNA SEE U, ONLY ONCE ! THAT'S MY DREAM, DUDE HAHA <3
SALUDOS A BRONX, A ASH Y A HEMINGWAY !
He replied to me and it was hilarious. I was trying to be all *nice girl pats shoulder* and he was all "AWHH THNX TOTAL INTERNET HUGG!! :O"
Lol. Good luck. It'll come when you least expect it. :/
i want something to be mailed to me!!
read the comments on the blogs too, for extra mind fuckery! It was linked on the blog with the quarter that Zak cut.
hmm.
i have a feeling piece by piece the postcard shall assemble
:D
hmm what's the issue?
Love the chase.
Something to live for.
Thanks Pete
Crap.
Why when someone says, 'You probably shouldn't do this' does everyone immediately flock to do it?
(Including me just now, I'll admit)
But I'm Very curious to what this is.
~Chelsea~
Oh, well. Too late, Hopefully my trust is not misplaced.
:)
Will we figure this out soon?
~Chelsea~
yet i signed my life away to my favorite band yet again..
So. Mail me something, dammit.
what should i write there? i don't even have a P.O. box address!
i mean, i would sign up, but i guess i'm a bit of a safety freak and don't want to enter my address and phone number and all of that into some website i barely know. :/
Did you see the Muse thing yet? They were on a foreign TV show that didn't have the set-up for live performance and were so upset about being unable to play that they traded places. And nobody noticed. :D
It just gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling to see other people doing it right.
matt was amazing on drums, scratching his head halfway through the solo
:')
oh muse
maybe another part of the postcard will be posted sometime.
also. I want a post card addressed to ME from Joe haha. Are you gonna send me a post card? Cause that would make my life!
sad eh? that's all it'd take.
teh web page is titled 'are you watching closely' which i understand is something to do with The Prestige
Unless they're planning to come round to everyones house and rape us or use our showers..
Could be anything really..
Maybe just a few weird texts?
Besides the ones you get if you called the subliminal phone number in a Weekend at Pete Rose's. Because that told me before this post to go to www.intelligenceisartificial.com
haha
If my house gets broken into, I know who to blame.
Myself o.o
xXxShantellexXx
If this shit is just to mess with us then I'll hate Fall Out Boy! (I can't even do this but I'll try)
I think Pete, I trust you far too much.

the titel of the magican blog says: you're a magician not a wizard
when you google it, bingo!! ... the prestige.
no?

XD
any experts on this subject?
The habanera (from the Cuban Capital "Havana", which in Spanish is La Habana), a most popular music genre at the end of the 19th century, originated in Cuba and spread all over the Spanish colonies and subsequently to Europe. Many French musicians composed beautiful habaneras, Saint-Saëns among them. The famous aria from the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet was adapted from the habanera El Arreglito," originally composed by the Spanish musician Sebastián Yradier.[1] Bizet´s lyrics are well known by its first two lines, "L'amour est un oiseau rebelle / que nul ne peut apprivoiser".[2] Bizet used the melody in the belief that it was a folk song.

Pete,
I would like to book Fall Out Boy for a benefit concert for Invisible Children this summer. I'm part of a non-profit organization, MAJIC (www.TheMAJIC.org), run and founded by high school students. We organize and host events to benefit established charities that promote international peace. We are interested in booking Fall Out Boy, but don't know how to go about doing so. If you could respond in any way that would be a great help. Thank you.

I'm actually petrified, curiosity got the better of me and I entered the website.
I'm sorry if it makes things worse for you Pete...
and i agree with the person who said your son may not even understand the song. he is the epitome of what America's Suitehearts is about, he is a and you are making him a pawn of media hype and hollywood.
i have never met anyone famous, nor even got a head nod, and i am not upset. i had a chance to see FOB on BND and was in the pit, i was 2 feet from the band and that was awesome. Yeah, it would have been great to meet the dudes, but be real, meeting someone that high profile is a rare chance, and your son already has one.
it isn't worth breaking the bank to try and meet a celeb, its insane.
Peter Wentz, The Mind Ninja.
The sad thing is, is that I don't mind. XP
"Some of us" is FOB since they will make a new album which is more work on top of the huge tour they were just on and the one before that.. they must be exhausted.
"The Rest of us" is the fans, since a new album would be GREAT!
FOB is either going to start recording a new album or go on tour again. I doubt they would do another tour since they've done 2 in a row now so my guess is the abracadabra thing will let us know they are going to hit the studio.
Great news if Im right... which I am :)
RedHerring is a website and they have an article on a J. (John) Malone who is the Chairman of Liberty Media and apparently he has connections to Ticketmaster.
FOB has a song called "Sending Postcards From a Plane Crash" from the take this to your grave album.. they just went on tour with Blink which we all know (Travis) got in to a plane crash.
The postcard also seems to be FROM Joe and for PATRICK. Patrick is in Chicago according to the postcard and joe mentions liking something LOUD.
IDK what all this means but it may help someone else, IDK...
i think they need a huge break, and ever since Folie has come out, I've had the feeling that the album was a sort of swan song... saying good bye to the new and welcoming all the new stuff.
But their bringing out a greatest hits, further adding to my suspicions.
Oh well, I'm sorry Pete that I made it worse for you guys. I've never participated in any of your cryptic things till now, and I was hell curious...
Sorry :(
