Mission Failed
Filed under: Music Minute > Pete Wentz
As of this past Wednesday, Fall Out Boy was on track to set the world record for shortest amount of time to play all of the world’s seven continents. The band and their crew made it all the way to Chile and were patiently waiting in their hotel rooms for the greenlight from organizers to proceed to the last continent on their list…Antarctica.
All FOB needed to do to get into the Guinness Book of World Records was play a gig on the continent at the end of the earth by this Thursday.
Unfortunately, the weather in unpredictable Antarctica wouldn't cooperate on Thursday. Conditions there weren't clear enough to allow for the safe arrival of the band and crew.
The band and their management made the tough decision to abort the mission.
FOB's Pete Wentz was utterly shattered by the decision to abort.
He says:
"It's an utter fucking disappointment. … It's so insane. We had this idea, and then to not be able to fulfill it is just disappointing, especially when you put it out there… It's the worst feeling I've felt in Fall Out Boy, [we were,] like, two hours away from being able to do it. … I read someone compared it to Geraldo opening Capone's vault, but it's worse than that, because, like, Capone's stuff is in there, you just can't get the light on. There's no spin for it; we got two hours away from Antarctica and we can't go."
There must be another way to get into the record books!
What should Pete and the boys do???????

BATHOG BATHOG BATHOG
first, again?
What a fug-face.
second!
fall out boy should cry about it.
Pete is a dork & a weenie.
Almost first
Isn't being the largest douchebag in the world title enough?
Oh well…Maybe next lifetime.
gang bang asslee???
third? fourth?
Pete and the boys should just try again if they really want it.
firsttttt
stupid
GO AWAY FOREVER AND TAKE ASHEY WITH THEM!!!!!!!!
FOB SUCKS ASS…..HARD!
cry about it
third?
Maybe start over but this time START from Antartica…morons…
aww that sucks
first
hate him
"There must be another way to get into the record books! "
Yeah…here's a thought…START IN FREAKING ANTARCTICA. If the weather's so unpredictable there, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that they should start there instead of end there. Morons.
he already has the worlds wierdest girlfriend
They should see how gay they can be to get into the Guinsess book of world records. That's the only way FOB will ever go down in the history books. maybe the guy who can go through the most eyeliner in an hour.
PETE IS A TOOL
IDIOTS…THEY SHOULD START IN ANTARCTICA…THEN THEY CAN TRAVEL MORE EASILY TO THE OTHER PLACES
yes because if all the members of fob died on their way to antartica because of bad weather, that would be terrible.
lame.
maybe they should've started with antartica? fucking idiots.
Start in antartica and work your way back fools. Don't let the wild card get ya!
Get a life.
Well they can start by taking this situation like real men and then get over it!!! its only a book!
Top 10?
they should tattoo 401 people in 24 hours.
oh and to the moron that said they should've started in antartica, it wouldn't have made a difference. if they can't get in because of bad weather it'd be the same if they were there first and couldn't leave. dip shit.
Who cares? What a pointless publicity stunt. Go whine about it some more.
HOW BOUT GIVING EACH OTHER A DAISY CHAIN OF BLOW JOBS ON STAGE…SURELY THAT WILL BE A FIRST. I MEAN I KNOW JIM MORRISON TRIED TO ACCOMPLISHE IT BACK IN 60'S BUT OTHER DOORS MEMBERS WOULDN'T GO ALONG.
second
They should have played Antartica FIRST - would have been so easy to avoid the disappointment.
poor guys that would rip
arent they already in for being the worst band in history?
maybe they should worry about creating good music first…
fhock i am fast. did you see the way i got first place again? cool.
could of jsut like got a hotel staff to pay to watch them play in there hotel room , but now they should try do the most gigs in a day like in L.A sunny weather and good time
M..I KNOW WHAT FOB CAN DO….THEY ALL LAY NAKED IN A CIRCLE,FACE TO THE CRITCH OF THE PERSON NEXT TO THEM AND INSERT THAT PERSONS LIMP DYCK INTO THEIR MOUTH AND START SUCKING…KEEP IT UP FOR ATLEAST 3 DAYS AND THAT SHOULD GET THEM A MENTION SOMEWHERE IN SOME RECORD BOOK…..
quit whining and blogging
FOB should put on their big girl panties and deal with it. It's fucking Antarctica, who gives a shit?
i feel bad for them because it meant so much to them, although i don't really see how playing a show in antartica, where no one lives, is such a big deal…but whatever floats your boat. too bad for them though.
Re: katie – you are the moron. if you start in antarctica and then go to the other places, you can start whenever the whether there is good.
