Fall Out Boy

[brassneck]

OK, I'm sure this will be a polarizing band on this message board, but they are releasing a new album and will be touring this summer in support of it. They aren't my favorite band, but I saw them at Warped Tour in 2005 and enjoyed the experience. Anyone know their booking agent and can find out if it is a possibility?

150,000% not going to happen

[cchap6]

Fall Out Boy haters unite! I'm still trying to understand the Coachella cool vs burn-a-mule criteria:

a) Is it anti-pop music? No, witness Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Bjork as headliners.
b) Is it a Pitchfork 7.2 or higher rating? Obviously not.
c) Is it some arbitrary zeitgeist that sways in the wind like a flag on a windy Chicago day? Ding, ding, ding! I think I found a winner.

Sorry for insulting anyone's intelligence for mentioning a trendy pop-punk band at a Southern California music festival. What could I have been thinking?

No, dude it's not any off that. Fall Out Boy just sucks asss. It's just not good music pure and simple.

I disagree. But to each their own. Opinions are like assholes...everyone's got one.

I saw them at Warped Tour

that's why. This isn't warped.

[brassneck]

that's why. This isn't warped.

Against Me! played Warped Tour in 2005 as well. GV should pull them from the lineup immediately. C'mon, let's not get to elitist here.

maybe because they're this MTV soaked pop-"punk" band and would draw the wrong kind of crowd to coachella. Fallout Boy also are not very unique. They're one of a long line of shitty pop-"punk" bands. Almost every act that does coachella, even in the dance tent, are unique in some way.

[Boourns]

Except Howie Day and James Blunt.

The wrong kind of crowd? Talk about a slippery slope counter point. Next thing you know, GV will have to hire door men to make sure you're the "right kind of crowd". LOL. Your last line is also a gross overstatement - GV doesn't always pick em right.

wrong kind of crowd being 14 year olds that are annoying as shit.

I said "almost", you said always

And they all stink.

Personally, I'm more concerned about those crazy 30-something year old Bjork fans than any 14 year olds. I've heard the mosh pit can get pretty out of control during Big Time Sensuality. LOL.

ROFL HOUSE

[TheCutestBoyAlive]

They are in California late April.

[Rezzo]

HAHAHAHAHA!!! OMG!!!

[Mr.Nipples]

i pray nightly that fall out boys tour bus rolls off a cliff and torches every soul inside...i could give a fuck about karma. shitty music for shitty people.

[Matty22Fatty]

Fall Out Boy stole their sound and image from post-hardcore/punk bands like Lifetime, Texas is the Reason, Gameface, Bouncing Souls, etc. Then they wrote cheesy emo lyrics about crap, got a stylist and added lighter and poppier choruses.

This band represents everything that sucks in music...seriously...

[C DUB YA]

I would sell my tickets if it happened.

me too.

Well - you are so very wrong. No opinion needed. They belong to most horrid piece of shit music scene ever created, and I'm including Euro-trash-country-techno in this assessment, yes, they are worse than those idiots who did Cotton-Eyed Joe.

Them, MCR, All American Rejects, Panic at the shitco, Yellowcard, Hawthorn Heights,...

They are shit, shit that's eating some shit, while taking a shit and becoming even more shit, it really is amazing. Them not fitting in with Coachella has nothing to do with "cooler scene and a holier than thou" attitude you are alluding to. Coachella trys to pick artists, not just bands. Artists with talent that have something to offer, your boys in designer eyeliner have nothing to offer, other than the uber helpful advise on where to buy expensive jeans and hair product.

One day your will realize I speak the truth, C DUB has spoken words of wisdom, he has given you pearls here, you should listen. Today's Fall Out boy were yesterday's New Kids On the Block. Get some musical taste bub, you'll thank me later, when you get into 8th grade maybe.

[psychic friend]

oh tell us how you really feel now. lol

[Proadict]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fall out boy!!!!! do you want some panic at the disco?? or 30 seconds to mars!!!!???? i heard my chemical romance is gonna be addes LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[C DUB YA]

Oh I forgot Jared Leto....

don't get me started.

[Mr.Nipples]

what about the gym class heroes...theyre like a united nations of musical gayness...

[C DUB YA]

torch them as well. Them, Plain White T's and whatever else is on FUSE's heavy rotation.