Hmmm…maybe they should stop whining about how they can't set a useless "world record" that serves no purpose whatsoever! Or they could try setting a record for Most Money From Concerts on All Continents Donated to People Who Really Fucking Need It? That would be a good one.
Stop crying, you little bitch. Do you assholes always have to be the center of the universe? Who gives a flying fuck whether or not you play on all the goddamn continents in the shortest time span? People are literally dying on every one of those continents (ok, maybe not Antarctica) and all you can think about is setting a fucking world record? DOUCHEBAG!
Fall off the face of this earth without announcing it and wait to see if anyone cares. Oh and please take that annoying thing you call your girlfriend, putting up with her should get you nominated in the Guinness Book of World Records for having thismuch patience.
It sucks that they set a goal and could not follow through with it, but MOTHER NATURE is something you don't fuck with, and why would they bitch and put their lives at risk for some record? Maybe they should just try again down the road…..
i think they could make it in for quitting being a shitty band that only 13 year old girls like and attempt to make good music that has a melody and a some meaning behind it.
who fucking cares, falloutboy is the shittiest band out,they dont deserve a wolrd record. fuck pete wentz/\
they fail at life (: poooor steak .
They should wait til conditions are clear in Antarctica and START there. All of the other continents are go as you please (no waiting for weather conditions), so you wait until you get the OK to go there, and THEN go to the other places.
START IN ANTARCTICA!!! It *does* make sense if you think about it… If they get bad weather, then they won't have wasted all that time going around the rest of the world and being disappointed when they fail, at the end, because of the weather. Well, technically it's too late for that now, but in future they should try a different approach.
they should wait, get over there, do the show, and then fly back to the first show they did and redo it within the timeframe….hello!
They should have a freakin thought for the planet and not waste all that feul on unnecessary travel for a publicity stunt. I'm not an eco warrior or anything but I mean come on!
wasn't biggest sellout ever good enough?
Maybe he should have STARTED with Antartica. Or take a page from Brad and Ange and try for something that helps mankind
What they need to do its DO IT OVER, BUT THIS TIME ……START WITH ANTARTICA, that way they get it out of the way so that stupid continent can't fuck up their plans anymore!
they should try making good music.
here's a thought… if Antarctica is the problem, why not START there?
They should START with Antarctica, that way whenever they can get there will kick off the series of concerts. The other locations won't provide the "stopper" like Antarctica has the risk of doing.
hes getten pree fat nowadays
and theyre so fake
chances of gettin a crowd out of antarctica are slim
they prolly just saidddd the weather
i wish pete wentz would just fuck off and die.
IF THEY WERE'NT SO STUPID THEY WOULD HAVE WAITED TO THE WEATHER WAS GOOD AND THEN START THE TR11ECK IN ANTARCTICA
Dumb Fucks should have started in Antartica FIRST.
They should fly there in a helicopter, hover over where ever they have to in order for it to qualify as "Antarctica" and play a song from the 'copter!
pete should jump of a cliff…………..a jagged cliff at that
wtf is with these people who think they are meteorologists?
and btw, to everyone saying fob only has 13 year old fans, im 19 years old and have liked them since i was 14. also, 13 year old grow up, you know. unless you are talking about some eternal teens that seem to get brought up when any pop act gets brought up.
"shitty" is a very broad statement. i think bob dylan can't sing. i don't call his music shitty. however, i enjoy listening to stevie wonder and michael jackson. i also enjoy spoon and feist and many other types of music.
elitists can suck my non existent ballsac.
fall out boy should get the fuck over it.
Pete is a douch bag-his attemp to get attention failed oh so sad.
not fly around the world creating tons of carbon emissions for s tupid reason like getting in the guiness book of world records. give me a break.
It wasn't PLANNED that they were going to do this until recently.
THEREFORE STARTING THERE wasn't an option, they just figured they had done the rest of time, they might as well try for this. This is not their "life" goal, it was to bring awareness to Global Warming, which I think they have done. People are talking, that's all they want…
Keep it up!!
boo hoo hoo…who gives a rats ass….FOB should focus on doing something positive for the world rather than shamelessly promote themselves.
Uhm,
I don't know why the Wentz is all upset.
It's not like the world was actually -robbed- or anything because FOB couldn't play Antarctica, more like Antarctica was saved..
See whom can suck the most cock in the most countries? How many dicks can these EMO fucks suck? How many cocks can they fit in their mouth at once???
Maybe they should get a life. Its not the end of the world..no one died or was hurt..come one give us a break ~
Re: blake –
And chances of getting a crowd? Are you serious…
FYI, they were planning on
